RE:RE:BROMPTON reports DGS unit nav @ $15.40 to Feb 1Hey MM and Inglewood,
Brompton is valuing the preferred shares at $10.10 ($10 nominal value plus $0.10 accrued dividends to date) and the capital shares at a value of $5.30 as of yesterday's close. So the total unit value of $15.40 accounted for the ex-dividend status of the capital shares.
Only declared dividends are subtracted from the NAV on the ex-dividend date, so while capital share dividends are subtracted every month, preferred dividends are only subtracted once a quarter.
