Interim Results
Marechale Capital plc today announces its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 31 October 2018.
Chairman's Statement
I report poor operating results for the first half which are broadly in line with the same period last year: revenues of £136,000 (2017: £125,000); and an operating loss of £(251,000) (2017 £(279,000)). The Company's net loss of £(184,000) (2017: £(460,000)) is after taking into account a gain of £67,000 on the realisation of one investment and in 2017, making a provision against the fair value of options held in investee companies of £119,000 and a provision for project loss in an associate of £63,000. Whilst our current deal flow remains strong, a number of the transactions we are involved in are taking longer to complete.
Marechale Capital is highly selective about the management teams, as well as the companies, it advises and backs with its investor relationships. On a more positive note this long-term strategy has resulted in 2018 being the Company's best year for exits with 5 multiple investor return exits and one write-off. Successful exits include the Sheen Falls Lodge, West Country Renewables and Inn Collection and more details on these, and the other transactions, can be found on our website.
The Board of Marechale Capital continues to consider its options and its future strategy.
