The Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) today announced its annual financial results for the year ended 31 December 2022, posting R749 million net profit after tax (NPAT) – a 4% year-on-year (YoY) increase. Headline earnings per share (HEPS) also increased by 4% to 917.7 cents (2021: 878.9 cents) per share, and earnings before interest, tax and depreciation (EBITDA) increased by 1% to R1.07 billion (2021: R1.06 bn). “The JSE’s solid performance reflects the quality of our earnings and the resilience of our operating platforms within a challenging trading environment.

I am pleased to report year-on-year growth of 4% in headline earnings per share, and a strong Return on Equity of 18%, well within our long-term target range,” says Leila Fourie, JSE Group CEO. The bourse recorded revenue growth across its business segments with a growing contribution from non-trading revenue in line with its diversification strategy. Operating revenue grew 5% to R2.7 billion, with an 11% increase in revenue from Information Services (IS) and a 28% increase in revenue from JSE Investor Services (JIS). This performance is underpinned by robust operational processes and 99.9% uptime across our markets.
