AUM up 6% in Q1 of FY23, in line with forecasts

Impax has recorded a strong Q1 of FY23, with AUM growing by £2.3bn (+6.4%), from £35.7bn on 30 Sep 22 to £37.9bn on 31 Dec 22. Market movements, FX and investment performance was responsible for £1.5bn of the increase, while the group continued its impressive record of attracting and retaining client assets, recording £797m of net inflows, up from £606m in the prior quarter.

While market conditions remain uncertain, Impax’s recent net inflow trend does look like an encouraging shift back to a higher level, following a drop-off during the sharpest periods of the 2022 market fall. Impressively, Impax has recorded only one quarter of net outflows (Apr-Jun 2022) since 2015.

We are bullish about the prospects of the sustainable investing market generally, and of Impax specifically, which has been a standout performer compared to other asset managers. With AUM growth on track, we maintain our fundamental valuation of 1,000p (37% above closing price on 6 Jan 2023).
