Summary
Summary of the 8-K filed July 26, 2023. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
CME Group Inc. filed an 8-K report on July 26, 2023, primarily announcing its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
The report incorporates by reference a press release (Exhibit 99.1) that details these results. Investors should note that while GAAP results are provided, the company also presents non-GAAP measures for net income and earnings per share. Management believes these non-GAAP figures offer valuable supplemental information for assessing financial and business trends and comparability with prior periods, though they should be considered alongside, not as a substitute for, GAAP figures.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their GAAP equivalents is included in the press release as required by Regulation G. While the specific financial figures are not detailed within the 8-K text itself, the filing signals the release of the company's quarterly performance. Investors are encouraged to review the attached press release for detailed financial performance, including key metrics, revenue drivers, and profitability for the second quarter of 2023.
