Hub24 share price rollercoaster

The Hub 24 share price is on a wild ride today despite the company announcing a 41% increase in net cash inflows on the prior corresponding period (pcp) to $1.9 billion. During all of FY21, the average monthly net inflows were $556 million, up 35% on FY20's monthly average.

The company advised it now manages $51.4 billion worth of funds – up 236.7% on the pcp. This includes $17.2 billion brought in by Xplore Wealth, which Hub24 acquired during the quarter. Platform funds under administration ($35.6 billion) were up 136% on the pcp. The remaining $15.8 billion of funds was via portfolio, administration and reporting services. 

According to Hub24, from December 2019 to now, its market share has increased from 1.75% to 2.5%. Including Xplore Wealth, the company's total market share is 4.3%.

Other updates

Hub24 also confirmed it now owns one-third of all shares in Easton Investments Ltd (ASX: EAS). Hub24 will now share its HUBconnect Insight compliance monitoring software with Easton.

As well, the company plans to launch its investment and superannuation offering with IOOF Holdings Limited (ASX: IFL) in the last quarter of FY21. Hub24 is also collaborating with Aberdeen Standard Investments Australia Limited on a "bionic advice solution". Hub24 hopes the new offering will facilitate the entering of new customer segments.

Finally, the Clearview Wealth Ltd (ASX: CVW) "bulk transaction" (approximately $1.3 billion) is also expected to be completed in the last quarter of this financial year.

Investors will likely be keeping an eye on the company's expansion plans to see whether they translate to growth in the Hub24 share price.
