Polar Capital Holdings (LSE:POLR) announced an 8% increase in its Assets under Management (AuM), climbing from £21.4 billion to £23.2 billion in the quarter ending June 2025. This growth was fueled by positive fund performance and favorable market conditions, despite net outflows and a capital return following a tender offer by the Polar Capital Global Financials Trust. The company saw net inflows into funds such as Artificial Intelligence and Asian Stars, while experiencing outflows from its Technology fund. The successful tender offer marked the beginning of a new five-year term for the Global Financials Trust, which has seen notable net asset value growth over the last five years. Polar Capital remains confident in its long-term outlook, highlighting strong fund capacity and improving relative performance.
Financially, Polar Capital holds a strong position with solid profitability and a healthy balance sheet. However, recent declines in revenue and slower cash flow growth, alongside weak technical signals, indicate some potential headwinds. The stock’s undervaluation combined with an attractive dividend yield offers some offsetting appeal, making it a balanced consideration for investors.
