The breadth and depth of Imperial Innovations’ PLC (LON:IVO) investment portfolio was showcased at its Capital Markets Day, with a focus on six companies. Investor focus is keenly on Circassia’s impending CAT-SPIRE Phase III results, anticipated this quarter. Circassia represented c 22% of portfolio NAV at end-HY16, hence this binary event will affect near-term portfolio NAV. Nevertheless, with portfolio momentum gathering and a number of material near-term milestones drawing nearer, the potential for valuation creation beyond Circassia is becoming more visible.
