Fourth-Quarter 2020 RPC/Net Revenue Capture Guidance
Options
The company currently expects RPC for total options for the fourth quarter of 2020 to be 2 to 3 percent lower than the two-month average noted below, primarily reflecting the lower RPC expected for multi-listed options for December compared to the two-month average, as well as a higher percentage of volume from multi-listed options. The RPC for multi-listed options for the fourth quarter is expected to be 1 to 2 percent below the two-month average, reflecting higher volume-related rebates in December. The RPC for index options is expected to be in line with the two-month average noted below.

Futures
The RPC for futures in the fourth quarter of 2020 is expected to be in line with the two-month average noted below.

U.S. Equities
The revenue capture for U.S. Equities for the fourth quarter of 2020 is expected to be 15 to 17 percent above the two-month average noted below, primarily reflecting the impact of fee changes implemented during the quarter.

Canadian Equities
The revenue capture for Canadian Equities for the fourth quarter of 2020 is expected to be 4 to 5 percent below the two-month average noted below, primarily reflecting a shift in mix by customer type in December.

European Equities
The revenue capture for European Equities for the fourth quarter of 2020 is expected to be in line with the two-month average.

Global FX
The revenue capture for Global FX for the fourth quarter of 2020 is expected to be in line with the two-month average.

These expectations are estimated, preliminary and may change. There can be no assurance that our final RPC for the three months ended December 31, 2020, will not differ materially from these expectations.

The following represents average revenue per contract (RPC) or net capture based on a two-month average and a three-month rolling average, reported on a one-month lag. For Options and Futures, the average RPC represents total net transaction fees recognized for the period divided by total contracts traded during the period for options exchanges: BZX Options, Cboe Options, C2 Options and EDGX Options; futures include contracts traded on Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE). For U.S. Equities, «net capture per 100 touched shares» refers to transaction fees less liquidity payments and routing and clearing costs divided by the product of one-hundredth ADV of touched shares on BZX, BYX, EDGX and EDGA and the number of trading days for the period. For Canadian Equities, «net capture per 10,000 touched shares» refers to transaction fees divided by the product of one-ten thousandth ADV of shares for MATCHNow and the number of trading days for the period. For European Equities, «net capture per matched notional value» refers to transaction fees less liquidity payments in British pounds divided by the product of ADNV in British pounds of shares matched on Cboe Europe Equities and the number of trading days. For Global FX, «net capture per one million dollars traded» refers to transaction fees less liquidity payments, if any, divided by the product of one-thousandth of ADNV traded on the Cboe FX Markets and the number of trading days, divided by two, which represents the buyer and seller that are both charged on the transaction. Average transaction fees per contract can be affected by various factors, including fee rates, volume-based discounts and transaction mix by contract type and product type.
