Robinhood Markets reported significant growth in its August 2026 operating metrics, with funded customers increasing to 28.6 million, marking a rise of 120,000 from July and 1.9 million year-over-year. Total platform assets reached $383.7 billion, an 8% increase from the previous month and a 26% increase from the same time last year.
Despite the overall growth, trading activity varied: equity notional volumes rose to $335.4 billion, up 68% year-over-year, while options contracts traded decreased 10% sequentially to 292.5 million, despite being up 50% year-over-year. Margin balances climbed 4% from July to $21.5 billion, a 72% year-over-year increase. Net deposits fell to $4 billion from $5.6 billion in July.
Transaction-based revenues in Q2 rose 44% year-over-year to $776 million, representing 59% of total revenues. Analysts indicate that while the growth in assets and customer engagement supports Robinhood’s earnings outlook, weaknesses in options and event-contract volumes could lead to revenue fluctuations in the near term.
