Q1 2026 revenue increased to US$154.9M, client assets reached US$58.9B, and funded accounts grew to 1.2828M. At the same time, CSRC penalties of about RMB 411M led to a net loss of US$26.9M and reduced cash to US$598.1M.

Prior quarters, such as Q3 and Q4 2025, showed strong profitability and expanding balances, with total client assets reaching US$60.8B.

8 terms
ads financial
"Net loss per ADS (1 ADS represents 15 Class A ordinary shares) – diluted was US$0.151"
Ads are paid promotional messages a company places across media — online, on TV, in print, or on social platforms — to attract customers, explain products, or shape public perception. For investors, ads matter because they drive sales growth, affect how much a company must spend to win customers, and influence brand strength and long-term value. Ads can also create regulatory or reputational risk if claims are misleading, which can affect profits and stock price.
non-gaap financial
"Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech was US$23.8 million"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
View in glossary
share repurchase program financial
"board of directors has approved a share repurchase program of up to US$50 million"
A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.
twap technical
"alongside the TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) order function for options"
TWAP (time-weighted average price) is the average price of a security over a specified time window, calculated so each moment in that window counts equally. Traders use TWAP as a benchmark and execution guideline for spreading large buy or sell orders to avoid moving the market; comparing a trade’s result to the TWAP helps investors judge whether the execution was efficient or expensive, like slicing an order into even pieces over time to stay discreet.
spac financial
"We also completed two major U.S. SPAC IPOs, namely Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. V"
A special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) is a company formed specifically to raise money through an initial public offering (IPO) with the goal of buying or merging with an existing private company. For investors, a SPAC offers a way to invest in a potential future business without initially knowing which company it will acquire, making it a way to access new investment opportunities that might otherwise be difficult to invest in directly.
View in glossary
ipo financial
"We underwrote 10 Hong Kong IPOs, including industry-leading AI players"
An initial public offering (IPO) is the process by which a private company sells its shares to the public for the first time, making its ownership available on the stock market. This allows the company to raise money from a wide range of investors to fund growth or other goals. For investors, an IPO offers a chance to buy into a company early in its public journey, potentially benefiting if the company grows in value.
View in glossary
esop financial
"In our ESOP business, we added 42 new clients in the first quarter"
An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) is a program that gives employees ownership shares in their company, often as part of their benefits package. It acts like a company-sponsored savings plan, allowing workers to have a stake in the company's success, which can boost motivation and loyalty. For investors, ESOPs can influence company decisions and stock value, making them an important aspect of corporate ownership and governance.
rsu financial
"Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech, which excludes share-based compensation"
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation, usually with certain restrictions or conditions, such as remaining with the company for a set period. When these restrictions lift, employees receive actual shares that they can sell or hold. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock supply and reflect the company's commitment to attracting and retaining talent.

SINGAPORE, June 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UP Fintech Holding Limited (NASDAQ: TIGR) (“UP Fintech” or the “Company”), a leading online brokerage firm focusing on global investors, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Mr. Wu Tianhua, Chairman and CEO of UP Fintech stated: “In the first quarter, we continued to expand our user base and client assets, while further optimizing our comprehensive product offerings. Supported by these solid fundamentals, both our topline and operating performance have achieved notable year-over-year growth. Our total revenue for the first quarter reached US$154.9 million, representing a 26.3% increase year over year. Net loss and non-GAAP net loss attributable to UP Fintech for the quarter were $26.9 million and $23.8 million, versus net income of $30.4 million and $36.0 million in the same quarter last year. Recently on May 22, the Beijing Bureau of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) issued administrative penalties and ordered the confiscation of illegal gains against certain subsidiaries of the Company, with a total amount of approximately RMB 411 million (equivalent to roughly $59.7 million). The penalties stemmed from certain subsidiaries’ unlicensed cross-border securities business and illegal activities relating to the fund and futures business in mainland China. The Company sincerely accepts the penalty and has recognized it as a subsequent significant event for the first quarter. Considering the Company’s overall profitability and cash flow position, this one-off expense will not have a material adverse impact on our business operations or long-term development.

“In the first quarter, we added 28,900 new funded clients, with great majority of which came from Singapore and Hong Kong markets. Our total funded accounts reached 1,282,800 at quarter end, representing an 11.3% year-over-year increase. We continued to see solid net asset inflows, which amounted to $2.9 billion in the first quarter. It marks the first time in our history that quarterly net asset inflow above $2 billion from consolidated retail accounts, further demonstrating solid progress delivered by our client quality focused strategy. The overall market trended downward in the first quarter, driven by the pullbacks across financials, technology and consumer discretionary sectors. This caused $4.9 billion mark to market losses in client assets, led our total client assets down 3.2% quarter on quarter, though it still achieved a solid 28.4% year over year growth to reach $58.9 billion at quarter end. Nasdaq has since staged a rebound in the second quarter, and all mark to market losses on client assets recorded in the first quarter have been fully recovered on a quarter-to-date basis.

“We continued optimizing products and elevating user experience. This quarter, we upgraded Tiger AI to a Multi-Agent structure, splitting functions like search, analysis, forecasting and risk control into standalone agents for more accurate outputs. In addition, we launched the Futures-focused Agent in the first quarter, which greatly improves accuracy and practicality in future-related inquiries and effectively lifts user satisfaction with Tiger AI’s futures service capabilities. Also, beyond its original dual-model setup, Tiger AI has now integrated with the Claude model, evolving into a triple-model intelligent assistant. Additionally, we further expanded our derivatives trading offerings by officially launching Hong Kong index options trading, alongside the TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) order function for options.

“Our corporate business continued to perform well in the first quarter of 2026. We underwrote 10 Hong Kong IPOs, including industry-leading AI players “MiniMax” and “Zhipu AI”. We also completed two major U.S. SPAC IPOs, namely Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. V and KPET Ultra Paceline Corp. Additionally, investor demands for Hong Kong IPO subscriptions remained strong, the total subscription amount on the Tiger platform has exceeded HK$1 trillion year-to-date in 2026. In our ESOP business, we added 42 new clients in the first quarter, bringing our aggregate ESOP client count to 790 as of March 31, 2026.

“To demonstrate our confidence in the Company's long-term growth prospects and our commitment to delivering shareholder value, our board of directors has approved a share repurchase program of up to US$50 million, to be implemented over a 12-month period from June 1, 2026.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating our business, we consider and use non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech and non-GAAP net loss or income per ADS - diluted as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We define non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech as net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech excluding share-based compensation. Non-GAAP net loss or income per ADS - diluted is non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech divided by the weighted average number of diluted ADSs.

We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech enables our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' assessment of our operating performance.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expenses that affect our operations. Share-based compensation has been and may continue to be incurred in our business and are not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP financial information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to total operating costs and expenses, net loss or income attributable to ordinary shareholders of UP Fintech or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review these historical non-GAAP financial measures in light of the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing our data comparatively. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
