Assuming a constant discount of ~35% 4.26p returned should have dropped the share price by 1.49p. It actually went down by 1.8p. January factsheet suggests we could have around 5p to 6p more to come this year. So we have a pretty slow fading away. In addition to the confusion mentioned above the 'net receipts of capital' from the fact sheet would only total around 50p (asset backed investments)plus about 17p for the 'equity investments' for which there is no return timetable. So some 16p seems to go missing!!!!!! VSL/Victory Park try as they might, seem to keep messing up their communication. One does wonder whether there is something they are trying hide.

".. B Shares of 1 penny each will be issued to all Shareholders on 19 April 2024 by way of a bonus issue at a ratio of 4.26159039 new B shares for each Ordinary Share held at the Record Date of 6:00 p.m. on 18 April 2024. "

So presumably if I were to sell all my VSL shares tomorrow before 6:00pm, I would not be issued with any B shares. Is that correct?

This return is not a dividend so the usual ex-divi date being a day before the record date does not apply.

So yes, 4.26 B shares per Ordinary share.

I think the reason for doing it this way is that because the amount returned is a fixed USD amount and the shares are GBP denominated, you have to wait util the FX is set to know what B share distribution you are going to get.

In the case of SLFR/X, it was a fixed 1p or 3p or whatever, so they could issue a new share on each occasion with that as the nominal value quite simply.

Of course, had VSL said that they would be returning 4pps in the first place, then none of this confusion would have arisen.

A sign of future chaos (to a degree), I sense. I think VSL are making this up as they go along.

Top work Chucko.

Whilst I'd done well on some of the SLFR/X ex dates, I also tried on CRS. Even though the div was nearly 10% of the share price, by the time I'd done the round trip I'd cleared maybe less than a quarter of it and it took best part of a week to trade back in...

I guess it depends on what %age the distribution is vs the share price. On SLFR they were often fairly chunky.

I wondered if the share price would jump on the first sign of a capital repayment but no significant change yet.

I’m scratching my head as to whether to bang this year’s ISA allowance in to it.

Um…

The ongoing share price is a bit of an unknown. As assets turn into cash then the discount should reduce. But if assets are sold at a discount then future value of remaining assets will be seen as doubtful, the discount will increase. Or near term assets are returned at full value, then future asset disposals seen as more secure and the discount will reduce. This is the risk/reward conundrum for holding any share in run down.

The first return will be May (EDIT appx 4.25pps), a month earlier than I expected. And we are clearly being given a steer that we will not have to wait too long before the next one.

Initial Return of Capital through the B Share Scheme

After taking into account the contractually required reduction to the Company's gearing facility as well as preserving liquidity for foreign exchange hedging and working capital requirements, the Board has decided to make an initial distribution to shareholders of $15 million, equivalent to approximately £11.9 million as at the date of release, through the issue and redemption of B Shares. The capital to be returned represents approximately 5.12 per cent. of the Company's Net Asset Value as at 31 January 2024.

Pursuant to the authority received from shareholders at the General Meeting B Shares of 1 penny each will be paid up out of the reserves of the Company and issued to all Shareholders by way of a bonus issue pro-rata to their holding of Ordinary Shares held at the Record Date of 6p.m. on 18 April 2024. The B Shares will be issued on 19 April 2024 and redeemed at 1 penny per B Share. The Redemption Date in respect of this initial return of capital is 25 April 2024. The proceeds from the redemption of the B Shares will be sent to uncertificated Shareholders through CREST or via cheque to certificated Shareholders on or around 10 May 2024.

I suspect that once they announce the plans for the cash return schedule and mechanism the shares will bounce.

My basic calculations imply that the current share price is safely covered thus giving a free ride on the remainder of the portfolio.

6th April I’ll be buying more if the price holds at this level. A nice ISA punt.

I’m well down on the share price but fortunately have a few years of good dividends to offset that capital loss. Overall I’m in profit (just).

I’m sitting tight and hoping for an 80p+ return plus dividends.

These windups can actually turn out quite well.

At the current share price I’m actually a strong buyer.
