Strong revenue growth emerging

The highlight of FY19 results was an over six-fold increase in gross portfolio income to USD2.24m, as ongoing repositioning of the investment portfolio moved it closer to the point where it will support sustainable dividends. The period was, of course, pre COVID-19, but ADAM does not expect any material impact on portfolio valuations for FY20. Each investment has a strategy in place to actively manage operational exposure and mitigate the pandemic’s impact. Asia’s SMEs, already lacking acc...

Good progress at ADAM's largest investment

ADAM holds an 85% controlling shareholding in Future Metal Holdings (FMH) As at 30 September 2019, that stake represents 45.2% of its portfolio.

Just what the doctor ordered

DocDoc is an innovative business with considerable growth potential plus early mover/competitive advantages. We believe it is disruptive in ways that benefit its key industry stakeholders: patients, medical practitioners and insurers. We recently met DocDoc’s CEO Cole Sirucek to discuss the company’s business model and growth strategy and regard Singapore-based DocDoc as a prime example of the potential of ADAM’s investment template.

It targets above average income and capital growth, with a stated objective to provide shareholders with unique access to a diversified portfolio with access to high-growth Asian economies.

Transition to new strategy on track

ADAM’s FY18 figures do not fully convey the successful efforts of the investment manager in restructuring the inherited portfolio. The latter is now far more coherent than it was 18 months ago, divided between stable, non-strategic assets held for sale and recently made, income-generating investments. Two attractive transactions were completed post the year-end and future reports should consequently reflect a more diversified income-focused investment strategy. Since its appointment as ADAM...
