During the year ended 31 December 2024, the company reported a NAV Total Return per share of 69.9p, up by 6.6% compared to the previous year. This increase was driven by a series of investments and exits. Four new investments costing £8.4 million and six follow-on investments costing £6.0 million were made during the year. The company also fully exited its investments in Specac International Limited, Callen-Lenz Associates Limited, So-Sure Limited, and Crosstown Dough Ltd, realizing gains of £28.5 million and returning proceeds of £34.3 million to the company.
The value of the investment portfolio rose by £9.7 million during the year. The company paid special dividends totalling 12.1p per share, returning £32.1 million to shareholders. Additionally, an interim dividend of 3.3p per share was paid on 12 July 2024, returning £8.8 million to shareholders.
The extension of the offer comes amidst recent exits and provides investors with more time to consider participating in the subscription. The company has been active in its investment strategy, focusing on growing its portfolio and generating returns for shareholders.
