L1 Long Short Fund (ISIN AU0000002339) published its quarterly report for September 2026 on October 18, 2026, giving investors a fresh update on the listed long-short strategy. The report is identified by Listcorp as a quarterly report from L1 Long Short Fund Limited.
What changed in September?
The September reporting period is the key reference point for the new filing. It follows a period in which the fund continued to operate as a long-short portfolio focused mainly on Australian and New Zealand equities, with global positions permitted, according to Thesis Tracker.
The independent profile lists L1 Long Short Fund Limited as ASX:LSF, with a 1.44 percent annual management fee and an inception date of April 24, 2018. Those details frame the September report as an operating update for a listed investment company rather than a conventional operating business.
How the fund is positioned
L1 Capital describes the strategy as an absolute-return fund built around diversified long and short positions and fundamental bottom-up research. Its stated objective is a net return of at least 10.00 percent per year, measured on average over five to seven years, with downside protection relative to the stock market, according to the manager's investment page.
A separate September 25, 2026 report from The Motley Fool Australia said the fiscal 2026 annual payout rose 14.50 percent to AUD 0.146 per share. That dividend figure provides a second lens on the fund alongside the September quarterly report.
