Sandon Capital Investments Limited ( (AU:SNC) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Sandon Capital Investments Limited reported a 0.3% gross portfolio return for December 2025, underperforming the All Ordinaries Accumulation Index’s 1.3%, but maintaining outperformance over one- and since-inception periods. The month was marked by limited news flow given the Australian summer lull, with positive contributions from Fleetwood, Spectra Systems and Coventry Group tempered by weaker performances from COG Financial Services and QPM Energy, while key portfolio names advanced strategically: QPM completed a $30 million oversubscribed placement and signed a term sheet for a $40 million convertible note to help fund its Isaac Power Station, BCI Minerals secured all major approvals for its dredging program and moved closer to first salt exports, and Seven West Media shareholders approved its acquisition by Southern Cross Media, a deal Sandon continues to view as a ‘diworsification’ despite Southern Cross’s recent balance sheet repair. The LIC closed the month with gross assets of $169.4 million, a 6.0% annualised fully franked dividend yield, and gearing of 20% loan-to-assets, with the manager signalling expectations of another quiet month in January before activity resumes with the December-half reporting season in mid-February.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:SNC) stock is a Hold with a A$0.98 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Sandon Capital Investments Limited stock, see the AU:SNC Stock Forecast page.
