Trading Update

Thursday 29(th) March 2018 at 7.00am: Numis Corporation Plc ("Numis") is today issuing a trading update in respect of the six months ending 31(st) March 2018.

Numis has delivered a strong first half and is expecting to report revenue and profits significantly ahead of the comparable period last year, although below the record performance achieved in the second half of the prior year.

Transaction volumes across our Capital Markets and M&A activities have been strong throughout the period and in combination with higher average deal fees, Corporate Broking & Advisory has delivered revenue materially higher than the first half of the prior year. Equities also delivered a strong performance achieving revenues in line with the first half of last year notwithstanding the introduction of MiFID II mid-way through the period.

On the back of new mandates, the outlook for the business remains positive with a strong near term pipeline of transaction opportunities expected to support a robust start to the second half.

The announcement of Numis' half year results for the six months ending 31st March 2018 will be made on 4 May 2018.
