CME Group Inc. Reports Strong Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Revenues and Net Income
| • | Seventh consecutive year of record volume on a combined basis fueled strong 2007 revenues and net income |
| • | GAAP fourth-quarter earnings per share increased 29 percent to $3.75 |
| • | Pro forma non-GAAP fourth-quarter earnings per share increased 41 percent to $3.77 |

CHICAGO, February 5, 2008 – CME Group Inc. (NYSE, NASDAQ: CME) today reported total revenues increased 88 percent to $530 million and net income increased 96 percent to $201 million for fourth-quarter 2007 compared with fourth-quarter 2006. Diluted earnings per share rose 29 percent to $3.75. These GAAP results include the operations of both Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and Board of Trade of the City of Chicago, Inc. (CBOT); $12.5 million of merger-related operating expenses consisting of restructuring charges, integration and legal costs, and the acceleration of depreciation related to CBOT data centers; and an $11.3 million reduction to non-operating expenses associated with the guarantee for holders of the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) exercise right privilege (ERP). The comparative results for 2006 reflect the operations of CME only.
Pro forma non-GAAP revenues increased 23 percent to $530 million and net income increased 37 percent to $202 million for fourth-quarter 2007 compared with fourth-quarter 2006. Pro forma non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter were $3.77, a 41 percent increase versus fourth-quarter 2006. Fourth-quarter 2007 pro forma results exclude $12.5 million of merger-related operating expenses and the $11.3 million reduction to non-operating expenses associated with the ERP guarantee. The pro forma comparative results for 2006 reflect the operating results of both CME and CBOT as if they were combined. Pro forma measures do not replace and are not a substitute for GAAP financial results. They are provided to improve overall understanding of current financial performance and to provide a meaningful comparison with prior periods. A full reconciliation of these pro forma results is included in the attached tables.

Total GAAP revenues for 2007 increased 61 percent to $1.8 billion and 2007 net income increased 62 percent to $659 million. Diluted earnings per share for the year, on a GAAP basis, rose 29 percent to $14.93 versus 2006. Full-year 2007 pro forma non-GAAP revenues increased 30 percent to $2.1 billion and net income increased 50 percent to $817 million compared with 2006. Diluted earnings per share, on a pro forma non-GAAP basis, grew 51 percent to $14.96 in 2007 versus 2006. Full-year 2007 pro forma results exclude $76.2 million of merger-related operating expenses and $17.2 million of non-operating expense associated with the ERP guarantee.
“CME Group has consistently delivered strong volume growth and 2007 was no exception, with combined average daily trading volume up 28 percent,” said CME Group Executive Chairman Terry Duffy. “This demonstrates the value of our markets for a customer base that is expanding globally. Moreover, our successful merger with the Chicago Board of Trade enables us to serve these customers more efficiently and effectively, as represented by the recent migration of all e-cbot interest rate, equity and agricultural products to the CME Globex electronic platform.”
“In a year of extraordinary achievement and strategic growth, CME Group delivered exceptional financial results while executing an historic merger, integrating operations, providing transaction processing services, launching new products and continuing to expand globally in Europe, Asia and South America,” said CME Chief Executive Officer Craig Donohue. “During 2007, CME Group combined trading volume surged to nearly 2.8 billion contracts worth more than $1.2 quadrillion. So far in 2008, volumes have grown 65 percent compared with combined volumes during the same period last year. This is evidence that customers are turning to the transparency and liquidity of our diverse product set, and the safety and soundness that a centrally cleared market provides.”

Pro Forma Non-GAAP Fourth-Quarter 2007 Financial Results
Fourth-quarter 2007 volume averaged 10.6 million contracts per day, up 23 percent versus the same period in 2006. Total quarterly volume exceeded 676 million contracts, of which a record 81 percent traded electronically. This strong volume drove $439 million in clearing and transaction fee revenue, an increase of 24 percent from $354 million on a pro forma basis in fourth-quarter 2006, assuming CME and CBOT were combined during that time. The average rate per contract was $0.648 for the quarter compared with the pro forma average rate per contract of $0.654 in fourth-quarter 2006.
Keeping in mind that the 2006 CME processing services revenue and related CBOT expense are excluded from the pro-forma non-GAAP results, CME Group processing services revenue for the combined company increased 85 percent from $9 million to $16 million. The fourth quarter was the sixth consecutive quarter of record NYMEX volume on CME Globex. Additionally, quotation data fees were up 11 percent to $50 million.
Fourth-quarter operating income on a pro forma basis was $325 million, an increase of 43 percent from $228 million for the year-ago period. The company’s operating margin was 61 percent compared with 53 percent for the same period last year. Operating margin is defined as operating income as a percentage of total revenues.
Pro Forma Non-GAAP Full-Year 2007 Financial Results
On a pro forma basis, CME Group posted its seventh consecutive year of record volume as total volume approached 2.8 billion contracts. Daily volume averaged 11.0 million contracts per day, up 28 percent versus 2006. Total electronic volume averaged 8.5 million contracts per day, up 41 percent from the prior year.
All major product lines have achieved year-over-year growth above 20 percent for two consecutive years. This strong volume trend drove $1.8 billion in clearing and transaction fee revenue during 2007, an increase of 31 percent from $1.3 billion in 2006, assuming CME and CBOT were combined during that time. CME Group processing services revenue for the combined company increased 296 percent from $15 million to $58 million. CME Group’s processing services agreement with NYMEX began in June 2006 and average daily volume for the remainder of 2006 was 252,000 contracts. NYMEX energy and metals product volume on CME Globex in 2007 more than tripled that amount, growing to 757,000 contracts per day. Additionally, quotation data fees were up 10 percent to $197 million.
Full-year operating income on a pro forma basis was $1.3 billion, an increase of 53 percent from $843 million for the year-ago period. The company’s operating margin was 61 percent compared with 52 percent for last year.
Company Guidance
In 2008, the company expects operating expenses to range from $835 to $850 million. This expense range would represent less than 2 percent growth compared with 2007 pro forma expense levels, driven by normal expense growth rates less merger-related expense synergies. Historically, the company’s expense growth has ranged between 11 and 13 percent annually. By the end of 2008, the company expects to achieve run-rate expense synergies of $150 million. In addition, capital expenditures in 2008 are expected to total $225 to $235 million, driven by continued technology and real estate expenditures.

As part of a definitive cross-equity agreement with the Brazilian Mercantile & Futures Exchange, the company expects to issue 1.19 million shares of CME Group common stock, in conjunction with the first-quarter expected close of the transaction, provided that the arrangement is approved by the BM&F shareholders on February 26. At that point, these shares would be averaged into the company’s diluted share count.
Dividend
CME Group Inc. declared a first-quarter dividend of $1.15 cents per share, payable March 25, 2008, to shareholders of record as of March 10, 2008. This dividend represents a 34 percent increase from the prior CME Group quarterly dividend of 86 cents per share.
