The Company continues to generate asset growth through relatively strong
performance and net asset flows across institutional, retail intermediary and
private client segments. As a result, and despite market headwinds in the
domestic markets, assets under management held steady at $20.4 billion as at
June 30, 2013 quarter over quarter (QoQ), and increased 20% year over year
(YoY). Assets under administration were slightly down to $10.3 billion as at
June 30, 2013, a decrease of less than 2% QoQ and an increase of 16% YoY.
For the second quarter of 2013, the Company is reporting net earnings before
gains on securities held for sale of $6.3 million or $0.20 per share, compared
to $2.8 million or $0.09 per share in 2012. This 120% increase in net earnings
before net gains on securities held for sale was brought about by improvements
both in operating earnings across all main business segments, and net gains. Net
earnings available to shareholders for the quarter were $5.0 million or $0.16
per share, compared to a loss of $0.1 million or $ nil per share in the second
quarter of 2012. Net earnings available to shareholders have been reduced by
$1.2 million in the second quarter of 2013 ($3.0 million in 2012) as a result of
decreases in the value of investments in mutual funds which are categorized as
held for sale.
Adjusted cash flow from operations for the quarter was $6.9 million, or $0.22
per share, compared to $5.2 million, or $0.17 per share in the second quarter of
2012. EBITDA available to shareholders for the quarter were up over 25% at $7.9
million, or $0.25 per share, compared to $6.3 million, or $0.20 per share for
the second quarter of 2012.

share at December 31, 2012. The Company's shareholders' equity at June 30, 2013
was $355 million, or $11.27 per share, compared with $354 million, or $11.16 per
share at December 31, 2012.

payable on October 17, 2013, to shareholders of record on October 10, 2013.
