Wilson HTM back in the black
Diversified publicly listed financial services company Wilson HTM has joined a number of other companies in returning to growth in the first quarter of the new financial year.
The company reported to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) today that its unaudited after-tax profit for the three months ended 30 September was $3.3 million, compared to $2.2 million for the full 2009 financial year.
The announcement said that group funds under management had grown by 27 per cent to $8.1 billion during the quarter, with $0.7 billion in inflows achieved across Pinnacle funds and $0.1 billion in inflows into Wilson HTM managed accounts.
It said that Pinnacle funds under management now stood at $5.9 billion and Wilson HTM at $2.2 billion.
Commenting on the results, the company said it was encouraged by the general improvement in market conditions and client alpha, however he said there was still insufficient data to provide full-year profit guidance.
