I have tried to understand the returns claimed by Spheria Australian Microcap Fund for Fund Investors
According to their website https://spheria.com.au/funds/spheria-australian-microcap-fund/
this fund's returns to Fund Investors (net of applicable fees, costs and taxes.) have been:
25.7 % over last year
17.9% over last 3 years
18.3 % over last 5 years.
Dividends have been in cents per share and approx in % of the Unit costs at the time.
The Funds Unit Costs vs the SEC share price pretty much follow each other with an offset of about $0.40 as can be seen below
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 1 30/06/2023 6.9431 4.63% 2 30/06/2022 22.8124 16.29% 3 30/06/2021 2.758 1.75% 4 30/06/2020 2.5174 2.83% 5 28/06/2019 8.7675 8.27% 6 29/06/2018 13.4203 11.18% 7 30/06/2017 4.226 8 30/06/2016

So I am probably ignorant and need some help in understanding how the 25.7 % returns to Fund Investors over the last year FY is calculated. This 25.7 % is supposed to be net return to investors but the SP and Funds Unit Cost graphs from 30 June 2022 to 30 Jun 2023 are pretty much flat (hovering around $1.90 and $150 respectively). Is there anything else other than Dividends and the increase in the Value of the shares/Units that are returned to Trust Investors?
I am hoping someone who has invested directly in this Fund might know where the figures behind the impressive returns are to found as I cannot.
Direct Fund Investor Returns = Dividends + Unit Cost change for the FY + ??? anything else?
