"We are pleased to report our company's seventh consecutive quarter of adjusted earnings per share growth, despite lower trading volume industry-wide. CBOE Holdings also posted significant gains in market share, as a result of very positive customer response to our new Volume Incentive Program (VIP)," said William J. Brodsky, CBOE Holdings Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "In addition, we continue to see particularly strong growth in our VIX options and futures, which we believe speaks to our ongoing commitment to expanding our suite of volatility products and to broadening our customer base through marketing and education. Our financial strength allows us to continue to deliver value to stockholders while investing in innovations that will position our company for long-term success."
"We reported solid financial results for the quarter by continuing to manage our costs while investing in future growth," said Alan J. Dean, CBOE Holdings Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "Our consistent earnings growth and financial stability provide a strong foundation for our business. During the quarter, we purchased $31 million of CBOE shares, bringing our total purchases under our $100 million share repurchase program to $78 million. We maintain a debt-free balance sheet, and our strong operations generate significant free cash flow, which we will continue to deploy with a careful balance between reinvesting in the business and distributing excess cash to stockholders through share repurchases and dividends," Dean added.

Revenues
Operating revenues were $121.4 million in the first quarter of 2012, down $2.6 million, or 2 percent, from $124.0 million in last year's first quarter. This decrease was the result of a $5.1 million decline in transaction fees and a $1.6 million decrease in access fees, offset somewhat by increases in exchange services and other fees and market data fees of $2.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively. The change in access fee revenue primarily reflects fee changes implemented during the quarter for trading permits. The increase in exchange services and other fees was driven by fee increases implemented during the quarter, while the growth in market data fees is directly related to CBOE's market share gains achieved during the quarter.
Transaction fees decreased 6 percent for the quarter due to a 4 percent decline in trading volume and a 2 percent decrease in the average transaction fee per contract compared with the first quarter of 2011. Trading volume for the first quarter was 302.7 million contracts, or 4.88 million contracts per day, versus 2011 first quarter volume of 315.0 million contracts, or 5.08 million contracts per day. The average transaction fee per contract decreased to $0.280 compared with $0.285 in the first quarter of 2011.
The decrease in the average transaction fee per contract was driven by a decline in the rate per contract (RPC) in equity and ETF options. This decline resulted from strong response to CBOE's new Volume Incentive Program (VIP), implemented on January 3, and higher volume discounts for liquidity providers. The VIP provides credits to firms for qualifying customer contracts in multiply-listed products in excess of certain thresholds. Volume discounts for liquidity providers in multiply-listed products were up as liquidity providers experienced more activity trading with the customer contracts brought to CBOE through VIP. The declines in the RPC for equity and ETF options were offset significantly by increases in the RPC for index options and futures contracts. The average transaction fee per contract represents total transaction fee revenue divided by total reported trading volume for CBOE, C2 Options Exchange (C2) and CBOE Futures Exchange (CFE).
Adjusted Operating Expenses
Adjusted operating expenses, which exclude the accelerated recognition of stock-based compensation expense, decreased $2.3 million, or 3 percent, to $63.8 million compared with $66.1 million in the first quarter of 2011. This decrease primarily resulted from lower trading volume incentives, offset somewhat by increases in outside services and travel and promotional expenses.
The company's core operating expenses of $41.6 million for the first quarter of 2012 increased $1.0 million, or 3 percent, compared with last year's first quarter, primarily driven by higher costs for data processing, outside services and travel and promotional expenses.
Core operating expenses represent total operating expenses less volume-based expenses, depreciation and amortization, accelerated stock-based compensation expense and unusual or one-time expenses.
Volume-based expenses, which include royalty fees and trading volume incentives, were $13.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, representing a decrease of $3.1 million, or 18 percent, compared with the same period last year, reflecting a decline in trading volume incentives resulting from changes to the program criteria.
Adjusted Operating Margin
The company's adjusted operating margin increased 80 basis points to 47.5 percent for the first quarter of 2012, compared with 46.7 percent in the same period in 2011, representing the company's seventh consecutive quarter of year-over-year margin growth.
Effective Tax Rate
The company reported an effective tax rate of 41.3 percent versus 42.2 percent in last year's first quarter. The lower effective tax rate was primarily due to a new tax apportionment method enacted by Illinois.
