[The performance of listed futures companies in the first three quarters increased, and the differentiated transformation of the industry accelerated] October 31st, this week, the third quarter reports of four A-share listed futures companies in 2026 were disclosed. Data show that in the third quarter, the performance of the four companies was somewhat differentiated. Only Nanhua Futures achieved year-on-year growth in operating income and net profit attributable to the parent company. However, judging from the overall performance in the first three quarters, the operating income and net profit attributable to the parent company of the four futures companies both achieved year-on-year growth, and the overall operations of the A-share listed futures companies maintained a growth trend. Industry insiders believe that the expansion of futures market transactions, the continued growth of customer rights and the continued entry of institutional funds have provided strong support for the development of the industry. Looking forward to the whole year, the performance of the futures industry is expected to maintain positive growth. However, affected by factors such as business structure, market fluctuations and operating models, the performance differentiation trend of futures companies may continue. At the same time, as the demand for industrial hedging increases and the trend of institutionalization further deepens, the differentiated transformation of futures companies will also usher in new development opportunities.
