L&G Interim Results Part 4

Legal & General Group PLC 28 July 2005 Part 4 Legal & General Investment Management ===================================== - supplementary information =========================== Legal & General Investment Management maintains its position as the largest investment manager in the UK*. Strong new business and rising markets have contributed to a 9.9% increase in funds under management from £162bn in December 2004 to £178bn. Profits - International Financial Reporting basis ================================================= Operating profit from institutional fund management was up 38% to £44m (1H04: £32m). Corporate Pensions profitability increased by 43% from £23m in the first half of June 2004 to £33m. New business totalled £6.8bn of which £3.1bn was from new clients. Overseas Life Assurance Business was another source of new business success with £721m (1H04: £140m) of new funds, increasing funds under management to £2.2bn. Client numbers at the end of June 2005 were 2,707 compared with 2,598 at the end of 2004, an increase of 4.2%. Legal & General Ventures, the private equity arm, successfully completed 5 exits realising over £52m of cash for investors, and made 2 new investments in the period. Profit for the period was £1.7m (1H04: £0.8m). The Property fund management subsidiary is now the operator, asset manager or property manager to eight external property partnerships. Profits increased by 50% to £3m (1H04: £2m) largely due to increased performance fees and asset growth. Total Legal & General Investment Management funds under management increased by 22% to £178bn (1H04: £146bn). Profits - European Embedded Value (EEV) basis ============================================= Managed pension fund business is written as a long-term contract and so the results of the business are also presented on an EEV basis. The EEV assumptions are detailed in Part 2 of this announcement. Operating profit from institutional fund management was up 29% at £66m (1H04: £51m). The contribution from in-force business was higher at £35m (1H04: £25m) primarily due to lower than assumed outflows. Favourable new business mix led to an increase in new business contribution of 24%, to £21m (1H04: £17m). Further scale economies with pooled funds under management exceeding £100bn, gave rise to positive assumption changes. Fund Performance ================ 75% of the retail flagship funds were above median over the year to June 2005. Our flagship Linked Life Distribution Fund, which exceeds £2.8bn, maintained its top quartile performance over 1, 3 and 5 years. 77% of our actively managed fixed interest pooled funds outperformed their peer group median or index benchmark over the year, to June 2005. All Index funds were within their tracking tolerances in the year to June 2005. *Source: IMA Asset Management Survey 2005 & Hymans Robertson Market Briefing 2005. ================================================================================ Part 4 Legal & General Investment Management P1 Consolidated Income Statement - IFRS Basis Six months ended 30 June 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full year 30.6.05 30.6.04 2004 Restated Restated £m £m £m Profit from continuing operations Corporate pensions 33 23 51 Ventures 2 1 4 Property 3 2 3 Other external income 2 2 3 Other operational income 4 4 8 -------- -------- -------- Operating profit 44 32 69 Variation from longer term investment return 0 (2) 0 -------- -------- -------- Profit on ordinary activities before tax 44 30 69 Tax charge on profit on ordinary activities (13) (9) (21) -------- -------- -------- Profit for the financial period 31 21 48 ======== ======== ======== This financial information was approved by the Board on 27 July 2005.
