Miscalculation of Net Asset Value
The Company has identified that, since the interim dividend ex date on 25 May 2017, the interim dividend of 2.92 pence per Ordinary Share has not been accrued in the Net Asset Value as it should have been and the Net Asset Value per Ordinary Share has therefore been misstated.
This has now been corrected and as at close of business on 5 June 2017 the Net Asset Value per Ordinary Share was:
Net Asset Value per Ordinary Share |
excluding current year income |
443.63p |
|
including current year income |
443.78p |
Issue of New Shares
Based on the revised Net Asset Value per Ordinary Share as at 30 May 2017 the issue price of the New Shares issued under the Initial Placing and Offers (being a 2 per cent. premium to the Net Asset Value per Ordinary Share as at 30 May 2017) as announced on 31 May 2017 should have been 448.51 pence per New Share (the original issue price was calculated at 451.49 pence). The Company is therefore arranging for additional New Shares to be issued to investors who received New Shares in the Initial Placing and Offers in order to reflect this. Application has therefore been made for 8,435 New Shares to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed securities ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in such New Shares will commence on 9 June 2017.
Following Admission the Company expects to have 32,531,416 Ordinary Shares in issue. The total number of voting rights of the Company will be 32,531,416 and this figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Transparency Rules.
