BGC Group (BGC) beats Q2 2026 estimates as FMX hits record 42% share
As seen on the 24/7 Wall St. homepage on July 30, 2026.
BGC's electronic Treasury platform FMX grabbed a record 42% market share as the brokerage beat earnings and revenue estimates on broad-based strength across all five asset classes, with management now guiding Q3 results above year-ago levels and eyeing a prediction market partnership with Fanatics as a growth play.

BGC Group reported Q2 2026 earnings per share of $0.35, topping the consensus estimate of $0.335 by about 4.5%. Revenue came in at $845.5 million against an estimate of $812.8 million, a beat of roughly 4%, and management said the outperformance was driven by broad-based strength across all five of the firm's asset classes rather than any single area.
The standout detail was FMX, BGC's electronic Treasury trading platform, which captured a record 42% market share in the quarter. That milestone matters because FMX is widely watched as a bellwether for BGC's long-term push into electronic markets, where margins tend to be higher than in voice brokerage.

Looking ahead, management guided Q3 results above year-ago levels. BGC also disclosed it is exploring a prediction market partnership with Fanatics, a move that would represent a meaningful diversification into a fast-growing corner of financial markets. The company's recent EPS trend shows consistent beats dating back to Q3 2024, with Q1 2026's $0.41 standing as the high-water mark over that stretch.
