The company also renewed marketing investments to scale the platform.
Its audited 2024 revenue and EBITDA surpassed earlier preliminary figures.
The NAGA Group AG, which is positioning itself as a financial superapp, reported year-over-year increased revenue in the first quarter of 2025, driven by a rise in commission income. The company also noted higher client acquisition and trading activity, supported by ongoing market volatility.
However, the broker has yet to publish specific financial figures for the quarter.
NAGA further stated that “early cost-side synergies also began to materialise.” During the quarter, it renewed its marketing investments to support the platform’s expansion.
Audited Financials Beat Preliminary Results
NAGA also announced its audited financial results for 2024, reporting total revenue of €63.2 million and Group EBITDA of €9.0 million. Both figures exceeded the previously released preliminary results, which had estimated revenue at €62.3 million and EBITDA at €8.1 million.
Additionally, the company’s EBITDA margin improved to 14%, up from 13% in the earlier figures. According to NAGA, the gains came from “stronger-than-anticipated synergies” following its merger with CAPEX.com.

“The audited financials for 2024 confirm that we not only met but clearly exceeded our preliminary figures,” said Octavian Patrascu, CEO of The NAGA Group.
“This performance validates the strength of our strategic transformation – from the successful CAPEX merger to the unified market approach and operational integration. Furthermore, our Q1 2025 results demonstrate that we are entering the new financial year with strong momentum and a clear growth trajectory.”
Expanding Reach and Services
In addition, NAGA quietly acquired the UK unit of TRADE.com last year. FinanceMagnates.com earlier reported that the acquisition followed a significant drop in TRADE.com’s UK revenue and a sharp rise in administrative costs, leading to net losses of £346,000.

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations.
