JSE LIMITED AUDITED ABRIDGED RESULTS FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED 31 DECEMBER
2010 AND CASH DIVIDEND DECLARATION
COMMENTARY
OVERVIEW OF 2010
The JSE had a fair year in challenging conditions in 2010, as the Exchange
focused on making progress on operational projects while responding to global
changes in the exchange industry and the opportunities and challenges these
could hold for issuers and investors.
After a period of uncertainty towards the start of the year, the JSE`s main
equity index, the FTSE/JSE All Share Index (ALSI), rose 16.1% year on year,
reaching a high of 32 227 on 30 December. The South African Volatility Index
(SAVI), a forecast of equity market risk in South Africa, rose in the last
quarter of 2010, implying higher market volatility and thus risk. However, SAVI
levels were significantly lower than the highs reached during the global
financial crisis in 2008/9.
Foreign investors continued to increase their holdings in JSE equities (2010 net
inflow: R36.4 billion; 2009: R75.3 billion) and grew their net investment in the
interest rate market to R58.6 billion.
Financial performance
The operational performance of each of our markets has enabled the JSE to grow
operating revenue by 9% to R1 255 million (2009: R1 156 million), with the main
growth coming from the equities market, but contributions also made by
information products sales and commodity derivatives. The interest rate market
contributed 12 months of revenue in 2010 against six months the previous year
when it was acquired from BESA.
Other income climbed 24% to R50 million (2009: R41 million), primarily a result
of the profit on realising portfolio investments in the Investor Protection
Funds.
JSE operating costs before net finance income rose by 8% to R879 million (2009:
R810 million), as a result of:
- the hiring of 20 people to our staff complement, primarily to enable us to
complete our large IT projects;
- impairment to software under development of R33 million, relating to
development costs in the back office system and to the upgrade of SENS which is
now not expected to deliver the anticipated value;
- onerous lease costs of R1.9 million, attributable to the lease over Melrose
Arch entered into by the Bond Exchange South Africa (BESA), and which were
expensed during the course of 2010.
The result is a 10% rise in operating profit for 2010 to R426 million from R386
million in 2009.
Net interest earned fell by 16% to R87 million.
Group headline earnings per share fell from 456 cents to 436 cents.
Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure was of R157 million in 2010 related mainly to:
- the last phase of the JSE`s technology replacement project, including the back
office system (BDA), surveillance and clearing, and settlement systems to be
delivered this year. Most of the cost of this project was incurred between 2007
and 2010.
- the JSE`s new data centres.
The bulk of the depreciation for these will be taken through the income
statement from 2011.
Capital structure and dividend policy
The JSE has no long-term borrowings and R1 046 million in cash reserves (2009:
R921 million). The Exchange analyses its capital requirements in three
categories:
- first, to ensure a smoothly operating stock exchange, the JSE sets aside
sufficient cash to fund four months of operations;
- second, as the JSE guarantees all central order book equities trades, it sets
aside sufficient cash to meet its obligations assuming the failure of a JSE
equities member (broker);
- third, the JSE must be in a position to maintain infrastructure and meet
capital needs for expansion, so we set aside a portion of cash to fund these
types of expenses; and
- fourth, the Investor Protection Funds contribute R112 million of total (2009:
R116 million).
On the basis of this assessment, the Board has determined how much cash we need
to retain and revisits this regularly.
Cash dividend declaration
The directors of JSE are proposing to declare ordinary dividend number 7 of 210
cents per share to be approved at the Annual General Meeting of shareholders to
be held on Thursday, 28 April 2011. This equates to 2.1 times cover and is
consistent with the stated dividend policy to pay between 1.5 and 2.5 cover.
The salient dates for the payment of the dividend are as follows:
To be released on SENS on Tuesday, 15 March 2011
Last date to trade JSE shares cum Friday, 20 May 2011
dividend
JSE shares trade ex dividend Monday, 23 May 2011
Record date for purposes of Friday, 27 May 2011
determining the registered holders of
JSE shares to participate in the
dividend at close of business on
Date of payment of dividend Monday, 30 May 2011
Share certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised from Monday 23
May 2011 to Friday, 27 May 2011, both days inclusive.
Operating overview
It is becoming clearer that, in a globally competitive environment, markets with
strong regulation, solid infrastructure and thriving institutions will be better
positioned to attract sustainable capital flows. The recognition by the World
Economic Forum (WEF) Global Competitiveness Report 2010 - 2011 that South
Africa`s securities exchange regulation is the best in the world reflects our
transformation from a single product equity exchange to a well-regulated, fully
horizontally and vertically integrated exchange, now recognised as one of the
world`s leading exchanges.
In future, we aim to be recognised as the South African exchange providing the
leading fully integrated financial market for African securities as well as an
effective gateway to international products and markets for African investors.
To this end and as indicated more fully below, in 2011 the JSE`s main focus will
be on the delivery of several key projects:
- finally bedding down our major technology initiatives and moving closer to
being able to up the ante again in the technology-dependent services we are able
to offer across all our markets. This includes offering lower execution speeds
and a greater choice of ways to access our services;
- completing the work to enable the successful implementation of our new
equities trading system in 2012 in Johannesburg supplied by MillenniumIT, which
is a company wholly owned by the LSE;
- building consensus on the growth of our spot and derivatives interest rate
markets; and
- growing the client and product range in all our market segments, concentrating
particularly on how to bring over-the-counter (OTC) trade on-market and on how
to encourage more foreign activity on the JSE.
Cross-border activity in the exchange sector continues. We believe the JSE needs
to be linked into the global financial markets so that it can not only continue
to attract foreign investment, but also provide local clients with the best
possible access to foreign investment opportunities.
This type of access can be obtained in a number of different ways, which include
product diversification and the provision of value-added services. We are
concentrating on these areas.
Also important is identifying strategic relationships with leading global
exchanges to enable us to deliver on our strategy. The Exchange`s agreement with
the CME Group, the world`s largest derivatives exchange, is a case in point.
Through this linkage, the JSE is able to offer cash settled ZAR-denominated
commodity derivatives referencing CME prices to local investors, though there is
no equity cross-holding between the exchanges.
On the African continent, the JSE has focused its efforts on the following:
- the Africa Board. As part of the Main Board in the equities market, this Board
enables issuers from the continent (outside of South Africa) to take advantage
of increased profile and capital raising opportunities through a dual listing on
the JSE. In this regard, we are delighted with the efforts of the Africa Board
Advisory Committee, which comprises prominent African business people, to assist
with the Africa Board strategy. In 2011, the JSE will continue to promote the
Africa Board and to develop and list associated products such as African
exchange traded funds, African debt and African depository receipts. In this
vein, we welcome the suggestion in the recent Treasury consultation paper on
prudential regulation that African issuers should be treated as domestic issuers
for prudential purposes;
- building deeper relationships with some of the continent`s capital markets,
which are seeking new ways of growing and wish to tap into the JSE`s experience
in that regard;
- progressing with the design of the Africa hub to allow customers to route
orders to African exchanges using a single technological hub.
Prospects
While much has changed at the JSE during the past decade, there is significant
work to be done given the winds of change sweeping the financial services
industry worldwide. The JSE`s objectives for 2011 have been discussed above.
Though the Board is focused on delivering on the objectives identified above,
revenue projections are not possible in the stock exchange industry, given the
dependence on trading volumes in all of our markets.
At time of writing, the JSE`s markets continue to emulate 2010`s performance
with similar transaction levels being maintained. This does not imply that the
trends will necessarily continue throughout 2011.
Indications are that 2011 will be a tough year in financial markets. By
delivering on the projects outlined during this review, and by staying close to
all clients, the JSE will deliver the best possible performance to the benefit
of its users and investors.

CHANGES TO BOARD
The JSE Board has been relatively unchanged for the past decade. However, there
comes a time in every institution when people wish to move on. The first change
to the Board is the decision of our CEO, Russell Loubser to stand down as CEO
with effect from 31 December 2011. Russell joined the JSE as CEO in 1997 and has
been responsible for significant and highly successful innovations. This is not
the time to praise or thank Russell for his enormous contribution as he still
has nine months left before leaving the JSE. The time for farewells will come
later.
I am delighted to announce that the Board has appointed Nicky Newton-King as CEO
with effect from 1 January 2012. Nicky has been Russell`s deputy for the past 8
years. This appointment is well deserved and will ensure an orderly transition.
Other changes are that non-executive directors Gloria Serobe and Wendy Luhabe
have indicated that they do not wish to make themselves available for re-
election at our AGM in April 2011. After having served 10 and eight years on the
Board respectively they have both made significant contributions to the JSE`s
affairs and I thank them most sincerely.
Jonathan Berman who joined the Board as an alternate director following the BESA
merger, resigned during the course of the year due to his other business
commitments.
Lastly, in terms of accepted practice, it has been decided to shrink the number
of executive directors on our Board. Leanne Parsons and John Burke who are
senior and highly respected executives of the JSE will both stand down as
executive directors at our AGM in April. I am pleased to announce that they will
continue to contribute to the Board as alternate directors.

* Investor Protection Funds comprises the JSE Guarantee Fund Trust, JSE
Derivatives Fidelity Fund Trust and BESA Guarantee Fund Trust (the "Trusts").
The JSE maintains these Trusts for investor protection purposes as required
under the Securities Services Act, No. 36 of 2004. The JSE is required to
consolidate the Trusts into the results of the Group in terms of International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). However, as these Trusts are legally
separate from the JSE, neither the JSE nor its shareholders have any right to
the net assets of these Trusts. For enhanced understanding, the Trusts have been
shown separately (before intercompany adjustments), although, for compliance
with IFRS, the results form part of the Group financial statements.

Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2010
Basis of preparation and accounting policies
JSE Limited (the "Company") is a company domiciled in the Republic of South
Africa. The consolidated abridged annual financial statements of the Company as
at and for the year ended 31 December 2010 comprise the Company and its
subsidiaries (together referred to as "the Group") and the Group`s interests in
associates and jointly controlled entities.
The JSE Limited`s principal accounting policies applied by the Group in its
consolidated abridged annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2010 are the same as those applied by the Group in its consolidated annual
financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2009. The JSE
Limited`s abridged consolidated annual financial statements or the
year ended 31 December 2010, have been prepared in terms of the recognition and
measurement requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards and the
presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting
and the AC 500 Series Pronouncements as issued by the Accounting Practises Board
(APB).
Comparative figures
Where necessary, comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to
changes in presentation as reported in the consolidated financial statements as
at and for the year ended 31 December 2010.
The consolidated financial statements and the separate financial statements were
authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 15 March 2011.
Special purpose entities#
The JSE Guarantee Fund Trust, JSE Derivatives Fidelity Fund Trust and BESA
Guarantee Fund Trust are special purpose entities (SPE`s) set up for investor
protection. The Group does not have any direct or indirect shareholding in these
entities, however, based on the evaluation of the substance of the relationship
with the Group and the SPE`s risks and rewards, the Group controls the financial
and operating policies of these entities and the results are thus consolidated.
SPE`s controlled by the Group were established under terms that impose strict
limitations on the decision-making powers of the SPEs` management and that
result in the Group receiving the majority of the benefits related to the SPE`s
operations and net assets, being exposed to the majority of risks incident to
the SPE`s activities, and retaining the majority of the residual or ownership
risks related to the SPE`s or their assets.
Distributions from special purpose entities#
During the year surplus assets amounting to R50.0 million were distributed by
the JSE Guarantee Fund Trust to the JSE for the establishment of the JSE`s
disaster recovery site. The transfer of the funds were formally approved by the
Financial Services Board. The funds received are recognised in deferred income
in the JSE separate financial statements and will be released to profit or loss
on a systematic basis over the useful life of the assets. As at 31 December 2010
the JSE has capitalised costs of R29.0 million in respect of the establishment
of the disaster recovery site.
Operating segments#
The Group has five reportable segments, as stated below. The business units
offer different products and services, and are managed separately because they
require different technology and marketing strategies. Management has determined
the operating segments based on the monthly reports reviewed by the Executive
Committee (Exco). Exco reviews the revenue streams as set out below. Financial
and personnel resources are allocated according to the needs of the various
divisions in order to apply the strategy and operating plans agreed to during
the budgeting process. Costs in the JSE are managed holistically across the
Exchange and variances against budget are closely monitored. Information
Technology and other corporate overheads are not generally allocated to a
particular segment.

Impairment loss#
Software under development
During the year, a special review of the capitalised software development costs
was conducted. Certain elements totaling R33.2 million (2009: R8.0 million) were
identified as not being able to deliver value and were therefore impaired.
Furthermore, management prepared a value in use impairment calculation for
assessing the overall impairment of total costs. Based on this calculation, no
further impairment was required as the net present value of the cash generating
unit was calculated to be greater than the capitalised carrying value of the
software under development.
