Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 5, 2026, Tradeweb Markets Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference, announcing financial results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On February 5, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a share repurchase program with an indefinite term under which the Company may purchase up to $500 million of its Class A common stock (the “2026 Share Repurchase Program”) once the Company's existing $300.0 million share repurchase program (the "2022 Share Repurchase Program") has been exhausted. As of February 5, 2026, $23.2 million remained available for repurchase pursuant to the 2022 Share Repurchase Program.
Pursuant to the 2026 Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase its Class A common stock from time to time, in amounts, at prices and at such times as it deems appropriate, subject to market conditions and other considerations. The Company may make repurchases in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, through accelerated repurchase programs (including through the use of derivatives), pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or through enhanced open-market repurchases (eOMR). The 2026 Share Repurchase Program will be conducted in compliance with applicable legal requirements and shall be subject to market conditions and other factors.
The manner, timing and amount of any purchase will be based on an evaluation of market conditions, stock price and other factors. The 2026 Share Repurchase Program has no termination date, may be suspended, amended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of Class A common stock.
