The Claim
The Company, alongside the other interested parties in the Claim, has entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the former directors of an insolvent UK company (the "Defendants"). The Claim was consensually settled pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, with no admission of liability or any wrongdoing by any party to the Settlement Agreement.
The Claim was settled for a gross amount of GBP15.0m of which GBP4.7m is payable in cash to Manolete. This crystallises a realised gain for Manolete of GBP4.1m representing a 17.4x Money Multiple and a Return on Investment of 1,640%.
Manolete will first receive its total costs of approximately GBP250k as a first priority payment from the settlement proceeds. Of the remaining settlement proceeds of GBP14.75m, Manolete will receive 55% of the first GBP750k; 45% of the next GBP750k; 35% of the next GBP3.5m; and 25% of the remaining GBP9.75m.
To allow the Defendants time to liquidate and generate assets, the GBP15.0m settlement proceeds will be paid in instalments as follows: GBP160k within four months, a further GBP1.0m within 18 months, a further GBP1.2m 18 months later and then seven annual payments of approximately GBP1.8m per annum.
The Claim was purchased by Manolete during its financial year ended 31 March 2018. As at 31 March 2020, the end of the Company's last financial year, Manolete had estimated the fair value of the Claim based on assumed settlement proceeds of GBP5.5m and a resultant fair value unrealised gain of GBP2.0m (please refer to case number 1 on page 16 of Manolete's "Results for the Year Ended 31 March 2020": https://investors.manolete-partners.com/results-reports/results-centre dated 3 July 2020. That document provides an analysis of the fair values underlying 17 of the larger 35 cases within the Company's portfolio of 152 ongoing cases UK insolvency claims).
The largest creditor in the insolvent estate relating to the Claim is HMRC. Manolete understands that creditors are expected to receive a significant payment of approximately GBP10.0m.
Steven Cooklin, CEO of Manolete, commented: "We are very pleased with the latest period of current trading and the significant outcome on one of our larger claims. Not only for our shareholders but also for the large return it generates for the creditors, particularly HMRC, which is the largest creditor in that insolvent company estate by far. This case serves to highlight the excellent returns our business model generates for all stakeholders, as well as the strong Ethical, Social and Governance principles that guide the way we operate.
That case settled at GBP15m and so was materially higher than our conservative estimated fair value which was based on a settlement sum of GBP5.5m. As at the year ended 31 March 2020, our team was managing 35 larger UK insolvency claims with headline values in the range of GBP1m to GBP40m, reflecting the marked increase in the average size of cases we have invested in, particularly since our IPO in December 2018. While litigation outcomes and returns are never simple to estimate, this result again highlights our conservative and measured approach to valuing unrealised gains".
