Caption from analyzed text · version F.

Summary

Rebates come off revenue. No such exchange operates in Texas today, per the pitch.

The bill lets a registered stock or securities exchange leave out of its Texas franchise tax revenue the rebates it pays to brokers and dealers for adding trading volume to the market. It touches only exchange operators registered with federal securities or commodities regulators and classed under one industry code, and no such exchange operates in Texas today, according to the pitch. Starting with franchise tax reports due on or after January 1, 2026, those operators pay tax on revenue after subtracting the rebates, which lowers their tax bill.
