1.2 Zagreb Stock Exchange trading overview

The largest securities turnover in 2020 was realized in the period from the end of February to the end of April under the influence of the Covid-19 appearance in the Republic of Croatia which caused large oscillations in prices and turnovers on the Stock Exchange. For this reason, in the first quarter, the securities turnover was by far the largest compared to the other three quarters of 2020, i.e. even three times higher turnover compared to the first quarter of 2019 (visible in the graphic below). Securities turnover has been declining since the beginning of May 2020, so that trading days in the third quarter would end with mostly lower turnover than the 2019 daily average. Therefore, the turnover in the second quarter was slightly higher than in the same period the year before, while in the third quarter there was twice as fewer securities turnover as in the third quarter of 2019. It should be taken into account that in September 2019, the focus of trading was on Kraš shares due to the then takeover process, and then only HRK 40 million lower securities turnover was achieved than in the record March 2020, when turnover was affected by the Covid -19 appearance in the Republic of Croatia. In the fourth quarter of 2020, there was a slight increase in securities turnover compared to the previous quarter, and ETFs, which began trading in mid-November, attracted substantial investor interest. They achieved an excellent turnover of almost HRK 22 million in merely a few trading weeks ending the year in the "green".

Securities turnover

Looking only at the fourth quarter of 2020, the total orderbook turnover amounted to HRK 513 million (-27.65% less compared to the fourth quarter of 2019). Orderbook stock turnover amounted to HRK 403 million or -27.32% less than in the fourth quarter of 2019. Overall, the orderbook turnover in 2020 amounted to HRK 2.58 billion or +4.3% more than in 2019, of which the stock turnover accounted for HRK 2.3 billion, which is +5.56% more than in 2019.

Compared to the last day of 2019, the market value measured by market capitalization on December 31, 2020, is higher by a total of +7.1 billion HRK or +2.7%, while the equity market capitalization is lower by HRK -10.6 billion or -7.18%. In addition to the already known Covid-19 impact, the reason for the decline in the equity market capitalization is reflected in the fewer number of listed shares (above graph). On 31 December 2020, a total of 15 shares were listed less than on the same day in 2019, 14 shares less on the Regular, and two shares less on the Official Market, of which one has transited to a higher quotation, Prime Market.

The main source of income, commissions and membership fees, increased from HRK 4,005 to HRK 4,117 thousand, i.e. by HRK +112 thousand or +2.79%, which was greatly influenced by the already mentioned increased trading volume from the end of February to the end of April 2020. However, observing only the fourth quarter of 2020, commissions and membership fees fell from HRK 1,146 to HRK 905 thousand compared to the fourth quarter of the previous year, i.e. HRK -241 thousand or -21.06%. In addition to the higher number of newly listed securities than in the previous year (eight shares, three bonds and two ETFs were listed in 2020, while two shares and four bonds were listed in 2019), income from quotation maintenance also increased within sales revenues (increase from HRK 882 to HRK 1.181 thousand, or by HRK +299 thousand or +33.89%), while revenue from assigning and administering LEIs fell from HRK 396 to 370 thousand (HRK -26 thousand or -6.6%).

The significantly lower amount of other income in 2020 compared to the year before, mostly due to fewer educations, which is why, in one part, revenues from seminars were missing (in 2019 seminar revenues amounted to HRK 1,127 thousand). However, despite the COVID-19 crisis, the Company organized educationsthrough online platforms and in 2020 generated smaller but significant income from seminars in the amount of HRK 643 thousand. Within the item other income, an increase was also recorded in revenues from Progress (HRK +83 thousand or +130%), revenues from LJSE (HRK +86 thousand or +36%), and revenues from OTC data disclosure fees (HRK +52 thousand or +11%).

The Company's total operating expenses in 2020 amounted to HRK 13,427 thousand, which is a decrease of HRK -1,414 thousand or -9.53% compared to 2019 when operating expenses amounted to HRK 14,841 thousand. This significant decline in operating expenses is directly related to the changed way of working due to the coronavirus pandemic, primarily working from home. The decrease in operating expenses was mostly due to the decrease in other costs (HRK -565 thousand or -24.5%, i.e. from HRK 2,307 to HRK 1,742 thousand), which was due to the decrease in costs of translation, attorney, notary, and consulting services, royalties related to education, representation, business trips, and PR. Compared to 2019, in 2020, the decline was recorded in other operating expenses (HRK -440 thousand or -80.83%; from HRK 544 to HRK 104 thousand), material costs (HRK -439 thousand or - 11,19%; from HRK 3,925 to HRK 3,485 thousand), and value adjustment of fixed and current assets (HRK -102 thousand or -26.39%; from HRK 388 to HRK 286 thousand), while staff costs increased by HRK +82 thousand or +1.25% (from HRK 6,600 to HRK 6,682 thousand) which is within the planned, and depreciation by HRK +50 thousand or +4.66% (from HRK 1,077 to HRK 1,127 thousand).

In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company's net profit amounted to HRK 522 thousand, which is HRK +613 thousand more than HRK -91 thousand of net loss for the same period of the previous year.
