EToro Group reported fourth-quarter net contribution of $227 million and GAAP net income of $69 million, beating analyst estimates of $0.64 per share with $0.71 actual.
Shares rose as much as 19% on the day as the Israel-based trading platform outperformed crypto-focused rivals Robinhood and Coinbase, both of which posted weaker-than-expected results.
Full-year 2025 net contribution reached $868 million, up 10% from $788 million in 2024. GAAP net income for the year rose 12% to $216 million, while assets under administration grew 11% year-over-year to $18.5 billion.
Crypto Weakness, Commodities Surge
Fourth-quarter cryptocurrency trading volume fell to $3.59 billion, down from $5.8 billion in the same period the year before - a 38% decline. The shortfall was offset by increased equities and commodities activity as investors rotated toward higher-volatility assets.
CEO Yoni Assia said on an analyst call that some cryptocurrency users had begun shifting to gold and silver trading.
"I do think there's somewhat of a convergence from crypto, which now has lower volatility, to gold, silver and other commodities that have higher volatility," Assia said.

Weak January Data Tempers Outlook
Despite the strong annual print, early 2026 data shows continued softening in cryptocurrency activity. January cryptocurrency trade count fell 50% year-over-year, and the average invested amount per cryptocurrency trade dropped 34% to $182.
Total January trades across all asset classes reached 74 million, up 55% year-over-year, with total money transfers rising 68% - suggesting users shifted activity rather than abandoned the platform.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter declined 19% year-over-year to $87 million, reflecting higher product investment costs. The company announced a $100 million increase to its share repurchase program, with approximately $50 million in accelerated buybacks planned.
EToro ended the quarter with $1.3 billion in cash and short-term investments and 3.81 million funded accounts.
