Plus500 (LON:PLUS) generated $209.3 million in revenue in the second quarter of 2025, ending on 30 June, as customer deposits on the platform remained strong at $1.5 billion during the three-month period.
For the first half of the year, the broker generated $415.1 million in revenue. It clarified that non-over-the-counter (OTC) revenue made up around 13 per cent of the total, mainly due to its move into the US futures market.
Strong Figures for Another Quarter
Customer deposits totalled $1.16 billion in Q1, taking the H1 figure to $3.1 billion – a record for the company.
Announced today (Monday), the broker’s latest quarterly revenue rose 15 per cent from the same three months of the previous year. The figure also showed a slight rise of 1.7 per cent from the first quarter of the current year.
The company’s quarterly EBITDA was $91.3 million, a 12 per cent increase from Q2 2024. However, this was slightly lower than the $93.8 million reported in the first three months of 2025. The EBITDA margin stood at 44 per cent.
