Maven Income and Growth VCT 4 PLC
Net Asset Value and Interim Dividend
The Directors of Maven Income and Growth VCT 4 PLC (the Company) confirm that the unaudited net asset value (NAV) of the Company as at 30 June 2021 was 73.81p per Ordinary Share, which compares to 72.71p as at 31 March 2021. This represents an increase of 4.38% over the quarter to 30 June 2021, after taking account of the payment of the 2020 final dividend of 2.00p per share on 21 May 2021.
As Shareholders will be aware from recent Annual and Interim Reports, decisions on distributions take into consideration a number of factors, including the availability of surplus revenue, the realisation of capital gains, the adequacy of distributable reserves and the VCT qualifying level. These factors are all kept under close and regular review by the Board and the Manager, who recognise the importance of tax-free distributions to Shareholders.
The Board is pleased to declare that an increased interim dividend in respect of the year ending 31 December 2021, of 2.00p per Ordinary Share, will be paid on 1 October 2021 to Shareholders on the register at close of business on 3 September 2021. Since the Company's launch, and after receipt of this latest dividend, 82.60p per share will have been distributed in tax-free dividends. It should be noted that the effect of paying a dividend is to reduce the NAV of the Company by the total cost of the distribution.
