This overall gain comprised positive interest income of 0.54 pence per Ordinary Share, net of expenses, and a decrease in portfolio valuations of 0.11 pence per Ordinary Share. A dividend of 1.625 pence per ordinary share was declared during the month and the ex-dividend date was 1st June 2023. Portfolio UpdateAs at 31st May 2023, the Company's invested portfolio had an aggregate valuation of £122 million across 37 investments. The average yield was 9.79%, with a weighted average loan life remaining of circa 1.95 years. Overall, the portfolio is 96% invested in private market assets and 4% in public bonds. The Investment Manager's focus on creating a portfolio of high yielding and short duration loans that do not hold significant exposure to interest rate movements, ensures the portfolio remains well positioned against any further interest rate increases by global central banks. During the reporting month, portfolio company TR Engineering "Trianco" completed a partnership agreement with Sunamp, the leading thermal storage manufacturer in the UK, enabling Trianco's zero carbon home heating products to be sold alongside Sunamp thermal storage products. This strategic partnership is forecasted to materially increase Trianco's sales. A Term Loan B facility of £1m was approved during the month to fund stock requirements resulting from this new partnership agreement. Post period end, a further prepayment of £1.5m was received from investment loan ref #60. Finally, during the month the Board, the Company's Advisors and Investment Manager met with a number of shareholders to review the Company strategy and consider future prospects. This process is ongoing, and progress will be communicated to Shareholders shortly.
