Torrent Capital Reports Preliminary Q3 2026 Financial Results and Net Asset Value (NAV)

Halifax, Nova Scotia--(October 20, 2026) - Torrent Capital Ltd. (TSXV: TORR) ("Torrent" or the "Company") today announced its preliminary, unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026. The Company reported an estimated Net Asset Value ("NAV") of $28.6 million, or approximately $0.75 per share as at September 30, 2026.
Q3 2026 Preliminary Financial Highlights (Unaudited)
Net Asset Value: $28.6 million or $0.75 per share, compared with $32.5 million or $0.85 per share at December 31, 2025 and $33.1 million or $0.87 per share at June 30, 2026.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: $4.7 million at September 30, 2026, compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2025.
Realized Investment Gains: $4.1 million in net realized gains, equivalent to $0.11 per share.
Torrent completed the disposition of a major investment during the period, contributing to realized gains, while options activity continued to generate incremental cash flow. The decline in NAV during the third quarter primarily reflected lower valuations in technology-related holdings. Investor sentiment remained sensitive to an uncertain macroeconomic outlook, contributing to a weaker environment for growth-oriented investments.
"Rising bond yields, inflation, and oil prices have resulted in a challenging environment for growth equities. Our focus remains on the long term potential of the portfolio, recognizing that valuations can fluctuate over shorter periods," said Wade Dawe, Chief Executive Officer of Torrent Capital Ltd.
NAV per share and all per-share figures are calculated based on common shares outstanding at the applicable reporting dates. The number of common shares outstanding may vary between periods.
