Edison issues update on Tetragon Financial Group (TFG)

Tetragon Financial Group (TFG) reported a 2.8% NAV total return for H117, with positive contributions made by all asset classes in the portfolio. Although below the target 10-15% range, annualised return on equity for the half year of 7.2% was ahead of the 6.3% achieved in 2016. Tetragon's share price total return was 7.4% for the six months to end-June 2017, with the discount narrowing by 2.1pp to 36.4% over the period. Dividends continue their steady progression, with the Q217 dividend increased by 4.5% from Q216 to US$0.1750 per share, and Tetragon's 5.3% dividend yield ranks as the second highest in the Flexible Investment sector.

Tetragon's share price discount to NAV has steadily contracted since February 2016. The current 36.2% discount is narrower than its 39.5% five-year average but is wider than its five-year low of 20.4%, leaving significant scope for the narrowing trend to continue. Tetragon's 5.3% dividend yield ranks as second highest in its Flexible Investment sector peer group, significantly ahead of the 2.2% average.
