HydrogenOne Capital Growth - Update from QuotedData
23rd April 2024
Momentum building despite discount
While the share price performance of HydrogenOne Capital Growth (HGEN) remains frustrating, investors should be buoyed by the ongoing growth of the portfolio and the accelerating development of the green hydrogen sector.
Despite challenging macro-economic conditions (including stubborn inflation and still elevated interest rates), HGEN's net asset value (NAV) grew 5.8% over 2023, while the portfolio generated aggregate revenue growth of 125%. This momentum reflects the rapidly accelerating demand for green hydrogen products and services, with many of HGEN's companies investing heavily to increase productive capacity to cope with growing backlogs. Industry dynamics also remain supportive as investment flows into the sector while government funding programmes provide further support.
Given the growing confidence of those within the sector and the ongoing fundamental performance of its companies, it is difficult to see how such a wide discount to NAV has opened up. We believe this is more a symptom of negative market sentiment, and as economic conditions steadily improve it is possible that we will see a significant re-rating of HGEN's shares.
