WHERE ARE WE NOW?
• Core asset management earnings roughly flat, with 14%
AHEPS decline primarily due to:
• Lower brokerage revenues
• Loss of Astoria income
• Core asset management revenues a function of:
• Strong inflows
• Bias towards lower margin products
• Average local market levels down 7%
• Astoria termination income statement (AHEPS) negative (+/-
12%), but adds R70m cash to balance sheet – we now have
R172m of cash and investments and need to find ways to
deploy this

2019 EARNINGS DRIVEN BY …
The key driver for the business is assets under management,
which were R54bn at 30 June 2019. The results for the
remainder of the year will also be influenced by:
• The performance of local and global markets and Anchor’s
relative performance;
• The impact on assets under management from a larger
distribution force;
• The exchange rate between the Rand and other currencies
(we estimate across the business, the Rand hedge
component is approximately 50%);
• The growth of the new stockbroking division, and
• An increase in shares in issue (+/-3% impact before share
buybacks).
We are building a business which is sustainably growing AUM.
The flow through to the bottom line will vary through the cycle,
but we are aiming for meaningful growth over time.
