   Share buy-backs 
 
   During the period from 1 October 2020 to 31 December 2020, the Company 
purchased 150,930 Ordinary shares for GBP158,000 including stamp duty. 
All the shares are to be held in treasury. 
 
   It remains the Board's policy to buy back shares in the market, subject 
to the overall constraint that such purchases are in the Company's 
interest, including the maintenance of sufficient resources for 
investment in existing and new portfolio companies and the continued 
payment of dividends to shareholders. 
 
   It is the Board's intention for such buy-backs to be at around a 5 per 
cent. discount to net asset value, so far as market conditions and 
liquidity permit. 
 
   Material events and transactions after the period end 
 
   Portfolio 
 
   After the period end, the Company had the following material investment 
transactions: 
 
 
   -- Investment of GBP1,360,000 in a new portfolio company, Threadneedle 
      Software Holding Limited (T/A Solidatus), a provider of data lineage 
      software to enterprise customers in regulated sectors, which allows them 
      to rapidly discover, visualise, catalogue and understand how data flows 
      through their systems; and 
 
   -- Investment of GBP864,000 in an existing portfolio company, Healios 
      Limited, a provider of an online platform delivering family centric 
      psychological care primarily to children and adolescents. 
 
 
   There have been no other significant events or transactions that the 
Board is aware of which would have a material impact on the financial 
position of the Company between 1 January 2021 and 15 February 2021.
