Portfolio Commentary
The HM1 portfolio was down 5.7% for the month of
November, underperforming the MSCI World
Accumulation Index (AUD), which gained 0.11%.
The portfolio return included the impact of writing
down the value of Corporate Travel Management
(CTD). HM1 has a holding of 1,251,663 shares in CTD
which has been suspended from trade since 22 August
2025. In the absence of an observable market price,
we have adopted a very conservative position of
carrying the holding at zero. HM1 expects the holding to
realise value over time but will adopt this valuation
approach in the absence of a traded market. Should
CTD ultimately recommence trading at the same price
it had at the time of its trading halt, it would have a
positive impact on pre-tax NTA of 9 cents per share.
November was a challenging month for the portfolio. In
addition to the CTD write down, seven of the stocks
were down between 11-17%. These were MercadoLibre,
Guzman y Gomez, Block, Nvidia, Morimatsu
International, Cameco and Didi Global.
Since inception, HM1 has delivered an annualised pre-
tax investment return of 11.21% p.a. As at 30 November,
the current annualised dividend yield is 5.59%, fully
franked.
On Friday 14 November, we celebrated the 10th Annual
Sohn Hearts & Minds Conference in Sydney. You can
access a full recap of the conference here, including
key takeaways and the stocks pitched on the day. The
presentations delivered a fascinating mix of
perspectives and opportunities, and we are pleased to
share our new portal giving shareholders direct access
to watch the stock pitches. You can sign up to view the
videos via our Investor Hub here.
These high conviction ideas have been added to the
HM1 portfolio and we are excited to see how they
perform over the coming year.
