Investment Commentary
The pre-tax undiluted NTA for the month of February declined by 0.41% to $1.5250. We were pleased with the performance of our key long term holdings which reported strong earnings and near term outlooks - NextDC Limited & Codan Limited were standouts. Our largest position Updater Inc. is now poised for an important period of progressive monetisation of their data assets which we expect will have a material impact on valuation over the coming quarter(s). Topbetta Holdings Limited has continued to run into difficulties with their license approvals in the Northern Territory, causing extended delays in onboarding key new clients to their Global Tote platform. We added to our holdings in Flexigroup Limited on the back of a reasonable first half and improving/stabilising forward projections, taking our exposure to just above 5%. Cash holdings for the period increased in nominal terms as we continue to trim selected positions where valuations have met or exceeded our view of intrinsic worth which will add both nominally and relatively to cash weightings over the coming month(s).
