Edison issues update on Seraphim Space Investment Trust (SSIT): Several key holdings funded to break-even

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, April 10, 2024

Seraphim Space Investment Trust (SSIT) reported a modest 1.8% NAV total return (TR) in H124, as the positive impact from up rounds (most notably D-Orbit’s) was partly offset by downward fair value adjustments of some other holdings due to technical setbacks or operational underperformance.

Key Points: 
  • Seraphim Space Investment Trust (SSIT) reported a modest 1.8% NAV total return (TR) in H124, as the positive impact from up rounds (most notably D-Orbit’s) was partly offset by downward fair value adjustments of some other holdings due to technical setbacks or operational underperformance.
  • However, we note that fund-raising across the spacetech sector remained robust in CY23.
  • Excluding the fully funded companies, the remaining portfolio has a fair value weighted average cash runway of 12 months, according to Seraphim Space.
  • Once IPO activity rebounds, this could provide SSIT’s major holdings the opportunity to list (though this seems more likely in CY25 rather than this year).

  • HgT defied the tough private equity exit environment, generating £345.9m of total realisation proceeds excluding carried interest in FY23.
  • Growth was further assisted by high ‘buy-and-build’ activity, which benefited earnings growth and supported returns through a considerable multiples arbitrage.

  • The region has been overlooked by global investors, which has led to very attractive valuations on both absolute and relative terms.
