Investment Commentary
The diluted pre-tax NTA for August decreased by 2.21% to $1.5233. The month of August saw all our investee companies report either their full or half year earnings. We were generally pleased with all respective results, noting Aurelia Metals Limited, Codan Limited, Flexigroup Limited and SRG Limited all reported at or above guidance and/or market expectations. NextDC Limited reported above guidance, however slower sales in 2H FY18 highlighted concerns around their ability to fulfil their enlarged capacity plans resulting in price weakness as short term momentum turned materially negative. Updater Inc. announced a (surprise) proposed ASX delisting (since approved) which has caused substantial selling pressure due to mandate restrictions and consequently price weakness has been the outcome. Ryder is able to maintain its shareholding (see ASX release 7/9/18) and we expect this decision will ultimately realise greater value for all Ryder shareholders. The performance of Updater due to this event dragged overall portfolio performance into the negative. We expect this weakness to be short-lived, and with core holdings providing positive forward guidance we feel the portfolio is well placed to weather current market volatility. The payment of accrued fees as at 30 June reduced cash in nominal terms to 14.4%.
