Adjusted Pro Forma Results

Throughout the discussion of FXCM Inc.’s results, information is presented on an Adjusted Pro Forma basis, which is a non-generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”) measure. Adjusted Pro Forma results begin with information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), adjusted to exclude certain items and reflects the conversion of all units of FXCM Holdings, LLC for shares of Class A common stock of FXCM Inc. FXCM believes that the disclosed Adjusted Pro Forma measures and any adjustments thereto, when presented in conjunction with comparable U.S. GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare FXCM’s results across several periods and facilitate an understanding of FXCM’s operating results. The Company uses these measures to evaluate its operating performance, as well as the performance of individual employees. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The differences between Adjusted Pro Forma and U.S. GAAP results are as follows:

1.	Assumed Exchange of Units of FXCM Holdings, LLC for FXCM Inc. Class A Shares. As a result of the exchange of FXCM Holdings units, the non-controlling interest related to these units is converted to controlling interest. The Company’s management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed exchange of all FXCM Holdings units.
2.	Stock Based Compensation Expense. Adjustments have been made to the Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings to eliminate expense relating to stock based compensation. The Company’s management believes it is useful to provide the effects of eliminating these expenses.
3.	Income Taxes. Prior to the initial public offering FXCM was organized as a series of limited liability companies and foreign corporations, and even following the initial public offering not all of the Company’s income is subject to corporate-level taxes. As a result, adjustments have been made to the Adjusted Pro Forma earnings to assume that the Company has adopted a conventional corporate tax structure and is taxed as a C corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates and the deferred tax assets related to tax benefits for equity-based compensation awards are realized when the stock options are exercised. This assumption is consistent with the assumption that all of FXCM Holdings’ units are exchanged for shares of FXCM Inc. Class A common stock, as discussed in Item 1 above, as the assumed exchange would change the tax structure of the Company.
4.	Regulatory Reserve. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, the Company incurred costs of $16.3 million regarding a settlement with the NFA and the CFTC relating to trade execution activities. Pursuant to an agreement with a subsidiary of FXCM Holdings LLC, certain founding members of FXCM Holdings agreed to reimburse the cost of these matters, up to $16.3 million and additional capital in this amount was provided by the respective founding members. Consequently there was no impact to FXCM Inc.'s net income for the three months and year ended December 31, 2011 as the expense was allocated to the respective members for such expenses as permitted under terms of Holdings’ LLC agreement. The Company believes it is useful to provide the effects of eliminating these expenses.
