hi ghia,
note that the aims of the fund are expressed in terms of the NAV,
not in terms of the share price per se. (or at least, the performance
fee for the management team is based on NAV, not share price.)
- so although sp way more than 10% over launch, NAV is not.
"Performance fee
Woodford Investment Management will receive a performance fee equal to 15% of any excess returns over a 10% hurdle rate per annum, subject to a high watermark. The performance fee will be calculated on the following basis:
PF=((A−B)×C)×15%
Where:
PF is the performance fee
A is the adjusted NAV per share
B is the higher of
(i) the high watermark NAV per share
(ii) the hurdle
C is the time weighted average number of shares in issue
If A−B is a negative number, it shall be taken to equal zero.
The performance fee will be paid in newly-issued shares save for an amount payable in cash to contribute towards associated tax liabilities."
