Company summary

Seraphim Space Investment Trust is a specialist investment company focused on privately owned and listed space-technology businesses. It backs companies involved in satellites, communications, earth observation, data and other space infrastructure.

02

Key activities

Growth-capital investment in space-technology companies, follow-on funding, portfolio development and selective realisations or public-market exits.

03

Key markets

Global commercial space and defence-related technology, with a strong concentration in the US, UK and Europe.

04

Key drivers

Portfolio funding rounds, commercial adoption of space technology, defence demand, successful exits and IPOs, private-company valuations and the trust's discount to NAV.

05

Key risks

Early-stage company failures, funding requirements, illiquid private investments, valuation uncertainty, technology risk, concentrated holdings and discount volatility.

06

Recent Developments

4 August 2026: the Q3 update showed portfolio value rising 30.7% in the quarter to £433.3m and NAV increasing 24.8% to £421.3m. Defence spending and sovereign demand for satellite capability are important tailwinds, while funding strength and potential exits from the maturing portfolio should remain key themes into 2027.

07

Dividend notes

Seraphim is a capital-growth investment trust and does not currently pay a regular dividend. Returns depend principally on increases in portfolio value, successful funding events and eventual realisations.
