Edison issues review on Tetragon Financial Group (TFG)
Tetragon Financial Group's (Tetragon's) NAV declined 3.5% in
H122 in total return terms, compared to a 20% fall in the MSCI ACWI
Index (based on Refinitiv). The portfolio revaluation contributed
4.1pp to the decline, which was mostly due to a Q122 loss on
Tetragon's direct exposure to a publicly quoted biotech company and
the downward revaluation of Equitix on the back of public multiples
contraction. The best-performing assets in the portfolio were
collateralised loan obligations (CLOs, which also assisted the
valuation of the CLO manager LCM). Tetragon's NAV total return was
also supported by a NAV-accretive share repurchase (+3pp on NAV).
Tetragon's one-year NAV performance to end-June 2022 stands at 10%,
compared to a 15% decrease in the MSCI ACWI (based on
Refinitiv).
At end-June 2022, Tetragon had cash commitments of US$96.5m,
which are fully covered by the undrawn part of its credit facility
(US$150m). The facility has been enlarged recently to US$400m from
US$250m, with the drawn part translating into net gearing at 3.7%
of NAV at end-June 2022. We also note that Tetragon receives
recurring cash inflows from bank loan investments and TFG Asset
Management, with a five-year average of US$115m and US$69m pa,
respectively. Tetragon's average costs excluding incentive fees
stood at US$49m pa over the last five years. In H122, Tetragon used
US$42m for share repurchases close to market price and paid
US$19.2m in dividends and we calculate that the latest dividend per
share (DPS) of US$0.11 (up 10% y-o-y) implies a 4.3% yield,
according to our calculations.
