"Sandon Capital Activist Fund generated a +1.7% net return in September 2026, led by strong performance in COG Financial Services and BCI Minerals."
Sandon Capital seeks to deliver capital growth and distributions by investing in undervalued opportunities where active engagement in corporate governance, capital management, and operations can catalyze value realization. For September 2026, the Sandon Capital Activist Fund delivered a net return of +1.7% net of fees, bringing annualized net returns since inception in September 2009 to 9.5% per annum. Monthly performance was primarily driven by positive share price appreciation in top holdings COG Financial Services, which rose 22%, and BCI Minerals, supported by market digestion of full-year earnings and executive briefings. These positive contributions were partially offset by share price softness in Fleetwood and Karoon Energy, the latter suffering from an equipment failure in a newly installed submersible pump at its Bauna field. The fund remains fully invested with net exposure of 100% and approximately 0% cash across 21 long positions and one short position. Portfolio concentration remains high, with the top five holdings representing 72% of total capital. Sandon also established a new 5.5% position in packaging provider Orora Ltd, initiating active governance dialogue with the board ahead of its annual general meeting.
