London Stock Exchange Group Plc Interim Management Statement For The Period To 17 July 2012, Including Revenues And KPIs For The Three Months Ended 30 June 2012 (Q1)

Date 18/07/2012
- Good Group performance achieved against backdrop of testing markets - total income up 10 per cent on Q1 last year at £209.5 million
- Information Services revenues rose 68 per cent, reflecting the benefits of the FTSE acquisition; up 2 per cent on an organic constant currency basis, with increased revenue from other information products offsetting declines in real time data income
- Post Trade Services total income remained resilient (and on a constant currency basis increased 8 per cent), reflecting good growth in treasury management income offset by a reduction in clearing and settlement revenues following lower trading in the period
- Capital Markets revenues decreased 15 per cent following subdued primary market activity (compared with a strong equivalent quarter last year), together with a slowdown in secondary market trading as markets continued to be affected by macro economic uncertainties
- MillenniumIT successfully went live on three markets in three continents during the period: five different trading platforms, including cash equities, fixed income and structured products at Borsa Italiana, now hosted in Milan, successfully migrated to Millennium Exchange; Johannesburg Stock Exchange and the Mongolian Stock Exchange also went live on MillenniumIT
- Regulatory and anti-trust processes are continuing in respect of the shareholder approved acquisition of 60 per cent stake in LCH.Clearnet; the competition authorities in the UK, Spain and Portugal are reviewing the proposed transaction.
