Forecasts exceeded in FY23, strong start to FY24

In FY23, Tatton (once again) grew much faster than peers. AUM was up 12% y-o-y excluding acquisitions (peer group median: 0%) to £12.7bn on 31 Mar 23 (31 Mar 22: £11.3bn). Assets Under Influence (AUI) reached £13.8bn (including 8AM Global: 50% stake acquired in Aug 22). In just over two months post year-end, AUI has grown another 3% to £14.3bn.

The bulk of growth in FY23 came from exceptionally strong net flows of +£1.8bn (FY22: +£1.3bn); 16% of opening AUM (FY22: 14%) compared to a peer group median of 4% (FY22: 6%). Tatton’s ability to attract and retain assets has been far above peers for some time now. It has clearly designed, and is delivering, an outstanding proposition to clients.

Tatton has exceeded our previous revenue and profitability forecasts for FY23 and we think its differentiated offering within a market sweet-spot (on-platform Model Portfolio Services growth rate: c25% p.a.) will fuel continued strong growth. We increase our FY24 forecasts: revenue from £35.0m to £35.9m; adjusted operating profit from £17.9m to £18.2m. Our fundamental valuation rises from 560p to 580p.
