Argo Investments posts latest NTA update showing asset backing above share price

Argo Investments Limited ( (AU:ARG) ) has shared an announcement.

Argo Investments has released its latest weekly estimate of pre-tax net tangible asset backing per share, reporting an unaudited, approximate pre-tax NTA of $10.63 as at Friday 20 February 2026, alongside a share price of $9.06 at the close of trading.

The disclosure, authorised by the company secretary, reinforces Argo’s emphasis on transparency and may influence investors assessing the attractiveness of its shares versus the reported asset backing in the context of broader equity market conditions.
