Trading update
19 October 2023
Hargreaves Lansdown plc today issues a trading update in respect
of its first quarter ended 30 September 2023.
Highlights
-- Net new business of GBP0.6 billion in the period and closing
Assets under Administration ("AUA") of GBP134.8 billion.
-- Net new client growth of 8,000 in the period, taking us to
1,812,000 active clients, with client retention rate of 91.7%.
-- Revenue for the period of GBP183.8 million, up 13% (Q1 2023: GBP162.9m).
Dan Olley, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"We continue to see net client growth and positive net new
business despite the macroeconomic backdrop and its on-going impact
on investor confidence and client behaviour.
Clients are looking to invest more in cash than risk-based
investments, from our Active Savings offer, giving easy access to a
range of banking partners, to Money Market Funds and short-dated
bonds. Combining this with informative and relevant content
provides our clients with a wide range of solutions to meet their
saving and investment needs."
Trading performance
-- Net new business of GBP0.6 billion in the quarter (Q1 2023:
GBP0.7bn), reflects moderated flows being seen across the market.
Active Savings continues to perform well and has been the key
driver of net flows as clients favour cash savings over risk based
investments.
-- Net client growth of 8,000 in the quarter (Q1 2023: 17,000)
primarily driven by net new clients in the SIPP and Active Savings
accounts. Client retention at 91.7% (FY2023: 92.2%) and asset
retention at 89.0% (FY2023: 90.4%) reflects the muted macroeconomic
backdrop and the need for various cohorts of clients to make cash
withdrawals.
-- Share dealing volumes averaged 634,000 per month in the
quarter (Q1 2023: 700,000) reflecting wider market trends.
-- Client cash balances were GBP12.4 billion at the end of the
quarter, 9.2% of total AUA, with heightened levels of cash
withdrawals and an increase in movement of cash into Active Savings
in July and August before stabilising in September.
-- Total revenue in the quarter of GBP183.8 million (Q1 2023:
GBP162.9m) with net interest margin growth more than offsetting the
revenue impact of the reduction in share dealing volumes.
Financial calendar
Our Annual General Meeting is scheduled to be held on 8 December
2023 and our interim results will be issued on 22 February
2024.
