Shortcut’s reasoning.

Issuer monthly data (Jul, Aug, Sep 1-24): options ~906M contracts (+17% Q/Q), equity notional ~$998B (+4%), event contracts ~16.3B (+20%); crypto App notional ~$20B; take rates held near 1H26 levels (mgmt: July take rates similar to Q2).

NII ~$415M: margin book avg ~$21.5B at ~4.55% (Fed +25bp Sep-16), sweep/cash yields flat, securities lending net negative in August (-$8M) -> -$11M for the quarter.

Revenue $1,415M is ~1.2% below consensus $1,431M (crypto and securities lending below Street line items), but opex $768M (Adj. OpEx & SBC $703M, consistent with lowered FY26 outlook) and a 17% ETR give GAAP NI $534M.

On the record.
