- Argo Investments estimated pre-tax NTA at AUD 10.89 per share on October 16, 2026.

Argo Investments (AU000000ARG4) estimated pre-tax net tangible asset backing at AUD 10.89 per share for October 16, 2026, while its ASX share price stood at AUD 9.09. The weekly update gives investors a fresh comparison between the value of the portfolio and the market price.
According to Listcorp, the October 16 NTA estimate was AUD 10.89 per share, compared with AUD 10.76 on October 9. The share price was AUD 9.09 against AUD 9.14 one week earlier. The NTA figures were unaudited estimates, so the comparison is an indicator of portfolio backing rather than a finalized valuation.
Income remains the central theme
Argo's dividend policy provides the clearest income angle. The Motley Fool Australia reported on September 22, 2026, that Argo intended to pay four fully franked dividends of AUD 0.10 per share in fiscal year 2027, compared with AUD 0.385 per share for fiscal year 2026.
The same report said fiscal year 2026 profit reached AUD 260.2 million, up from AUD 259.8 million in fiscal year 2025. That AUD 0.4 million increase was modest, but the planned payment schedule changes the timing of income rather than relying only on annual distribution headlines.
What does the AUD 10.89 NTA mean?
The October 16 figures put the estimated NTA AUD 1.80 above the share price. That spread makes asset backing the most concrete valuation reference in the latest update, while the weekly decline in the share price from AUD 9.14 to AUD 9.09 shows that market pricing did not follow the rise in estimated NTA from AUD 10.76 to AUD 10.89.
Three dated company developments
On September 22, 2026, Argo outlined four AUD 0.10 quarterly dividends for fiscal year 2027, according to The Motley Fool Australia. On October 8, 2026, the publication highlighted a fiscal year 2026 annual dividend of AUD 0.385 per share and a management expense ratio of 0.14 percent in a separate review at The Motley Fool Australia. On October 16, 2026, Argo published the AUD 10.89 NTA estimate and AUD 9.09 share price in its weekly update.
Next date is October 21
Argo's annual general meeting is scheduled for October 21, 2026. Zonebourse reported on September 24, 2026, that independent director Liz Lewin was due to retire at the close of that meeting. The next quarterly dividend schedule begins in January 2027, with further payments planned for April, July and October 2027.
Asset backing sets the reference point
