On November 24th, Daiwa released a research report stating that it remains its Buy rating on FUTU.

Daiwa pointed out the following highlights on FUTU:

  1. User acquisitions accelerated. Futu acquired 65k new paying users in 3Q23, with its 9M23 new paying users exceeding full-year target of 150k. Total paying users reached 1.65m, up 14% YoY. Hong Kong contributed over 40% of its new paying users in 3Q23.

  2. Aggregate AUM increased 27% YoY (flat QoQ) as robust net asset inflows offset the mark-to-market losses.

  3. Earnings slightly below expectation due to smaller client idle cash and client acquisition expenses.
