22 Mar 2023 14:41

RNS Number : 9048T
JPMorgan Global Core Real Assets Ld
22 March 2023
 

The following replaces the 'Quarterly Net Asset Value And Portfolio Update' announcement released on 22 March 2023 at 7.00am under RNS No 7817T.

 

The changes made are solely related to the share price returns and net asset value returns quoted in the first paragraph. All other aspects remain unchanged.

 

The full amended text is shown below.

 

LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT

 

JPMORGAN GLOBAL CORE REAL ASSETS LIMITED

 

QUARTERLY NET ASSET VALUE AND PORTFOLIO UPDATE

 

 

Legal Entity Identifier: 549300D8JHZTH6GI8F97

 

JPMorgan Global Core Real Assets Limited ("JARA" or the "Company") announces an unaudited Net Asset Value ("NAV") as at 28th February 2023 of 102.16 pence per share. During the quarter to 28th February 2023 the Company paid a dividend of 1.05 pence per share on 24th February 2023, bringing the NAV total return for the quarter to +0.3% and +11.8% for the year, while the total share price return for the year to 28th February 2023 was +7.0%.

 

An analysis of the components to this NAV and the relevant dates for their valuation is provided below:

Across both public and private allocations, and measured in local currency, JARA's real estate exposure contributed -0.81% whilst infrastructure and transportation contributed +0.14%. This again, shows stable, resilient returns during a period which was volatile for many private assets. This was driven by JARA's diversification across different real asset types and geographies, in both equity and debt. The US dollar delivered a drag to performance over the Company's quarter to 28th February 2023 due to its decline versus sterling*. This was offset by the positive currency moves seen in the private strategies during their latest quarterly cycle (quarter end dates given in the table above).

* The GBP/USD exchange rate was 1.21065 as at 28th February 2023.

 

Dividends

 

The most recent quarterly dividend of 1.05 pence per share was paid to shareholders on 24th February 2023. This brings the total dividends for the year to 28th February 2023 to 4.05 pence per share which represents a current annualised yield of 4.67%*, and 4.05% on issue price. The Board continues to expect the yield to be within the target range of 4 - 6% on issue price, as set out in the Company's IPO prospectus.

 

* Based on JARA's closing share price as at 28th February 2023.

 

Issued Share Capital

 

As at 28th February 2023, there were 219,407,952 shares in issue.

 

Portfolio Construction

 

As at 28th February 2023, the Company's portfolio was valued at £221.5 million and is fully invested.

Discount Rates

 

The blended average discount rate is 7.9%. The asset level discount rate will vary by strategy, with real estate, including debt currently having a blended rate of 7.5% and Infrastructure and Transport being 9.2%. The increase in the real estate discount rate has been driven by the inclusion of the debt allocation in this number. The blended average discount rate at the portfolio level has increased over the last couple of quarters reflecting the higher rate environment the Company now operates in.

Development Profile

 

· Each underlying strategy has the capacity to engage in a small degree of development with the private asset portfolio having less than 3% exposure to development assets. This small allocation allows the Manager, where appropriate, to capitalise on areas where construction is a more effective way to gain access to assets or sectors due to the rich pricing in the secondary market. Currently the development allocation is mainly focused on areas such as residential housing and energy transportation.

 

We would expect construction exposure across JARA's portfolio to remain relatively low on an aggregate basis.
