x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Ok thank you for the clarification. Actually I do not think the debt is hgh for KIT, because the assets in the business are stable enough to support a high debt to asset ratio. Whether a certain level of debt is high depends of course on the underlying asset. I would agree a debt to asset ratio in the 40-50% range is high if the underlying asset was say a cryptocurrency - I am not sure I would be comfortable there using any debt at all. But with KIT' s assets? I know private investors that are leveraging wind farms like those that KIT has at 70%+ debt / asset ratios. KIT is unrated but I remember from a management call that they are basically leveraging KIT to investment grade levels somthing like BBB. That' s perfectly sensible and companies at this rating level never lose access to debt finance whatever the market conditons.  investshare      ( Date: 27-Aug-2025 08:09) Posted: First you did not disagree with the fact that the debt is high, but argue it is ok because it is at asset level. My point is that if the higher level is simply the sum of assets and liabilities of the assets. Thus high debt is high debt, it does not get easier (that is what I mean that the asset carries risks). The only consolation is that the higher level has no obligation to repay for it.

For the avoidance of doubt, the logic behind my comment is that it is easy to refi asset level debt at these gearing levels. The fact they recently refied a perp at the holding company level supports this - the higher up the holding structure the more difficult a refi might be, so if they can refi the perp easily they will have no problem to refi the asset level debt

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	KIT' s biggest problem is that their management fees skyrocketed but they are not delivering when it comes to finding deals. Every year, there' s only a few deals and deal size is a mere 1% of AUM. Not sure what their investment team is doing all day.

Adding the residual current share price of 42c that totals 64c representing a return of 16.5% over 4 years. Not great but could be worse.  Personally my return has been much higher than this because the share has been relatively volatile for a company that is so stable, allowing me to often trade in and out buying low and selling high. There have also been discounted placements which have facilitated this as well. All of which also involves luck. I think I have made about 10% a year compounded on this i.e around 50% up overall during the same period.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	I think you can say eaxctly the same for KIT!    :) Share price tumbled too.  Not sure about better track record. 60% of Utd Hamspshire' s tenats are essentials.. even through Covid, they were there. MrBear12      ( Date: 13-Aug-2025 08:58) Posted: Prophet, because it lost a lot of money at the start and the share price tumbled some 50 per cent, as I wrote some time back. I'm neutral now. But only because of expected interest cuts. However shld interest rates go up again, this spells trouble. Bear generally avoids counters so sensitive to US interest rates. Such counters require in depth knowledge of the local market and good timing to make anything. I'd rather retire happily than worry about markets, so I pick kit with a similar yield. KiTs got a better track record. prophetjul      ( Date: 13-Aug-2025 08:26) Posted: Bear Why are you negative on Utd Hampshire? Dividends of 9%.
