Robinhood Posts Record $1.31 Billion Q2 Revenue as Equities and Options Offset 38% Crypto Drop

3 articles · Updated · Yahoo Finance · Aug 11

Summary

  • Q2 revenue rose 32% to a record $1.31 billion, underscoring Robinhood’s shift from a trading-led app toward a broader financial-services platform.
  • Equities revenue jumped 95% and options rose 29%, while event-contract revenue reached $156 million—10 times higher—more than offsetting a 38% decline in crypto revenue.
  • 28.4 million funded customers and 29.9 million investment accounts helped lift average revenue per user 24% to $187 as Robinhood focused more on monetizing existing clients than simply adding accounts.
  • Banking, credit, subscriptions, advisory offerings, tokenized assets and AI investing tools are central to that strategy, with prediction markets also seen as a way to deepen engagement and extend growth beyond trading cycles.
