Portfolio Unrealised Net Gains
The portfolio net unrealised gains of GBP0.6 million and GBP0.3 million of accrued interest income, excluding foreign exchange movements, are summarised below:
Quoted Investments
The Company ' s quoted investment valuations decreased by a net GBP0.1 million during the first quarter of 2022, reflecting underlying market price decreases.
Unquoted Investments
The Company ' s unquoted investments include our direct holdings in Dacian Petroleum, Medhost and Elateral, assets managed by San Francisco Equity Partners (ICU Eyewear and YesTo), and a convertible debt instrument with IDE Group Holdings.
Total unquoted investment unrealised gains were nil during the first quarter as a GBP0.1 million gain in Medhost was offset by a GBP0.1 million loss in Elateral.
Dacian Petroleum had GBP0.3 million in investment accrued interest income during the first quarter.
Funds
The Company ' s fund investments include its holding in Brockton Capital Fund I, Opus Capital Venture Partners, Weber Capital Partners and five other smaller fund interests.
Fund unrealised net gains were GBP0.7 million. The principal movements were:
-- Opus Capital Venture Partners - Unrealised gain of GBP1.1 million, driven by a significant uplift in the fund manager's valuation of one of the Fund's two principal remaining investments;
-- Brockton Capital Fund 1 - Unrealised gain of GBP0.4 million, reflecting the unwinding of the discount rate as the investment is valued on a discounted cash flow basis;
-- Eden - Unrealised loss of GBP0.4 million;
-- Weber Capital Partners - unrealised loss of GBP0.3 million due to the performance in the U.S. microcap equities held in the fund; and
-- Other unrealised losses on funds of GBP0.1 million.
The carrying value of the funds is based on the latest available information from the respective fund managers, generally the 31 December 2021 fund valuation reports except for Weber Capital Partners , which is based on 31 March 2022 valuations.
Portfolio Realisations
There were fund distributions of GBP0.1 million during the first quarter.
Liquidity and Outlook
The Company continues to maintain significant cash balances, GBP19.5 million at 31 March 2022. The Board is reviewing a number of opportunities with its real estate team, as well as further investment opportunities, but continues to take a c autious stance in the way the company's resources are deployed.
