Literacy Capital plc ("Literacy" or the "Company")
Quarterly NAV Announcement
Net Asset Value
The Company announces that as at 30 September 2021 the unaudited net asset value ("NAV") per ordinary share was 245.3 pence (245.0 pence per ordinary share on a fully diluted basis, taking account of warrants currently in issue to subscribe for ordinary shares).
This represents a 34.0%, or 62.3p per share, uplift since 30 June 2021 when NAV per ordinary share was 183.1p.
The above NAV calculation is based on the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 30 September 2021 of 60,000,000 ordinary shares of £0.001 each. Further, the NAV per ordinary share calculation currently excludes certain deferred tax liabilities shown in the Company's accounts on the basis that those amounts are not expected to become payable in the future should the Company receive approval of its investment trust status. In the event that the Company does not receive such approval, the deferred tax liabilities will need to be taken into account in calculating the NAV per ordinary share going forward.

The Company's factsheet for the three months to 30 September 2021 is now available on the Company's website: www.literacycapital.com/investors
