Investec (comprising Investec plc and Investec Limited) - Unaudited combined consolidated financial results for the year ended 31 March 2022
Group results summary for the year ended 31 March 2022 (FY2022) compared to 31 March 2021 (FY2021)
• Adjusted earnings per share increased 90.7% to 55.1p (FY2021: 28.9p) at the top end of previous guidance and ahead of comparable pre-COVID levels.
• Funds under management (FUM) increased 9.2% to £63.8 billion (31 March 2021: £58.4 billion) underpinned by net inflows of £1.9 billion and improved market levels. Market volatility in the last quarter negatively impacted FUM at year end.
• Net core loans grew 13.2% to £29.9 billion (31 March 2021: £26.4 billion) driven largely by residential mortgage and corporate lending growth in both geographies.
• Revenue grew 21.3% as our franchises effectively supported our clients and benefitted from post-pandemic economic recovery.
• The cost to income ratio improved to 63.3% (FY2021: 70.9%) with the increase in fixed operating expenditure well contained at 1.1%. Operating costs increased 6.0% overall, largely driven by higher variable remuneration.
• Pre-provision adjusted operating profit increased 50.1% to £716.2 million (FY2021: £477.0 million), 15.7% ahead of March 2019 (pre-COVID).
• The credit loss ratio improved to 8bps (FY2021: 35bps). Expected credit loss impairment charges were 71.0% lower, due to limited default experience in both geographies, and good recoveries in South Africa. The Group has maintained a level of post-model overlays given the uncertain economic outlook.
• Return on equity (ROE) was 11.4% (FY2021: 6.6%) and return on tangible equity (ROTE) was 12.3% (FY2021: 7.2%).
• Tangible net asset value (TNAV) per share increased 12.5% to 476.6p (31 March 2021: 423.6p). Net asset value (NAV) per share increased 11.4% to 510.0p (31 March 2021: 458.0p).
• Maintained strong capital and liquidity positions to support growth. On full adoption of the advanced internal ratings based (AIRB) approach, Investec Limited's CET1 ratio at 31 March 2022 would on a pro forma basis increase by 200bps to c.16%, expanding capital optionality.
• Shareholders approved the distribution of 15% of Ninety One.
• The Board has proposed a final dividend of 14.0p per share, resulting in a full year dividend of 25.0p per share (FY2021: 13.0p). The payout ratio of 45.4% is within the Group's 30% to 50% payout range.
Fani Titi, Group Chief Executive commented:
"The Group's performance for the 2022 financial year is testament to the strength of our client franchises, disciplined strategic execution, and the commitment of our people to support our clients. We achieved adjusted earnings per share of 55.1p which is at the top end of previous guidance and ahead of comparable pre-COVID levels. Post-pandemic economic recovery supported these results.
With the pending distribution of 15% of Ninety One to shareholders, Investec would have returned an aggregate value of approximately £1.6 billion or c.R32 billion (per Ninety One closing share price on 16 May 2022) to shareholders through the demerger and distribution on successful completion.
I am also pleased that the Board has proposed a final divided of 14p per share resulting in a full year dividend of 25p per share.
We have strong liquidity and capital to support growth, with significant capital optionality in South Africa. We remain committed to our medium-term targets.
The Group is well positioned to serve its carefully chosen client base and continues to navigate the uncertain outlook emanating from ongoing inflationary pressures and the economic effects of the invasion of Ukraine."

Distribution of 15% holding in Ninety One
On 28 April 2022, shareholders approved the proposed distribution of 15% of Ninety One (34p per share, per Ninety One closing share price on 16 May 2022). The distribution is expected to be effective on 30 May 2022, subject to final scheme approval by the court.
Outlook
The Group continues to successfully navigate the uncertain macro backdrop that has persisted since the onset of the pandemic and has made significant progress against the strategic goals outlined at the 2019 Capital Markets Day. We have a strong balance sheet and robust liquidity levels, firmly committed to our medium-term targets, and are well positioned to pursue growth opportunities in our chosen markets.
The expected slowdown in global growth given high levels of global inflation and increased geopolitical tensions present a downside risk to current economic forecasts.
FY2023 guidance:
Based on financial performance for FY2022, current business momentum and a macro-economic outlook with elevated forecast risk in the short term, the Group currently expects:
• The revenue outlook to be underpinned by higher average interest rates supporting margins, higher average lending books and increased activity levels given expected GDP growth.
• The cost to income ratio to be within the Group target of <63%, notwithstanding inflationary pressures and continued investment in technology.
• Normalisation of expected credit loss impairment charges and consequent credit loss ratio increase towards the Group's revised through-the-cycle (TTC) range of 25-35bps, with South Africa's TTC range calibrated between 20bps and 30bps, and the UK between 30bps and 40bps.
• The distribution of Ninety One to result in a 65bps reduction in Investec Limited's CET1 ratio and to have an immaterial impact on Investec plc. The attributable contribution to adjusted earnings per share was c.3.4p for FY2022.
• South Africa to continue to operate with a surplus capital position given excess capital generation and the anticipated CET1 uplift on full implementation of AIRB.
• Improvement in ROE towards the 12-16% Group target range, which we expect to achieve by FY2024. This will be aided by capital management initiatives.

Group financial performance
Overview
Pre-provision adjusted operating profit for FY2022 increased, supported by continued client acquisition, increased client activity, growth in FUM and higher average advances.
The revenue momentum experienced in the first half of the financial year continued into the second half. Net interest income benefitted from higher average interest earning assets and lower funding costs. Increased client activity, higher lending turnover and supportive market conditions underpinned the growth in non-interest revenue over the year. Fixed operating expenditure was well contained in line with the Group's focus on cost efficiencies, while variable remuneration increased given improved business performance. Impairments were significantly lower given limited default experience and the minimal impact from updated forward looking macroeconomic scenarios since 1H2022.
The prior year results reflected the effects of severe economic contraction and rate cuts associated with COVID-19 which negatively affected client activity, net interest margins, valuations, and impairments. Additionally, risk management and risk reduction costs associated with the UK structured products book were elevated in FY2021.
Pre-provision adjusted operating profit increased 50.1% to £716.2 million (FY2021: £477.0 million).
Revenue increased 21.3% to £1 990.4 million (FY2021: £1 641.1 million).
Net interest income increased 21.5% to £945.3 million (FY2021: £778.1 million) driven by higher average interest earning assets and lower funding costs.
Non-interest revenue (NIR) increased 21.1% to £1 045.1 million (FY2021: £863.0 million).
• Net fee and commission income increased 9.3% to £818.2 million (FY2021: £748.9 million) driven by improved client activity across the board and higher average FUM in Wealth & Investment. The increase was partially offset by the prior year wind down of Australia and lower equity capital markets activity in the UK off a higher base.
• Investment income decreased to £28.0 million (FY2021: £32.0 million). The positive impact of the recovery of dividends and positive fair value (FV) adjustments on certain investments (given improved markets) was offset by the non-repeat of larger realisations and FV gains in the prior year.
• Share of post-taxation profit of associates and joint venture holdings increased to £79.6 million (FY2021: £42.5 million) driven by improved performance from underlying investee companies post hard lockdowns in the prior year and earnings growth from Ninety One.
• Trading income arising from customer flow increased to £128.3 million from £35.6 million in the prior year, primarily driven by £87.3 million lower risk management and risk reduction costs associated with the UK structured products book (underpinned by risk mitigation strategies implemented on the book and improving markets) and strong growth in SA trading from increased client activity.
• Net trading losses arising from balance sheet management and other trading activities were £21.1 million compared to £18.9 million in the prior year due to currency and interest rate hedges on the balance sheet.
• Other operating income of £12.2 million (FY2021: £23.0 million) reflects the fair value movements of the Ninety One shares held in the Group's staff share scheme. These shares are reflected on the Group's balance sheet in other assets. The corresponding liability is reflected in other liabilities with changes in the value of the liability expensed through staff costs in operating costs.
Expected credit loss (ECL) impairment charges decreased by 71.0% to £28.8 million (FY2021: £99.4 million) resulting in a credit loss ratio of 8bps (31 March 2021: 35bps; 1H2022: 7bps)
Asset quality remains strong, with exposures to a carefully defined target market and well covered by collateral. Limited default experience, good recoveries, and reversals of certain Stage 3 ECLs raised in prior year as exposures cured, drove the decrease in ECL. Given the uncertain economic outlook, the Group has maintained a level of post-model management overlays to account for risks assessed as inadequately reflected in the models. There was a net release of management overlays during the year of £2.9 million.
Operating costs increased 6.0% to £1 233.9 million (FY2021: £1 164.5 million)
Fixed operating expenditure was well contained, increasing by 1.1%. The increase was primarily driven by higher variable remuneration given improved business performance, partly offset by the non-repeat of one-off costs associated with restructures (including related redundancies) and the closure of operations in Australia in the prior year. The cost to income ratio improved to 63.3% from 70.9% in the prior year.
Taxation
The taxation charge on adjusted operating profit was £143.3 million (FY2021: £74.5 million), resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.1% (FY2021: 22.3%).
In the UK, the lower effective tax rate of 14.9% (FY2021: 27.2%) was driven by higher deferred tax assets on the back of higher enacted tax rates. In SA, the higher rate of 26.7% (FY2021: 20.5%) was largely driven by the impairment of certain deferred tax assets.
Profit or loss attributable to non-controlling interests
The profit attributable to other non-controlling interests was £40.2 million compared to a loss of £0.5 million in the prior year and is attributable to the non-controlling interests in the Investec Property Fund (IPF).
Funding and liquidity
Customer deposits grew 16.5% to £40.1 billion (31 March 2021: £34.4 billion) at 31 March 2022.
Over the same period, cash and near cash increased 30.3% to £17.2 billion (£8.9 billion in Investec plc and R159.5 billion in Investec Limited).
The Group comfortably exceeds Basel liquidity requirements for the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR).
Investec Bank Limited (consolidated Group) ended the year to 31 March 2022 with the three-month average of its LCR at 138.9% and an NSFR of 112.6%. Investec plc reported a LCR of 457% and a NSFR of 145% at 31 March 2022.
Capital adequacy and leverage ratios
Capital and leverage ratios remain sound, ahead of Board-approved minimum targets and regulatory requirements. The CET1 and leverage ratio were 14.0% and 7.4% for Investec Limited (increased AIRB scope) and 11.7% and 9.2% for Investec plc (Standardised approach) respectively.
Investec Limited made progress in the application to adopt AIRB for the measurement of capital on certain portfolios currently on the Foundation Internal Ratings Based (FIRB) approach. On full adoption of AIRB, the pro-forma CET1 ratio would increase by 200bps at 31 March 2022. Investec plc is in the early stages of a process to migrate from the Standardised approach to the Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach.

Southern Africa Wealth & Investment (in Rands)
Adjusted operating profit for SA Wealth & Investment increased by 30.0% to R720 million (FY2021: R554 million).
The business reported 9.5% growth in FUM to R364.6 billion (31 March 2021: R333.0 billion) supported by positive investment performance, R12.1 billion of discretionary and annuity net inflows (non-discretionary net inflows of R1.2 billion) and improved markets. The market volatility in the final quarter of the financial year (driven by global inflationary concerns exacerbated by the invasion of Ukraine), negatively impacted closing FUM at 31 March 2022.
Revenue grew by 21.7% supported by sustained inflows into the offshore investment range and higher average discretionary and annuity FUM. Non-discretionary brokerage also increased year-on-year, particularly in March 2022 given increased market volatility.
Operating costs increased 17.9%, driven by higher variable remuneration given strong business performance, and an increased headcount of investment specialists, wealth managers and information technology (IT) personnel. Operating margins improved to 33.2% from 31.2% in FY2021.
UK & Other Wealth & Investment
Adjusted operating profit for UK & Other Wealth & Investment increased 17.9% to £87.7 million (FY2021: £74.3 million).
For the first three quarters of the financial year to 31 December 2021, market recovery and continued net inflows resulted in record FUM of £46.1 billion. However, the final quarter of the financial year was impacted by global market volatility, resulting in closing FUM of £44.4 billion (FY2021: £41.7 billion). Net inflows for the year were £1.2 billion.
Revenue grew by 8.7% given supportive market conditions and net organic growth in FUM of 2.9%. Commission income returned to normalised levels following the exceptional transaction volumes seen in the prior year, resulting in a lower average income yield year-on-year.
Operating costs were up 5.8% due to investment in technology, increased discretionary expenditure as COVID-19 related restrictions eased, as well as higher variable remuneration in line with business performance.
The UK domestic business (which accounts for 96.6% of FUM) reported an operating margin of 27.0% (FY2021: 25.2%), while a combined operating margin for UK & Other of 25.3% (FY2021: 23.3%) was achieved.

Southern Africa Specialist Banking (in Rands)
Adjusted operating profit for the SA bank increased 45.0% to R7 104 million (FY2021: R4 898 million).
Revenue growth of 18.7% was positively impacted by recovery in NIR as the bank saw increased client activity levels across the board, higher average interest earning assets, lower funding costs and good client acquisition. This was partly offset by investment write-downs on certain portfolios in the current year and lower deal fees in Investec Property.
Net interest income increased 13.2% driven by higher average interest earning assets and lower funding costs.
Non-interest revenue increased 33.0% driven by:
• Increased fee income on the back of higher lending and forex (FX) turnover, and recovery of point-of-sale activity relative to the prior year.
• Higher dividend income and certain realisations off a low base.
• Trading income increased, driven by market share gains in select markets, increased client flows and benefits arising from increased market volatility. Balance sheet management and other trading income saw mark-to-market (MTM) gains on certain interest rate and currency swaps.
- offset by
• Lower deal fees from Investec Property and negative FV adjustments on certain investments.
ECL impairment charges decreased 91.2% to R51 million resulting in an approximately zero percent CLR (FY2021: 18bps). The decline was due to limited default experience, good recoveries, specific ECL impairment reversals and the release of R71 million post-model overlays given credit performance and a stable to improved macro-economic outlook relative to FY2021. The management overlay at year end of R219 million (31 March 2021: R290 million) reflects heightened uncertainty given inflationary pressures, and second-order economic impacts from the invasion of Ukraine.
Operating costs increased 8.9% driven by higher personnel expenses due to salary increases and higher variable remuneration given improved business performance. Discretionary expenditure also increased as COVID-19 related restrictions eased. Fixed costs were well managed increasing 4.2%. The cost to income ratio was lower at 51.1% (FY2021: 55.7%).
Net core loans grew by 3.9% to R298.4 billion (31 March 2021: R287.3 billion). Advances to private clients increased 4.2% driven by resi-mortgages, offset by flat year-on-year growth in commercial real estate. Corporate lending increased 3.3%, offset by elevated repayments and subdued credit demand given continued low business confidence.
UK & Other Specialist Banking
Adjusted operating profit for the UK bank increased to £193.7 million (FY2021: £44.8 million). The £148.9 million increase in profits was driven principally by strong net interest income growth, lower risk management and risk reduction costs related to the structured products book, reduced fixed operating expenditure and lower ECL charges given limited stage 3 ECLs. Client acquisition remained strong, with the Private Banking business growing its HNW clients to 6 982, surpassing the three-year target of 6 500 clients by 31 March 2022.
Net interest income increased 20.9% driven by higher average lending books and lower cost of funding, partially offset by the impact of the disposal of the Australian corporate book in March 2021.
Non-interest revenue increased 8.8% due to:
• Significantly lower risk management and risk reduction costs associated with the structured products book (£5.9 million for FY2022 vs £93.3 million for FY2021).
• Higher fees from the Private Equity franchise due to strong origination and distribution activities and higher advisory fees relative to prior year.
- offset by
• Lower fees and commissions due to the wind down of Australia and a reduction in equity capital markets activity off a high base.
• Reduced balance sheet management and other trading income due to costs associated with the early redemption of a senior bond, MTM losses on balance sheet management instruments and the non-repeat of MTM gains in the prior year.
ECL impairment charges decreased 64.6% to £25.2 million primarily due to lower specific impairments. The reduction in ECL resulted in a credit loss ratio of 17bps (FY2021: 56bps). The management overlay totals £16.8 million at 31 March 2022 (down £4.2million from £21 million at September 2021; up from £16 million at March 2021). This movement in the overlay reflects:
• Increased modelled ECL given greater downside weightings,
• The reducing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has on management's underlying assumptions, and
• The increasing impact of greater global uncertainty given rising inflation and geopolitical concerns.
Operating costs were broadly flat, declining by 0.3% year on year. The 5.3% reduction in fixed costs was offset by an increase in variable remuneration in line with improved business performance. The base includes one-off costs associated with the implementation of restructures as part of the Group's strategy to simplify and focus the business, including related redundancies and the closure of operations in Australia. The cost to income ratio improved to 69.6% (FY2021: 81.3%).
Net core loans grew by 17.0% (18.5% excluding Australia) to £14.4 billion (31 March 2021: £12.3 billion) driven by residential mortgages (up 35.5%) and strong demand for corporate credit (up 10.2% (12.0% excluding Australia)) across several portfolios.

• Better than expected performance in the underlying investee companies within IEP,
• Growth in earnings from Ninety One, and
• Lower negative FX adjustments on Euro-denominated investments in IPF, compared to the prior year.

Notes to the commentary section above
Presentation of financial information
Investec operates under a Dual Listed Companies (DLC) structure with primary listings of Investec plc on the London Stock Exchange and Investec Limited on the JSE Limited.
In terms of the contracts constituting the DLC structure, Investec plc and Investec Limited effectively form a single economic enterprise in which the economic and voting rights of ordinary shareholders of the companies are maintained in equilibrium relative to each other. The directors of the two companies consider that for financial reporting purposes, the fairest presentation is achieved by combining the results and financial position of both companies.
Accordingly, these year-end results reflect the results and financial position of the combined DLC Group under UK adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) which comply with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), denominated in Pounds Sterling. In the commentary above, all references to Investec or the Group relate to the combined DLC Group comprising Investec plc and Investec Limited.
Following a review of the liquidity, capital position, profitability, the business model and operational risks facing the business, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Investec Group will be a going concern for a period of at least 12 months. The results for the year ended 31 March 2022 has accordingly been prepared on the going concern basis.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, all comparatives included in the commentary above relate to the year ended 31 March 2021.
Amounts represented on a neutral currency basis for income statement items assume that the relevant average exchange rates for the year ended 31 March 2022 remain the same as those in the prior year. Amounts represented on a neutral currency basis for balance sheet items assume that the relevant closing exchange rates at 31 March 2022 remain the same as those at 31 March 2021.
Neutral currency information is considered as pro-forma financial information as per the JSE Listings Requirements and is therefore the responsibility of the Group's Board of Directors. Pro-forma financial information was prepared for illustrative purposes and because of its nature may not fairly present the issuer's financial position, changes in equity, or results of operations. The external auditors of Investec Limited performed a review of the pro forma financial information and the opinion is available for inspection at the registered office of Investec upon request.
Foreign currency impact
The Group's reporting currency is Pounds Sterling. Certain of the Group's operations are conducted by entities outside the UK. The results of operations and the financial condition of these individual companies are reported in the local currencies in which they are domiciled, including Rands, Australian Dollars, Euros and US Dollars. These results are then translated into Pounds Sterling at the applicable foreign currency exchange rates for inclusion in the Group's combined consolidated financial statements. In the case of the income statement, the weighted average rate for the relevant period is applied and, in the case of the balance sheet, the relevant closing rate is used.
The following table sets out the movements in certain relevant exchange rates against Pounds Sterling over the period:

Profit Forecast
The following matters highlighted in this announcement contain forward-looking statements:
• The cost to income ratio to be within the Group target of <63% notwithstanding inflationary pressures.
• Normalisation of expected credit loss impairment charges and consequent credit loss ratio increase towards the Group's revised through-the-cycle (TTC) range of 25-35bps, with South Africa's TTC range calibrated between 20bps and 30bps, and the UK between 30bps and 40bps.
• Improvement in ROE towards the 12-16% Group target range, which we expect to achieve by FY2024. This will be aided by capital management initiatives.
The basis of preparation of this statement and the assumptions upon which it was based are set out below. This statement is subject to various risks and uncertainties and other factors - these factors may cause the Group's actual future results, performance or achievements in the markets in which it operates to differ from those expressed in this Profit Forecast.
Any forward-looking statements made are based on the knowledge of the Group at 18 May 2022.
This forward-looking statement represents a profit forecast under the Listing Rules. The Profit Forecast relates to the year ending 31 March 2023.
The financial information on which the Profit Forecast was based is the responsibility of the Directors of the Group and has not been reviewed and reported on by the Group's auditors.
Basis of preparation
The Profit Forecast has been properly compiled using the assumptions stated below, and on a basis consistent with the accounting policies adopted in the Group's 31 March 2022 unaudited preliminary financial statements, which are in accordance with IFRS.
Assumptions
The Profit Forecast has been prepared on the basis of the following assumptions during the forecast period:
Factors outside the influence or control of the Investec Board:
• There will be no material change in the political and/or economic environment that would materially affect the Investec Group.
• There will be no material change in legislation or regulation impacting on the Investec Group's operations or its accounting policies.
• There will be no business disruption that will have a significant impact on the Investec Group's operations, whether for the economic effects of increased geopolitical tensions or otherwise.
• The Rand/Pound Sterling and US Dollar/Pound Sterling exchange rates and the tax rates remain materially unchanged from the prevailing rates detailed above.
• There will be no material changes in the structure of the markets, client demand or the competitive environment.
• There will be no material change to the facts and circumstances relating to legal proceedings and uncertain tax matters.
Estimates and judgements
In preparation of the Profit Forecast, the Group makes estimations and applies judgement that could affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities within the reporting period. Key areas in which judgement is applied include:
• Valuation of unlisted investments primarily in the private equity, direct investments portfolios and embedded derivatives. Key valuation inputs are based on the most relevant observable market inputs, adjusted where necessary for factors that specifically apply to the individual investments and recognising market volatility.
• The determination of ECL against assets that are carried at amortised cost and ECL relating to debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) involves the assessment of future cash flows which is judgmental in nature.
• Valuation of investment properties is performed by capitalising the budget net income of the property at the market related yield applicable at the time.
• The Group's income tax charge and balance sheet provision are judgmental in nature. This arises from certain transactions for which the ultimate tax treatment can only be determined by final resolution with the relevant local tax authorities. The Group recognises in its tax provision certain amounts in respect of taxation that involve a degree of estimation and uncertainty where the tax treatment cannot finally be determined until a resolution has been reached by the relevant tax authority. The carrying amount of this provision is often dependent on the timetable and progress of discussions and negotiations with the relevant tax authorities, arbitration processes and legal proceedings in the relevant tax jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Issues can take many years to resolve and assumptions on the likely outcome would therefore have to be made by the Group.
• Where appropriate, the Group has utilised expert external advice as well as experience of similar situations elsewhere in making any such provisions. Determination of interest income and interest expense using the effective interest rate method involves judgement in determining the timing and extent of future cash flows.
Accounting policies, significant judgements and disclosures
These unaudited condensed combined consolidated financial results have been prepared in terms of the recognition and measurement criteria of the presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" and IFRS as adopted by the UK which comply with IFRS' as issued by the IASB. At 31 March 2022, UK adopted IFRS are identical in all material respects to current IFRS applicable to the Group, with differences only in the effective dates of certain standards.
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the results for the year ended 31 March 2022 are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements for year ended 31 March 2021.
The financial results have been prepared under the supervision of Nishlan Samujh, the Group Finance Director. The annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 are available on the Group's website:
www.investec.com

Definitions
• Adjusted operating profit refers to operating profit before goodwill, acquired intangibles and strategic actions and after adjusting for earnings attributable to other non-controlling interests. Non-IFRS measures such as adjusted operating profit are considered as pro forma financial information as per the JSE Listing Requirements. The pro forma financial information is the responsibility of the Group's Board of Directors. Pro-forma financial information was prepared for illustrative purposes and because of its nature may not fairly present the issuer's financial position, changes in equity or results of operations. The external auditors of Investec Limited performed a review of the pro forma financial information and the opinion is available for inspection at the registered office of Investec upon request.
• Adjusted earnings is calculated by adjusting basic earnings attributable to shareholders for the amortisation of acquired intangible assets, non-operating items including strategic actions, and earnings attributable to perpetual preference shareholders and other additional tier 1 security holders.
• Adjusted basic earnings per share is calculated as adjusted earnings attributable to shareholders divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.
• Headline earnings is adjusted earnings plus the after tax financial effect of strategic actions and the amortisation of acquired intangible assets. Headline earnings is an earnings measure required to be calculated and disclosed by the JSE and is calculated in accordance with the guidance provided in Circular 1/2021.
• Headline earnings per share (HEPS) is calculated as headline earnings divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.
• Basic earnings is earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders as defined by IAS33 Earnings Per Share.
• Dividend payout ratio is calculated as the dividend per share divided by adjusted earnings per share.
• Pre-provision adjusted operating profit is calculated as: Total operating income before expected credit loss impairment charges, net of operating costs and net of operating profits or losses attributable to other non-controlling interests.
• The credit loss ratio is calculated as expected credit loss (ECL) impairment charges on gross core loans as a percentage of average gross core loans subject to ECL.
• The cost to income ratio is calculated as: operating costs divided by operating income before expected credit loss impairment charges (net of operating profits or losses attributable to other non-controlling interests).
• Return on average ordinary shareholders' equity (ROE) is calculated as adjusted earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by average ordinary shareholders' equity.
• Return on average tangible ordinary shareholders' equity (ROTE) is calculated as adjusted earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by average tangible ordinary shareholders' equity.
• Core loans is defined as net loans to customers plus net own originated securitised assets.
• NCI is non-controlling interests.

Exchange rates between local currencies and Pounds Sterling have fluctuated over the period. The most significant impact arises from the volatility of the Rand. The average Rand: Pound Sterling exchange rate over the period has appreciated by 4.9% against the comparative 12-month period ended 31 March 2021, and the closing rate has appreciated by 5.5% since 31 March 2021. The following tables provide an analysis of the impact of the Rand on our reported numbers.

Contingent liabilities
Investec Bank plc ("Investec") has been notified by the Office of the Public Prosecutor in Cologne, Germany, that it and certain of its current and former employees may be involved in possible charges relating to historical involvement in German dividend tax arbitrage transactions (known as cum-ex transactions). Investigations are ongoing and no formal proceeding have been issued against Investec by the Office of the Public Prosecutor. Whilst no formal proceedings have been issued against Investec by the Office of the Public Prosecutor, a provision was previously raised to reflect the potential financial outflows that could arise as a result of this matter. In addition, subsequent to the year end date, Investec received certain enquiries in respect of client tax reclaims for the periods 2010-2011 relating to the historical German dividend arbitrage transactions from the German Federal Tax Office (FTO) in Bonn. The FTO has provided limited information and Investec has sought further information and clarification. Given the lack of information, it is not possible for Investec to reliably estimate the potential liability, if any, in relation to this matter.
Investec is cooperating with the German authorities and continues to conduct its own internal investigation into the matters in question. There are factual issues to be resolved which may have legal consequences including financial penalties. In relation to potential civil claims; whilst Investec is not a claimant nor a defendant to any civil claims in respect of cum ex transactions, Investec has received third party notices in relation to two civil proceedings in Germany and may elect to join the proceedings as a third party participant. Investec has itself served third party notices on various participants to these historic transactions in order to preserve statute of limitation on any potential future claims that Investec may seek to bring against those parties, should Investec incur any liability in the future. Investec has also entered into standstill agreements with some third parties in order to suspend the limitation period in respect of the potential civil claims. While Investec is not a claimant nor a defendant to any civil claims at this stage, it cannot rule out the possibility of civil claims by or against Investec in future in relation to the relevant transactions. The Group has not provided further disclosure with respect to these historical dividend arbitrage transactions because it has concluded that such disclosure may be expected to seriously prejudice its outcome.
Events after the reporting date
On 18 March 2022, a circular was published noting the proposed distribution of 15% of the issued Ninety One DLC shares to Investec ordinary shareholders reducing the Investec holding from 25% to 10%.
As at 31 March 2022, a Section 46 ruling was still to be obtained from the South African Revenue Service stipulating the tax consequences of the distribution in South Africa, as well as the outcome of the shareholder vote that was scheduled to take place on 28 April 2022.
The Section 46 ruling was obtained on 20 April 2022 and a SENS and RNS announcement was published to shareholders to inform them of the outcome of the ruling as it was considered information that could have an impact on the vote of an ordinary shareholder.
On 28 April 2022, the General meeting was concluded with a vote in favour of the distribution. The distribution is expected to be effective on 30 May 2022. The distribution was classified as a non-adjusting event after the reporting date as defined by IAS 10 Events after the Reporting Period.

Financial instruments at fair value
The table below analyses recurring fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities. These fair value measurements are categorised into different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to the valuation technique used.
The different levels are identified as follows:
Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
- inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
(i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Sensitivity of fair values to reasonably possible alternative assumptions by level 3 instrument type
The fair value of financial instruments in level 3 are measured using valuation techniques that incorporate assumptions that are not evidenced by prices from observable market data. The below valuations have been considered taking the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic into consideration. The following table shows the sensitivity of these fair values to reasonably possible alternative assumptions, determined at a transactional level:

* The sensitivity of the fair value of liabilities arising on securitisation of other assets has been considered together with other securitised assets.
^ Other - The valuation sensitivity has been assessed by adjusting various inputs such as expected cash flows, discount rates, earnings multiples rather than a single input. It is deemed appropriate to reflect the outcome on a portfolio basis for the purposes of this analysis as the sensitivity of the assets cannot be determined through the adjustment of a single input.
^^ Underlying asset values are calculated by reference to a tangible asset, for example property, aircraft or shares.
∗ The EBITDA, cash flows and property values have been stressed on an investment-by-investment and loan-by-loan basis in order to obtain favourable and unfavourable valuations.
# Property values are the underlying input for the valuations where the capitalisation rate when valuing these properties has been stressed by 0.25bps.
In determining the value of level 3 financial instruments, the following are the principal input that can require judgement:
Credit spreads
Credit spreads reflect the additional yield that a market participant would demand for taking exposure to the credit risk of an instrument. The credit spread for an instrument forms part of the yield used in a discounted cash flow calculation. In general a significant increase in a credit spread in isolation will result in a movement in fair value that is unfavourable for the holder of a financial instrument.
Discount rates
Discount rates (including WACC) are used to adjust for the time value of money when using a discounted cash flow valuation method. Where relevant, the discount rate also accounts for illiquidity, market conditions and uncertainty of future cash flows.
Volatilities
Volatility is a key input in the valuation of derivative products containing optionality. Volatility is a measure of the variability or uncertainty in returns for a given derivative underlying. It represents an estimate of how much a particular underlying instrument, parameter or index will change in value over time.
Cash flows
Cash flows relate to the future cash flows which can be expected from the instrument and requires judgement.
EBITDA
The company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation. This is the main input into a price earnings multiple valuation method.
Price-earnings multiple
The price earnings ratio is an equity valuation multiple. It is a key driver in the valuation of unlisted investments.
Property value and precious and industrial metals
The property value and precious and industrial metals is a key driver of future cash flows on these investments.
Underlying asset value
In instances where cash flows have links to referenced assets, the underlying asset value is used to determine the fair value. The underlying asset valuation is derived using observable market prices sourced from broker quotes, specialist valuers or other reliable pricing sources.
