A very positive update. The fundraising potential for GRID is enormous in my view.

MIDAS SHARE TIPS UPDATE: Our battery storage tip Gresham House charges ahead By Joanne Hart, Financial Mail on Sunday Published: 21:51 GMT, 19 February 2022 | Updated: 21:51 GMT, 19 February 2022 The UK generates about 40 per cent of its electricity from renewable sources, such as wind and solar. Boris Johnson would like to take that to 100 per cent by 2035 and, with oil and gas prices going through the roof, an increasing number of households are likely to agree with him. Gresham House is one of the companies helping to make Britain greener. A fast-growing investment firm, it manages £6.5billion of investors' cash, channelling much of it into areas such as battery storage, forestry, energy from waste and sustainable, vertical farming. Midas recommended Gresham House in July 2020, when the shares were £6.28. Today, they are 41 per cent higher at £8.85, chief executive Tony Dalwood is more ambitious than ever and the shares should continue to motor. Powering ahead: Midas recommended Gresham House in July 2020, when the shares were £6.28 Powering ahead: Midas recommended Gresham House in July 2020, when the shares were £6.28 Wind and solar energy may be good for the planet, but they are unpredictable. Being able to store surplus power in giant batteries is a critical part of the renewable mix and Gresham House owns and manages more battery storage farms than any other UK firm. Today, the company has more than 15 sites across the country, capable of storing 425MW of electricity. But that will soar to 1.5GW over the next 18 months, enough to power 550 homes for an entire year. Gresham House also owns more woodland than any other UK firm, with 350,000 acres of forest – about the size of London. The group recently bought another 62,000 acres in Australia. There is some forestry in Ireland too and more overseas deals are on the cards. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, offsetting greenhouse gas emissions, and, handled correctly, timber is considered the most sustainable material in the building trade. Vertical farming is another growth area for the group. A salad-producing farm is up and running in Staffordshire and a second site will be ready to go later this year. Based in Norfolk, this is expected to be the biggest vertical farm in the world, capable of producing more than 2,000 tons of leafy greens a year. Other Gresham interests include waste from energy plants, digital infrastructure to improve access to good quality broadband and affordable shared housing, designed to mitigate the UK's housing crisis. The group also manages several high-ranking private and listed equity funds and a number of venture capital trusts. The mix has proved popular. In 2020, the company had about £3billion of assets under management and Dalwood had said he wanted to double that by 2025. Having delivered on his goal in less than two years, Dalwood has now increased the target to £8billion and should comfortably achieve it. Results for 2021, out in early March, are expected to show a 53 per cent increase in profits to £18.5million, rising to £24million in the current year. A dividend of 7p has been pencilled in for 2021, climbing to 8p this year. Dalwood is also keen to set out a dividend policy so shareholders know what to expect in future. Midas verdict: With a focus on sustainable, green assets, Gresham House is in the right place at the right time and many of the group's assets should also hold their own in a more inflationary environment. At £8.85, the shares have already delivered rich rewards, but they should continue to gain ground. A strong hold. Traded on: AIM Ticker: GHE Contact: greshamhouse.com or 020 3837 6270

...from last year... Gresham House PLC is a United Kingdom-based specialist alternative asset manager. The Company offers a range of funds, direct investments and investment opportunities, including co-investment, across various alternative investment strategies. Its segments include Real Assets, Strategic Equity and Central. Current market cap is around £305m. GHE today announced another sizeable increase in its AUM (assets under management) in H1 to £4.7b at end-June. (£4.0b. at end December 2020). This was a £761m increase or 19% growth in AUM over a 6-month period.  Of this increase £457m or 12% was organic. These are pretty impressive growth rates for both total and organic growth... ...from WealthOracleAM https://wealthoracle.co.uk/detailed-result-full/GHE/25

Taken advantage of current market weakness to top up. The trading update on 9th Dec was extremely positive giving rise to 11% jump in share price on the day. 7% of these gains have evaporated but as per the trading update the y/e 31 Dec results are likely to be very strong.

Any shares of performance fees and carried interests from the various private llp funds?

[mw8156] 15/12/2021 12:20

also has warrants, LTIP and share options... warrants are in addition to share options.

[ec2] 12/12/2021 14:27

Basic salary 375k, cash bonus 535k, deferred bonus 100k, pension 38k, other benefits 3k. I do agree the remuneration package is high, but has to be viewed in the context of the business.

[mw8156] 10/12/2021 16:11

comment elsewhere, Investors Champion, that the 'CEO paid 1m last accounts when operating profit was 1.9m' - does this result from the LTIP,share options and bonuses?... may be necessary to remunerate the CEO very adequately in a growing fund manager wanting to attract talent though much of the success is due to the exceptional circumstances in forestry and renewables so divis for ordinary shareholders also should be important as they are the ones who provided the capital?

[ec2] 10/12/2021 10:18

Looks like good follow through in the share price again today. This is an extremely well positioned boutique asset manager for ESG trends. If the share price fails to recognise this going forward, I can see the Company being swallowed up by a much larger asset manager looking to beef up their ESG / renewables capabilities.

[seen_it_done_it] 09/11/2021 20:11

Nice late bounce with a small UT trade. Perhaps we'll see this back up to £9 again soon.

[ec2] 05/11/2021 09:08

I have been a little disappointed in these of late but then I logged into their capital markets day webinar yesterday and was most impressed. Their ESG focused investment strategies covering battery storage, renewables, forestry and vertical farming are spot on and very much aligned with current investment trends and tailwinds. I can see their strategies being very popular with investors, investment consultants and local authority pension funds. The webinar is due to be posted on their website and well worth a listen.

Some scaling back. Allotted 74% of my application. (I'm an existing shareholder, allocation may be different for new investors.)

[ec2] 10/9/2021 13:54

Point of note is that today's price rise is on very low volume. Will be interesting to see how it performs in good free flowing two way traffic.

[n0rbie] 10/9/2021 11:28

Not heard of Gresham before but taken the opportunity to take a small amount via PB. Acquisition and results look very positive.

[melody9999] 10/9/2021 10:25

Yes EC2 - I've been following GHE for some time but only had chance to do limited extra research on GHE today before deciding to subscribe for the Primarybid offer before it closed. Wonder if we will be scaled back? That would be disappointing given only £2M through Primarybid whilst £40M in the placing.

[ec2] 10/9/2021 09:29

Excellent results again today. I see this as an excellent way to play the renewables sector (solar, battery storage, forestry). Not much notice to take up the offer for subscription today. Just got my application in on time to Primary Bid.

[mw8156] 19/8/2021 12:47

with regard to today's announcement, too much money chasing too few opportunities in forestry with Foresight and Par equity also involved so competition for unplanted land and existing forests ferocious?

Price drop is linked to GHE seeking to enforce better governance on the board of Gresham House Strategic Inv Tst (GHS) for whom GHE are the asset manager and also hold an over 20% stake. In my view it shows strong principles on the part of GHE and the present impact in the GHE share price I see as a buying opportunity. I topped up very slightly yesterday hedging my bets incase the share price falls further. Incidentally, the largest holding in GHS received a takeover bid yesterday providing a positive benefit for GHE's stake in the trust. The holding in question represents 23% of the GHS trust.

[notbitcoin] 27/5/2021 12:02

Why the drop

[r2oo] 14/5/2021 13:08

Ok so I'm looking at Gresham house and Gore street.Who owns both or just one of these and why one over the other?Let's hear your views and comparisons.
