Webull is expected to release Q1 2026 results on May 21 around 4:15 PM ET after a year in which the stock declined 47%. The prior quarter showed revenue growth of 53.4% year over year to $165.20M, beating consensus, while earnings per share missed expectations at $0.01 versus $0.05. The miss was attributed to marketing and branding spend rising to $53.25M from $23.36M, compressing net income to $3.04M. Customer metrics remained strong, including assets of $24.6B, net deposits of $3.9B, and DARTs of 1.2M. Investors plan to assess whether marketing spend normalizes, how widely Vega AI is adopted, and whether international traction continues, including APAC assets above $3B and Canada approaching $1.5B.
"Investors are watching Webull ( NASDAQ:BULL | BULL Price Prediction) ahead of its Q1 2026 results expected tonight, May 21, around 4:15 PM ET. After a brutal year where the stock saw a 47% decline, this could be an opportunity to see whether the stock can rebound from here."
"Last quarter set the tone. Q4 revenue rose 53.4% YoY to $165.20M, beating consensus by 2.38%, but EPS landed at $0.01 versus the $0.05 estimate, missing expectations by 80%. The culprit was a deliberate one. Marketing and branding spend more than doubled to $53.25M from $23.36M, compressing net income to $3.04M."
"Customer metrics held up. Assets reached $24.6B (+81% YoY), net deposits hit $3.9B, and DARTs grew 55% YoY to 1.2M. Since the March 4 earnings report, shares have recovered from a post-earnings low of $4.82 back to $7.02, though the stock remains down 42.75% over the past year."
"I'll be watching three things tonight. First, whether marketing spend normalizes. Last quarter's Q4 doubling was framed as a one-quarter investment cycle, and Q1 will reveal whether management is willing to let operating leverage return. Second, Vega AI adoption. CEO Anthony Denier said "approximately 1 out of 8 users consulted Vega AI prior to executing a trade since launch". Third, international traction. APAC customer assets surpassed $3B, Canada is tracking toward $1.5B, and the Netherlands brokerage just opened."
