Return of Capital
The Board expects that the first redemption payment to the Company's shareholders will represent between 15% and 20% of the Company's NAV at the time of calculation and will be made by the end of March 2025*. This remains in line with the estimated quantum and timing outlined in the circular published by the Company on 3 December 2024. A further announcement providing details of the first redemption payment will follow in due course.
* The expected timetable for this redemption should only be taken as an indication and not as a guarantee of the actual timeline for such redemption to be made by the Company. This redemption payment will be calculated on the prevailing net asset value (less expenses and costs of subsequently de-listing and liquidation of the Company) at the time of the redemption.
