SMALL-CAP - WINNERS

Pantheon Infrastructure PLC, down 0.1% at 91.7 pence, 12-month range 73.4p-95p. Updates in relation to its investment in Calpine Corp, noting that Constellation Energy Corp has agreed to acquire Calpine. Baltimore, Maryland-based electricity firm Constellation said on Friday that it will acquire Houston, Texas-based Calpine, which specialises in energy production from low-emission natural gas, in a cash and stock transaction valued at around $16.4 billion based on Constellation’s 20-day volume-weighted average share price of $237.98 at that time. Pantheon says completion ‘remains subject to various regulatory clearances and approvals, which are expected to occur within 12 months’. Assuming the valuation is reflected in Pantheon’s net asset value, it expects an approximate 3p per share increase to its NAV. Pantheon says it invested about $54 million, or £46 million in Calpine as part of a direct secondary transaction with Energy Capital Partners announced in June 2022.

Schroder European Real Estate Investment Trust PLC, down 1.2% at 59.9p, 12-month range 59.9p-73p. The European growth city-focused real estate investor says its direct investment portfolio was independently valued at €194.6 million as of the fourth quarter’s end on December 31, 0.9% lower on a like-for-like basis compared to the end of the third quarter.

Schroder European’s industrial portfolio is up 2.2%, by €1.6 million, ‘driven by positive investment sentiment translating into stronger investment volumes and yield compression’. Office portfolio valuations declined 2.4%, by €1.9 million. Says however that its industrial portfolio offset declines in other sectors.
