Payment of Final Dividend and Allotment of Shares
The Company announces that on 10 May 2019 it paid a final
dividend of 1.5 pence per ordinary share for the year ended 31
December 2018 to shareholders on the register of members of the
Company as at the record date of 5 April 2019 ("Final
Dividend").
The Company further announces that on 10 May 2019 it issued and
allotted 855,041 ordinary shares of 10 pence each pursuant to its
dividend re-investment scheme ("DRIS") at a price of 50.83 pence
per ordinary share to shareholders of the Company who elected to
receive ordinary shares instead of the Final Dividend. The
subscription price of 50.83 pence per ordinary share was determined
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the DRIS on the
basis of the last reported net asset value of 55.0 pence per
ordinary share as at 31 March 2019 (adjusted for the Final Dividend
of 1.5 pence per ordinary share paid today) less 5 per cent. As a
result, 22 per cent of the Final Dividend paid by the Company, was
re-invested in ordinary shares in the Company via the DRIS.
Under this allotment the employees and members of the fund
manager, YFM Private Equity Limited, have been allotted 133
ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company bringing their
aggregate total holding to 99,687 ordinary shares.
Application is now being made for the ordinary shares which were
issued and allotted as set out above to be admitted to the premium
segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to
trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed
securities, and dealings are expected to commence on or around 24
May 2019.
Following such issue and allotment the Company's issued share
capital consists of 132,519,730 ordinary shares of 10 pence each
with voting rights ("Voting Capital") and 6,966,757 ordinary shares
of 10 pence each held in treasury.
The above statement of Voting Capital may be used by
shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they
will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's
Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
