"The Auscap High Conviction Australian Equities Fund posted a return of negative 0.4% net of fees in August 2026, underperforming the broader market. Despite monthly sector drag from consumer discretionary and real estate holdings, long-term performance remains robust at 13.4% annualized net of fees since inception, with capital deployed across 44 core equity holdings."
Auscap Asset Management seeks long-term capital preservation and growth by investing in high-conviction portfolios of quality Australian companies. For the month of August 2026, the Auscap High Conviction Australian Equities Fund delivered a net performance of negative 0.4% net of fees, trailing the All Ordinaries Accumulation Index benchmark gain of 1.9%. Since inception in December 2012, the fund has generated an annualized net return of 13.4% net of fees. Performance during the monthly period was driven primarily by positive sector contributions from Healthcare, Communication Services, Materials, and Industrials holdings. Key positive single-stock contributors included CSL, Resmed, REA Group, CAR Group, and Reece. Conversely, performance was negatively impacted by exposures in Consumer Discretionary, Real Estate, Financials, and Information Technology, with IDP Education, Life360, HomeCo Daily Needs REIT, Charter Hall Group, Magellan Financial Group, and Nick Scali serving as the most significant individual detractors. The fund closed August positioned with 98% in equities across 44 holdings and 2% in cash.
