Third Quarter Report 2012 Overview At the close of the first nine months of 2012 the Barbados Stock Exchange (BSE) was recording decreases in both trading volume and trading value. Total trading volume of shares traded decreased by 64% while total trading value of shares traded recorded a decrease of 88% when compared with the corresponding period in 2011. As mentioned in previous reports, these large decreases can be attributed to the extra-ordinary transactions which occurred during the first quarter of 2011; the takeover of ANSA McAL Barbados Limited by AMCL Holdings Limited and the takeover of Light and Power Holdings Limited by EMERA (Barbados) Holdings No. 2 Incorporated. The Odd-Lot and Put-Through Markets both experienced increases in volume with the later also experiencing increases in value. Falling share prices, however, resulted in decreases in the value of shares traded on the Odd-Lot Market. The Put-Through Market experienced the largest increase of 40% in terms of volume traded and the largest increase in terms of value at 46%. There was also nominal activity on the Junior Market and no activity on the Block Trade Market.

Third Quarter Report 2012

Overview

At the close of the first nine months of 2012 the Barbados Stock Exchange (BSE) was recording

decreases in both trading volume and trading value. Total trading volume of shares traded decreased by

64% while total trading value of shares traded recorded a decrease of 88% when compared with the

corresponding period in 2011. As mentioned in previous reports, these large decreases can be attributed

to the extra-ordinary transactions which occurred during the first quarter of 2011; the takeover of ANSA

McAL Barbados Limited by AMCL Holdings Limited and the takeover of Light and Power Holdings Limited

by EMERA (Barbados) Holdings No. 2 Incorporated.

The Odd-Lot and Put-Through Markets both experienced increases in volume with the later also

experiencing increases in value. Falling share prices, however, resulted in decreases in the value of

shares traded on the Odd-Lot Market. The Put-Through Market experienced the largest increase of 40%

in terms of volume traded and the largest increase in terms of value at 46%. There was also nominal

activity on the Junior Market and no activity on the Block Trade Market.

Odd- Lot Market

The Odd-Lot market recorded an increase in trading volume, however, due to falling share prices, it

recorded decreases in trading value for the first nine months of 2012. The total volume of shares traded

of 140,786 was 5% greater than the 134,529 shares traded for the same period in 2011. The total value

of shares traded on the Odd-Lot Market fell by 14%. The 2012 value traded was $596,466 as compared

to $694,957 traded at the close of the third quarter of 2011.

Financial Corporation was the most actively traded security in terms of volume for the year to date,

trading 45,506 shares valued at $106,191. They were followed by Banks Holdings Limited and Goddard

Enterprises Limited which traded 22,298 and 18,444 shares respectively.

traded for the period ended September 30th, 2012. Trading just 18,444 shares at an average share price

of $5.82, Goddard Enterprises Limited's traded value of $107,324.70 exceeded Sagicor Financial

Index and Market Capitalization Movement

There were favorable results for the indices and market capitalization when examined over the past

three, nine and twelve month periods. For the third quarter, as illustrated in Table 14, only the local

index recorded a decline from its positions at June 30th, 2012. The Cross-Listed Index recorded the

largest increase of 10.21% resulting in a 3.72% increase in the Composite Index which factors in the

performance of both the Local and Cross-Listed securities. When the comparison is extended to nine

and 12 months (Table 15 and Table 16), performance was similar, as the Local index recorded declines

of 2.27% and 3.38% respectively while the Cross-Listed Index recorded increases in excess of 10% for

both periods.

The market capitalization comparisons, illustrated in Table 17 - 19, had similar results; the Local Market

Capitalization experienced declines over the 3 month and 12 month period but recorded a 0.70%

increase over the 9 month period. The Cross-Listed Market Capitalization recorded increases for the 3

month (8.26%), 9 month (14.70%) and 12 month (12.53%) comparisons. These results can be attributed

to marked increases in the share prices of both Neal and Massy Holdings Limited and One Caribbean

Media Limited. One Caribbean Media Limited's share price appreciated from $2.95 at the close of 2011

to $5.00 by the end of the third quarter; an increase of $2.05. Neal and Massy Holdings Limited's share

price went up $0.45 from $13.60 at the close of 2011 to $14.05 at the close of the period ended

September 30th, 2012.

Conclusion

Table 22 - Regional Index Comparative Analysis

Performance Three

Month Nine

Month Twelve Month

Barbados Stock Exchange Composite Index 3.72% 3.76% 2.17%

Jamaica Stock Exchange Market Index -0.24% -8.71% -4.62%

Trinidad and Tobago Composite Index 4.30% 5.29% 7.80%

The third quarter of 2012 has been encouraging for the Barbados Stock Exchange despite decreases in

both trading volumes and values of 40% and 5% respectively. Two new securities were listed on the

board of the Exchange and Composite Index figures showed increases of 3.72% for the three month,

3.76% for the nine month and 2.17% for the twelve month. It should be noted, however, that at the

close of the third quarter of 2011 the BSE three month Composite Index declined by 0.95%, while the

nine and twelve month Indices recorded increases of 8.62% and 2.48% respectively. The 2012 results,

while not indicative of any sustainable long term growth or reversal of negative trends in the local

capital market, were caused primarily by movements in the share prices of Cross-Listed securities. A look

at our regional counterparts shows that while the Trinidad and Tobago Stock Exchange (TTSE) have

recorded index growth over the three, nine and twelve month periods, the Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE)

has recorded declines across all the periods under analysis. The most notable increases were

experienced by the TTSE's Composite Index which recorded a 5.29% increase over the nine month

period and a 7.80% increase over the twelve month.

As we look toward the 4th quarter of 2012 and beyond, the BSE continues to strive to provide the local

capital market with an efficient and effective market place for the trading of securities. On October 8th,

2012 the BSE will be removing the Odd-Lot Market threshold of 999 shares and instituting individual

thresholds for each security listed on the board of the BSE based on a percentage of their respective

listed securities. Share prices will only change when a single trade in a security meets or exceeds the

specified threshold. For further information please visit our website - www.bse.com.bb. The BSE also

recognizes the value it can add to the International Business and Financial Services Sector (IBFS) and, to

this end, have commenced work on the drafting of Rules for the International Securities Market (ISM)

which will enhance Barbados' current offering to International Business Companies (IBCs) by allowing

them not only to incorporate their operations here, but to also utilize the same prospectus used for

incorporation to list their securities to raise capital. The ISM would negate the listing of the IBC's

securities in another jurisdiction thus reducing the costs to the IBC associated with generating an

additional prospectus for listing thus making Barbados a one stop shop for IBCs. Our consultants will be

onshore at the start of the 4th quarter to meet with potential players in the IBFS to gather information to

assist in their preparation of the draft rules for the ISM.

The BSE continues to strive for excellence and wishes to thank all market participants - Listed

Companies, Brokers, Investors - for their support as we fulfill our mandate to 'build a better market'.
