Over the six month period ended 31 January 2024, the net asset value (“NAV”) total return of Fidelity Asian Values PLC was -2.4%, underperforming the Comparative Index, the MSCI All Countries Asia ex Japan Small Cap Index (net) total return (in sterling terms), which was +3.6%. Over the same period, the Company’s share price total return was -2.5%. Whilst the Company's discount was 5.7% at the reporting period end, it widened to around 10% at the end of March, however, it was trading narrower than its peer group.

Our stock selection continued to contribute positively to the Company’s relative performance versus the Comparative Index. However, our market selection was a drag against a backdrop of continued divergence in country performance (see table below on country attribution). Small cap stocks in India rose by 26.7% and those in Taiwan gained by 9.6% during the six month review period. In contrast, small cap stocks in China and Hong Kong fell by 28.2% and 18.4% respectively. Since our investment process can lead us to take contrarian positions in undervalued businesses, our combined exposure to China and Hong Kong was close to its historical high (six month average of 40.6% versus the Index average weight of 13.0%). China and Hong Kong continue to underperform and have dragged down the Company’s relative returns compared to the Index in the period under review. However, stock selection has been positive, and valuations remain attractive.
