Realisation of investment in Bourn Bioscience Limited
The Company is pleased to announce the sale of its investment in Bourn Bioscience Limited ("Bourn") on 29 December 2020 to Triangle Health Care Partners 1 LP, a Canadian Fund. The Company has received £1.50 million in cash from the sale, contributing to a realised gain over cost over the life of the investment of £0.72 million, being the equivalent of 0.86 pence per share.
Cash proceeds have been received over the life of the investment of £1.85 million, against an original cost of £1.13 million. This represents a return for the Company of 1.6 times the original investment cost and an IRR of 8.5% in the nearly seven years that this investment was held.
In isolation, the impact of this sale on the Company's latest announced NAV per share of 72.31 pence as at 30 September 2020, would be an increase of 1.33 pence per share. The Company emphasises that the increase in NAV per share from this realisation is in isolation from other changes in the Company's balance sheet, including valuation and other transaction movements in the Company's investment portfolio, that may also have affected the NAV per share since 30 September 2020.
