An update on portfolio companies today - The focus on consumer is a negative but the Asian focus is mitigating factor.

Very undervalued and a proxy on MINT, a SE Asia hotel and leisure group. Not the greatest stock to be in during 2020 but today's RNS saw them raised $300ml at 3.1% so not a basket case either.

I have not come across this before but just had a "heads up" from this article. You may be interested hTTps://citywire.co.uk/funds-insider/news/david-kempton-two-buys-and-a-review-of-the-years-stock-picks/a1303821?ref=citywire-money-latest-news-list

agreed most bizarre. Looks good for income though.

15 months since I had s look and despite the progress on nav, the share price is still languishing.40% plus discount now. It seems very unloved, i am intrigued but don’t really know where to go to get a view on it. Anyone got any ideas/ research?

You are right I didn't take into account of the extraordinary div which brings it up to about 14% The dividend, payable to shareholders and option holders, will be 12.00 cents per share comprised of an ordinary dividend of 2.50 cents per share and an extraordinary dividend of 9.50 cent per share, which amounts to approximately US$14.9 million and US$56.6 million, respectively.

Surely a 12 cent dividend is more than 6%. Share price of 86 cents and a divi of 12 is just over double that quoted by Macolm.

Indeed, i need to take another look at this. R2

Very nice 6% extraordinary div declared

Bought a large chunk today after having a look on Stockopedia

I have owned but price action is all wrong. I was expecting the share buy back to work wonders but it didn't. My conclusion is that if there was a genuine valuation anomaly someone with more on the ground investigative capability than me would have been buying steadily. They haven't. Difficult to deny the reality of the dividends and buybacks though - this isn't like one of the listed china frauds paying the dividend from the float.

Hello All I am having a sniff around SIHL and am wondering what the problem is .... The Bull points are many; Good area to invest in , the right sectors, some decent assets,a good dividend,large discount that is being narrowed,London listing, senior directors etc have skin in the game ,(personnnel, philosophy, team , objectives, board of directors, website etc all look pretty good to me on the face of it). The Bear Points BVI listing, , I don't see much performance.... Any thoughts welcome. It looks good but maybe I am missing something obvious...... Best R2

That's a hefty special dividend. 10 cents

[davebowler] 14/8/2017 09:40

30 June on a fully diluted basis (adjusting for in-the-money vested options), the NAV per share was US$1.2211

Not often one can move posters' relative contributions from 33% to 25%. Expecting a bit of consolidation here before next leg up.

[epistrophy] 16/10/2016 14:24

Shares are very tightly held - look how illiquid this is compared to the market cap. They don't seem to disclose the major shareholders, and it's a BVI company so good luck finding out. That said, at least it's a main market listing not AIM.

[davebowler] 11/10/2016 08:46

At last its getting to a reasonable level.Still at a 40% discount to NAV HTtp://tools.morningstar.co.uk/uk/cefreport/default.aspx?SecurityToken=F00000MEP2]2]0]FCGBR$$ALL
