Net asset value
The Board of Octopus Apollo VCT plc announces that as at 31 January 2020 the unaudited NAV of the Company was 45.7 pence per share.
To take account of the Coronavirus outbreak, which has arisen since the 31 January 2020, the Board has reviewed the portfolio at 2 April 2020 in detail and concluded that the current NAV is 42.9 pence per share which will be used for the allotment on 3 April 2020. This NAV change reflects valuation adjustments across the portfolio, which is carried at fair value, resulting from conditions arising from the Coronavirus pandemic, as advised by the Investment Manager and approved by the Board.
