******
20 October 2022
SME Credit Realisation Fund Limited
(the "Company")
PUBLICATION OF NAV AND RETURN OF CAPITAL
Net Asset Value ("NAV")
At 30 September 2022, the NAV attributable to the shares of SME
Credit Realisation Fund Limited was GBP32.63 million (30 June 2022
: GBP41.66 million). The NAV per Share as at 30 September 2022 was
118.46 pence (30 June 2022: 108.41 pence).
The total NAV return for the period 30 June 2022 to 30 September
2022 was 10.48 %.
The Company has published its quarterly factsheet to the end of
September 2022, containing information about the Company's
financial position, performance and prospects, which is available
at the Company's website at
https://www.smecreditrealisation.com/documents/factsheets .
Return of capital
The Company intends to continue returning surplus cash to
shareholders on a quarterly basis; that is broadly speaking loan
principal and interest receipts, less operating expenses, less any
FX margin reserve maintenance requirements.
Dividend declaration
The Company announces that it has declared a quarterly dividend
of 1.3125 pence per share payable in November 2022. The ex-dividend
date is 3 November 2022 with a record date of 4 November 2022 and a
payment date of 25 November 2022.
Compulsory share redemption
The Company will return approximately GBP9.1 million to
shareholders by way of a compulsory partial redemption of shares
(the "Redemption") at 118.46 pence per share, being the NAV per
share as at 30 September 2022, with payment on 11 November 2022
(the "Redemption Date"). On this basis, approximately 27.88% of
each registered shareholding will be redeemed on 2 November 2022
(the "Redemption Record Date").
As at today's date, the Company has 27,548,645 shares in issue.
The Company holds no shares in treasury.
Fractions of shares will not be redeemed and so the number of
shares to be redeemed for each shareholder will be rounded down to
the nearest whole number of shares.
All shares that are redeemed will be cancelled with effect from
the Redemption Record Date. Accordingly, once redeemed, shares will
be incapable of transfer.
The shares will all be disabled in CREST after close of business
on the Redemption Record Date and the existing ISIN number
GG00BPP4PP19 (the "Old ISIN") will expire.
The new ISIN number GG00BLFGSJ40 (the "New ISIN") in respect of
the remaining shares which have not been redeemed will be enabled
and available for transactions from and including the following
business day, 3 November 2022. The November 2022 dividend payment
will be payable after the Redemption Record Date to shareholders of
the remaining shares with the new ISIN number.
Up to and including the Redemption Record Date, shares will be
traded under the Old ISIN and as such, a purchaser of such shares
would have a market claim for a proportion of the redemption
proceeds. CREST will automatically transform any open transactions
as at the Redemption Record Date into the New ISIN.
