PCI Pal - Victory in the Court of Appeal, net cash upgrade of +£1.1m

PCI Pal has announced that the Court of Appeal has ruled in its favour in the unfounded patent litigation case brought by Sycurio, and that the Court of Appeal has indicated that it would make an order for £1.1m of funds to be released from escrow to PCI Pal as soon as possible. The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal after just one day of the two day hearing, and upheld the resounding victory in the UK High Court case in September 2023, including invalidating Sycurio’s patents for prior art an

Regional REIT - Q124 DPS unchanged ahead of refinancing

For Q124, Regional REIT (RGL) has maintained the rate of quarterly DPS at 1.2p. We expect DPS for the year will partly depend on RGL’s chosen re-financing route. Meanwhile, RGL’s asset disposal programme continues to progress. Portfolio EPC ratings have continued to show good improvement and, adjusted for disposals, rent roll and occupancy were robust. We have made no changes to our forecasts.

Gresham House Energy Storage Fund - Focused on revenues and project completions

Gresham House Energy Storage Fund (GRID) invests in utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Great Britain. GRID and its peers saw sharp share price falls in H223 and early 2024, due mostly to an unexpected decline in revenues and the slower-than-expected utilisation of BESS by the UK’s Electricity System Operator (see our last note). In response to these events, GRID’s manager, Ben Guest, and its board have refocused the company’s use of capital and are now concentrating on maximi

As previously announced, the ATRs were scheduled for delivery to Avation in Q4 2024/ Q1 2025, and will now be sold on to an airline client, with the aircraft sales expected to be completed on the date of delivery. The aircraft had been ordered through the exercise of purchase r

Target Healthcare REIT - Positive momentum continued in Q3

Target Healthcare REIT’s Q324 update shows a fifth successive quarter of positive NAV total return, with indexed rent reviews driving increased earnings and property values. Tenant profitability continues to strengthen, reflected in a high level of rent cover and rent collection. Dividends are well covered by adjusted earnings and we expect further DPS growth.

Triple Point Social Housing REIT - Strong rent growth and improving rent collection

Triple Point Social Housing REIT’s (SOHO’s) Q124 update confirms a continuing improvement in rent collection. The newly set FY24 DPS target is unchanged compared to FY23 at 5.46p as the board considers the impact of asset sales and transfers. This represents a yield of 9.0%. Strong indexed rental income continues to support income and capital values.

UK Equities: Overlooked, oversold, and over here

In this note we look at the gap between perception and reality in the UK equity market, the opportunities and threats in the economic and market outlook, and the emerging consensus that the valuation discount versus other major markets is at or close to an inflection point. We consider the benefits of UK equity strategies both for income investors and for those seeking exposure to the higher growth potential of smaller and mid-cap companies.

Hardman & Co Healthcare Index: 2023 – Capital demands dent performance

The Hardman & Co Healthcare Index (HHI) has been running since 2009. Its main function is to highlight the attractions of life sciences investments over the long term. For the second year running, apart from global economic influences affecting world markets, performance in 2023 was dented by the capital-intensive nature of the sector. The HHI fell 3.7%, to 483.8, underperforming the main London markets – FTSE 100 (+3.8%) and FTSE All-Share (3.8%) but outperforming the FTSE AIM All-Share Index (

LIBERUM: Harworth: Trading update: On track to deliver on targets

ICG Enterprise Trust - FY’24: portfolio companies performing strongly

The key message from ICGT’s FY’24 results (to January) is the continued strength of the operating companies, which keep delivering mid-teen EBITDA growth. Despite challenging markets, margins have widened, which should help allay some concerns over the impact of the higher-rate environment. Target returns are “broadly unchanged”. FY’24 saw about half the usual investment and realisation activity (and fewer realisations saw less NAV uplift on exit). A degree of volatility is to be expected, and t

UK REITs: Building back better

UK commercial property has been a cornerstone asset for many income-seeking investors (both retail and institutional) in recent decades, particularly since the global financial crisis of 2007/8 and the resulting ultra-low interest rate environment. However, since rates began to rise in 2022 to tackle surging inflation, meaningful returns have once more become available on lower-risk assets such as cash and government bonds, which has led to a retrenchment from alternative income assets such as p
