..wind up & cash payout

which should be ~73p/share imo

hence the Marshall in charge was buying shares at ~50p.

-----

The main Marshall business is I think Monteagle......which is a holding company, with subsidiaries, mostly import/export & property investing I think I recall.
If they see better returns over the next 10 years from a sector where 1 of the Monteagle subsidiaries is working then be logical if they want move cash to that. (while, sure, buying shares at ~50p to then get 73p/share cash payout only a few months later, that is great % low risk return)

The performance from LFI has been dismal & has not kept up with inflation so it is very understandable to give up the LFI strategy.

Sadly it does not look like LFI needs cash to fund construction costs of housing at the ICH subsidiary, if that was the case LFI would not have sold its ICH shares.

Kneecaps I think you are assuming the board know what they will do next. They have liquidated the portfolio therefore the options look like a) winding the company up b) having a massive tender offer to take out 90%+ of the shareholders at close to asset value and then delist and re-register as a private company, c) merge with another company, d) acquire a trading business e) do nothing. I think the Marshalls have other companies and I don't know how that could affect their plans for LFI. I think if someone had a cunning plan for LFI then they should suggest it to the board. My expectation is a) or b). They have done a lot of tidying up by, selling the flat, closing down Western Selection, slimming down City Group and selling the share portfolio so I don't expect LFI has long left as a listed company.

...has LFI stated what its plans are ?

to change from an investing company to a non-investing company is a major change that surely must be communicated (in advance) to shareholders, no ?

------

LFI & Western provided good annual income & payment of expenses to the Marshall's over decades
...so, its a bit surprising if the Marshall's decide to give that up....but it looks like they might be...

----

prelim annual results said
"The Board continues to pursue its current Investment Policy and will advise shareholders of any proposed changes. "

.....appears to have been completely untrue..since "all" the investments have since been sold, only weeks later !!

what is the situation with Industrial & Commercial Holdings ltd ?

it held some land in sunny Scotland & the co. have been trying for ~15-20 years to get planning/building permission for homes, in which case the land would be worth much more.

In 1 bit of LFI text, LFI bought the Western Selection stake (30% ?) for £50k....but then sold it for £50k. (if so it might infer that LFI saw no likelyhood of a rise in its value.

Anyone know anything ?

Callumross, I didn't read it that way. They have the problems of increasing costs and dull investment performance and would like LFI to be a larger entity. Having a South African listing as well makes a UK delisting unlikely in the short term. I hope the larger non-Marshall shareholders keep up their lobbying to return value to shareholders with either a share buyback or a transformative deal.

I haven't tried to calculate the hidden upside but the City decision on MWB should result in some compensation to former MWB shareholders such as LFI from the non-bid. This could potentially delay any winding up but lead to more value for LFI shareholders. Google MWB takeover if you have no idea what I'm talking about.

Either the share price has got way ahead of events or there are events that we don't know about yet. Share price must be getting close to NAV, certainly wouldn't buy at this price.
Posted at 27/3/2024 09:57 by smithie6
...even with the jump due to winding up Western Selection which removes it's discount to NAV
The LFI share price is only around 50p

While some of us sold at the same price in ~2007
& since then the price needs to have perhaps doubled to keep up with inflation, although the divis add up, but less than inflation.

Not had a good record.

Congrats to long suffering shareholders in LFI & Western Selection.

But !

... personally I was phps lucky with my timing & decisions to have sold my LFI shares at the peak of the spike in ~2007, at 50-55p.....& that money has since at least doubled being invested elsewhere & produced income. The reward part of risk/reward at that moment was non-existant so it was time to sell.

LFI shareholders have not done well since that 2007 peak. 16 years later & the share price is ~10% lower.

I guess that LFI shareholders might be hoping that LFI copies Western Selection & winds itself up. If that were to happen the return per share would be notably higher. But if LFI doesn't wind itself up, you might pay 48p now & phps see the share price still at 48p in 10 or 15 years time !

I managed to double the value of my portfolio from 1 Jan 2020 to now

whereas the LFI share price (& I assume the NAV) is down ~10%.

Sometimes it feels like they are asleep.
