> Adjusted underlying profit before tax1 was £11.1m, compared to £12.4m in the prior year;

Final dividend of 2.50p also declared; payment/XD dates not stated (last year final was paid on 18/12).

Happy enough with those results...

Interim Report -

"The Board of Directors have declared a total interim dividend of 3.6 pence per share, of which 0.35 pence is a special dividend and relates to net performance fees. The dividend will be paid on 1 April 2016 to shareholders on the register as at 11 March 2016. The ex-dividend date is 31 March 2016."

NOTE: I am assuming that the ex-div date stated in the rns is incorrect + that the shares will actually go ex-div on 10 March 2016, rather than the day before the dividend is due to be paid!

EDIT - I also note that the both the core interim dividend of 3.25p + the full interim dividend of 3.60p (which includes 0.35p special) are down on the interim payment (3.60p core, 4.60p full incl 1.00p special) made at the same time last year.

Bought some of these today. Looks to be a group of high quality based on P-Solve and River and Mercantile. 6 per cent yield for a growth stock is quite attractive- think the management team are quite entrepreneurial so happy to see how they do on a 5 year view.

Strong Q1 trading update today in view of prevailing difficult market conditions...

Trading Update -

River and Mercantile Group PLC (R&M), the advisory and investment management business today provides a trading update of Assets Under Management (AUM) and Notional Under Management (NUM) for the three months ended 30 September 2015.

Highlights for the three months ended 30 September 2015:
· Fee earning AUM/NUM increased from 30 June 2015 by 2% to £21.5 billion.
· Net inflows were £592 million in the period, with net sales of £152 million and positive rebalancing flows in Derivative Solutions of £440 million.
· In difficult market conditions investment performance reduced AUM by less than 1% (£133 million). Notably, fiduciary management assets fell only 0.3% in the period, demonstrating our ability to defend and protect client assets in volatile markets.

Subsequent to the quarter end R&M has been appointed to a £1bn structured equity options mandate by a large UK defined benefit pension scheme. The mandate was designed and executed throughout October.

Mike Faulkner, CEO of River and Mercantile, said:
'The difficult market conditions have shown the robustness of the business, both in terms of diversification across asset classes and to continue generating positive flows. This follows from our focus on delivering effective, outcome-led solutions to our clients. Our appointment for a large structured equity mandate continues the trend for investors to seek innovative ways to preserve value, while still remaining exposed to risk markets. Furthermore, our new Global High Alpha equity proposition has been reviewed by a range of investors and we expect to see flows in the coming months. We continue to deliver sustained investment returns for our clients and remain strongly positioned for growth.'

I've held these for a few months, i suspect they will move steadily higher over the next year or so as investors begin to appreciate the underlying growth and high yield.

Our position in the more conventional market was reinforced by the successful launch of the River and Mercantile UK Micro Cap Investment Trust, and the investment teams in Fiduciary Management and Equity Solutions continue to deliver outstanding performance.

We are today declaring a second interim dividend and proposing a final dividend for 2015 bringing the total dividends declared and proposed to 13.0 pence per share which represents 80% of the adjusted underlying profit after tax and 100% of the net performance fee profit after tax."

Admission Prospectus -

For the current FY Morningstar have pre-tax £17.00m (2016: £21.50m), EPS 15.63p (2016: 18.77p), DPS 12.10p (2016: 14.58p)

Dividend Policy (from Admission Prospectus)...
The Directors have taken a number of factors into consideration in establishing the Group's dividend policy including, inter alia, the Group's ability to generate a sustained level of net income and free cash flow from operations, current regulatory capital requirements and additional capital for the Group's growth strategy.

The Group's dividend policy is to pay at least 60 per cent of the Group's adjusted profits available for distribution by way of ordinary dividends on a half-yearly basis. In addition, the Group intends to distribute any surplus capital generated over time (primarily from net performance fee earnings), after taking into account regulatory capital requirements at the time and potential strategic opportunities, to Shareholders by way of special dividends.

The Board intends to declare a dividend in respect of the period ended 30 June 2014, payable before 31 December 2014. The first dividend payment will reflect the Group's dividend policy, and minimum payment ratio of 60 per cent, as applied to adjusted profits (to the extent there are adjusted profits) for the period commencing on the date of the Merger and ending 30 June 2014. The dividend policy will be operated in respect of the year ending 30 June 2015.

Whilst the Board considers dividends as the primary method of returning capital to Shareholders, it may execute share repurchases, when advantageous to Shareholders and, where permissible.

The Group may revise its dividend policy from time to time.
