The City of London Investment Trust PLC said its unaudited net asset value per share (the value of its assets minus its liabilities, per share) was 560.6p at close of business on October 12, 2026. This figure uses the AIC (Association of Investment Companies) formula and includes current financial year revenue items.

  • Excluding current financial year revenue items, unaudited net asset value per share was 554.5p, or 560.7p with debt valued at fair value.

They are valued using a discount rate based on the redemption yield of the relevant UK Gilt (UK government bond) plus a credit spread taken from ICE BofAML bond indices.

NAV Details

As at close of business on 12 October 2026, the unaudited net asset value per share calculated in accordance with the AIC formula (including current financial year revenue items) was 560.6p and the net asset value per share with debt marked at fair value was 566.8p.

As at close of business on 12 October 2026, the unaudited net asset value per share (excluding current financial year revenue items) was 554.5p and the net asset value per share with debt marked at fair value was 560.7p.

Debt marked at fair value is the Company's estimate of the "fair value" of its senior secured notes. The current estimated fair value of the Company's senior secured notes is based on a discount rate calculated using the redemption yield of the relevant existing UK Gilt plus a credit spread determined by the month-end difference in redemption yields between the  ICE BofAML 5-10 Year A Sterling Non-Gilt Index and the ICE BofAML 5-10 Year UK Gilt Index for the 4.53% senior secured 2029 notes, and the spread between the redemption yield of the ICE BofAML 15+ Year A Sterling Non-Gilt Index and the ICE BofAML 15+ Year UK Gilt Index for the 2.67% senior secured 2046 notes and the 2.94% senior secured 2049 notes. The discount rate is calculated and updated monthly and applied daily to determine the Company's published fair value NAVs. In addition, evidence of issues in the private placement market may be taken into consideration where spreads significantly diverge from those in the public market.
