Diversified financial company Pinnacle Investment Management Group Limited (ASX:PNI) announced today (9 December 2022) that it is expecting its net share of performance fees, after-tax payable by affiliates on this revenue, to be potentially lower than AU$1 million, compared to the performance fee of AU$6.4 million during the previous corresponding period (ended on 31 December 2021).
Meanwhile, Pinnacle’s shares were spotted trading 4.337% lower on ASX at AU$8.380 per share at 1:36 PM AEDT today (9 December 2022).
Pinnacle also added that the estimation of the performance fee was followed by a thorough review of affiliate investment performance relative to benchmarks and high-water mark levels as of 30 November 2022 for the potential strategies that will deliver performance feels during the first half of every year.
Although several performance-fee-driving strategies of the company have outperformed their benchmarks, however, they have failed to earn performance fees as they entered the period behind the relevant high-water marks. Furthermore, Pinnacle said that style-related performance below the benchmark could not drive performance fee earnings in the given period.
As a result, the company expects to earn higher performance-fee in the second half as it believes that other strategies will be able to earn performance fees over the full 12 months period.
