Polar Capital AUM rises 8% in Q1, beats consensus on market gains
Investing.com - Polar Capital Holdings plc (LSE:POLR) on Thursday reported assets under management (AUM) of £23.2 billion for the quarter ending June 30, 2025, representing an 8% quarter-over-quarter increase that was broadly in line with market expectations.
The asset manager’s AUM figure came in 1% above consensus estimates, driven primarily by positive market movements following the broader markets rebound post ’Liberation day,’ which more than offset net outflows during the period.
The company’s AUM also showed a 2% improvement from the £22.6 billion reported during its fiscal year 2025 results announcement on June 20, 2025.
Polar Capital recorded net outflows of £632 million for the quarter, which was better than the consensus estimate of £745 million.
The outflows included a one-off £280 million return of capital to investors via a tender offer to investors in the Polar Capital Global Financials Trust in June 2025.
Polar Capital maintains an optimistic outlook, stating it remains confident that with significant fund capacity and improving relative fund performance, it is well positioned to perform well due to its diverse range of specialist active strategies.
RBC Europe Limited maintains an Outperform rating on the stock with a price target of 560 pence.
