INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT
26 January 2011
QUARTER ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2010
Charles Stanley Group PLC is pleased to announce that its revenue for the three months to 31 December 2010, the third quarter of its financial year 2010/11, was 13.7% higher, at £32.3 million, than the comparable figure of £28.4 million for the three months to 31 December 2009.
The second six months started strongly and the Group has seen a good performance across all three divisions.
Total client funds under management and administration rose during the quarter by 5.9% from £13.5 billion at 30 September 2010 to £14.3 billion at 31 December 2010. Within this figure the funds under discretionary management increased by 9.8% from £4.1 billion to £4.5 billion. For the same period, the FTSE 100 strengthened by 6.3% from 5549 to 5900 and the FTSE APCIMS Balanced Portfolio Index by 4.7%.
On 20 January 2011 the Financial Services Compensation Scheme ("FSCS") issued a press release announcing a second interim levy for 2010/11 for the costs of major investment failures. We have now received invoices from the Financial Services Authority setting out the allocation of this interim levy. The FSCS levy for 2010/11 for the Group totals £2.6 million of which £204,000 had been provided in our interim results for the six months to 30 September 2010.
Despite this, trading continues at good levels and while it is difficult to see very far ahead we feel a degree of optimism about the final quarter.
