The fund manager was out with a quarterly update on Monday night showing net inflows of $200m, with an additional ~$100m earnt through performance. This takes the group Funds Under Management (FUM) to $5.5b and only requires an additional $100m in net flows in the fourth quarter to hit the $1b mark for the year. While the numbers were in line with expectations, we were slightly disappointed with the flows given $200m was earmarked earlier in the year for their new Private Credit fund. Despite this, Regal is one of only a handful of Fund Managers experiencing inflows to their products and they will be adding a new alternative Ag fund to their portfolio suite next month to further support flows. They have ~$210m in cash on the balance sheet and are incrementally putting it to work including the acquisition of Asian long/short manager East Point. We continue to see Regal as the premier listed alternative asset manager with the ability to grow FUM both organically and inorganically with its balance sheet.
