Q: Hello 5i,
What could be the purpose of scheduling an “investor day” on november 20th, with AIF in an official strategic review process? Note that this is only the 2nd time (to my knowledge) that AIF is doing such a “investor day” during the past 10 years (the other was in 2021). According to you, does it decrease your estimation of the probability of a sale of the whole company? The stock did not move today on this announcement. Thank you

5i Research Answer:
We would say it decreases the chances of any deal quite substantially. The day is likely to outline its 'new' strategy after its strategic review.
