Q3 2015 Key Highlights

• Net Trading Income increased 32% to €92.8 million (2Q15: €70.5 million) as a result of strong growth in the underlying market resulting in higher revenue capture and trading volumes, boosted by periods of higher volatility in some financial markets

• ETPs traded value increased 20% to €180 billion (2Q15: €150 billion), revenue capture increased by 0.4 basis point to 5.1 basis points
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ increased 32% to €48.4 million (2Q15: €36.7 million) with an adjusted EBITDA margin remaining stable at 52% (2Q15: 52%) resulting from relatively low and stable fixed operating expenses. YTD adjusted EBITDA was €125.4 million compared to €44.0 million last year

• Interim dividend paid out was €0.50 per share

Sjoerd Rietberg co-CEO of Flow Traders commented: "Global ETP trading volumes were 20% higher in 3Q15 than in 2Q15. This was predominantly a result of various financial market events in the US during the period and the continuing underlying trend of strong inflows to the ETP market. Our ETP value traded increased 20% compared to 2Q15, in line with market volumes. Our net trading income increased 32% compared to 2Q15 and 141% YTD15 compared to YTD14 as a result of improvements in our pricing and infrastructure, the strong growth in the underlying market, and was further boosted by certain periods of high volatility in the markets."

Quarterly Results

^* Pro forma, calculated on the basis of post-IPO Flow Traders N.V. share capital of 46,534,500 shares.

During 3Q15, there were notable events that contributed to increases in value traded, such as the Chinese market events at the beginning of July and movements in commodity prices, currencies and equities on the 24^th of August.

The Company's ETP value traded increased 20% compared to 2Q15 in line with market volumes. Its net trading income increased 32% compared to 2Q15 to €92.8 million, reflecting an average increase in revenue capture of 0.4 basis points, to 5.1 basis points. Flow Traders' net trading income YTD15 increased with 141% to €240.2 million compared to YTD14, outperforming both the growth in Assets under Management and the growth in market ETP value traded.

Adjusted EBITDA margin remained stable at 52% given operating leverage from the efficient and predictable fixed cost base.

Fixed personnel expenses remained stable at a level of €5.0 million in 3Q15. As at September 30, 2015, Flow Traders employed 252 full-time equivalents (June 30, 2015: 239).

Operating Segment Review

Europe

In Europe, ETP assets under management² decreased 3%, to €453 billion at September 30, 2015 from €467 billion at June 30, 2015. This decrease was mainly driven by adverse market conditions as there was an inflow recorded in Europe of €54 billion² YTD15. The Company's ETP value traded increased by approximately 20%, resulting in a net trading income increase of 15% to €52.3 million in 3Q15 and 118% YTD15 compared to previous year.

Flow Traders further increased the number of institutional counterparties the company trades with and experienced growth in the off-exchange ETP trading volumes, and maintained its market leading positions with stable market shares and top ranks on the major European exchanges.

Americas

In the Americas, ETP assets under management² decreased 6% to €1.8 trillion in 3Q15 from approximately €1.9 trillion in 2Q15. However, due to certain periods of high volatility, the market ETP value traded increased by 28% to €3.3 trillion from 2Q15 to 3Q15. Flow Traders' ETP value traded increased by 13.2%. However, due to further improvements in pricing and quality of execution the Company increased its average revenue capture to 3.7 basis points in 3Q15 from 1.9 basis points in 2Q15. As a result, the net trading income in the region YTD15 increased by 87% to €38.4 million compared to YTD14.

On the back of this quarter's results, the Company expects to add additional liquidity venues over the next six months in addition to the start of off-screen block trading.

Asia

In Asia, ETP assets under management decreased 4% to approximately €199 billion in 3Q15 from approximately €208 billion in 2Q15. The market ETP value traded decreased by 17% to €422 billion from 2Q15 to 3Q15 mainly driven by developments in the Chinese markets. Despite this, the company was able to increase its ETP value traded² by 103% YTD15 to €48bn compared to €24bn YTD14. There was a slight decrease in the average revenue capture to 11.5 basis points in 3Q15 from 11.9 basis points in 2Q15. However due to certain periods of high volatility, the net trading income in the region increased by 37% to €23 million from €16.8 million. YTD15 this growth is 390% compared to the same period in 2014.

YTD15 consisted of three comparable and strong quarters; specifically, 3Q15 experienced some periods of high volatility resulting in increased trading volumes in combination with increasing revenue capture and a positive contribution to the net trading income.

Financial Condition

Flow Traders' robust global capital base is significantly in excess of the requirements of both its prime brokers and the relevant regulators. Given the nature of the Company's liquidity provision activities and the models used by the respective prime brokers and regulators, the required capital can fluctuate significantly on a daily and intraday basis. We manage and monitor our capital requirements continuously, adhering to the basic principle of staying well in excess of requirements under varying market circumstances.

Other

The Company has entered into a so-called 'horizontaal toezicht' agreement (covenant) with the Dutch tax authorities as of 14 September 2015. Based on the principles of trust, transparency and corporate responsibility, the Dutch tax authorities grant companies that have met certain conditions to enter in such an agreement which in turn offers several benefits. In particular, the covenant will allow us to more transparently communicate our tax positions and better anticipate and streamline our corporate tax returns. This should result in less retroactive audits and questionnaires, i.e. a smooth and reliable taxation process.

During the fourth quarter Flow Traders expects to complete the sale of part of our infrastructure. No material financial impact is expected.
