Result of Annual General Meeting held on Wednesday 16 September
2020
Henderson Alternative Strategies Trust plc announces that at the
Annual General Meeting held earlier today, all resolutions were
duly passed on a poll.
In addition, the Chairman announced at the Annual General
Meeting that cash now forms 60% of the Company's portfolio (as at
11 September). The Board is giving consideration as to how best to
make an initial return of cash to shareholders and will make a
further announcement on this in the near future. It should be noted
that the investment manager is currently selling the Company's
remaining liquid listed investments and has already made redemption
requests in respect of its holding in funds with redemption rights.
The investment manager expects the Company's cash level to rise to
70-75% by mid October 2020. The remaining portfolio, post the sale
of liquid listed investments, will consist of funds without
redemption rights and illiquid listed funds. These amount, in
aggregate, to c.20% of the current NAV. Your investment manager is
actively exploring liquidity options. There can, however, be no
certainty as to the aggregate realisation proceeds which may be
achieved for this remaining illiquid portfolio, or on the timeframe
necessary to achieve a disposal.
The Board would like to thank the Fund Management team, who have
worked hard to realise the Company's assets in line with the
shareholder vote held at the beginning of July.
