FINANCIAL REVIEW
- First quarter 2026 net revenue was $1.4 billion, reflecting 14% growth versus the prior year period. Organic net revenue growth was 13%.
- Solutions revenue was $1.1 billion in the first quarter of 2026, up 14% on both a reported and organic basis versus the prior year period, reflecting strong growth across Financial Technology and Capital Access Platforms. Financial Technology revenue growth was 20% year-over-year, or 18% on an organic basis, and Capital Access Platforms revenue growth was 11% year-over-year on a reported basis, or 10% on an organic basis.
- ARR was $3.2 billion as of the first quarter of 2026, growing 13% year-over-year on a reported basis, or 12% year-over-year on an organic basis. Financial Technology ARR growth was 18%, or 16% on an organic basis, and Capital Access Platforms ARR growth was 9%, or 7% on an organic basis.
- Market Services net revenue was $317 million in the first quarter of 2026, up 13% versus the prior year period, or 10% on an organic basis.
- First quarter 2026 GAAP operating expenses were $750 million, an increase of 9% versus the prior year quarter. The increase in the first quarter was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs and increased general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower merger and strategic initiatives expense and regulatory expense.
- First quarter 2026 non-GAAP operating expenses were $608 million, an increase of 10% versus the prior year quarter, or 8% on an organic basis. The organic increase in the quarter reflects higher compensation and benefits costs and increased investments in people and technology to drive long-term growth, partially offset by lower regulatory expense.
- Cash flow from operations was $689 million in the first quarter, enabling the return of capital through Nasdaq’s efficient capital allocation framework. In the first quarter of 2026, the company returned $153 million to shareholders through dividends and $548 million through repurchases of common stock. As of March 31, 2026, there was $2.9 billion remaining under the board authorized share repurchase program.
2026 EXPENSE AND TAX GUIDANCE UPDATE6
- The company is updating its 2026 non-GAAP operating expense guidance to a range of $2.485 billion to $2.545 billion. The company is maintaining its 2026 non-GAAP tax rate guidance in the range of 22.5% to 24.5%.
STRATEGIC AND BUSINESS UPDATES
- Financial Technology delivered strong revenue and ARR growth with record first quarter annualized contract value (ACV) bookings. In the first quarter, FinTech revenue increased 20% compared to the prior year period, or 18% on an organic basis, with 16% organic ARR growth. ACV bookings4 increased more than 50% compared to the prior year period with cloud-based solutions accounting for 80% of ACV bookings. FinTech signed 64 new clients, 1 cross-sell, and 85 upsells in the first quarter. First quarter highlights included:
- Financial Crime Management Technology continued to drive growth with strong sales execution, strategic partnerships and AI-driven innovation. Nasdaq Verafin added 58 new small-and-medium bank clients during the quarter, representing a 24% increase in new ACV bookings for SMBs over the prior year period. The subdivision had continued momentum with enterprise clients, signing two renewals and one expansion during the quarter, as well as a new Tier 1 cross-sell and an expansion signed early in the second quarter. Nasdaq Verafin's Agentic AI Workforce is gaining traction, with more than 500 clients leveraging the first agents in production.
- Regulatory Technology had strong sales momentum and launched new AI capabilities in Surveillance. The subdivision added 2 new clients and 58 upsells in the first quarter, benefiting from the industry shift towards Always-On markets, and improving regulatory clarity in the U.S. and Europe, and investment in infrastructure modernization. AxiomSL had 1 new client and 26 upsells in the quarter, including a Tier 2 bank and a leading digital bank. AxiomSL signings in the quarter represent more than double the total ACV bookings compared to the prior year period with approximately 90% of ACV bookings being cloud deployments. Surveillance added 1 new client and 32 upsells in the quarter, reflecting growing demand related to Always-On markets and crypto surveillance services. Surveillance is expanding its AI capabilities with the recently announced Calibration Copilot and the planned second quarter release of the GenAI platform extension.

In the first quarter, the subdivision signed 5 new clients, including 1 cross-sell, and 26 upsells.

Market Technology signed a new deal for a cloud hosted trading solution to provide managed services for the trading of tokenized receivables.
- Financial Crime Management Technology continued to drive growth with strong sales execution, strategic partnerships and AI-driven innovation. Nasdaq Verafin added 58 new small-and-medium bank clients during the quarter, representing a 24% increase in new ACV bookings for SMBs over the prior year period. The subdivision had continued momentum with enterprise clients, signing two renewals and one expansion during the quarter, as well as a new Tier 1 cross-sell and an expansion signed early in the second quarter. Nasdaq Verafin's Agentic AI Workforce is gaining traction, with more than 500 clients leveraging the first agents in production.
- Index had 14% revenue growth, demonstrating its ability to deliver inflows in a volatile market environment. Index had net inflows of $6 billion in the first quarter and $79 billion over the last twelve months. End-of-period ETP AUM was $836 billion and average ETP AUM in the first quarter reached a new record of $877 billion. During the quarter, Nasdaq launched 31 new products, including 11 in the institutional insurance annuity space and 12 international products. Product innovation remains a key growth driver, with products launched over the past five years accounting for 46% of net inflows over the last twelve months.
- Nasdaq is expanding access to the Nasdaq-100 with new partnerships with BlackRock and State Street, while maintaining a valuable, longstanding partnership with Invesco. As demand for Nasdaq-100 exposure continues to grow globally, Nasdaq is focused on extending reach and deepening institutional access by working with a select set of partners in key markets. Expanding access to the Nasdaq-100 supports investors by improving the efficiency, liquidity, and availability of index-linked exposure across markets and product types. Nasdaq’s pricing terms related to the index license for these new U.S.-listed Nasdaq-100 exchange-traded funds will be consistent with that of Invesco QQQ.
- Nasdaq is advancing the transparency of private markets with the launch of Nasdaq Private Capital Indexes. This new suite of indexes are designed to enable institutional investors and consultants to benchmark performance, analyze exposure, and navigate private markets. Nasdaq Private Capital Indexes are constructed from more than 14,000 institutional private market funds representing over $11.4 trillion of global AUM sourced from eVestment’s LP reported data set.
- Nasdaq extended its listing leadership welcoming 7 of the top 10 largest operating company IPOs in the first quarter. In total, 15 operating companies raised over $5 billion in proceeds in the U.S. listings franchise. Nasdaq achieved a 71% win rate across eligible U.S. operating companies, direct listings, and SPAC business combinations. Early in the second quarter, the U.S. listings franchise welcomed Arxis and Kailera Therapeutics, two of the largest IPOs of the second quarter to date.
- Market Services delivered record quarterly net revenues supported by record market volumes and new product innovation. Nasdaq achieved record U.S. cash equities and U.S equity options volumes, benefitting from record industry volumes. Index options revenue more than doubled year-over-year and European cash equities growth benefited from elevated volumes. Nasdaq’s Closing Cross set new first quarter records across revenue, volume, and notional value traded during the February Index rebalancing and March Triple Witching events. Nasdaq continued its product innovation with the launch of short‑dated single‑stock options with Monday and Wednesday expirations for a limited cohort of equities and by filing a proposal with the SEC to list and trade Outcome‑Related Options tied to the Nasdaq‑100.
- Nasdaq continues to advance the modernization of markets through its Always‑On market initiative. The SEC approved Nasdaq’s proposal to enable tokenized equity settlement, designed to enhance market liquidity and collateral mobility while maintaining the trust and investor protections of highly regulated public markets. Nasdaq also progressed its tokenization efforts with an equity token design proposal aimed at strengthening the connection between issuers and investors by modernizing governance, transparency, and shareholder engagement. Early in the second quarter, the SEC approved Nasdaq’s proposal for 23/5 trading. Nasdaq plans to go live with 23/5 trading on December 6, 2026, broadening global investor access to U.S. equities.
_________________
1 Represents revenue less transaction-based expenses.
2 Organic change is calculated by removing the impacts of changes in foreign exchange rates, acquisitions and divestitures.
3 Solutions revenue and Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) constitutes revenue and ARR from our Capital Access Platforms and Financial Technology segments as well as revenue and ARR from our Solovis business which was sold in October 2025. Solovis revenues and ARR were previously included in our Capital Access Platforms segment, and have been reclassified into “Other” for all prior periods presented.
4 ARR for a given period is the current annualized value derived from subscription contracts with a defined contract value. This excludes contracts that are not recurring, are one-time in nature or where the contract value fluctuates based on defined metrics. For AxiomSL and Calypso recurring revenue contracts, the amount included in ARR is consistent with the amount that we invoice the customer during the current period. Additionally, for AxiomSL and Calypso recurring revenue contracts that include annual values that increase over time, we include in ARR only the annualized value of components of the contract that are considered active as of the date of the ARR calculation. We do not include the future committed increases in the contract value as of the date of the ARR calculation. ACV Bookings for our Financial Technology segment excluding Financial Crime Management Technology refers to the maximum annualized committed contract value at the time of signature, excluding one-time fees and not accounting for initial discounts. For Financial Crime Management Technology, ACV bookings is calculated by averaging the total contract value over the contract term, including fixed increases. ARR and ACV are supplemental metrics to help evaluate the performance of the business. These measures are not a replacement for, and should be viewed independently of, U.S. GAAP revenue and deferred revenue as they are performance metrics, and are not intended to be combined with any of these items. ARR and ACV are not a forecast, and the active contracts at the end of a reporting period used in calculating these measures may or may not be extended or renewed by our customers. There is no U.S. GAAP measure comparable to ARR or ACV. As these metrics do not have any standardized definition they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies and should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue and are not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those items.
5 Refer to our reconciliations of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating income, operating expenses and organic impacts included in the attached schedules.
6 U.S. GAAP operating expense and tax rate guidance are not provided due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain amounts due to a variety of factors including the unpredictability in the movement in foreign currency rates, as well as future charges or reversals outside of the normal course of business.

NON-GAAP INFORMATION
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Nasdaq also discloses certain non-GAAP results of operations, including, but not limited to, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP operating income, and non-GAAP operating expenses, that include certain adjustments or exclude certain charges and gains that are described in the reconciliation tables of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP information provided at the end of this release. Management uses this non-GAAP information internally, along with U.S. GAAP information, in evaluating our performance and in making financial and operational decisions. We believe our presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and supplemental data relating to our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we believe the presentation of these measures is useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of results as the items described below in the reconciliation tables do not reflect ongoing operating performance.
These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, U.S. GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate such measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for our operating results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We recommend investors review the U.S. GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. When viewed in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide greater transparency and a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than U.S. GAAP measures alone.
We understand that analysts and investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as those noted above, to assess operating performance. We use these measures because they highlight trends more clearly in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on U.S. GAAP financial measures, since these measures eliminate from our results specific financial items that have less bearing on our ongoing operating performance.
Organic revenue and expense growth, organic change and organic impact are non-GAAP measures that reflect adjustments for: (i) the impact of period over period changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and (ii) the revenue, expenses and operating income associated with acquisitions and divestitures for the twelve month period following the date of the acquisition or divestiture and (iii) the impact of AxiomSL on-premises contracts for ratable recognition in comparable periods to align with current period presentation. Reconciliations of these measures are described within the body of this release or in the reconciliation tables at the end of this release.
Foreign exchange impact: In countries with currencies other than the U.S. dollar, revenue and expenses are translated using monthly average exchange rates. Certain discussions in this release isolate the impact of year-over-year foreign currency fluctuations to better measure the comparability of operating results between periods. Operating results excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations are calculated by translating the current period’s results by the prior period’s exchange rates.
Restructuring program: In the fourth quarter of 2023, following the closing of the Adenza acquisition, our management approved, committed to and initiated a restructuring program to optimize our efficiencies as a combined organization. We initiated the program upon the acquisition of Adenza and further expanded the program in the fourth quarter of 2024 to accelerate our momentum and further optimize our efficiencies (efficiency program). We have incurred costs principally related to employee-related costs, contract terminations, asset impairments and other related costs and expect to incur additional costs in these areas in an effort to accelerate efficiencies through location strategy and enhanced AI capabilities. Actions taken as part of this program were completed as of December 31, 2025, while certain costs are being recognized in the first half of 2026. We expect to achieve benefits primarily in the form of expense synergies. Costs related to the Adenza restructuring program are recorded as “restructuring charges” in our condensed consolidated statements of income. We exclude charges associated with this program for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures as they are not reflective of ongoing operating performance or comparisons in Nasdaq's performance between periods.
