Signs of rental growth

MedicX Fund’s (MXF, MedicX) H117 results show a higher level of investment than we had assumed, with Irish acquisitions funded from equity issuance at a substantial premium to NAV. This, together with continued yield compression, has increased EPRA NAV to 74.4p per share, above our forecasts, while slightly diluting EPRA EPS, and therefore reducing dividend cover. The dividend has been increased and MXF expects to pay 6p in respect of 2017, equating to a yield of 6.7% on the current share price, supported by highly secure, long-term income derived mainly from government sources.

Basilea Pharmaceutica - Cresemba milestone payments continue to roll in

Basilea Pharmaceutica has announced the triggering of a US$1.25m milestone payment from Pfizer, triggered by sustained strong sales of Cresemba in the Asia-Pacific region and China.

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.
