Financial objectives are internal objectives of Flow Traders to measure its operational performance and should not be read as indicating that Flow Traders is targeting such metrics for any particular fiscal year.

Flow Traders’ ability to achieve these financial objectives is inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Flow Traders’ control, and upon assumptions with respect to future business decisions that are subject to change. As a result, Flow Traders’ actual results may vary from these financial objectives, and those variations may be material.

Efficiencies are net, before tax and on a run-rate basis, i.e. taking into account the full- year impact of any measure to be undertaken before the end of the period mentioned. The expected operating efficiencies and cost savings were prepared on the basis of a number of assumptions, projections and estimates, many of which depend on factors that are beyond Flow Traders’ control. These assumptions, projections and estimates are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and actual results may differ, perhaps materially, from those projected. Flow Traders cannot provide any assurance that these assumptions are correct and that these projections and estimates will reflect Flow Traders’ actual results of operations.

Maintaining cost discipline to preserve operating margins

Investor Presentation 11

Impact of decline in Net Trading Income compensated by reduction in variable component of operating expenses

� Increase in fixed employee expenses in line with expectation and driven by recruitment in September, increase in headcount

� Technological developments continued to improve performance, with a special focus on the US and Asian offices

� Technology expenses declined marginally versus 2Q due to mainly lower connectivity costs

� Variable employee expenses reduced on the back of profit for the quarter

� Other expenses grew, containing cost items like housing, fixed exchange costs. Housing showed a peak following increase in headcount in September

� Flow Traders is on track to realize second best year to date
