Portfolio and NAV Update
Crown Place VCT PLC (the “Company”) is pleased to report that a company within its portfolio is undergoing an external fundraising process. There is no certainty that this will complete, or complete on the basis of the proposed terms.
However, the Manager’s view of the current effect of this event, on the valuation of that portfolio interest and its impact on the Company's net asset value (“NAV”), as at today’s date, is an unaudited uplift of 1.72 pence per share (5.41%) to the most recently announced 31 December 2022 unaudited NAV. Therefore, the effective unaudited NAV of the Company is now 33.51 pence per share. This revised unaudited NAV only reflects an adjustment in respect of the portfolio interest referred to above, and does not reflect a revaluation of the entire portfolio.
The Company expects to publish its Half-yearly Financial Report for the six months to 31 December 2022 in March 2023.
A further update will be made in due course, if required, otherwise further information will be included in the Interim Management Statement for the period to 31 March 2023, at which point the entire portfolio will have been revalued to take account of recent events. This is expected to be announced in May 2023.
