Q1/2026: Good Start to the Year – Proven Business Model in Volatile Times, Structural Growth as Expected


Deutsche Börse Group has just published its quarterly statement Q1/2026. Please scroll down for the link to the entire report.

Overview of the results:

  • Net revenue without treasury result rose by 12 percent to €1,434 million, driven by continued structural growth and geopolitical tensions in March.
  • As the headwind from the treasury result subsided, growth in net revenue including treasury result accelerated to 9 percent. These amounted to €1,638 million.
  • EBITDA excluding the treasury result increased by 18 percent to €803 million, underscoring the significant economies of scale.
  • EBITDA including treasury result rose by 10 percent to a record €1,007 million.
  • Based on the good start to the year, we confirm our guidance for 2026.
  • Jens Schulte, Chief Financial Officer of Deutsche Börse Group, commented on the quarterly results as follows: “The first quarter was marked by high volatility and geopolitical uncertainty. Our business model has once again impressively demonstrated its strength and scalability. Coupled with continued structural growth, we have achieved a strong operational performance. We again ensured stability and transparency in the market when they were most urgently needed. This demonstrates once more that we, as a central pillar of the capital market, can be relied upon. This success is a team effort and a merit of our committed employees worldwide. With this good start to the year, we are fully on track to achieve our ambitious goals for the full year.”
