INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

For the quarter ended 30 June 2019

The Income & Growth VCT plc presents an Interim Management Statement for the quarter ended 30 June 2019. The statement also includes relevant financial information between the end of the period and the date of this statement.

NET ASSET VALUE AND TOTAL RETURN PER SHARE

INTERIM DIVIDEND

The Board declared an interim dividend of 1.50 pence per share for the year ending 30 September 2019, comprising 1.00 penny and 0.50 pence from capital. This dividend was paid to shareholders on 12 July 2019 to shareholders on the Register on 14 June 2019 and brings cumulative dividends paid per share to 113.00 pence per share, and also reduces the Company's Net Asset Value by a corresponding amount.

SHARE BUYBACKS

On 5 June 2019, the Company purchased 300,000 of the Company's own ordinary shares at a price of 67.50 pence per share for cancellation.

On 7 June 2019, the Company purchased 236,485 of the Company's own ordinary shares at a price of 70.25 pence for cancellation.

After the period end, with effect from 1 August 2019, the Board changed its share buyback policy objective of maintaining the discount to Net Asset Value at which the Company's shares may trade in the market from approximately 10% or less, to approximately 5% or less. In pursuing this policy, the Board's priority will remain to ensure that it is acting prudently and in the interests of the remaining shareholders of the Company. Share buybacks will continue to be entirely at the Board's discretion and will be subject to the Company having sufficient funds available for such a purpose. They will also continue to be subject to prevailing market conditions, the Listing Rules and any applicable law and regulatory restrictions at the relevant time. Shares bought back in the market will ordinarily be cancelled.
