Payment of Interim Dividend and Allotment of Shares
The Company announces that on 21 September 2020 it paid a second
interim dividend of 1.5 pence per ordinary share for the year
ending 31 December 2020 to shareholders on the register of members
of the Company as at the record date of 21 August 2020 ("Interim
Dividend").
The Company further announces that on 21 September 2020 it
issued and allotted 922,890 ordinary shares of 10 pence each
pursuant to its dividend re-investment scheme ("DRIS") at a price
of 44.56 pence per ordinary share to shareholders of the Company
who elected to receive ordinary shares instead of the Interim
Dividend. The subscription price of 44.56 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 48.4
pence per ordinary share as at 30 June 2020 (adjusted for the
Interim Dividend of 1.5 pence per ordinary share paid today) less 5
per cent. As a result 21 per cent o f the Interim 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 161
ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company bringing their
aggregate total holding to 85,282 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 Financial Conduct Authority and
to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed
securities, and dealings are expected to commence on or around 5
October 2020.
Following such issue and allotment the Company's issued share
capital consists of 130,296,674 ordinary shares of 10 pence each
with voting rights ("Voting Capital") and 11,035,854 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.
