Trading Update

Publication of Prospectus

Trading Update

The Company is the No 1. performing fund over 1, 3 and 5 years across all UK Investment Company sectors, whether large, income, mid or small, as per The Association of Investment Companies. Cash has been fully deployed, including into the recent new investments Capita Plc and National World Plc. Excellent business updates have been issued by Filtronic Plc and Galliford Try Plc, whilst important business disposals have been completed at both Funding Circle Plc and James Fisher & Sons Plc.



Noel Lamb, Chairman, commented:

"In the last two years Rockwood's NAV has more than doubled and performance has been best in class. Investor demand for this differentiated strategy continues and thus we hope to continue to scale, aided by this Prospectus and deliver for our shareholders. The manager clearly sees lots of opportunity to meet our target returns and has an exciting pipeline of potential investments."

Publication of Prospectus

In accordance with the requirements of the Prospectus Regulation, the Company is prohibited from issuing more than 20 per cent. of its issued share capital during any preceding twelve-month period without the publication of a prospectus. The Company has reached this limit through its most recent tap issuance and is therefore today publishing a prospectus (the "Prospectus") in order to provide the Company the capacity to continue issuing Ordinary Shares under the Prospectus Regulation.



The maximum number of Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the Prospectus is 12,877,954 Ordinary Shares, representing 40 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital at the latest practicable date prior to its publication.

The Directors are also seeking authority, at the Annual General Meeting held today, to issue up to 6,438,976 Ordinary Shares (being an amount equal to 20 per cent. of the total issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the notice) on a non-pre-emptive basis.

The Prospectus will therefore also allow the Company to issue a further 20 per cent. of its current issued share capital (for up to a further 6,438,978 Ordinary Shares) via tap issuances subject to the Company receiving the authority to do so during the life of the Prospectus from its shareholders at a subsequent general meeting.

A copy of the Prospectus will shortly be available on the Company's website at www.rockwoodstrategic.co.uk/key-docs/and has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism of the FCA athxxps://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism

Block Listing Application Update

Further to the announcement on 30 July 2024 stating that the Company had made an application to the Financial Conduct Authority and London Stock Exchange for the block listing of 5,614,210 million Ordinary Shares, the Company confirms that it now expects the block listing will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 5 August 2024 at which point the Company will have capacity to issue a total of 6,438,976 Ordinary Shares under its block listing facility.

Amendment to Investment Management Agreement

The Company also announces that the Board has agreed to a minor amendment to the Investment Management Agreement between the Company and its Investment Manager, Harwood Capital LLP, (the "Agreement"), to clarify the intention regarding the calculation of the cap on the performance fee payable to the Investment Manager as the fund grows in size. The amendment is effective from today.

The Agreement currently states that if at the end of the financial period for which the Company prepares accounts the Company's net asset value ("NAV") exceeds £100 million, the performance fee, when aggregated with the annual investment management fee paid during the period to which the performance fee relates, will not exceed 3.0 per cent. of the Company's NAV. The Agreement has now been corrected to state that the £100 million NAV threshold be calculated by reference to the average NAV over the performance fee period (calculated as the average of each month end NAV) as was stated in the 2022 Prospectus, and Annual Reports for the financial years ended 2023 & 2024. A full summary of the Agreement, as amended, is included in the Prospectus.

The Investment Manager is defined as a related party of the Company under the UK Listing Rules (UKLRs). The amendment to the Agreement constitutes a 'relevant related party transaction' (as defined in the UKLRs) to which the requirements of UKLR 11.5.4 apply. Under UKLR 11.5.4, there is no requirement for shareholders to vote on the amendment to the Agreement. The Board, having been so advised by Singer Capital Markets Advisory LLP (acting in its capacity as the Company's sponsor), considers the amendment to the Agreement to be fair and reasonable as far as the Company's shareholders are concerned. In providing advice to the Directors, Singer Capital Markets Advisory LLP has taken into account the Directors' commercial assessments.

the fund manager extracts far too much imo whenever a performance reward is due

£2.8 million in the yr to March '22.

which imo makes it a barge pole job for investors due to the loss of NAV from this extraction of cash to the fund mngr

...works as an investment only for the fund mngr imo, not for shareholders.

------

NAV has fallen in H1 & the accounts show that they don't give back any of the past perf. payment !!

quite a nice deal to be on, that you just take money out & never have to put it back !
