The Board notes the announcement by Marwyn Acquisition Company III Limited ("MAC III") that MAC III has repurchased 5 million A shares and matching warrants to subscribe for ordinary shares of MAC III for an aggregate consideration of £5 million (the "Consideration") from Marwyn Value Investors LP and MVI II Holdings I LP, each being a fund managed by the Manager. Of the Consideration, approximately £25 thousand is attributable to the Company's 2021 realisation shares.

 

Due to the legal and registrar costs associated with a capital return, the Company does not believe it is in the 2021 realisation shareholders' best interests to return this capital at this time and accordingly, this will be held by the Company to be paid together with future distributions.

 

Notes

1Inception to date shareholder total return is calculated based on the ordinary share performance up to the date the ordinary shares were converted to 2021 realisation shares on 30 November 2021, then movement in total shareholder value, including all distributions made to 2021 realisation shareholders from that date.

2Shareholder total return from creation of class is calculated as the movement in total shareholder value, including all distributions made to 2021 realisation shareholders since the creation of the 2021 realisation shares on 30 November 2021.

3Portfolio investments are held at fair value in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). Quoted investments with sufficient volume and frequency of trading to constitute an 'active market' under IFRS are held at their listed price on the valuation date. Unquoted investments, and quoted investments where there is no active market, are valued in accordance with International Private Equity and Venture Capital guidelines on a quarterly basis or whenever there is a material change in the investment which would indicate a significant change in valuation.

4The investment in Le Chameau is held through Silvercloud Holdings Limited ("Silvercloud"), with the value allocated to Le Chameau being the value attributable to each share class of Marwyn Value Investors L.P.'s holding in Silvercloud.

 

Shares in the Company are not designed or intended for retail investors. Marwyn Investment Management LLP, the Manager, does not promote shares in the Company to retail investors and they should not be offered to retail investors.
