Molten Ventures has recently completed the exits from Perkbox, Endomag and Graphcore. This translates into more than £70m realisation proceeds, which means Molten is on track to reach the £100m that management expects for FY25. As a result, Molten has announced a £10m buyback programme (starting on 26 July), in line with its recently updated capital allocation policy of earmarking at least 10% of realisation proceeds for share repurchases. Molten has also agreed a new £180m debt facility that re

Today's announcement from JIM reflects a year which saw challenges both in underlying terms and in relation to the ongoing Section 166 process. Trading volumes have remained under pressure against a choppy economic backdrop. Voluntary requirement (VREQ) restrictions placed on “Model B” clients have led to a reduction in client numbers in this category, although numbers have remained stable since the Q3 completion of assessments. The company did benefit from rising interest rates, a significant p

Triple Point Social Housing (SOHO) reported solid H123 results. With borrowing costs fixed, growth in indexed rental income partly offset the impact of credit loss provisions against its two unperforming tenants. Progress is being made in resolving these issues, and as there is no read-across to the wider portfolio, we forecast full dividend cover through FY24. Meanwhile, with the demand for specialised supported housing remaining strong, SOHO has entered a partnership with one of the leading pr

This morning, the group has reported full year results to 31 December 2023, illustrating the challenging market backdrop.
