"FXCM delivered strong results in 2013 with revenue growth of 16% and EBITDA growth of 40%" said Drew Niv, Chief Executive Officer of FXCM. "We delivered 40% net EBITDA margin, a solid improvement from the 34% we delivered in 2012" Niv continued.
"While the latter half of 2013 was a more muted trading environment, we expect a number of our organic initiatives to bear fruit in 2014 even if trading conditions do not pick up,” Niv added.
Subsequent to year end, FXCM, through affiliates, acquired certain assets and liabilities of Infinium Capital Holdings LLC and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Infinium”), an electronic market maker in the commodities and foreign exchange trading sectors. The purchase price included approximately $11.9 million owed by Infinium to FXCM pursuant to certain senior secured notes issued by Infinium. The acquisition is intended to broaden FXCM’s subsidiary Lucid Markets Trading Limited ("Lucid”) into a broader array of financial instruments and provide more robust connectivity to various financial exchanges. FXCM shall hold a 50.1% interest and the principals of Lucid will hold a 49.9% interest in the new venture.
