18/11/2015 07:42 | Still a very firm hold. It's pleasant when an investment needs only infrequent monitoring. Hubris? Hope not ... | jonwig | |
18/11/2015 07:10 | Interim Highlights For the six months ended 30 September 2015 · Net asset value ("NAV") per share (as at 30 September 2015) of 139.1p; up 2.4p (1.8%) from the NAV per share of 136.7p at 31 March 2015. · Total shareholder return for the period of 9.0% (annualised), based on interim dividends declared plus uplift in NAV per share in the six month period. · Aggregate quarterly dividends declared for the first half of 3.72p per share (2014: 3.62p); on track to achieve the Company's aggregate dividend target of 7.45p per share for the full year1. · Target dividend guidance for the financial year to 31 March 2017 of 7.60p per share1. · Value of the Group's investment portfolio up 8.1% in the six months, based on a 30 September 2015 valuation of £1,872.1m2 (31 March 2015: £1,732.2m2). · Weighted average discount rate reduced from 7.9% to 7.7% over the six month period, reflecting projects reaching construction completion and ongoing, strong demand for similar infrastructure investments. · Two new investments and two incremental stakes acquired during the period for £130.7m funded by £91.2m equity tap issue in July and drawings under the Group's revolving credit facility. · Current net funding requirement of approximately £30m - Board considering a tap issue in the near future. · Since the period end, the Group has increased its revolving credit facility from £150m to £200m on improved terms, including a reduction in the margin. | skinny | |

30/7/2015 07:21 | The plan was to issue up to 32m new shares raising £48m gross (ie. 150p/sh). Today they announce an issue of 60m shares at 152p ... HICL is still a very much in demand stock! | jonwig | |
28/7/2015 18:53 | If rising interest rates are accompanied by inflation, infrastructure has some indexing built into their income. So fixed rate bonds have some disadvantage, but maybe infrastructure has some lurking political risk? | jonwig | |
28/7/2015 15:21 | Would you prefer bonds or infrastructure in a rising interest rate environment? | beltd | |
27/7/2015 07:59 | Tap issue of up to 32m new shares at, by implication, about 150p. They're using a bookbuild so institutional demand will determine the price. Since current share total is 1,270m and NAV was 130p last time (it will be more now) that's small beer. However, I know that at least two brokers (Brewin Dolphin, Chas Stanley) are cooling on HICL for their discretionary management, viewing the premium to NAV as excessive. | jonwig | |
24/7/2015 07:57 | So the forecast dividend of 7.45% means a yield of 4.9%. What happens if/when interest rates rise early next year? Market will want a higher yield (over 5%?) and discount rate will rise a bit, suppressing the NAV. Plus they're issuing regularly 10% of their share capital each year before they even offer shares to Joe Public. But then the "true" NAV based on disposals is a lot higher than the calculated one. A "hold" for me, but no more. | jonwig | |
07/7/2015 08:36 | Yes my first thought on seeing the Southmead Hospital announcement was the likelihood of another fundraising. It will have to be at a decent discount to the present share price and will bring down the premium and the share price. Not sure that I will throw any more cash at HICL. GAN | ganthorpe | |
07/7/2015 07:14 | Aquisition of Southmead hospital project from Carillion: Interesting thing is that this is partly a completed and operational project, and partly under construction (being extended). They add that current net funding requirement for HICL is £47m. Since they last had a fundraising in June 2014, can we expect another? (It won't involve pre-emption rights.) On the other hand, chartists might not like the look of the share price chart at the moment! | jonwig | |
29/6/2015 21:49 | Hmm looking for more of these, a lovely diversification with interest rates low and the equity bear waking | madengland | |
26/6/2015 18:39 | More projects should enable these guys to cherry pick for solid less risky, good yields and returns.....With their sleek silhouettes and bright, roomy interiors, 115 new Class 700 Thameslink trains will begin service through Central London next year. Faster, lighter and more energy-efficient than the rolling stock they replace, these eight-car and 12-car electric trains will double capacity on one of Europe's busiest stretches of railway. Their much-anticipated arrival is part of a £6 billion upgrade program for Thameslink.Urbanizin | madengland | |
26/6/2015 10:18 | Seems like a solid entry point to a solid fund, and if you don't fancy bonds anymore, a great alternative. There will be plenty of decent infrastructure projects to come I suspect | madengland | |

21/5/2015 07:30 | Nothing wrong with being cynical when it comes to investing! | skinny | |
21/5/2015 07:17 | No signs of a flattening-off, then! At last night's close, the premium to latest reported NAV has narrowed to under 14%. If it reverts to more like 20%, that suggests the share price could rise back to 165p. And dividend expectations raised to 7.45p: a yield of 4.8%. (Cynical of me to suggest that they set expectations at a level they knew would be beaten!) | jonwig | |

16/5/2015 08:48 | New infrastructure ETF which might be worth following. Thread here: The EPIC is "GIN" which might be the most interesting thing about it! | jonwig | |
14/5/2015 11:39 | Sounds good | yam114 | |
14/5/2015 11:08 | HICL Infrastructure Company Limited (the "Company") is pleased to announce a fourth quarterly interim dividend for the financial year ending 31 March 2015 of 1.87 pence per ordinary share (the "Q4 Dividend"). The shares will go ex-dividend on 28 May 2015 and the Q4 Dividend will be paid on 30 June 2015 to shareholders on the register as at the close of business on 29 May 2015. The interim dividend of 1.87 pence per share equates to an aggregate of 7.30 pence per share for the year ending 31 March 2015, ahead of the Board's target of 7.25 pence per share, a reflection of the Company's strong performance. The Company is announcing its annual results on Thursday 21 May 2015. | skinny | |
23/4/2015 10:00 | Fingers crossed Labour don't get in and start screwing everything up | madengland | |
23/4/2015 07:25 | 9% above internal valuation. When they can't sell stuff at a premium is the time to reconsider these funds as an investment. Incidentally, Labour's plans for infrastructure: But what plans will it have to control profitability of existing PPI/PFI projects? | jonwig | |
23/4/2015 07:03 | HICL Infrastructure Company Limited, the listed infrastructure investment company advised by InfraRed Capital Partners Limited, announces that the Group has sold its entire 50% equity and subordinated debt interest and 100% junior loan interest in Fife Schools PFI project ("Fife") to a subsidiary of the PPP Equity PIP limited partnership, managed by Dalmore Capital Limited. The decision to sell the Group's investment in Fife was triggered by the same co-shareholder selling their interest in the Fife project as that in the Colchester Garrison project, announced in February 2015. As with Colchester, this disposal was undertaken by way of a competitive tender process, providing a benchmark value for the Company's interest in Fife which the Board considered to be significantly ahead of the value that could be achieved by retaining the project. The Board continues to consider and evaluate potential disposals which are in the best interests of shareholders. The profit on disposal, after costs, is £0.6m over the Directors' valuation of £6.7m as at 30 September 2014. As a result of recent investment activity funded from the Group's revolving debt facility, and net of disposal proceeds from the present transaction, the Group has a current funding requirement of approximately £8m. | skinny |
