Fund Performance
Cadence Capital Limited returned a positive gross performance of 2.7% in April outperforming the All Ordinaries Accumulation Index by 0.3% for the month. CDM has delivered strong performance in the 2026 financial year, up 24.9% for the past 10 months, outperforming the All Ordinaries Accumulation Index by 20.9%.
April’s top contributors included Predictive Discovery, Samsung Electronics, Liontown, Kingsgate Consolidated and Zip Co. The largest detractors were Lindian Resources, EQ Resources and West African Resources.
Predictive Discovery finalised its merger with Robex Resources on 15 April, targeting +400koz per annum of gold production by 2029. The March 2026 quarter marked a significant operational step change with production up 308% to 48koz. Supported by a 13% increase in the gold price received, Predictive generated US$139m of operating cash flow. Gold production is set to improve further as the Kiniero mine ramps up towards full capacity in the June quarter.
Liontown Resources is a lithium producer in Western Australia. Liontown transitioned from losing money on its operations in the December 2025 quarter to delivering its strongest financial quarter since production commenced with $55 million in operating cash flow. A strong operational performance and a more than 100% improvement in the lithium price were the key drivers. Current market prices indicate continued momentum into the June 2026 quarter and FY26 guidance was maintained.
June 2026 Investor Presentations
CDM is pleased to invite you to attend a briefing with the Cadence Investment Team who will be discussing the changing investment landscape. Over the past five years, higher interest rates, elevated inflation and slowing economic growth have increased the risk of stagflation. At the same time, a record US$40 trillion of U.S. government debt is refinancing from yields of around 1.25% to 4.25%, while many developed‑world governments continue to run large budget deficits. The trend of ever‑expanding valuation multiples has stalled — and for good reason. Join us for a discussion on where investment opportunities exist in this new environment. Tea, coffee and light refreshments will be available after the presentations.

2026 Fully Franked Interim Dividend
On 30 April the Company paid its fully franked interim dividend of 3.0 cents per share. This interim dividend equated to a 7.5% fully franked yield or a 10.6% gross yield (grossed up for franking credits) based on the share price on the date of the announcement of $0.805 per share.
After paying this 3.0c fully franked interim dividend, CDM has 25 cents per share of profits reserve to pay future dividends. This amount is more than 4 years’ worth of dividends based on this interim dividend.
Historic CDM Dividend Yields
CDM’s franked and gross yields were approximately 3 times higher than those of the All Ordinaries Index for 2025.
CDM has paid $1.457 in dividends ($2.059 including franking) since its inception.
