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."

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 https://senspdf.jse.co.za/documents/2022/jse/isse/INP/YE2022.pdf Alternatively, the full announcement is available on our website www.investec.com The full announcement is also available at our registered offices for inspection at no charge, during office hours.
