For the six months to 30th June 2016

 

Chairman's Statement

 

In the six months to 30th June 2016, the net asset value (NAV) of your fund fell 9.5% to 57p. The FTSE AIM Allshare Index declined by 4.2% over the same period.

 

The fund went ex-dividend to the amount of 1.75p per share in June which falls within the accounting period under review. If we add that back to the NAV, the decline moderates to a fall of 7.1%.

 

The period started well, however in June we had the shock result of the BREXIT referendum which caused sharp falls across most indices, with the AIM All Share Index being one. Your fund was not immune to these falls as we reported a NAV of 62.56p as at the end of May 2016, but by the end of June this had fallen to 57.04p, as stated earlier. The Markets have since absorbed the outcome of the referendum and have staged encouraging gains and your funds NAV has now recovered to 59.2p as at 19th August 2016.

 

We continue to expect volatility within the smaller companies sector as we await confirmation of the timetable of our withdrawal from the E.U., although we are currently seeing some attractively priced fund raisings starting to appear.

 

We made six further VCT qualifying investments in the period, Immupharma, Photonstar LED Group, Yu Group, Scancell Holdings, Medaphor Group and Imaginatik plc.

 

We top sliced or exited 6 qualifying holdings and 3 non-qualifying.

 

We are cautiously optimistic for the second half of the year.
