Stock Exchange Announcement

LIONTRUST ASSET MANAGEMENT PLC

Trading Update

Liontrust Asset Management Plc ("Liontrust"), the specialist independent fund management group, today issues a trading update for the period from 1 October to 31 December 2018 (the "Period").

Highlights

-- Assets under management ("AuM") were GBP11.2 billion as at close of business on 31 December 2018 (30 September 2018: GBP12.0 billion).

-- Net inflows of GBP471 million in the three months ended 31 December 2018 and GBP1,194 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2018.

Commenting, John Ions, Chief Executive, said:

"Liontrust has continued to generate strong sales, with a successful last three months of 2018 delivering GBP471 million of net inflows. Liontrust has now recorded net inflows of GBP1.19 billion since the start of the financial year on 1 April 2018.

This has been achieved despite the challenging environment for equities and bonds in the latter part of 2018. The level of positive sales is testament to our broader fund management capability, robust investment processes, the ongoing attraction of truly active fund management and the power of our distribution.

Through the addition of the Global Fixed Income team of David Roberts and Phil Milburn from Kames Capital and Donald Phillips from Baillie Gifford last year and the Sustainable Investment team from Alliance Trust Investments in 2017, we have further diversified both the asset classes we manage and our client base. This diversification has helped to increase sales in the current financial year and is providing greater stability during volatile markets.

The Liontrust UK Micro Cap Fund, which is managed by the Economic Advantage team and will celebrate its three-year anniversary in March, demonstrates the added value that active management can provide investors. The Fund was the top performer in the IA UK Smaller Companies sector in 2018, delivering a positive return of 3.05%. In comparison, the return of the average fund in the sector was -11.70%.*

The experience, track record and robust investment processes of our fund management teams, along with the strength of our distribution, service and administration, give me great confidence that Liontrust is well positioned for the future, however challenging and unpredictable it may be."
