2005 Restatement - Explanatory Note



This Amendment No. 1 to the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is being filed to amend and reflect the restatement of its interim financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005.



In connection with the preparation of its June 30, 2005 interim financial
statements, the Company determined that there were errors in how it accounted for certain property leases that included fixed rent escalations, lease incentives and free rent periods over the lease term (Lease Accounting Adjustments). In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, Accounting for Leases, as clarified by the Emerging Issues Task Force and Financial Accounting Standards Board Technical Bulletins, rent expense under operating leases with
fixed rent escalations and lease incentives should be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and straight-line rent expense should begin to be recorded when the lessee takes possession of or controls the use of the space, including
during free rent periods. The Company incorrectly accounted for certain leases by recognizing rent expense only when the rental payments were due to be paid and by recording lease incentives as reductions to leasehold improvements. The financial
statements are being restated to properly account for these leases. The primary impact of the Lease Accounting Adjustments to the Companys previously issued financial statements included in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March
31, 2005 is an increase in Occupancy and equipment rentals expense and Accrued expenses and other liabilities. Please see Footnote 2 to the Companys consolidated financial statements for additional discussion.



In addition, the Company is changing the accounting presentation of certain
balances within Receivable from brokers and dealers and Payable to brokers and dealers as of March 31, 2005. This adjustment relates to the accounting for unsettled transactions in European equities recorded in our U.K. operations (European
Adjustment). Receivables and payables related to unsettled European equity transactions were previously recorded as gross amounts in accordance with local U.K. accounting practice. In the U.S., the Company records all receivables and payables
related to unsettled equity transactions on a net basis. In order to maintain consistency with the accounting for unsettled U.S. equity transactions, the Company will now record receivables and payables related to unsettled European equity
transactions on a net basis. The primary impact of the European Adjustment to the Companys previously issued financial statements included in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005 is an offsetting reduction of Receivables
from brokers and dealers and Payables to brokers and dealers.



Except for the foregoing amended information, this Form 10-Q/A continues to describe conditions as of the date of the original filing, and any disclosures to reflect events that occurred at a later date have not been updated. Other events
occurring after the original filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have been or will be addressed in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) subsequent to the date of the original
filing. In accordance with the rules of the SEC, the affected items of the Form 10-Q, Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I are being amended and restated in their entirety. Except as described above, no other amendments are being made to the Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q/A does not reflect events occurring after the original filing or substantively modify or update the disclosure contained in the Form 10-Q in any way other than as required to reflect the amendments described above. In
addition, pursuant to the rules of the SEC, currently-dated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are attached to this Form 10-Q/A as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, respectively.



On May 11, 2005, the Company changed its name from Knight Trading Group, Inc.
to Knight Capital Group, Inc. All references to Knight Trading Group, Inc. in the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been changed to Knight Capital Group, Inc. in this Form 10-Q/A.

KNIGHT CAPITAL GROUP, INC.



NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



MARCH 31, 2005

(Unaudited)



1. Organization and Description of the Business



Knight Capital Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have two operating business segments, Asset Management and Equity Markets, and a
Corporate segment. The Companys operating business segments from continuing operations comprise the following operating subsidiaries:



Asset Management



| |  |  | Deephaven Capital Management LLC (Deephaven) is the investment manager and sponsor of the Deephaven investment funds (the Deephaven Funds). Deephaven also
has a U.K. registered investment advisor subsidiary, which is regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in the U.K.

and on the OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). Additionally, in December 2003, KEM acquired the business of Donaldson & Co., Incorporated (Donaldson), a firm that offers soft dollar and commission recapture services. KEM is a
broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), the National Stock Exchange and the Pacific Stock Exchange.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Knight Capital Markets LLC (KCM) operates as a market maker in the Nasdaq Intermarket, the over-the-counter market for New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and American Stock Exchange (AMEX) listed
securities. KCM is a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and is a member of the NASD.

clients in U.S. and European equities. KEMIL is regulated by the FSA and is a member of the London Stock Exchange.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Corporate segment includes all corporate overhead expenses and investment income earned on strategic investments and our corporate investment in the
Deephaven Funds. Corporate overhead expenses primarily consist of compensation for certain senior executives and other individuals employed at the corporate holding company, legal and other professional expenses related to corporate matters,
investor and public relations expenses and directors and officers insurance.



Discontinued Operations



The Company completed the sale of its Derivative Markets business to Citigroup Financial Products Inc. (Citigroup) for $237 million in cash as of the close of business on December 9, 2004. In accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), the results of the Derivative Markets segment, as well as the gain on the sale of this business, have been included within discontinued operations for all periods presented. The final purchase price was
subject to adjustment based on the final determination of the book value of the Derivative Markets business at the time the deal closed. The final determination of the book value was completed during the first quarter of 2005. For a further
discussion of the sale of the Companys Derivative Markets business and its associated accounting treatment, see Footnote 8 Discontinued Operations.



2. Significant Accounting Policies



Basis of consolidation and form of presentation



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and, in the opinion of management,
reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period. All significant intercompany transactions and balances within continuing operations have been eliminated.
Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. The nature of the Companys business is such that the results of an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

##### Table of Contents

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004 as filed with the SEC.



Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.



Cash and cash equivalents



Cash and cash equivalents include money market accounts, which are payable
on demand, or short-term investments with an original maturity of less than 30 days. The carrying amount of such cash equivalents approximates their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.



Market making and sales activities



Securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased, which primarily
consist of listed and OTC equities, are carried at market value and are recorded on a trade date basis. Net trading revenue (trading gains, net of trading losses) and commissions (which includes commission equivalents earned on institutional client
orders) and related expenses are also recorded on a trade date basis. As disclosed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, in 2004, the Company changed its classification of certain transaction-related regulatory fees. These fees are now
included within Execution and clearance fees. In prior periods, these fees were netted within Net trading revenue. The transaction-related regulatory fees were $4.7 million and $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively. As a result of this change, prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.



Payments for order flow represent payments to broker-dealer clients for directing their order executions to the Company. Soft dollar and commission
recapture expense represents payments to institutions in connection with soft dollar and commission recapture programs. The Companys clearing agreements call for payment or receipt of interest income, net of interest expense, for facilitating
the settlement and financing of securities transactions.



Asset management fees



The Company earns asset
management fees for sponsoring and managing the Deephaven Funds. Such fees are recorded monthly as earned and are calculated as a percentage of the Deephaven Funds monthly net assets, plus a percentage of a new high net asset value (the
Incentive Allocation Fee), as defined, for any six month period ended June 30th or December 31st. A new high net asset value is generally defined as the amount by which the net asset value of the Deephaven Funds exceeds the greater of
either the highest previous net asset value in the Deephaven Funds, or the net asset value at the time each investor made a purchase. The Incentive Allocation Fee may increase or decrease during the year based on the performance of the Deephaven
Funds. If Deephavens Market Neutral Fund, which contains the majority of assets under management, recognizes a loss in the second half of a calendar year, the Incentive Allocation Fee is recalculated on an annual rather than a semi-annual
basis. As such, the Incentive Allocation Fee may be negative for certain periods, but not lower than zero on a year-to-date basis.



Estimated fair value of financial instruments



The Companys securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased are carried at market value, which is estimated using market quotations
available from major securities exchanges, clearing brokers and dealers. Management estimates that the fair values of other financial instruments recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition (including receivables, payables and
accrued expenses) approximate their carrying values, as such financial instruments are short-term in nature, bear interest at current market rates or are subject to frequent repricing.



Accounting for derivatives



The Companys derivative financial instruments, primarily comprised of listed futures, are all held for trading purposes and are carried at market
value.



Goodwill and intangible assets



The Company applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,which requires that goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life no longer be amortized, but instead, be tested for impairment annually or when an
event occurs or circumstances change that signify the existence of impairment. Other intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives.

##### Table of Contents

Strategic investments



Strategic investments include equity ownership interests of less than 20% in financial services-related businesses and are
accounted for under the equity method or at fair value. The equity method of accounting is used for investments in limited partnerships and limited liability corporations. The fair value of investments, recorded in the Companys broker-dealer
subsidiaries, for which a quoted market or dealer price is not available for the size of our investment, is based on managements estimate. Among the factors considered by management in determining the fair value of investments are the cost of
the investment, terms and liquidity, developments since the acquisition of the investment, the sales price of recently issued securities, the financial condition and operating results of the issuer, earnings trends and consistency of operating cash
flows, the long-term business potential of the issuer, the quoted market price of securities with similar quality and yield that are publicly traded, and other factors generally pertinent to the valuation of investments. The fair value of these
investments is subject to a high degree of volatility and may be susceptible to significant fluctuations in the near term. The valuations of strategic investments are reviewed by management on an ongoing basis to ensure that the carrying values of
the investment have not been impaired.



Investments that are
classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net of applicable taxes, in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax within Stockholders Equity on the
Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.



Investments
not recorded in the Companys broker-dealer subsidiaries which do not have a readily determinable fair value, are recorded at amortized cost.



Treasury stock



The Company records its purchases of treasury stock at cost as a separate component of Stockholders equity. The Company obtains treasury stock
through purchases in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions.



Foreign currencies



The
functional currency of the Companys consolidated foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates at the date of the Consolidated Statements of
Financial Condition. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates during the periods.



Depreciation, amortization and occupancy



Fixed assets are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease
term or the expected useful life of the assets. The Company records rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lives of the leases. The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with the acquisition or development of internal-use software and
amortizes the software over its estimated useful life of three years, commencing at the time the software is placed in service.



Writedown of fixed assets



Writedowns of fixed assets are recognized when it is determined that the fixed assets are no longer actively used and are determined to be impaired. The
amount of the impairment writedown is determined by the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the fixed asset. In determining the impairment, an estimated fair value is obtained through research and inquiry of the market.
Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis.



Lease loss accrual



It is the Companys
policy to identify excess real estate capacity and where applicable, accrue for such future costs. In determining the accrual, a nominal cash flow analysis is performed for lease losses initiated prior to December 31, 2002, the effective date of
SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (which requires the accrual of future costs to be made using a discounted cash flow analysis for lease losses initiated after such date), and costs related to the
excess capacity are accrued.



Income taxes



The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected
future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. The
Company evaluates the recoverability of future tax deductions by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including reversal of temporary differences and forecasted operating earnings. Net deferred tax assets and
liabilities are included in Other assets and Accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Discontinued Operations



In accordance with SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the revenues and expenses
associated with a separate business segment or reporting unit that has been disposed of through closure or sale are included within (Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax, on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods
presented.



Stock-based compensation



The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options plans. As options are granted at the then market value, no compensation expense has been recognized for the fair
values of the options granted to employees.



Had compensation
expense for the Companys options been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Companys net income and earnings per share amounts for the
three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively would have been as follows (as restated; in millions, except per share data):

The Company records
the fair market value of restricted stock awards on the date of grant as unamortized stock-based compensation in Stockholders equity and amortizes the balance to compensation expense ratably over the vesting period.



Other



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may
differ from those estimates.



Restatement of interim financial statements
for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004



In connection with the preparation of its June 30, 2005 interim financial statements, the Company determined that there were errors in how it accounted for certain property leases that included fixed rent escalations,
lease incentives and free rent periods over the lease term (Lease Accounting Adjustments). In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, Accounting for Leases, as clarified by the Emerging Issues Task
Force and Financial Accounting Standards Board Technical Bulletins, rent expense under operating leases with fixed rent escalations and lease incentives should be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and straight-line rent
expense should begin to be recorded when the lessee takes possession of or controls the use of the space, including during free rent periods. The Company incorrectly accounted for certain leases by recognizing rent expense only when the rental
payments were due to be paid and by recording lease incentives as reductions to leasehold improvements. The financial statements are being restated to properly account for these leases.



The primary impact of the Lease Accounting Adjustments to the Companys previously issued financial statements is an
increase in Occupancy and equipment rentals expense and Accrued expenses and other liabilities. The Finance and Audit

##### Table of Contents

Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, which met on July 11, 2005, has concurred with Managements
recommendation that the Company should restate its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, included in the Companys 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and its interim financial statements included in the
Companys Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005. The Lease Accounting Adjustments do not affect the Companys historical reported net cash flows or revenues.



In addition, the Company is changing the accounting presentation of certain balances within Receivable from brokers and
dealers and Payable to brokers and dealers as of March 31, 2005. This adjustment relates to the accounting for unsettled transactions in European equities recorded in our U.K. operations (European Adjustment). Receivables and payables
related to unsettled European equity transactions were previously recorded as gross amounts in accordance with U.K. accounting rules. In the U.S., the Company records all receivables and payables on unsettled equity transactions on a net basis. In
order to maintain consistency with the accounting for unsettled U.S. equity transactions, the Company will now record receivables and payables related to unsettled European equity transactions on a net basis. The primary impact of the European
Adjustment to the Companys previously issued financial statements is an offsetting reduction of Receivables from brokers and dealers and Payables to brokers and dealers.



The following table isolates each of the restated amounts in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition (Unaudited) as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, and the Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets



In June 2004, the Company tested for the impairment of
goodwill and intangible assets and concluded that there was no impairment. The Company plans on performing its annual test for impairment during the second quarter of 2005. The goodwill balance of $19.2 million at March 31, 2005 related to the
Equity Markets segment. Goodwill is net of accumulated amortization of $21.9 million recorded through December 31, 2001, the effective date the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. In the first half of 2004, the Company acquired all of the ownership
interests of the minority owners of Knight Roundtable Europe Limited (KREL) (which is the Companys subsidiary that owns KEMIL) for $2.5 million, which was recorded as goodwill and is attributable to the Equity Markets business
segment.



At March 31, 2005, the Company had intangible assets,
net of accumulated amortization, of $11.4 million, all included within the Equity Markets business segment. Substantially all of the intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, of $11.4 million, resulted from the purchase of the business of
Donaldson and primarily represent customer relationships. The carrying value of these intangible assets is being amortized over the remaining useful lives, which have been determined to range from five to thirty years.



In the first quarter of 2005, the Company recorded amortization expense
related to its intangible assets within its Equity Markets business segment of $155,000. The estimated amortization expense relating to the intangible assets for each of the next five years approximates $466,000 for the remainder of 2005, $620,000
per year from 2006 through 2008, and $560,000 in 2009.



The
chart below summarizes the activity of the Companys Goodwill and Intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively (in millions).

6. Investment in Deephaven Sponsored Funds and Strategic Investments



The Companys wholly-owned subsidiary, Deephaven, is the investment
manager and sponsor of the Deephaven Funds, which engages in various trading strategies involving equities, debt instruments and derivatives. The underlying investments in the Deephaven Funds are carried at market value. Of the $3.5 billion of
assets under management in the Deephaven Funds as of March 31, 2005, the Company had a corporate investment of $315.2 million. On January 1, 2005, the Company invested an additional $100.0 million into the Deephaven Funds, which was redeemed on
April 1, 2005. Additionally, Other assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 included $22.5 million and $19.9 million, respectively, of investments in the Deephaven Funds related to employee
deferred compensation plans. In addition, certain officers, directors and employees of the Company had direct investments of approximately $4.4 million in the Deephaven Funds, in the aggregate, as of March 31, 2005.



In connection with the sale of the Derivative Markets business (see Footnote
8, Discontinued Operations) and in light of the reorganization of the Companys business segments, the Company transferred its investments of the International Securities Exchange, Inc. (ISE) and The Nasdaq Stock Market,
Inc. (Nasdaq), which were previously held by its broker-dealer subsidiaries, to a corporate investment holding company. During the first quarter of 2005, these investments became marketable and, accordingly, were accounted for as equity
securities under SFAS No. 115 Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities and were classified as available-for-sale securities. At March 31, 2005, these investments had an aggregate fair value and amortized cost of $54.7
million and $14.3 million, respectively, and were included in Strategic investments on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.



On March 9, 2005, in conjunction with the ISEs initial public offering, the Company sold approximately 30% of its original equity ownership of the
ISE, having an original cost of $3.0 million, for $12.6 million. As a result of the transaction, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $9.6 million. As of March 31, 2005, the Company owned 1.7 million shares of common stock of the ISE.



7. Significant Clients



The Company considers significant clients to be clients who account for 10%
or more of the total U.S. equity dollar value traded by the Company during the period. One customer accounted for approximately 11.5% of the Companys U.S. equity dollar value traded during the three months ended March 31, 2005. Payments for
order flow to this firm for U.S. equity order flow for the three months ended March 31, 2005 amounted to $4.1 million.



The Companys corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds of $315.2 million accounted for 9.1% of total assets under management as of March 31, 2005.
On April 1, 2005, the Company redeemed $100.0 million of its corporate investment. One institutional investor accounted for more than 10% of the Deephaven Funds assets under management, with 10.9% as of March 31, 2005.



8. Discontinued Operations



Derivative Markets



The Company completed the sale of its Derivative Markets business to
Citigroup for $237 million in cash as of the close of business on December 9, 2004. The final purchase price was subject to adjustment based on the final determination of the book value of the Derivative Markets business at the time the deal closed.
The final determination of book value occurred in the first quarter of 2005, at which time the adjustment was recognized. The result of this adjustment and other expenses related to the sale resulted in a loss from discontinued operations, net of
tax, of $266,000 in the first quarter 2005.



The decision to
sell the Derivative Markets business was based on a review of the overall options industry, the capital and risk required to maintain this business successfully and the business role in the Companys long-term strategy. In accordance with
SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the results of the Derivative Markets segment, the revenues and expenses associated with these businesses as well as all costs associated with the sale transaction have been
included in (Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented.



The revenues and results of operations of the discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are summarized as follows (in
millions):

9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities



In the ordinary course of business, the nature of the Companys business subjects it to claims, lawsuits, regulatory
examinations and other proceedings. The results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty. There can be no assurance that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations in any future
period and a material judgment could have a material adverse impact on the Companys financial condition and results of operations. However, it is the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel that, based on information
currently available, the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the business, financial condition or operating results of the Company although they might be material to the operating results for any particular
period, depending, in part, upon operating results for that period.



The Company leases office space under noncancelable operating leases. Certain office leases contain fixed escalation clauses. Rental expense from continuing operations under the office leases, as restated, was $2.7 million and $2.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



The Company leases certain computer and other equipment under noncancelable operating leases. In addition, the Company has entered into guaranteed employment contracts with certain of its employees. As of March 31, 2005, future minimum
rental commitments under all noncancelable office, computer and equipment leases (Operating Leases), and obligations on clearing contracts and guaranteed employment contracts longer than one year (Other Obligations) were as
follows:

During the normal
course of business, the Company collateralizes certain leases, employment agreements or other contractual obligations through letters of credit or segregated funds held in escrow accounts. As of March 31, 2005, the Company has provided a $9.0
million letter of credit, collateralized by U.S. Treasury Bills, as a guarantee for one of the Companys lease obligations.



The Company entered into long-term employment contracts with the senior management team of Deephaven (the Deephaven managers). These
employment agreements, which became effective on January 1, 2004, are for three-year terms and include an option for renewal by the Deephaven managers through 2009 under certain circumstances. Pursuant to the terms of a simultaneously executed
option agreement between the Company and the Deephaven managers, in the event of a change of control of the Company during the initial three-year employment term, the Deephaven managers would have the option (the Option) to obtain a 51%
interest in Deephaven in exchange for the termination of their employment contracts and associated profit-sharing bonuses and other employee profit-sharing plans, which in the aggregate range from 42% to 50% of the pre-tax, pre-profit sharing
profits of Deephaven during the term of the agreements, subject to meeting certain annual guaranteed amounts. If a change of control of the Company were to occur, and if the Deephaven managers exercised the Option, the Company would retain a 49%
interest in Deephaven. In addition, during the life of the Option, the agreements provide that the Company may not sell Deephaven without the approval of the Deephaven managers.

income, net of tax represents unrealized gains on the Companys strategic investments in the ISE and Nasdaq. There were no unrealized losses at March 31, 2005.



11. Earnings per Share



Basic earnings per common share (EPS) has been calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock
outstanding during each respective period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential reduction in EPS using the treasury stock method to reflect the impact of common stock equivalents if stock awards such as stock options and restricted stock were
exercised or converted into Class A Common Stock.



The
following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 (in millions, except for share and per share data):

12. Stock-Based Compensation



The Company has established the Knight Capital Group,
Inc. 1998 Long Term Incentive Plan, the Knight Capital Group, Inc. 1998 Nonemployee Director Stock Option Plan and the Knight Capital Group, Inc. 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the Plans). The purpose of the Plans is to
provide long-term incentive compensation to employees and directors of the Company. The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors, and allow for the grant of options, restricted stock and
restricted stock units (collectively, the awards), as defined by the Plans. In addition, the Plans limit the number of options or shares that may be granted to a single individual and the Plans also limit the number of shares of
restricted stock that may be awarded.



The Companys
policy is to grant options for the purchase of shares of Class A Common Stock at not less than market value, which the Plans define as the average of the high and low sales prices on the date prior to the grant date. Options generally vest over a
three or four-year period and expire on the fifth or tenth anniversary of the grant date, pursuant to the terms of the agreements. Restricted stock awards generally vest over three years. The Company has the right to fully vest employees in their
awards upon retirement and in certain other circumstances.

Class A Common Stock granted to employees over the vesting period. For the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company recorded compensation expense related to its continuing operations for the fair values of the restricted shares of
Class A Common Stock granted to employees of $2.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, all of which has been included in Employee compensation and benefits in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



As discussed in Footnote 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Companys Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and the
Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations have been restated to reflect a change in accounting for certain property lease transactions and an adjustment to the Companys Receivables from and Payables to brokers and dealers. As
applicable, this Item 2 has been revised to reflect these changes.



The following discussion of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004 as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including those discussed in our Form 10-K/A. Our actual results may differ materially from those
anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth elsewhere in this document and in our Form 10-K/A.



Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including without limitation, those under
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations herein (MD&A), Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in Part I, Item 3, and Legal
Proceedings in Part II, Item 1, and the documents incorporated by reference, may constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections
about the Companys industry, managements beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, readers are cautioned that any such
forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict including, without limitation, risks associated with the costs and integration,
performance and operation of the businesses being acquired by the Company. Since such statements involve risks and uncertainties, the actual results and performance of the Company may turn out to be materially different from the results expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise required by law, the Company also disclaims any obligation to update its
view of any such risks or uncertainties or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to the forward looking statements made in this report. Readers should carefully review the risks and uncertainties under Certain Factors Affecting
Results of Operations within MD&A herein, Risks Affecting our Business in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, and those described in other reports or documents the Company files from time to time with the SEC. This
discussion should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in this report.



Executive Overview



The Company currently has two operating business segments, Asset Management and Equity Markets, and a Corporate segment.

up $1.3 billion from the $2.2 billion of assets under management as of March 31, 2004.

commitment and access to a deep pool of liquidity across the depth and breadth of the U.S. equity markets. As announced in April 2005, the Company reorganized its Equity Markets business segment into three different business groups: Broker-Dealer,

The Companys Corporate segment includes all corporate overhead expenses
and investment income earned on strategic investments and our corporate investment in funds managed by the Asset Management segment (the Deephaven Funds). Corporate overhead expenses primarily consist of compensation for certain senior
executives and other individuals employed at the corporate holding company, legal and other professional expenses related to corporate matters, investor and public relations expenses and directors and officers insurance.



In the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company completed the sale of one of its
business segments, Derivative Markets, to Citigroup Financial Products, Inc. (Citigroup). In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the results of this business segment have been included within
discontinued operations for all periods presented. The final purchase price was subject to adjustment based on the final determination of the book value of the Derivative Markets business at the time the deal closed. The results of this adjustment
and other expenses related to the sale is included in Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations included in Part I, Item 1 Financial Statements of this document. For a more detailed
discussion of the sale of the Companys Derivative Markets business, please see Footnote 8 Discontinued Operations also included in Part I, Item 1 Financial Statements of this document.

the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $43.5 million in the comparable period in 2004. Pre-Tax Earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2005 in our Asset Management business segment was down slightly from the comparable period in 2004,
while the Pre-Tax Earnings from our Equity Markets business segment decreased more significantly. Our Asset Management business segment was impacted by the increase in the percentage payout for profitability-based bonuses for the senior management
team at Deephaven and lower fund returns offset, in part, by the growth in assets under management. Our Equity Markets business segment was affected by greater competition for broker-dealer order client order flow, reduced revenue capture statistics
and losses incurred from our London sales office. The results from our Corporate segment were positively impacted by the gain on the sale of a portion of our investment in the International Securities Exchange (ISE) offset, in part, by
lower returns on our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds.



Certain Factors Affecting Results of Operations



We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significant fluctuations in operating results due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, introductions or enhancements to market-making services by us or our
competitors; the value of our securities positions and our ability to manage the risks attendant thereto; the equity market volumes; the dollar value of securities traded; volatility in the securities markets; our market share with institutional and
broker-dealer clients; the performance of our international operations; our ability to manage personnel, overhead and other expenses, including our occupancy expenses under our office leases and legal fees related to our legal proceedings; the
strength of our client relationships; the amount of, and volatility in, the results of our quantitative market-making and program trading portfolios; changes in payments for order flow and clearing costs; the addition or loss of executive management
and asset management, equity sales and trading and technology professionals; legislative, legal and regulatory changes; legal and regulatory matters; geopolitical risk; the amount and timing of capital expenditures and divestitures; the incurrence
of costs associated with acquisitions and dispositions; the integration, performance and operation of acquired businesses; investor sentiment; the level of assets under management and fund returns; technological changes and events; seasonality;
competition and market and economic conditions. Such factors may also have an impact on our ability to achieve our strategic objectives, including, without limitation, increases in our market share and revenue capture in our Equity Markets segment
and increases in our fund returns and assets under management in our Asset Management segment. If demand for our services declines in either of our business segments due to any of the above factors, and we are unable to adjust our cost structure on
a timely basis, our operating results and strategic objectives could be materially and adversely affected.

As a result of the foregoing factors, period-to-period comparisons of our revenues and operating results
are not necessarily meaningful and such comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance. There also can be no assurance that we will be able to return to the rates of revenue growth that we have experienced in the past or that
we will be able to improve our operating results.



Trends



We believe that our continuing operations are
currently impacted by the following trends that may affect our financial condition and results of operations.



| |  |  | Over the past three years, the effects of market structure changes, competition and market conditions have resulted in a decline in revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value
traded in our Equity Markets operations.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Retail broker-dealer participation in the equity markets has fluctuated over the past few years due to investor sentiment, market conditions and a variety of other factors. Retail
transaction volumes may not be sustainable and are not predictable.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Broker-dealer clients continue to focus on statistics measuring the quality of equity executions (including speed of executions and price improvement). In an effort to improve the
quality of their executions as well as increase efficiencies, market makers have increased the level of automation within their operations. The greater focus on execution quality has resulted in greater competition in the marketplace, which has
negatively impacted the revenue capture metrics of the Company and other market-making firms.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Market structure changes, competition and market conditions have triggered an industry shift toward market makers charging explicit commissions or commission equivalents to
institutional clients for executions in OTC securities. For the majority of our institutional client orders, we currently charge an explicit fee in the form of commissions or commission equivalents. In addition, institutional commission rates have
fallen in the past few years, and this may continue in the future.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Due to regulatory scrutiny over the past two years relating to equity sell-side research and the continued focus by investors on execution quality and overall transaction costs,
more institutional clients allocate commissions to broker-dealers based on the quality of executions. In the past, institutional equity commissions were primarily allocated to broker-dealers in exchange for either research or soft dollar and
commission recapture programs.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Market structure changes, competition and market conditions have also resulted in the recent announcement of two significant mergers amongst U.S. market centers. This consolidation
may result in greater competition in the future.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | There has been increased scrutiny of market makers, hedge funds and soft dollar practices by the regulatory and legislative authorities, including a recently passed SEC regulation
related to the registration of hedge funds. New legislation or modifications to existing regulations and rules could occur in the future.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | There has been a growing trend among institutions to allocate more of their assets to hedge fund investments. This has influenced the growth in the hedge fund industry and may
result in greater competition in the future.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Income
Statement Items



The following section briefly
describes the key components of, and drivers to, our significant revenues and expenses from continuing operations.



Revenues



Our revenues consist principally of Net trading revenue and Commissions and fees from U.S. securities trading and market-making activities from Equity
Markets. These revenues are primarily affected by changes in the amount and mix of U.S. equity trade and share volumes, our revenue capture, dollar value of equities traded, our ability to derive trading gains by taking proprietary positions,
changes in our execution standards, volatility in the marketplace, industry commission levels, our mix of broker-dealer and institutional clients, and regulatory changes and evolving industry customs and practices.



Trading profits and losses on principal transactions are included within Net
trading revenue. Revenues on transactions for which we charge explicit commissions or commission equivalents are included within Commissions and fees. For the



20

##### Table of Contents

majority of our institutional client orders, we currently charge an explicit fee in the form of commissions or
commission-equivalents. In the fourth quarter of 2004, we changed the classification of certain transaction-related regulatory fees. These fees are now included within Execution and clearance fees. In prior periods, these fees were netted within Net
trading revenue. This change in classification had no impact on the calculation of the average revenue capture per dollar value traded metric, as the expense is still included within the calculation. We believe this change is consistent with
industry practice. As a result, prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The transaction-related regulatory fees were $4.7 million and $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively.



We also receive fees for providing certain
information to market data providers and for directing trades to certain destinations for execution. Commissions and fees are primarily affected by changes in our equity transaction volumes with institutional clients, changes in commission rates,
the growth of our soft dollar and commission recapture activity as well as by changes in fees earned for directing trades to certain destinations for execution.



Asset management fees represent fees earned by Deephaven Capital Management LLC (Deephaven) for sponsoring and managing the Deephaven
Funds. These fees consist of annual management fees, calculated as fixed percentages of assets under management, and incentive fees, which, in general, are calculated as a percentage of the funds annual returns. Such fees are primarily
affected by the rates of return earned on the Deephaven Funds and changes in the amount of assets under management.



We earn interest income from our cash held at banks and cash held in trading accounts at clearing brokers. The Companys clearing agreements call for
payment or receipt of interest income, net of transaction-related interest charged by clearing brokers for facilitating the settlement and financing of securities transactions. Net interest is primarily affected by interest rates, the changes in
cash balances held at banks and clearing brokers and our level of securities positions in which we are long compared to our securities positions in which we are short.



Investment income and other income primarily represents income earned, net of losses, related to our corporate investment in
the Deephaven Funds and our strategic investments. Such income is primarily affected by the rates of return earned by the Deephaven Funds as well as the performance and activity of our strategic investments.



Expenses



Our operating expenses largely consist of Employee compensation and
benefits, Execution and clearance fees, Soft dollar and commission recapture payments and Payments for order flow. Employee compensation and benefits expense fluctuates, for the most part, based on changes in our revenues, our profitability and the
number of employees. Execution and clearance fees primarily fluctuate based on changes in equity trade and share volume, clearance fees charged by clearing brokers and fees paid to access ECNs, exchanges and certain regulatory bodies. Soft dollar
and commission recapture payments fluctuate based on U.S. equity share volume executed on behalf of institutions. Payments for order flow fluctuate based on U.S. equity share volume, profitability, the mix of market orders and limit orders, the mix
of orders received from broker-dealers and institutions who accept payments for order flow and changes in our payment for order flow policy.



Employee compensation and benefits expense primarily consists of salaries and wages paid to all employees and profitability-based compensation, which
includes compensation paid to sales personnel and incentive compensation paid to all other employees based on our overall profitability. Compensation for employees engaged in sales activities is determined primarily based on a percentage of their
gross revenues net of certain expenses including soft dollar and commission recapture expenses, execution and clearance costs and overhead allocations. The majority of compensation in Asset Management is determined by a profitability-based formula,
subject to certain minimum guaranteed payments.



Execution and
clearance fees primarily represent clearance fees paid to clearing brokers for equities transactions, transaction fees paid to Nasdaq and other regional exchanges and regulatory bodies and execution fees paid to third parties, primarily for
executing trades in listed securities on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and American Stock Exchange (AMEX), and for executing orders through ECNs.



Soft dollar and commission recapture expense represent payments to institutions in connection with our soft dollar and
commission recapture programs.



Payments for order flow
represent payments to broker-dealer clients, in the normal course of business, for directing to us their order flow in U.S. equities. Payments for order flow fluctuate as we modify our payment rates and as the percentage of clients whose policy is
not to accept payments for order flow varies.

Total revenues from the Asset Management business segment, which primarily
consists of Asset management fees, increased 29.1% to $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $14.0 million for the comparable period in 2003. The increase is primarily due to higher management fees as a result of the growth in
assets under management. The average month-end balance of assets under management increased to $3.5 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $2.0 billion for the comparable period in 2004. The increase was offset, slightly, by the
decrease in fund returns. The blended quarterly fund return across all assets under management for the three months ended March 31 2005 was 0.8%, down from 2.0% for the comparable period in 2004.

Total revenues from
our Equity Markets business segment, which primarily comprises Net trading revenue and Commissions and fees from our domestic businesses, decreased 39.3% to $108.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $177.9 million for the
comparable period in 2003. The decrease in revenues was primarily the result of lower volumes and lower revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded. U.S. equity dollar value traded decreased 6.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2005 from
the comparable period in 2004.



Average revenue capture per
U.S. equity dollar value traded was 1.7 basis points (bps) for the first quarter of 2005, down 39.6% from 2.8 bps in the first quarter of 2004. We attribute the decrease in average revenue capture per U.S. dollar value traded to the
difficult market conditions experienced in the first quarter of 2005 as well as an increase in competition over the past year. Average revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded is calculated as the total of net trading revenues less
certain transaction-related regulatory fees (included in Execution and clearance fees) and institutional commissions and commission equivalents (included in Commissions and fees), (collectively, Core Equity Revenues) divided by the total
dollar value of the related equity transactions. Core Equity Revenues were $80.7 million and $143.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

Total revenues from the Corporate segment, which primarily represents income from our corporate
investment in the Deephaven Funds and other strategic investments, increased 79.3%. The increase is primarily due to the sale of a portion of our investment in the ISE. On March 9, 2005, in conjunction with the ISEs initial public offering,
the Company sold approximately 30% of its original equity ownership of the ISE. As a result of the transaction, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $9.6 million. The increase in total revenues from the Corporate segment was offset, in part, by
a decrease in income from our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds. Income from our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds decreased to a loss of $172,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from a gain of $4.8 million for the
comparable period in 2004. The decrease is due to lower average returns on our corporate investment offset, in part, by a higher average investment balance.



Expenses



Employee compensation and benefits expense decreased 12.7% to $56.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $65.1 million for the
comparable period in 2004. As a percentage of total revenue, employee compensation and benefits increased to 41.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from 32.8% in the comparable period in 2004. The decrease on a dollar basis was primarily
due to the decrease in overall profitability as well as a decrease in the number of employees within our continuing operations. Our number of full time employees from our continuing business segments decreased to 671 at March 31, 2005, from 692 full
time employees at March 31, 2004. In addition, we incurred severance costs of $1.9 million and $337,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Execution and clearance fees decreased 37.6% to $23.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $37.8 million
for the comparable period in 2004. As a percentage of total revenue, execution and clearance fees decreased to 17.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from 19.0% for the comparable period in 2004. The decrease on a dollar basis was due to
the decrease in equity trades and a reduction in clearance rates. The decrease as a percentage of total revenue was primarily due to lower clearance rates and higher revenues from Asset Management and Corporate, which have no associated execution
and clearance fees, offset, in part, by a lower average revenue metric in Equity Markets.



Payments for order flow decreased 43.1% to $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $13.0 million for the comparable period in 2004. As a percentage of total revenue, payments for order flow
decreased to 5.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from 6.6% for the comparable period in 2004. The decrease on a dollar basis was due to the decrease in volumes and changes in our payment for order flow policy. The decrease as a
percentage of total revenue was primarily due to higher revenues from Asset Management and Corporate, which have no associated payments for order flow.



Soft dollar and commission recapture expense decreased 1.8% to $15.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $15.8 million for the
comparable period in 2004. The slight decrease is primarily due to the activity related to the Donaldson business.



Communications and data processing expense increased 15.7% to $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $6.8 million for the comparable
period in 2004. This increase was generally attributable to an increase in technology costs related to our Equity Markets business segment.



Depreciation and amortization expense, as restated, increased 9.8% to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $3.9 million for the
comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to additional depreciation and amortization expense related to new fixed assets and leasehold improvements at our new corporate headquarters at 545 Washington Boulevard in Jersey City, which
began to be occupied in the first quarter of 2005. Occupancy and equipment rentals expense, as restated, decreased 5.3% to $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $4.4 million for the comparable period in 2004.



Professional fees increased to $3.8 million for the three months ended March
31, 2005, from $3.4 million for the comparable period in 2004. The increase in 2005 was primarily due to an increase in consulting expenses and legal expenses, which have fluctuated based on the activity surrounding our various legal and regulatory
matters.



Business development expense decreased to $1.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $2.0 million for the comparable period in 2004. The primary reasons for the decrease were lower advertising and travel and entertainment costs.



Other expenses were flat at approximately $2.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These results were due to administrative and other costs remaining consistent over the two time periods.

Our effective income tax rates, from continuing operations, of 41.6% and 40.3% for the three months ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, differ from the federal statutory income tax rate of 35% due primarily to state income taxes.



Discontinued Operations



As of the close of business on December 9, 2004, the Company sold substantially all of the assets and certain of the liabilities that comprised the
Derivative Markets business segment operated by Knight Financial Products LLC and Knight Execution Partners LLC to Citigroup for approximately $237 million in cash. The final purchase price was subject to adjustment based on the final determination
of book value of the Derivative Markets business at the time the deal closed. The decision to sell the Derivative Markets business was based on a review of the overall options industry, the capital and risk required to maintain this business
successfully and the business role in the Companys long term strategy. The (Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations was ($266,000) and $5.9 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. For a further discussion of the sale of the Companys Derivative Markets business, please see Footnote 8 Discontinued Operations included in Part I, Item 1 Financial Statements of
this document.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



Historically, we have financed our business primarily through cash generated
by operations, as well as the proceeds from our stock issuances and, in 2004, from the proceeds from the sale of our Derivative Markets business segment. As of March 31, 2005, we had $1.2 billion in assets related to our continuing operations, 56%
of which consisted of cash or assets readily convertible into cash, principally receivables from brokers and dealers and securities owned. Receivables from brokers and dealers include interest bearing cash balances held with clearing brokers,
including, or net of, amounts related to securities transactions that have not yet reached their contracted settlement date, which is generally within three business days of the trade date. Securities owned principally consist of equity securities
that trade in Nasdaq, on the OTC Bulletin Board and on the NYSE and AMEX markets. At March 31, 2005, the Company had net current assets from continuing operations, as restated, which consists of net assets readily convertible into cash, of
approximately $283.9 million. Additionally, our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds was $315.2 million at March 31, 2005, and was subsequently reduced to $215.2 million on April 1, 2005. The majority of this investment can be liquidated upon
request subject to a ninety-day written notification period and monthly redemption limits, or immediately by invoking our rights as the general partner of the Deephaven Funds.



The Company has previously disclosed its intent to pursue selective acquisitions of (or possible joint ventures with)
complementary businesses primarily in the markets in which our Equity Markets and Asset Management segments operate. We expect to fund the purchase price of any such acquisition with our current cash position or, in some cases, through the issuance
of the Companys stock. In April 2005, the Company announced that it had reached an agreement to acquire, for cash, the business of Direct Trading Institutional, Inc., a privately held firm specializing in providing institutions with direct
market access trading through an advanced electronic platform. Additionally, in May 2005, the Company announced that it had reached an agreement to acquire, for cash, the business of the ATTAIN ECN, an alternative trading system that operates an
electronic communications network (ECN) for the trading of Nasdaq securities. The consummation of each of these transactions is subject to regulatory approval and the satisfaction of certain other customary conditions. No assurance can be given with
respect to the timing, likelihood or business effect of these transactions or any other possible transaction.



As discussed elsewhere in this document, we sold our Derivative Markets business for approximately $237 million in cash as of the close of business on
December 9, 2004. The final purchase price was subject to adjustment based on the final determination of the book value of the Derivative Markets business at the time the deal closed. The final purchase price, in addition to other expenses related
to the sale, was finalized in the first quarter of 2005 and resulted in a loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $266,000 in the first quarter of 2005.



Income from continuing operations before income taxes, as restated, was $10.3 million and $43.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Included in these amounts were certain non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization. Depreciation expense from continuing operations, as restated, was $4.1 million and $3.8 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Amortization expense from continuing operations, which related to intangible assets was $155,000 and $146,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. There were no
non-cash writedowns or charges related to our continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Proceeds from (purchases of) strategic investments were $1.9 million and ($4.5 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds increased by $99.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to an increase of $29.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

##### Table of Contents

The change in the balance of our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds for 2005 primarily relates to the
Companys additional investment of a portion of its proceeds from the sale of the Derivative Markets business of $100.0 million on January 1, 2005. This investment was redeemed by the Company on April 1, 2005, reducing the Companys total
corporate investment to $215.2 million.



Capital expenditures
related to our continuing operations were $13.0 million and $2.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Capital expenditures primarily relate to the purchase of leaseholds and other fixed assets related to the
buildout of our new headquarters at 545 Washington Boulevard in Jersey City, NJ. We began the process of moving our Jersey City, NJ offices to 545 Washington Boulevard during the first quarter of 2005 and anticipate to complete the majority of the
move by the end of the second quarter of 2005. Currently, we estimate that we will spend approximately an additional $9 million related to this move, the majority of which will be for leasehold improvements that will be amortized over the remaining
life of the lease, which ends in October 2021.



At its April
19, 2005 meeting, the Board of Directors authorized an additional increase in the size of the Companys stock repurchase program from $250 million to $320 million. The Company repurchased 6.6 million shares during the first quarter of 2005 for
a total cost of $68.3 million. Through March 31, 2005, the Company had repurchased 28.3 million shares for $219.1 million under its stock repurchase program. The Company may repurchase shares in the open market or through privately negotiated
transactions, depending on prevailing market conditions, alternative uses of capital and other factors. The Company cautions that there are no assurances that any further repurchases may actually occur. The Company had approximately 110.7 million
shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2005.



As registered broker-dealers, Knight Equity Markets, L.P. (KEM) and Knight Capital Markets LLC (KCM) are subject to regulatory requirements intended to ensure the general financial soundness and liquidity of
broker-dealers and requiring the maintenance of minimum levels of net capital, as defined in SEC Rule 15c3-1. These regulations also prohibit a broker-dealer from repaying subordinated borrowings, paying cash dividends, making loans to its parent,
affiliates or employees, or otherwise entering into transactions which would result in a reduction of its total net capital to less than 120.0% of its required minimum capital. Moreover, broker-dealers, including KEM and KCM, are required to notify
the SEC prior to repaying subordinated borrowings, paying dividends and making loans to its parent, affiliates or employees, or otherwise entering into transactions, which, if executed, would result in a reduction of 30.0% or more of its excess net
capital (net capital less minimum requirement). The SEC has the ability to prohibit or restrict such transactions if the result is detrimental to the financial integrity of the broker-dealer. Additionally, Knight Equity Markets International Ltd.
(KEMIL) is subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Financial Services Authority in the United Kingdom. The following table sets forth the net capital levels and requirements for the following significant broker-dealer
subsidiaries at March 31, 2005 (in millions) as filed in their respective regulatory filings:



|       |  |             |       |                    |   |                   |  |   |     
|------ |  | ----------- | ----- | ------------------ | - | ----------------- |  | - | ----
|Entity |  | Net Capital |       | Minimum NetCapital |   | Excess NetCapital
|KEM    |  | $           | 104.1 |                    | $ | 4.8               |  | $ | 99.3
|KCM    |  |             | 32.1  |                    |   | 3.6               |  |   | 28.5
|KEMIL  |  |             | 18.3  |                    |   | 6.8               |  |   | 11.5



We have no long-term
debt at March 31, 2005 nor do we currently have any material long-term debt commitments for the rest of 2005. We currently anticipate that available cash resources and credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and
capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



As of March
31, 2005, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303 (a) (4) (ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.



Critical Accounting Policies



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. We believe that, of our significant
accounting policies, the following policies involve a higher degree of judgment.



Lease Loss AccrualIt is the Companys policy to identify excess real estate capacity and, where applicable, accrue against such future costs. In determining the accrual, a nominal cash flow analysis
is performed for lease losses initiated prior to December 31, 2002, the effective date of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities(which requires
the accrual of future costs to be made using a discounted cash flow analysis for lease losses initiated after such date), and costs related to the excess capacity are accrued. Based on the results of an analysis of the current accrual and market
conditions, which was performed during the period, no additional



25

##### Table of Contents

accrual was recorded in the first quarter of 2005. The majority of the lease loss accrual charges taken to date is
related to a portion of our lease at 545 Washington Boulevard in Jersey City, New Jersey, encompassing approximately 78,000 square feet, all of which is unoccupied. The Company engaged a real estate broker in order to sub-lease this excess space
based on an assessment of our real estate needs. The analysis of our accrual was derived from assumptions and estimates based on lease terms of projected sub-lease agreements, which assumed a sub-lease will have commenced at the beginning of 2006,
anticipated market prices along the Jersey City waterfront and estimated up-front costs, including broker fees and build out allowances. We continually monitor the market and space to assess the reasonableness of our applicable assumptions.



Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible AssetsThe
useful lives of goodwill and intangible assets are determined upon acquisition. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective lives. Goodwill and the useful lives of intangible assets are tested for impairment, at a minimum, on an annual
basis, or when an event occurs or circumstances change that signify the existence of impairment.



Our Goodwill related to continuing operations of $19.2 million as of March 31, 2005 is related to the purchase of our listed equities market maker, KCM,
the business of Donaldson and the purchase of the shares of the minority investors in Knight Roundtable Europe Limited, our subsidiary that owns KEMIL. During our annual tests for impairment done in 2004, it was determined that these assets were not
impaired. As part of our test for impairment, we considered the profitability of the applicable reporting unit, an assessment of fair value of the reporting unit based on various valuation methodologies, as well as the overall market value of the
Company, compared to the Companys book value.



Our
Intangible assets related to continuing operations of $11.4 million as of March 31, 2005 is attributable to our Equity Markets business segment. The balance is primarily related to our acquisition of the business of Donaldson. These assets are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, which have been determined to range from five to thirty years. During our annual tests for impairment done in 2004, it was determined that there was no impairment to these intangible
assets.



We plan on performing the annual tests for impairment
of goodwill and the useful lives of intangible assets for 2005 during the second quarter.



Strategic InvestmentsInvestments include ownership interests of less than 20% in financial services-related businesses, which are accounted for under the equity method or at fair value. The equity method
of accounting is used for investments in limited partnerships and limited liability corporations. The fair value of investments, recorded in the Companys broker-dealer subsidiaries, for which a quoted market or dealer price is not available
for the size of our investment is based on managements estimate. Among the factors considered by management in determining the fair value of investments are the cost of the investment, terms and liquidity, developments since the acquisition of
the investment, the sales price of recently issued securities, the financial condition and operating results of the issuer, earnings trends and consistency of operating cash flows, the long-term business potential of the issuer, the quoted market
price of securities with similar quality and yield that are publicly traded, and other factors generally pertinent to the valuation of investments. The fair value of these investments is subject to a high degree of volatility and may be susceptible
to significant fluctuations in the near term. The valuations of strategic investments, which include our investments in Nasdaq and the International Securities Exchange, are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure that the carrying values of the
investment have not been impaired.



Investments that are
classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net of applicable taxes, in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax within Stockholders Equity on the
Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.



Investments
not recorded in the Companys broker-dealer subsidiaries which do not have a readily determinable fair value, are recorded at amortized cost.



Market-Making ActivitiesSecurities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased, which primarily consist of listed and OTC stocks, are
carried at market value and are recorded on a trade date basis. Market value is estimated daily using market quotations available from major securities exchanges and dealers.



Asset Management FeesThe Company earns asset management fees for sponsoring and managing the Deephaven Funds.
Such fees are recorded monthly as earned and are calculated as a percentage of the Deephaven Funds monthly net assets, plus a percentage of a new high net asset value (the Incentive Allocation Fee), as defined, for any six month
period ended June 30th or December 31st. A new high net asset value is defined as the amount by which the net asset value of the Deephaven Funds exceeds the greater of either the highest previous net asset value in the Deephaven Funds or the net
asset value at the time each investor made his purchase. The Incentive Allocation Fee may increase or decrease during the year based on the performance of the Deephaven Funds. If Deephavens Market Neutral Fund, which contains the majority of
the assets under management, recognizes a loss in the second half of a calendar year, the Incentive Allocation Fee is recalculated on an annual rather than a semi-annual basis. As such, the Incentive Allocation Fee may be negative for certain
periods, but not lower than zero on a year-to-date basis.



26

##### Table of Contents

Writedown of Fixed AssetsWritedowns of fixed assets are recognized when it is determined
that the fixed assets are no longer actively used and are determined to be impaired. The amount of the impairment is determined by the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the fixed asset. In determining the impairment, an
estimated fair value is obtained through research and inquiry of the market. Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis.



Other EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may
differ from those estimates. In addition to the estimates noted in this section, the Company uses estimates in determining compensation and benefits expense for interim periods and in determining provisions for potential losses that may arise from
litigation and regulatory proceedings.



A portion of our
Employee compensation and benefits expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations represents discretionary bonuses, generally determined at year end and paid in the subsequent months. Among many factors, discretionary bonus accruals, in
general, are influenced by the Companys overall performance and competitive industry compensation levels. Therefore, for each interim period, we accrue an amount based on this analysis.



We estimate and accrue for potential losses that may arise out of litigation
and regulatory proceedings to the extent that such losses are probable and can be estimated in accordance with SFAS No. 5 Accounting for Contingencies. The amount accrued is determined on a case-by-case basis and represents an estimate of
probable losses based on, among other factors, the progress of each case, our experience with and industry experience with similar cases and the opinions and views of legal counsel. As such, the total amount accrued may be materially different from
the final outcome of such matters. For more information on our legal and regulatory issues, see Legal Proceedings in Part I, Item 3 of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and Part II, Item 1 included in this document.



Recently Issued Accounting Standards



In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued a FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN No. 46 requires a company to consolidate a variable interest entity (VIE) if the company has variable interests that give it a
majority of the expected losses or a majority of the expected residual returns of the entity. Prior to FIN No. 46, VIEs were commonly referred to as SPEs. In October 2003, the FASB deferred the effective date of FIN No. 46 for pre-existing VIEs to
no later than February 2004. In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to FIN No. 46 (FIN No. 46-R), which incorporated the October 2003 deferral provisions and clarified and revised the accounting guidance for VIEs. As the Company does not have
any VIEs, the adoption of this statement had no effect on our financial statements.



In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision to SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, SFAS No. 123-R, Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123-R focuses primarily on transactions in which an
entity exchanges its equity instruments for employee services. SFAS No. 123-R eliminates the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board No. 25 as an alternative method of accounting for stock-based awards. Additionally SFAS No. 123-R
clarifies SFAS No. 123s guidance in several areas including measuring fair value, classifying an award as equity or as a liability and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. In April 2005, the SEC amended the effective date of
compliance for FAS 123-R. This statement is effective for the fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company plans on adopting the provisions of this statement for 2006 and is currently evaluating the effect of adoption of the statement,
but does not expect adoption to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.



Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



Our market-making and trading activities expose our capital to significant risks. These risks include, but are not limited to, absolute and relative price
movements, price volatility and changes in liquidity, over which we have virtually no control.



For working capital purposes, we invest in money market funds, commercial paper and government securities or maintain interest-bearing balances in our trading accounts with clearing brokers, which are classified as
cash and cash equivalents and receivable from clearing brokers, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. These other amounts do not have maturity dates or present a material market risk, as the balances are short-term in
nature and subject to daily repricing. Our cash and cash equivalents held in foreign currencies are subject to the exposure of foreign currency fluctuations. These balances are monitored daily, and are not material to the Companys overall cash
position.

##### Table of Contents

In Equity Markets, we employ automated proprietary trading and position management systems that provide
real-time, on-line position management and inventory control. We monitor our risks by reviewing trading positions and their appropriate risk measures. We have established a system whereby transactions are monitored by senior management on a
real-time basis as are individual and aggregate dollar and inventory position totals and real-time profits and losses. The management of trading positions is enhanced by review of mark-to-market valuations and position summaries on a daily basis.



In the normal course of our equities market-making business,
we maintain inventories of exchange-listed and OTC equity securities. The fair value of these securities at March 31, 2005 and 2004 was $270.9 million and $314.8 million, respectively, in long positions and $226.0 million and $270.5 million,
respectively, in short positions. The potential change in fair value, using a hypothetical 10.0% decline in prices, is estimated to be a $4.5 million loss and a $4.4 million loss as of March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, due to the offset of
gains in short positions with the losses in long positions.



As
of March 31, 2005, we had a $315.2 million corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds, $294.6 million of which was invested in the Market Neutral Fund. We invested $100 million in the Market Neutral Fund on January 1, 2005. This additional
investment was redeemed by the Company on April 1, 2005. The general objective of market neutral investment strategies is to capture mispricings or spreads between related capital instruments. Within the Market Neutral Fund, Deephaven employs a
variety of market neutral investment strategies, including convertible arbitrage, event arbitrage, relative value equity, distressed debt and private placements in public companies. Because the primary basis of the Deephaven Funds market
neutral strategy is capturing mispricings or spreads between related instruments, rather than attempting to predict or follow absolute price movements, the performance of the Market Neutral Fund is expected to be substantially non-correlated with
the general debt and equity markets, as well as with a number of other non-traditional investment strategies. However, there will be unhedged credit risk in the convertible arbitrage portfolio and that part of the portfolio will have some
correlation to credit spreads. Market neutral trading strategies also involve other substantial risks such as the disruption in historical pricing relationships and the risk of a tightening of dealer credit, forcing the premature liquidation of
positions. The Deephaven Funds also utilize leverage, to the extent available and deemed by Deephaven to be consistent with the Funds risk/reward objectives, in an attempt to increase returns while maintaining strict risk controls.



The Deephaven Funds employ automated proprietary trading and position
management systems that provide position management and inventory control. We monitor our risks by reviewing trading positions and their appropriate risk measures. We have established a system whereby transactions are monitored by management and an
independent risk control function, as are individual and aggregate dollar and inventory position totals and profits and losses by strategy. The management of trading positions is enhanced by review of mark-to-market valuations and position
summaries. There can be no assurances that the Deephaven Funds strategy will be successful in achieving either its risk control or its profit objectives.



Item 4. Controls and Procedures



As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) during the last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.



As indicated in Footnote 2 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Company has restated its financial statements to correct its method of accounting for certain property lease transactions (Lease Accounting Adjustments). In coming to the conclusion that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures and the internal control over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2004, management considered the guidance in the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard (PCAOB) No. 2; the Securities
and Exchange Commissions Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 99, Materiality, Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting paragraph 29 and SAB Topic 5-F, Accounting Changes
Not Retroactively Applied Due to Immateriality.



Managements evaluation of the impact of the Lease Accounting Adjustments took into consideration the following: (i) as of March 31, 2005, the Company had no other significant deficiencies in disclosure controls or procedures, internal
controls over financial reporting or the selection and application of accounting policies; (ii) the restatement adjustment to post-tax GAAP net income is not material to the interim financial statements for the three month period ended March 31,
2005; and (iii) the Company decided to restate previously issued financial statements solely because the cumulative impact of



28

##### Table of Contents

the Lease Accounting Adjustments, if recorded in the current period, would have been material to the current
periods reported net earnings. Based on its review and analysis, our management concluded that the control deficiency that resulted in the restatement of the prior period financial statements due to the Lease Accounting Adjustments was not in
itself a material weakness and that when aggregated with other deficiencies did not constitute a material weakness.



PART II OTHER INFORMATION



Item 1. Legal Proceedings



From
time to time, we and certain of our past and present officers, directors and employees have been named as parties to legal actions, securities arbitrations, administrative claims and regulatory reviews and investigations arising in connection with
the conduct of our businesses. We are also subject to several of these matters at the present time. Although there can be no assurances, at this time the Company believes, based on information currently available, that the outcome of each of the
matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company, although they might be material to operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon operating results for that period.

handling procedures. The Company makes these changes while continuously endeavoring to comply with many complex laws and rules. Compliance, surveillance or trading issues, common in the securities industry, and which are monitored or reported to the
SEC or SROs, are reviewed in the ordinary course of business by our primary regulators, the SEC and the NASD. The Company, as a major order flow execution destination, is named from time to time in, or is asked to respond to a number of regulatory
matters brought by SROs that arise from its trading activity. The Company is currently the subject of various regulatory reviews and investigations. In some instances, these matters may rise to an SEC or SRO disciplinary action and/or civil or
administrative action.
