Clime Capital Limited (ASX:CAM) is a listed Investment company providing exposure to an investment portfolio that includes Australian equities and unlisted assets. Its upcoming AUD 0.005 per-share special dividend is scheduled for 27 November 2026, with 50% franking. The payment approaches alongside a 6 November announcement confirming repayment of a Victorian industrial development loan and continuing valuation work on other unlisted Credit investments.

The November special payment and its timetable

Clime Capital (ASX:CAM) goes ex-dividend on 9 November 2026, with the record date following on 10 November. The payment date is 27 November. These dates identify different stages of the distribution: the entitlement cut-off, the register determination and the scheduled cash payment.

The dividend is described as a special payment in the company’s disclosures. It should therefore be distinguished from a recurring quarterly rate. An eligible holding of 1,000 ordinary shares would produce AUD 5 in cash from this declaration, before any holder-specific tax effects.

The 50% franking level applies to the payment’s franking status, not to a reduction in the AUD 0.005 cash entitlement. A quoted Annual Dividend Yield describes a separate measure and cannot be treated as the percentage paid through this one special dividend.

Industrial loan settlement releases cash to the portfolio

On 6 November 2026, Clime Capital (ASX:CAM) confirmed that the borrower had refinanced a loan associated with a Victorian industrial development. AUD 8.5 million settled into the company’s account, returning capital and additional income to the portfolio.

The outstanding loan had been valued at approximately AUD 7 million at 30 June 2026. The settlement is expected to produce an approximately AUD 0.6 million capital gain, while AUD 0.9 million was received as interest and associated fees. Together, the gain and income amount to approximately AUD 1.5 million to be reflected in FY27 accounts.

The full AUD 8.5 million receipt should not be described as profit. Much of it represents recovery of the investment principal. Separating that principal from the capital gain, interest and fees gives a clearer picture of the effect on the company’s financial position.

Unlisted valuations remain a material follow-up

The refinanced loan formed approximately 18% of the AUD 36.2 million in unlisted asset and unit trust investments that were subject to the FY26 audit qualification. Repayment supplies a realised outcome for that particular exposure, while the valuation work on other investments remains a separate matter.

Clime Capital (ASX:CAM) has appointed independent valuers for the remainder of the unlisted credit book and plans to update shareholders before the end of 2026. That update will provide additional evidence about the carrying values of investments still held.

The repayment announcement does not state that the audit qualification has been removed or that all remaining investments will realise their current carrying values. Clime Capital (ASX:CAM) therefore has two distinct near-term events: the declared November distribution and the expected valuation update. Both matter to assessing the portfolio’s income and asset position.

Key Insights

Clime Capital (ASX:CAM) combines a scheduled, partly franked special dividend with a completed cash realisation from its industrial loan. The Cash Receipt improves portfolio liquidity, but only part represents gain and income. The remaining unlisted credit valuations and the promised year-end update are the principal follow-up disclosures alongside the 27 November dividend payment.
