Gate News message, April 23 — Cboe Global Markets has agreed to sell its Canadian and Australian equities exchanges to TMX Group for $300 million, marking a strategic shift as Cboe reallocates capital toward digital assets, event markets, and emerging market infrastructure. The transaction, which follows Cboe’s October 2025 decision to explore a sale, is expected to close separately in each jurisdiction after regulatory approvals.
Cboe is narrowing its focus on businesses it views as higher growth priorities, including derivatives, event contracts, digital assets, tokenization, and on-chain settlement models. The combined Cboe Canada and Cboe Australia businesses generated approximately $87 million in revenue in 2025 and about $25 million in adjusted EBITDA. TMX expects the acquisition to be accretive to adjusted earnings per share within the first 12 months after closing, excluding synergies.
For TMX, the purchase strengthens its position in Canada—where Cboe Canada operates as an established alternative venue—while providing an entry point into Australia’s resource and energy transition financing sectors. Regulators in both jurisdictions will examine whether TMX’s promised efficiencies and cost reductions outweigh concentration concerns, particularly in Canada where the deal brings competing exchanges under single ownership.
