Analyst projections of the future price of Cmc Markets stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
FY2026 net operating income rose 15% to £392.6 million and profit before tax increased 20% to £101.3 million. Earnings per share and the dividend also grew, showing that stronger income translated into improved shareholder returns. (CMC Markets)
CMC’s Australian stockbroking business delivered record net operating income of A$140.3 million, up 32%, alongside growth in client activity and assets under administration. This gives the group a growing earnings stream beyond leveraged trading. (CMC Markets)
CMC says it now powers more than 300 B2B partnerships, and its ASB and Westpac integrations are approaching launch. Those bank relationships could bring the platform substantial customer reach and support further growth in partner income. (CMC Markets)
Net trading revenue, about three-quarters of FY2026 net operating income, benefited from elevated client activity and sharp market moves. If markets become quieter and trading slows, this revenue stream could weaken. (CMC Markets)
Operating expenses rose 15% to £288.8 million in FY2026, including a £5.2 million Australian remediation provision. FY2027 cost guidance of about £280 million excludes variable remuneration, so continued investment and compliance costs could weigh on profit. (CMC Markets)
CMC faces an Australian class action over its historical retail CFD and binary-options business, and the company says it cannot reliably estimate the financial impact. An adverse outcome could therefore create an uncertain liability. (London Stock Exchange)
