City of London Investment Trust: Net Asset Value(s)

· Issued by City of London Investment Trust PLC via RNS

Summary by 6ix AI

The City of London Investment Trust PLC said its unaudited net asset value (NAV, the value of its assets minus liabilities) per share, including current financial year revenue items, was 549.6p, calculated using the AIC formula, as at close of business on October 2, 2026.

Key details

  • With debt marked at fair value, the NAV per share including current financial year revenue items was 555.8p.
  • Excluding current financial year revenue items, the unaudited NAV per share was 543.6p, or 549.8p with debt marked at fair value.
  • Debt marked at fair value is the company's estimate of the fair value of its senior secured notes: the 4.53% notes due 2029, the 2.67% notes due 2046 and the 2.94% notes due 2049.
  • That fair value uses a discount rate based on the redemption yield (the return if held to repayment) of the relevant UK government bond (gilt), plus a credit spread: the yield gap between ICE BofAML indices of A-rated sterling non-gilt bonds and UK gilts. The rate is updated monthly and applied daily.
  • Evidence from private placement market issues may also be considered where spreads there differ significantly from the public market.

NAV Details

As at close of business on 2 October 2026, the unaudited net asset value per share calculated in accordance with the AIC formula (including current financial year revenue items) was 549.6p and the net asset value per share with debt marked at fair value was 555.8p.

As at close of business on 2 October 2026, the unaudited net asset value per share (excluding current financial year revenue items) was 543.6p and the net asset value per share with debt marked at fair value was 549.8p.

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.
