Mobeus Income & Growth 4 VCT plc ("MIG4 VCT" or the "Company")

Realisation of investment in Gro-Group Holdings Limited

05 January 2018

The Company is pleased to announce the sale of the entire issued share capital of Gro-Group Holdings Limited to a trade purchaser for consideration of £22 million, on a debt free and cash free basis.  £2.76 million has been received in cash by the Company following completion, while up to £0.09 million in deferred consideration is potentially payable over approximately the next 12 months.

The realisation of this investment has resulted in an increase in the Company's Net Asset Value ('NAV') of an estimated 1.55 pence per share over the latest announced NAV per share of 87.68 pence at 30 September 2017.  

Upon completion and excluding deferred consideration, this transaction delivered the Company a realised gain over cost of £1.18 million, being 1.76 pence per share.

All four Mobeus advised VCTs realised their investment in Gro-Group Holdings Limited.  Excluding deferred consideration, total cash proceeds received by the four Mobeus advised VCTs over the life of their investment in Gro-Group Holdings Limited are £15.6 million, against an original investment of £7.1 million. This represents a return of 2.2 times the original cost and an IRR of over 20% for each VCT in the 4 years and 9 months that this investment was held.
