Report

Edison Investment Research

- Differentiated income and growth

The Law Debenture Corporation (LWDB) is differentiated by being both an investment trust with a diversified portfolio of global equities and a leading provider of independent professional services through its IPS subsidiaries. The bottom-up managed portfolio is globally diversified with a strong bias towards UK equities. IPS is highly profitable, regularly providing revenue earnings well ahead of its share of NAV, supporting a strong track record of dividend growth and allowing greater flexibility within the portfolio to pursue high-return but lower yield investments. LWDB is benchmarked against the FTSE All-Share index, which it has outperformed over one, three, five and 10 years. Ongoing charges are competitive and the 2.8% yield is one of the highest in the sector.

The Law Debenture Corporation - One plus one equals three

FY23 results for The Law Debenture Corporation (LWDB) show this well-proven, rare combination of a UK investment trust and the cash-generative professional services operating business (IPS) continuing to generate strong results. Performance was ahead of the broad UK equity market benchmark, within which IPS growth was just above the upper end of its mid- to high-single digit growth target and DPS was increased by 4.9%. The results build on LWDB’s long-term record of outperformance versus the benchmark and peers and above average DPS growth.

AAC Clyde Space - Solid start to the year with further order growth

AAC Clyde Space offers exposure to the fast-growing low Earth orbit space market. A solid start to the year and continued order momentum are encouraging. We also note the internal restructuring to promote delivery of the group’s products and services. We expect this combination to drive an improving performance, albeit within the lumpy nature of the business, in turn improving investor confidence and the stock’s valuation.
