Kingfish 2026 Annual Report
24 June 2026
Kingfish Limited, a NZX-listed investment company managed by Fisher Funds, recorded a net loss of NZD $13.6 million for the full year ended 31 March 2026, driven by investment losses of $18.9m partially offset by dividend and interest income of $10.5m. The gross performance return was -2.1%, underperforming the S&P/NZX 50 benchmark which rose 5.2%, while the total shareholder return was marginally positive at +1.3% due to quarterly dividend distributions. NAV per share declined from $1.35 to $1.20 and the outlook remains cautious given geopolitical risks, Middle East conflict-driven fuel price increases, and AI disruption uncertainty, though management remains confident in the quality of portfolio holdings for the long term. Key points: Total shareholder return was positive at +1.3% for the year, supported by consistent quarterly dividend distributions totalling 10.84 cents per share; Operating expenses were $2.2m lower than the prior year, primarily due to a management fee reduction from 1.25% pa to 0.85% pa, saving $1.9m under the fee rebate formula; Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) maintains strong participation with 38% of shareholders reinvesting dividends at a 3% discount to market price
