TP ICAP Group plc

Financial and preliminary management report for the year ended 31 December 2022

Nicolas Breteau, CEO of the Group, said:

"We delivered a strong performance: high single-digit revenue growth and an increase in profitability. Significant monetary tightening in many economies benefited Rates, our largest business.

Our transformation is going well. We have made good progress rolling out Fusion, our electronic platform, and are working with clients to embed it across their systems. Energy & Commodities has received FCA registration on its spot crypto assets platform and is expanding its Environmentals business. Parameta Solutions is growing its client, product and distribution base. A partnership to provide independent fair valuations of OTC derivatives - a growing market segment - is being launched today with Numerix, a global OTC analytics firm. Liquidnet is building out its Primary Markets offering, and the D2C Credit proposition is live.

Capital management is an important part of our strategy. We committed to freeing up £100m of cash, and reducing debt, by the end of 2023. Progress has been good with over £30m already freed up in H2 2022. In addition, as previously announced, we continue to focus on identifying, and returning, any potential surplus capital to shareholders, subject to the ongoing assessment of our balance sheet and investment requirements. The Board is recommending a final dividend per share of 7.9 pence, which would bring the total for the year to 12.4 pence, a 31% increase.

We have a clear strategic roadmap and a strong franchise. Our market-leading positions in broking, and our deep liquidity pools, mean we are well positioned as central banks continue to withdraw liquidity and interest rates remain elevated."

A table reconciling Reported to Adjusted figures is included in the Financial and Operating Review on page 14.

The percentage movements referred to in the sections below are in constant currency (unless otherwise indicated), to reflect the underlying performance of the business, before the impact of foreign exchange movements year-on-year. Constant currency refers to prior year comparatives being retranslated at current year foreign exchange rates. Percentage movements in reported currency reflect the strengthening of the USD against GBP, which has been a tailwind for the Group in 2022. Approximately 60% of the Group's revenue (and approximately 40% of costs) are US Dollar denominated.

Dividend

The Board recommends a final dividend per share of 7.9 pence, bringing the total full year dividend to

12.4 pence per share, up 31% (2021: 9.5 pence per share), in line with our policy. The policy targets dividend cover of c.2x on adjusted post-tax earnings: a 50% pay-out ratio for the year.

Outlook

Our market-leading businesses, and our focus on transformation, diversification and dynamic capital management, mean the Group is well positioned to benefit from the continued withdrawal of central bank liquidity. We expect the impact of inflation on our business in 2023 to be broadly mitigated by our ongoing focus on cost efficiencies.

Global interest rates are expected to remain elevated in 2023; we expect that volumes will continue to be solid, but moderated from the peaks at the beginning of the war in Ukraine. The recent decline in the European gas price has supported a more liquid, and stable, market so far this year. A sustained recovery continues to depend on geopolitical developments.
