Share Buy-Back Programme Update
As previously announced, the Company initiated a Share Buy-back programme (the "Programme") on 11 June 2024, permitting purchases up to a 15% discount to diluted Net Asset Value, (this threshold was subsequently upwardly revised to a 10% discount to diluted Net Asset Value with effect from 2 August 2024), with a £1m budget allocation.
Under the Programme to date 156,702 shares have been purchased, at an average price of £5.32, with £164,733 of the original £1m budget remaining. The Board considers that Programme has been successful, allowing the Company to purchase small yet consistent parcels of Shares where available in a NAV accretive way. Accordingly, in order to continue this endeavour, the Board has agreed to add a further £1m to the Programme, bringing the ongoing Share Buy-back budget allocation balance to £1.16m.
All other terms of the Programme remain unchanged. |

i think Mr Marsh must be like a kid in a sweetshop with the contents of their mams purse at present. |
another small investment announced, won't make much dent in the cash pile. |
looks as though certain managers at Pantheon wished to cash in parts or all of their holdings before the budget to escape any rise in CGT, hope they haven't left the company. am told that the 32% already held by BPM was valued at just over 32m in the half year report and now another 5% has been bought for 12.5m- does that mean the whole could now be valued at 92.5m or is there loan stock or complications involved in the previous valuation? |
they're piling up heaps of cash, one hopes they redeploy it successfully, record suggests they ought to, only blots have been south African investment years ago and ?singapore investment. |
