Frequently Asked Questions

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to disclose the unaudited Q2 2024 Order Routing Public Reports for Robinhood's broker-dealer subsidiaries, Robinhood Financial LLC (RHF) and Robinhood Securities, LLC (RHS), as required by SEC Rule 606(a).

No, these are subsidiary-level reports focused on order routing and do not present Robinhood's consolidated financial results. For consolidated financial performance, investors should refer to Robinhood's Forms 10-Q and 10-K.

Payment for Order Flow (PFOF) is a practice where market makers or exchanges pay brokers for directing customer orders to them. The 606-Reports required by this filing do present some of the PFOF received from venues to which orders were routed, as mandated by the rule.
