Portfolio Contributors and Detractors in October
The filing states the WAM Microcap investment portfolio decreased in October 2026. Renewable energy and carbon abatement company LGI (ASX:LGI) was identified as a contributor to investment portfolio performance. LGI's share price increased in October following the acquisition of two operational solar farms in Queensland for $22 million — the Chinchilla and Brigalow solar farms — providing a combined export capacity of 42 megawatts and expected to contribute between $2.1 million and $4.0 million in annual EBITDA at current electricity prices. Electrical technologies and digital infrastructure specialist SKS Technologies Group (ASX:SKS) was identified as a detractor during the period.
SKS Technologies Group Share Price Movement
The filing states SKS Technologies Group's share price declined during October following weaker investor sentiment towards data centre-related companies and a substantial sell-down by the company's senior executives. The Jinks family, SKS's founders and senior executives, sold 10 million shares during October, representing approximately 30% of their holding, with the Jinks family retaining around 21% of the company following the transaction. The filing also notes SKS reaffirmed its FY2027 outlook for profit before tax of $60 million. The fully franked full year dividend for FY2026 was disclosed as 10.7 cents per share, with a fully franked dividend yield of 9.7% and a grossed-up dividend yield of 13.9%, based on the 30 October 2026 share price.
