Gebbia, CEO of Siebert. "Revenue increased significantly year-over-year, supported by growth across stock borrow/stock loan, investment banking, wealth management and advisory services. We advanced our platform capabilities, wealth management reached new milestones and investment banking created new opportunities for clients and issuers. Our work with tZERO, Streamex and Kakao Pay Securities also moves Siebert into the next phase of market access, connecting trusted brokerage infrastructure with tokenized products and global markets." "Second-quarter revenue growth reflected stronger performance across several business lines, including stock borrow/stock loan, investment banking and wealth management," said Andrew Reich, CFO of Siebert. "The year-over-year comparison also benefited from the prior-year impact of unrealized and realized losses on an equity security investment, which materially affected the second quarter of 2025. We narrowed our operating loss, while we continued to invest in personnel, technology, distribution and new business infrastructure. Our focus remains on disciplined expense management and converting these investments into durable earnings power." &#x2A;Refer to Siebert’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, including Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for additional detail. Results for the quarter include approximately $1.5 million of settlement-related expense. &#x2A;&#x2A;The year-over-year comparison was significantly affected by prior-year realized and unrealized losses of approximately $6.8 million related to an equity security investment during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
