Finsbury Growth & Income Trust delivers strong April NAV gain

Finsbury Growth & Income Trust plc (LON:FGT) has announced its Fact Sheet as at 30 April 2026.

Commentary
In April, the NAV was +6.1% on a total return basis and the share price was +5.7% on a total return basis, while the index
was +2.8%.

When the share prices of good companies get too beaten down bargain hunters inevitably emerge. We have no doubt that Intertek’s business is a good one and ourselves took advantage of a period of share price weakness to initiate a holding in late 2024 and through 2025. The subsequent revelation the company has received a bid approach from Private Equity was not such a surprise, given the evident quality and value on offer.
