	Results Summary Statutory Results
	Note: all figures in this presentation are in USD M unless otherwise indicated Management adjusted results are used, along with other measures, to assess operating business performance. The Company believes that exclusion of certain items permits better analysis of the Company’s performance on a comparative basis and provides a better measure of underlying operating performance. Management adjustments in FY 2012 are made on the same basis as in prior years. They are predominantly non-cash items. This year’s non-cash management adjustments include significant amortisation of identified intangible assets from acquired businesses, which will recur in subsequent years, and one-off charges, such as the impairment of Continental Europe assets as foreshadowed in the announcement on 13 June 2012. Cash adjustments are predominantly expenditure on acquisition-related and other restructures, and will cease once the relevant acquisition integrations and restructures are complete. A full description of all management adjustment items is included in the ASX Appendix 4E Note 8. The non-IFRS financial information contained within this document has not been reviewed or audited in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

Drivers Behind FY 2012 Financial Performance
----- End of picture text -----

› Revenue in transactional business lines, especially corporate actions, continues to decline. Corporate actions revenues now lower than any year since 2004, which was pre Equiserve. Proxy solicitation (corporate and mutual fund) also suffering.
› Register maintenance revenues held up better, but still soft due to lower activity based fees and holder attrition.
› Continued strong cost focus in traditional business lines, to some extent masked by acquired costs, and technology investment and capex to support acquisition integration.
› Employee share plans continue to perform strongly, with continuing realisation of benefits from the HBOS EES acquisition (and still more to come).
› All three recent acquisitions performing better than plan, and tracking to continue to do so.
› Margin income up as Shareowner Services adds to balances. Continued buildout of hedge book a priority in a difficult (flattening yield curve) environment.

Computershare Strengths
----- End of picture text -----

› Leading market position in all major markets for equity investor record-keeping and employee stock plan administration based on:
› sustainable advantages in technology, operations, domain knowledge and product development;
› sustained quality excellence and operational efficiency; and
› a joined-up global platform (20+ countries including China, India and Russia), and seamless development and execution of cross-border solutions.
› Demonstrated track record for successfully moving into new business lines with similar operational and market profiles, and integrating and delivering synergies from acquisitions in existing business lines.
› Well over 70% of revenues recurring in nature.
› Long track record of excellent cash realisation from operations.
› Balance sheet remains strong and gearing remains prudent, with debt tenor out to 12 years, average maturity nearly 6 years, and no more than USD 305M maturing in any one financial year.

Guidance
----- End of picture text -----

› We said when we released our FY 2012 results in August 2012 that, “We do not expect material improvement to the current difficult operating environment for our market-related businesses. However, we do expect continued strong contributions from recent acquisitions. Looking to FY 2013 and having regard to the current equity, foreign exchange and interest rate market conditions, we expect Management EPS to be between 10% and 15% higher than in FY 2012.”

Group strategy and priorities
----- End of picture text -----

Our group strategy remains as it has been:

› Continue to drive operations quality and efficiency through measurement, benchmarking and technology.
› Improve our front office skills to protect and drive revenue.
› Continue to seek acquisition and other growth opportunities where we can add value and enhance returns for our shareholders.

In addition, we are committing priority resources in three areas:

› Integration of recent acquisitions.
› Continuing to lift our market position.
› Engaging with regulatory developments and market structure change in the many jurisdictions in which we operate.

Delivery against strategy
----- End of picture text -----

Delivering on the first 2 limbs of the strategy (cost & revenue) is as always a key priority:

› Our processes of measuring and benchmarking operational and shared services costs continue to deliver benefits. The step-change opportunity from looking at the Shareowner Services business’s use of off-shore capabilities offers meaningful quality benefits and savings when deployed beyond the US client base and beyond operations (e.g. for technology).

› Revenue initiatives continue to deliver benefits, but these are being overpowered by revenue drag from shareholder attrition and soft transactional volumes.

› Our position at the top of independent service surveys evidences our quality achievements, and supports client retention and pricing.

Our search for inorganic growth opportunities has been less energetic over the past 12 months as we have focused on digesting the three significant FY12 acquisitions. Details of the current status of these three acquisitions are given in later slides.

Acquisitions update – Shareowner Services
----- End of picture text -----

› While revenues have been softer than expected (as with our other US, and indeed many other global, investor services assets), that has been partly offset by synergies being realised more quickly than expected.

› Data and system migrations are well underway and tracking to plan.

› Most office location and platform decisions have been made and are now being implemented. In particular, we are retaining the US stock options business acquired with Shareowner Services – this means we give up meaningful revenues from Solium Capital relating to our earlier sale of our former US options business to them but we believe the upside justifies that near term impact.

› We continue to be impressed by the quality of the people who joined us with the acquisition and the strength of their client relationships.
› Client attrition remains within our acquisition assumptions.

Acquisitions update – SLS and Serviceworks
----- End of picture text -----

› In both cases, there were significant client wins and on-boardings immediately around the acquisitions closing, resulting in top-line growth significantly higher than expected.
› In both cases, this accelerated the need for decisions on premises and resourcing, and stretched the legacy management and integration teams.
› In both cases, the teams are coming through those challenges in excellent shape.
› SLS is establishing an additional site in Arizona and continues to have a strong pipeline of (mostly but not exclusively organic) growth opportunities.
› Serviceworks people are now on the ground and working in the US, with more opportunities emerging now we are on the ground.
› We said we anticipated 5 cents management eps contribution annualised from SLS and Serviceworks. In FY 2012 (7 months of SLS and 10 months for Serviceworks), they contributed 3.6 cents management eps.
