How shares, value and ownership percentage are calculated

INOVIS uses a NAV-per-share model. Contributions buy units of ownership at the applicable price; they are not kept as a fixed Kina balance.

Home / Shareholder / Share calculation

1. The three calculations

Net Asset Value (NAV) is the value of fund assets less recognised liabilities. The share price and each member's position follow from that figure.

NAV per shareNet Asset Value ÷ shares in issue
Shares purchasedApproved contribution ÷ NAV per share
Ownership percentageMember shares ÷ shares in issue × 100

A new fund with no shares uses the configured founding price of K1.00. Once shares exist, the recorded NAV-per-share calculation applies.

2. Founding example

This simplified example ignores fees, timing differences and rounding. Three members each contribute K3,000 at a K1.00 founding price.

MemberContributionPriceShares issuedOwnership
Member AK3,000K1.003,00033.33%
Member BK3,000K1.003,00033.33%
Member CK3,000K1.003,00033.33%
TotalK9,000—9,000100%

3. If the fund's net assets grow

Assume net assets later reach K18,000 while 9,000 shares remain in issue:

NAV per share = K18,000 ÷ 9,000 = K2.00
Each original member still holds 3,000 shares, now valued at K6,000 in this example.

Growth is not assured. If net assets had fallen to K7,200, the same calculation would produce a K0.80 share price.

4. A new member joins at the current price

Mark contributes K3,000 when NAV per share is K2.00. He receives 1,500 shares. After recording the contribution, total net assets are K21,000 and 10,500 shares are in issue; ignoring transaction costs, the price remains K2.00.

MemberSharesValue at K2.00Ownership after contribution
Member A3,000K6,00028.57%
Member B3,000K6,00028.57%
Member C3,000K6,00028.57%
Mark1,500K3,00014.29%
Total10,500K21,000100%

Percentage is not the same as value. The original members' percentages fall because a new owner joins, but each still has 3,000 shares valued at K6,000. Correctly pricing the new contribution prevents value dilution in this simplified example.

5. What the real calculation must account for

  • The effective valuation date and approved contribution date.
  • Recognised assets, impaired loans, cash, expenses and liabilities.
  • Share-quantity and currency rounding rules.
  • Any pending issue, cancellation, transfer or repurchase of shares.
  • An auditable NAV snapshot and share-ledger entry for each movement.

Important: NAV is an accounting valuation, not a promise that every share can be redeemed immediately at that amount. Withdrawals remain subject to the Fund Policy, liabilities, approvals and available liquidity.
