Siebert Financial Corp. reported its 2025 annual results, showing total revenue of $94.2 million, a 12% increase from $83.9 million in 2024. Stock loan revenue, the company’s highest‑margin segment, rose to $29.0 million, up 51% from $19.2 million a year earlier, while retail customer net worth climbed to $19.5 billion from $18.0 billion.
Operating income fell to $5.6 million in 2025, down from $17.5 million in 2024, and net income dropped to $5.1 million from $13.3 million. Management attributed the decline to planned investments in new business development, technology initiatives, and strategic investments such as FusionIQ, which were intended to expand the company’s capabilities and support future growth.
Segment performance highlights that the core Financial Services segment generated $93.0 million of revenue and $6.8 million of operating income, a decline from $17.6 million in 2024. A newly launched Media, Sports and Entertainment segment produced $1.2 million of revenue and a $1.2 million operating loss, reflecting early-stage investment costs.
CEO John J. Gebbia said, “2025 was a year of growth and investment for Siebert. We increased revenue by double digits, expanded stock loan revenue by more than 50%, and grew retail customer net worth to $19.5 billion. At the same time, we made deliberate investments to expand our platform, enter new business lines, and strengthen our technology and operating capabilities for the future.” CFO Andrew Reich added, “The decline in operating income in 2025 was driven mainly by the cost of launching and scaling initiatives across the business, including new business development, technology investments, and strategic investments such as FusionIQ. These were planned investments intended to expand our capabilities and support future growth.”
The results illustrate a company in transition: strong top‑line growth driven by high‑margin stock loan activity and a broader customer base, but short‑term profitability pressure from significant capital allocation to new ventures. Management signals confidence that the diversified revenue base and technology investments will generate higher quality, recurring revenue streams in the long run, while acknowledging the need to manage costs carefully to improve operating margins over time.
