Catella AB - Interim Report January-March 2018

Report this content

Total income increased by SEK 46 M to SEK 541 M, up 9%, mainly driven by Property Investment Management and Equity, Hedge and Fixed Income Funds. Profit was in line with the previous year despite revenue recognition of potential variable earnings in Systematic Macro being deferred to year end, in contrast with the previous quarterly and annual settlement. Accrued but not chargeable variable earnings in Systematic Macro totalled some SEK 125 M at the end of the quarter, which was not included in profit for the quarter. As previously announced, the client portfolio in the card acquiring operations is being reduced from this quarter onwards, which impacts the Banking operations’ profit negatively.

*** Accrued variable earnings are calculated on the basis of Systematic Macros’ performance-based management fees. In order for the performance-based management fee to be settled at year end, and recognised for profit/loss, returned must be higher than comparative indices and the most recent level settled (High watermark). Accordingly, actual settlement at year end may be higher, lower or entirely absent relative to the indicated amount.
