MIR - Mirrabooka Investments

Thanks Belli. I can see mine logging into my broker too.

The scale back was much less severe than I expected. I got about 67% of the top up I applied for. Greed is good.

What the...?. That seems way over the 1 for 7 entitlement. How can MIR justify that allocation when it scaled back other - and likely smaller - applicants? Not impressed.
AFI from under 9 million to 15.2 million.

is the top up formula out yet? I suspect the Directors' discretion will include a calculation with recognition of long term holdings.

I agree it appears excessive; as a shareholder since 2005, in the top up, I got all I asked for (but not of that magnitude)

Well, based on 9m that would calculate as approx 1.2m under the 1 for 7 entitlement which means AFI were allocated some 5m from the top-up. That appears excessive to me.

That is way more as a percentage compared with the oversubscribed percentage of 119%

there may have been an ex officio agreement to take up any shortfall. You gave mentioned previous rights issues only attracting minority participation by a minority of shareholders
 
I wonder what AFI's plan is for all these additional shares.

Did they just look at the $3.06 price and decide to grab a bundle that they will start offloading for a profit? If so, it doesn't seem fair that they could do this at such scale.

Or do they want to hold long term? I'm not a fan of LICs holding other LICs. It just seems like compounding of management expenses. Especially in the case of AFI/MIR where the research is already shared.

MIR advised the offer was oversubscribed by 19% and will scale back some shareholders and return application money.

AFI got around 400% more than its 1 for 7 entitlement so where was the shortfall if a scale back was applied? Could have easily filled all other applications and reduced AFI's allotment, especially if those applications came from individual shareholders as opposed to an affiliate company.

For what I understand AFI/DJW/MIR and AMH all have the same executive/investment team and proportionally share those employment costs rather than each employing their own. A much less expensive way to function.
 
Crikey! FWIW
2 cents above its 4 YEAR Moving Average and 4 cents Under its 200 DAY Moving Average is not a Good Investment in My Books

I thought it might be interesting to look at the movement of the MIR share price from the week the rights issue was announced until the end of the week in which the new shares were allotted.

I've compared MIR against the all-ords, AFI and OPH (another fund manager in the mid and small cap area).

It seems the rights issue has been a brake on the MIR share price. To be expected, I suppose.

At least it didn't get pushed down to around the issue price as has happened with some spp's.

hard to get a comparison going with my low tech skills

.. I guess it's bounced along. No increased selling, Fridays NTA of $3.29 just showing a bit of slippage...

MIR have just corrected the Friday NTA down to $3.27.

Would this be the first time the rights issue cash is included?
 
for CY24, some portfolio movements have been noted.
Full EXIT : CPU .. Trimmed : FPH , REH - both now out of the top 20 as per end Sept.
New :
ARX - Aroa Biosurgery .. SDR - Siteminder .. 360 - Life360
Added . IEL - IDP Education .. in top 20..CBO - Cobram Estates
In last year's annual ( FY not CY ) by Sept 24, a few portfolio changes were noted. I'm not sure any gains outweigh losses, (all charts are for 3 years)
CPU >> out completely ... too soon
Screenshot_20250628_102713_CommSec~2.jpg
FPH ... jury is out
Screenshot_20250628_102747_CommSec~2.jpg
REH >> sold down ... superb timing
Screenshot_20250628_101920_CommSec~2.jpg
Life 360 >> add ... strength to strength
