Hantec Markets Ltd, the London-based CFD and forex broker, reported a modest revenue decline for the year ended 31 December 2025, with turnover falling to £6.19 million from £6.21 million in 2024—a decrease of 0.3%. The company swung to an operating loss of £7,726, compared with an operating profit of £82,362 in the prior year.

  • Revenue: £6.19 million (-0.3% year-over-year)
  • Operating Loss: £7,726 (vs. £82,362 profit in 2024)
  • Net Assets: £5.5 million (unchanged from 2024)
  • Cash Balances: £4.9 million

Despite the profitability contraction, Hantec Markets Ltd maintained a stable equity position, with net assets rising marginally to £5.51 million from £5.46 million year-over-year, driven by increased cash holdings. The company cited heightened competition and regulatory pressures within the sector as headwinds, though management expressed confidence in improving profitability through 2026 despite expecting challenging market conditions.

The FCA-regulated firm, which operates as a principal in foreign exchange and CFD derivatives, manages market, foreign currency, credit and liquidity risks through hedging strategies and margin-based collateral requirements. The company maintains a strong liquidity position relative to its operational footprint and continues to invest in compliance infrastructure and employee development, according to disclosures in the strategic report.

Auditors Fisher, Sassoon & Marks issued an unqualified opinion, confirming the financial statements present a true and fair view under UK GAAP. No dividends were paid or recommended. The company is a subsidiary of Hong Kong-listed Hantec Markets Holdings Limited.
