1. Unaudited investment performance less all costs of operating Ryder Capital Ltd including investment management and performance fees and ignoring the dilutionary impact of unexercised outstanding RYDOA options.
2. Inception Date is 22 September 2015.
3. Pre-tax NTA return adjusted for the dilution of the exercised 26.7m RYDO options.
4. Excess Return will be calculated with reference to undiluted NTA return as of February 2019 to better reflect underlying fund performance consistent with the Manager’s performance measurement.
Investment Commentary
Pre-tax NTA increased by 2.38 cents per share to $1.6201 or +1.49% in December, despite the ASX All Ordinaries Accumulation (XAO Accumulation) closing out the calendar year with a negative 1.9% monthly return for December. Overall it was a very strong year for Australian equities with the XAO Accumulation returning 24.06%, just ahead of our 23.26% net pre-tax return, achieved with an average monthly cash weighting of 22.07% making for a pleasing risk adjusted return.
pivotal year in 2020. We continue to view the carrying value for UPD in the Ryder accounts as conservative and are working through a review process concurrently with the completion of the 1H accounts.
Cash holdings fell slightly to $19.4m and on a relative basis from 21.87% to 19.95% - noting consideration from the QMS Media Ltd Scheme of Arrangement once approved, will increase cash by a further $3.1m.
December’s performance was assisted through a material exposure to Macmahon Holdings Limited which continues to re-rate on the back of an improved earnings outlook. There were no noteworthy negatives during the month with little other portfolio activity warranting discussion.
