About Intercontinental Exchange
Intercontinental Exchange is a vertically integrated operator of financial exchanges and provides ancillary data products. Though the company is probably best known for its ownership of the New York Stock Exchange, which it acquired in 2013, ICE operates a large derivatives exchange, too. The company's largest commodity futures product is the ICE Brent crude futures contract. In addition to the exchanges business, which is about 54% of net revenue, Intercontinental Exchange has used a series of acquisitions to create its mortgage technology business (22% of net revenue) and fixed-income and data-services segment (24% of net revenue).

What the Analysts think about ICE
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Intercontinental Exchange stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Intercontinental Exchange stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
ICE posted record third-quarter revenue of $2.8 billion, up 15% year on year, while adjusted EPS rose 18% and adjusted operating margin reached 61%. This shows strong earnings growth across the group. (Intercontinental Exchange)
Trading activity has been exceptionally strong: third-quarter average daily volume rose 31% year on year, with particularly sharp growth in interest-rate and agricultural contracts. Higher market activity is supporting ICE’s exchange franchise and transaction revenues. (Business Wire)
Fixed Income and Data Services offers a steadier growth engine, with third-quarter recurring revenue up 9% year on year. ICE also raised its 2026 recurring-revenue growth outlook for the segment to 8%. (Intercontinental Exchange)
Mortgage Technology remains a relatively sluggish part of the business: third-quarter revenue grew just 4% year on year, and reported operating margin was only 2%, despite a much higher adjusted margin. That gap highlights the drag from costs and adjustments in the segment. (Intercontinental Exchange)
ICE had $23.3 billion of debt at the end of September and plans to close its all-cash MarketAxess acquisition in early 2027. The added financing burden makes deleveraging an important execution risk. (Intercontinental Exchange)
New perpetual-futures products from crypto platforms could intensify competition for established exchanges, while a more permissive regulatory stance adds uncertainty. Reuters reported that investors were already weighing this threat to incumbent exchange operators. (Reuters)
