Admiral Markets AS auditeeritud aastaaruanne 2018

Message

Admiral Markets AS saavutas 2018. aastal käibe- ja kasumirekordi

Admiral  Markets AS teenis 2018. aastal rekordilise käibe ning kasumi. Ettevõtte
kauplemistegevuse netotulu kasvas 2018. aastal 24,2 miljoni euroni, mida on 4,9
miljoni  euro võrra enam  kui eelmisel aastal.   Kauplemistegevuse netotulu kasv
tulenes  peamiselt aktiivsete  grupiüleste klientide  arvu kasvust  ning suurema
väärtusega  klientide  kauplemismahtude  kasvust.  Ettevõtte puhaskasum oli 9,5
miljonit  eurot ehk 58% suurem võrreldes  6,0 miljoni euroga aasta varem. Kasvas
ka  ettevõtte kasumimarginaal,  mis oli  nüüd 39%. 2017. aasta  lõpus oli vastav
näitaja  31%. Kulude ja  tulude suhe  langes 2018. aasta  lõpuks 63%-le. Admiral
Markets AS-i omakapitali tootlus oli 2018. aasta lõpus 30,1%.

Admiral  Markets AS-i emaettevõte  Admiral Markets Group  AS näitas 2018. aastal
samuti  rekordtulemusi. Admiral  Markets Group  AS-i 2018. aasta konsolideeritud
kauplemistegevuse  netotulu suurenes  32,6 miljoni euroni,  mida on 5,6 miljonit
eurot rohkem kui aasta varem. Grupi konsolideeritud puhaskasum oli 10,3 miljonit
eurot  ehk  58% suurem  võrreldes  6,5 miljoni  euroga  aasta varem. 2018. aasta
kauplemise  maht kasvas  41% ning oli  572 miljardit eurot. Aktiivsete klientide
arv  oli  Grupil  2018. aastal  ligikaudu 22 300, kasvades 10% võrreldes eelneva
aastaga.   Admiral  Marketsi  kliendid  teostasid  2018. aastal  üle  30 miljoni
kauplemistehingu.

?2018.  aasta oli  äärmiselt edukas  ning tunneme  nii Admiral  Markets AS-i kui
Admiral  Markets Group  AS-i läbi  aegade suurima  käibe- ja  kasuminumbrite üle
suurt  heameelt. Möödunud aastat iseloomustas  peamiselt Admiral Markets AS-i ja
teiste  kontserni kuuluvate investeerimisettevõtete positsioonide tugevdamine ja
kasvatamine  Euroopas,"  nentis  Admiral  Markets  AS-i  juhatuse esimees Sergei
Bogatenkov.  "Meie esmaklassilised tulemused põhinevad uute finantsinstrumentide
lisandumisel  meie  tooteportfelli  ja  suurepärasel  klienditeenindusel. Lisaks
oleme  suunanud  fookuse  kauplemisplatvormide  innovatsiooni  ja silmapaistvale
turundustegevusele,   mis   on   üheskoos  kombineerituna  toonudki  2018. aasta
rekordtulemuse," lisas Bogatenkov.

2019. aastal  jätkab  Admiral  Markets  ülemaailmse strateegia rakendamisega, et
laieneda   kontserniga   uutele   turgudele.   Lisaks   suurendatakse  pakkumisi
institutsionaalsetele  ja professionaalsetele klientidele,  et seeläbi kasvatada
nende osakaalu ettevõtte klientide portfellis.

Title

Admiral Markets AS Audited Annual Report 2018

Message

Admiral Markets AS made a record-breaking revenue and profits in 2018

Admiral Markets AS earned record revenue and profits in 2018. Net trading income
of  the company  increased to  24.2 million euros  in 2018, which is 4.9 million
euros  more than  a year  ago.  The  growth in  net trading income can mainly be
attributed to an increase in the number of active clients in the Group, but also
to  high-value clients  trading more.  The company's  net profit was 9.5 million
euros, or 58% higher compared to 6.0 million euros a year earlier. The company's
net  profit margin increased to 39% from 31% a  year earlier. The cost to income
ratio fell to 63% by the end of 2018. The return on equity of Admiral Markets AS
was 30.1% at the end of 2018.

Admiral  Markets Group AS, the parent company of Admiral Markets AS, also showed
record  results in 2018. The consolidated net  trading income of Admiral Markets
Group  AS increased  to 32.6 million  euros in  2018, which is 5.6 million euros
more  than a year  earlier. The consolidated  net profit of  the Group was 10.3
million  euros, or 58% more than  6.5 million euros a year  before. The value of
trades  increased 41% to 572 billion euros in  2018. The Group had circa 22,300
active  clients in 2018, a 10% increase compared to the year before. The clients
of Admiral Markets made over 30 million trades in 2018.

?2018  was extremely  successful and  we are  very pleased  with the  results of
Admiral  Markets AS  and Admiral  Markets Group  AS for  the highest revenue and
profit figures ever. The previous year was mostly characterised by strengthening
and  increasing  Admiral  Markets  AS  and  other  Group  investment  companies'
positions  in Europe," said Sergei Bogatenkov,  Chairman of the Board of Admiral
Markets  AS. "Our  record results  are based  on  the  addition of new financial
instruments  to our  product portfolio  and on  our excellent  customer service.
Also,  we have focused  on the development  of our trading  technology and great
marketing  activities. All  of those  actions combined  have brought  the record
results of 2018," added Bogatenkov.

In  2019 Admiral  Markets  shall  continue  with  the  implementation  of global
strategy in order to expand to new markets. In addition, offers to institutional
and  professional  customers  will  be  increased  to  grow  their  share in the
corporate client portfolio.
