Press Release

TRADING STATEMENT for the quarter ended 30 September 2019

Key points

-- Funds under management (FUM) of $112.7 billion at 30 September 2019 (30 June 2019: $114.4 billion)

o Positive investment movement of $0.7 billion in the quarter

o Net outflows of $1.1 billion in the quarter

o FX and other impacts of negative $1.3 billion in the quarter

   --    $150 million Tier 2 notes redeemed on 16 September 2019 with an annualised interest saving of approximately $4.5 million 

-- Completion of the $100 million share repurchase announced in 2018 earlier this month, bringing the total amount repurchased since 2014 to $0.7 billion

-- Intention to repurchase up to $100 million of shares; we will continue to review further potential acquisition opportunities

Luke Ellis, Chief Executive Officer of Man Group, said:

"In the third quarter, we saw a continuation of the trends experienced in the first half of the year with strong absolute performance and inflows into our quant alternative strategies, and outflows from our long only equity strategies. FX moves were negative in the quarter, which led to an overall dip in FUM to $112.7 billion, but year to date assets are up 4%.

"As we look ahead, we are encouraged by our good performance fee earning potential, although uncertain economic conditions mean the outlook for flows remains mixed. The diversified nature of the business means that we remain well positioned and, given our continued strong cash generation, we are pleased to announce a further return of capital."

THIRD QUARTER FUM COMMENTARY

In the three months to 30 September 2019, FUM decreased 1% to $112.7 billion driven by net outflows of $1.1 billion (comprising sales of $6.6 billion and redemptions of $7.7 billion) and negative FX and other movements of $1.3 billion, partially offset by positive investment movement of $0.7 billion.

ALTERNATIVE

Absolute return

Absolute return FUM increased by $0.4 billion in the quarter. Flows were broadly flat, with inflows into AHL Institutional Solutions and AHL Alpha offset by outflows from Man GLG's equity and credit strategies. Positive investment movement of $0.6 billion was driven by positive performance at Man AHL (Dimension +2.8%, Alpha +4.1% and Diversified +5.9%). Negative FX and other movements of $0.1 billion were driven by the US dollar strengthening against the Australian dollar and the euro, partially offset by positive leverage movements. As we have previously indicated, the management fee margin in this category continues to decline due to the ongoing mix shift towards institutional assets, which are at a lower margin. As at 30 September 2019: 72% of Man AHL performance fee eligible FUM was at or above high watermark ($13.3 billion of which crystallises in the second half of the year) and 20% was within 5% of high watermark; 36% of Man GLG performance fee eligible FUM was at or above high watermark and 34% was within 5% of high watermark.

Total return

Total return FUM increased by $0.4 billion during the quarter. Net flows of $0.6 billion included inflows into diversified risk premia and TargetRisk strategies, partially offset by outflows from the EM debt total return strategy. The investment movement of $0.3 billion was driven by positive performance in diversified risk premia and TargetRisk strategies. FX and other movements of negative $0.5 billion were due to the US dollar strengthening against sterling and the euro.

Multi-manager solutions

Multi-manager solutions FUM increased to $13.9 billion during the quarter. Net inflows of $0.2 billion comprised flows into segregated portfolios. Positive investment performance contributed $0.2 billion. The management fee margin in this category continues to decline due to the continued mix shift towards managed account mandates and the decline in legacy fund of fund assets.

LONG ONLY

Systematic

Systematic long only FUM decreased by 5% in the quarter. Net outflows of $0.8 billion, driven by redemptions from the Small Cap and Emerging Markets Core strategies, were partially offset by subscriptions into Global Core. The outflows were at a higher margin than the average for the category and this will have a negative impact on the net management fee margin in H2 2019. Negative investment performance in Man Numeric's emerging market strategies drove the negative $0.4 billion of investment movement. FX movements of negative $0.2 billion were due to the dollar strengthening against the euro.

Discretionary

Discretionary long only FUM decreased by $1.4 billion in the quarter. The net outflows of $0.9 billion were from Japanese and US equity strategies. Investment movement was flat with positive performance from Japan CoreAlpha offset by negative performance from continental Europe and emerging markets fixed income strategies. FX movements of negative $0.5 billion were due to the dollar strengthening against sterling and the euro.

       USD Shares from 3 July 2006 to 31 May 2014, and by AHL Dimension 
       (Cayman) Ltd - F USD Shares Class from 1 June 2014 until 28 February 
       2015 when AHL Dimension (Cayman) Ltd - A USD Shares Class is used. 
       Representative fees of 1.5% Management Fee and 20% Performance Fee 
       have been applied. 
      2. Represented by AHL Alpha plc from 17 October 1995 to 30 September 
       2012, and by AHL Strategies PCC Limited: Class Y AHL Alpha USD Shares 
       from 1 October 2012 to 30 September 2013. The representative product 
       was changed at the end of September 2012 due to the provisioning 
       of fund liquidation costs in October 2012 for AHL Alpha plc, which 
       resulted in tracking error compared with other Alpha Programme funds. 
       Both funds are valued weekly; however, for comparative purposes, 
       statistics have been calculated using the best quality price that 
       is available at each calendar month end, using estimates where a 
       final price is unavailable. Where a price, either estimate or final 
       is unavailable on a calendar month end, the price on the closest 
       date prior to the calendar month end has been used. Both of the track 
       records have been adjusted to reflect the fee structure of AHL Alpha 
       (Cayman) Limited - USD Shares. From 30 September 2013, the actual 
       performance of AHL Alpha (Cayman) Limited - USD Shares is displayed.

       2012, the track record of AHL (Cayman) SPC: Class A1 Evolution USD 
       Shares has been shown. All returns shown are net of fees. 
      4. Represented by Man AHL Diversified plc from 26 March 1996 to 29 
       October 2012, and by Man AHL Diversified (Guernsey) USD Shares - 
       Class A from 30 October 2012 to date. The representative product 
       was changed at the end of October 2012 due to legal and/or regulatory 
       restrictions on Man AHL Diversified plc preventing the product from 
       accessing the Programme's revised target allocations. Both funds 
       are valued weekly; however, for comparative purposes, statistics 
       have been calculated using the best quality price that is available 
       at each calendar month end, using estimates where a final price is 
       unavailable. Where a price, either estimate or final is unavailable 
       on a calendar month end, the price on the closest date prior to the 
       calendar month end has been used. 
      5. Represented by GLG European Long Short Fund - Class D Restricted

       pro forma using the following methodology: i) for the period Jan 
       1998 to Dec 2003, by using the returns of Absolute Alpha Fund PCC 
       Limited - Diversified Series Share Cell ('AA Diversified - USD') 
       adjusted for fees and/or currency, where applicable. For the period 
       Jan 2004 to Feb 2004, the returns of the fund's master portfolio 
       have been used, adjusted for fees and/or currency, where applicable. 
       Post Feb 2004, the fund's actual performance has been used, which 
       may differ from the calculated performance of the track record. There 
       have been occasions where the 12-months' performance to date of FRM 
       Diversified II has differed materially from that of AA Diversified. 
       Strategy and holdings data relates to the composition of the master 
       portfolio.
