Has QIF share price discount to NAV disappeared for good? QIF NAV as at last Thursday 26.11.15 close (end of Qatar trading week) was $1.3224The current QIF share price is $1.27 sell and $1.3075 buyGiven the above, QIF share price is currently trading at a mid-price discount of only 2% to its NAV and has a buy price of not far off parity - a significant change in recent weeks. If QIF share price was trading at its trailing 12 months 14% discount to NAV, today's current share price would be c. $1.13-$1.14; a big difference to today's actual mid share price of $1.29So what is happening?Since inception, QIF has consistently traded at a discount of between 10% - 15% despite an enormous share buyback policy running into many millions and, for the last 4 years, making tender offers for its shareholders to sell back to the Company; 20%, 10%, 10% and 14% respectively annually.The question raised is; why has the QIF 14% share price discount to NAV virtually totally disappeared in the last few weeks since the last tender offer when, in the previous 3 years the tender offers had zero effect on the share price?Being an investment fund, QIF is different to a 'normal' company trading shares. If a mainstream company buys back its own shares, its share price should increase because its assets (in theory) remain unchanged but, its number of shares have decreased thereby giving each share a higher stake in the company's assets. However, in the case of an investment fund making a tender offer, in the same terms such as that of QIF's, the share price should in theory remain unaltered. Why? Because as well as giving shareholders 14% (in QIF's case) of their money back (to be valued at c. 2% discount NAV at 02.12.15 close), which incidentally was fully prescribed, it is also simultaneously selling the same amount (14%) of its assets (investments mainly listed on the QSE) to fund the tender. So 14% returned to shareholders and 14% reduction in assets should result in zero effect on share price. The above paragraph brings me back to my initial question - why has the QIF 14% share price discount to NAV virtually totally disappeared in the last few weeks?Will the share price suddenly drop back to its historic 10%-15% discount to NAV or, has the QIF share price now adjusted long term to reflect par value (or even premium?) with its NAV? I fear the former, but hope for the latter. At present extreme caution is recommended before buying QIF shares at the present price of $1.3075 which is almost at par to the current estimated NAV of $1.32 at QSE close today.As ever, all the above is my own opinion, it is important everyone does their own research.
Re: Beauforts Security I doubled my holding yesterday having unloaded it at 366.55 towards the of end October.
JP Morgan have increased their holding by over two percentage points; They obviously have faith in the company.JP Morgan now hold 7.36%.WR
Changes in Qatar SE from 01.12.15 An important aspect to note is that; 2 shares in which QIF had investments at 30.09.2015, Qatar Gas Transport Company Nakilat (QGTS) (4.1% of NAV) & Gulf International Services (GISS) (4.9% of NAV) have changed status in the Qatar Index. These changes could materially change the value of each of the companies involved and, as such, have an effect on QIF's NAV depending on what action the QIF's Investment Adviser has taken preceding this event. See below....MSCI announced the result of the periodical review. For the Companies listed at QSE The outcome of the review is as follows:Addition(s) to the MSCI Qatar Index: Qatar Gas Transport Company Nakilat (QGTS)Deletion(s) from the MSCI Qatar Index: Gulf International Services (GISS)The changes to the MSCI Qatar index became effective on : the close of November 30, 2015
Re: RNS No more RNS on shares changing hands and trading volumes have dropped today (so far); slightly up overall.Guess we will have to wait now to see if ZOX can get promises for at least the extra $5 million needed (c. 5% of the Korea plant value) at a Placement Price which we can expect to be significantly discounted from the 6.675p closing price on 24/11, the day before the placement warning notice.Zinc price looks to be improving gradually from the $1500 a tonne low, but still volatile and a long way adrift from the $2000 to $2400 longer term expectations. I like the possibility that up to 50% of the zinc oxide can be processed into a zinc product worth double the money, especially since the plant break-even point would be nearer $1300 than £1600. But that's an opportunity for the future, out of reach right now.
Re: Sub 100p? John, could not agree more, but this business has had more new management than most since it floated and not one has made any progress. A similar uplift would be more than welcome and the man on the street might get some of his money back!
Here we go - dividend time! This should change things! Up we go! Patience isn't just a card game . . .
Zac mir Tiped today ?
Decline In 6 months a 50% decline in the share price - not a word from the management since the 16th September.
