Thanks Ken, but my question is really as to how much of a proxy this can be considered to be for tech in general and the NAS in particular - two related aspects, which I've just tended to assume are at least significant parts of the POLR recovery story.

Bit more of an AuM split than there used to be.

Biotech,EM, health and global insurance provide a good slug of Polar.

Tech still is a key component and until sentiment swings to ‘risk-on’; growth assets, I think Polar’s share price will tread water along. Still pays a good divi, and is asset light, so less to contend with in terms of inflationary etc aside from wages.

I like the investments held by Polar Capital Technology (PCT) but is it worth buying that separately or is the value included here in POLR ? The big dividends are paid out by this one too...
Most of AuM are in Technology funds here, right ?

POLR announcement yesterday contrasts with premier miton's lacklustre announcement today

Polar’s final quarter of FY23 (to 31 Mar 23) was a strong one, with AUM up by £0.75bn (+4%) to £19.2bn, driven mostly by an investment performance contribution of +£1.2bn (+6% of opening AUM). Net flows of -£410m were recorded but these were almost all down to profit taking from the Global Insurance fund (-£373m) which has delivered significant outperformance.

Year-end AUM has exceeded our previous forecast of £18.3bn. While the Q4 uptick in AUM doesn’t have a big impact on our FY23 financial forecasts, it does bump up our FY24 forecasts and our fundamental valuation increases to 625p, 36% above the current share price. Polar’s PER of 9.1 is also 40% below the 15.2 median of a UK-listed asset manager peer group.

Equity Developments make a good investment case for POLR, my second purchase in the last 2 weeks as it looks like the headwind has shifted around. 10% yield on share price of 460p well covered by cash.

zho as Asset Managers go POLR is one of my preferred ones, a steady performer, lots of Director buying too. Sold out of Jupiter on results morning. As far as MNG is concerned as has been posted on the MNG thread, not sure whether the rise was in line with Jupiter or for reasons of bid speculation. I read The Times articile. Either way I was pleased with the share price improvement.

"Core profit margin still over 30% in brutal markets" (new research report)

Link to full report and audio summary: https://www.equitydevelopment.co.uk/research/core-profit-margin-still-over-30-in-brutal-markets

AUM fell 15% in H1-23, from £22.1bn on 1 Apr 22 to £18.8bn on 30 Sep 22. Unsurprisingly, given the widespread sell-off in equities, investment performance accounted for -£2.1bn of the fall, with net outflows of -£0.8bn, and the closure of the Phaeacian funds in the US -£0.5bn.

Despite gloomy markets, there are multiple positive signals and signs of management confidence:
- Positive net inflows were recorded in multiple funds, including Global Insurance, Biotechnology, Healthcare Blue Chip, Smart Energy, European ex-UK Income, Emerging Market Stars, Forager and Global Absolute Return, and net outflows from open-ended Technology funds have slowed.
- Polar has reported a strong pipeline of investor interest in multiple strategies, and that the short list of new potential investment teams is larger than for many years.
- The board has declared an interim dividend of 14.0p per share, unchanged from H1-22 (if the total full-year dividend is maintained at 46p, that would be a yield of 9.7% at today’s share price).
- Directors’ have made over £2.2m of share purchases, in cash, during 2022.

We maintain confidence in the strength of Polar’s strategic positioning, and that it is well positioned to return to growth, despite significant short-term uncertainty. Our fundamental valuation is 600p per share, 27% above the current share price, and we flag that Polar’s PER of 9.3, is undemanding and below a peer group median of 10.0.
