Bionomics - PTSD programme on track for results in Q3

The fiscal year 2018, which ended in June, was a major transition for Bionomics as it realigned itself to focus on disorders of the central nervous system. This strategy hinges on the companyâ€™s lead asset BNC210, a negative allosteric modulator of the Î±7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which has a potentially novel anxiolytic mechanism of action. The drug is in Phase IIb for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (with a readout expected in this quarter) and Phase IIa for agitation in the elderly.

Norcros - Sale of Johnson Tiles UK agreed

Norcros’s disposal of Johnson Tiles is the latest strategic activity taken by management to better allocate capital to fit with priorities. Last year it closed its UK adhesives operation. Norcros has a compelling investment case, where its new product development initiatives, market positioning and self-help initiatives allow it to take market share in both the UK and South Africa. Its rating is low at 6.0x FY24e P/E, which is attractive, especially when compared to its yield of 5.4% on its well-covered dividend. We retain our estimates and value the shares at 246p, implying c 30% upside.

Henderson Far East Income - Repositioning to raise total returns

Henderson Far East Income (HFEL) has consistently delivered on its objective to provide a rising dividend. However, like many investors, HFEL’s managers overestimated the potential for a post-pandemic rebound in China. The trust’s resultant overweight to Chinese consumer and other cyclicals led to a fall in portfolio revenues and underperformance in the financial year ended 31 August 2023 (FY23). With a view to improving future returns, HFEL’s board has since indicated an increased willingness to use reserves when necessary to support dividend payments, which it did in FY23. This reduces the r...
