Futu claims its Hong Kong users accounted for more than 40% of the jurisdiction’s adult population, according to the firm, which added an average HK user spent approximately half an hour on the Futubull app each trading day.

Nasdaq-listed Futu Holdings Limited, the parent company of digital brokerage Moomoo, has reported US$222.6 million (HK$1.75 billion) total revenues, and US$87.7 million (HK$688.5 million) non-GAAP adjusted net income in Q2 2022.

The earnings report reveals that the number of users of the Moomoo and Futubull brokerage brands have increased by 20% YoY to 18.6 million.

Leaf Hua Li, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Futu, said: “Approximately 90% of our newly acquired paying clients in the second quarter were from the United States, Hong Kong SAR, Singapore, and Australia markets, compared with 80% in the previous quarter. Our international expansion was sustained by catering unmet and diverse needs from global investors.”

“Our corporate and institutional services business and wealth management business both posted a strong performance in the second quarter as we commit ourselves to relentless product and service expansion driven by technology and operational excellence, together with a well-established market presence worldwide.”
