Corporate Summary

Maven Income and Growth VCT PLC is a venture capital trust (VCT) and its shares are listed on the Premium segment of the Official List and traded on the main market of the London Stock Exchange. It has one class of share and was incorporated on 12 January 2000.

Investment Objective

The Company aims to achieve long term capital appreciation and generate maintainable levels of income for Shareholders.

Continuation Date

The Articles of Association require the Directors to put a proposal for the continuation of the Company, in its then form, to Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2020.

Share Dealing

Shares in the Company can be purchased and sold in the market through a stockbroker. For qualifying investors buying shares on the open market:

• • dividends are free of income tax;
• • no capital gains tax is payable on a disposal of shares;
• • there is no minimum holding period;
• • the value of shares, and income from them, can fall as well as rise;
• • tax regulations and rates of tax may be subject to change;
• • VCTs tend to be invested in smaller, unlisted companies with a higher risk profile; and
• • the market for VCT shares can be illiquid.

The Broker to the Company is Shore Capital Stockbrokers (020 7647 8132).

Recommendation of Non-mainstream Investment Products

The Company currently conducts its affairs so that the shares issued by it can be recommended by authorised financial advisers to ordinary retail investors in accordance with the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in relation to non-mainstream investment products and intends to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

The Company's shares are excluded from the FCA's restrictions which apply to non-mainstream investment products because they are shares in VCTs and the returns to investors are predominantly based on investments in private companies or publicly quoted securities.

Unsolicited Offers for Shares (Boiler Room Scams)

Shareholders in a number of UK registered companies have received unsolicited calls from organisations, usually based overseas or using false UK addresses or phone lines routed abroad, offering to buy shares at prices much higher than their current market values or to sell non-tradable, overpriced, high risk or even nonexistent securities. Whilst the callers may sound credible and professional, Shareholders should be aware that their intentions are often fraudulent and high pressure sales techniques may be applied, often involving a request for an indemnity or a payment to be provided in advance. If you receive such a call, you should exercise caution and, based on advice from the FCA, the following precautions are suggested:

• • obtain the name of the individual or organisation calling;
• • check the FCA register to confirm that the caller is authorised;
• • call back using the details on the FCA Register to verify the caller's identity;
• • discontinue the call if you are in any doubt about the intentions of the caller, or if calls persist; and
• • report any individual or organisation that makes unsolicited calls with an offer to buy or sell shares to the FCA and the City of London Police.

Interim Review

Overview

The continuing objective for your Company is to achieve long term capital appreciation and generate maintainable levels of income for Shareholders, by investing in a diversified portfolio of later-stage private businesses and AIM/ISDX quoted companies with established revenue streams and strong growth potential. During the six month period to 31 August 2015, this strategy has delivered a further increase in NAV total return, to 130.7p per share.

During the reporting period the Maven team has continued to source suitable investment opportunities in profitable businesses across the UK and the asset base now includes 45 private companies, the majority of which are trading in line with plan and paying a regular yield. This revenue is an important component in your Company's ability to sustain an attractive level of tax-free distributions to Shareholders and, consequently, your Board is pleased to declare a maintained interim dividend of 2.4p per share at the half-year.

In June 2015, Maven was named as Private Equity House of the Year at the 2015 M&A Awards, one of the leading events in the corporate finance calendar. This category recognises private equity managers that have displayed the keenest judgement and opportunism in completing acquisitions or exit transactions during the year, including an acknowledgement of their contribution in increasing the value of investee businesses.

Maven was also shortlisted at the 2015 unquote" British Private Equity Awards in the VCT House of the Year category, whilst the 3.8 times cost exit achieved by your Company from EFC Group was nominated for VCT Exit of the Year.

Dividends

The Board has declared an interim dividend of 2.4p per share, comprising 1.1p of revenue and 1.3p of capital, to be paid on 27 November 2015 to Shareholders on the Register at 30 October 2015. Since the Company's launch, and after receipt of the interim dividend, Shareholders will have received 67.1p per share in tax-free dividends. The effect of paying the dividend will be to reduce the NAV of the Company by the total cost of the distribution.

Portfolio Developments

The private equity portfolio has generally performed well, and strong trading results have led to valuation uplifts for a number of companies operating in a range of sectors.

Crawford Scientific, a leading supplier of chromatography products and services, has performed strongly since Maven client's initial investment in August 2014. The business has successfully acquired and integrated its analytical services partner, Hall Analytical Laboratories, which has contributed to a 46% year-on-year increase in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation for the twelve months to August 2015. The management team are confident that they can continue to grow each of Crawford's service and product lines over the coming financial year.

Westway Services Holdings (2014), a provider of technical facility services, has a proven track record of delivering a reliable and quality service to its clients across a variety of planned and reactive maintenance projects. The business enjoys a longstanding relationship with M&S and, in light of recent contract wins, the directors expect revenues in the current financial year to exceed £55 million, compared to £39 million in the prior year.

Maven clients first invested in Just Trays (JT), the UK's leading manufacturer of shower trays and related accessories, in June 2014 and subsequently the business has increased its customer base and extended its product range. The JT brand has received a number of industry awards, including being recognised as Shower Brand of the Year at the inaugural BKU awards in July 2015.

CHS Engineering Services has enjoyed thirty years of steady growth as an independent service provider, delivering benefits to customers by identifying underlying defects in complex processing and manufacturing systems before they impact operations. Following on from the difficulties experienced in 2014, due to the loss of a significant contract, trading has recovered and is forecast to continue to do so.

Highlights

NAV total return of 130.7p per share at 31 August 2015, up from 128.7p at 28 February 2015

NAV at period end of 66.0p per share after payment of the final dividend of 3.5p per share

Five new investments added to the portfolio

Realisation of Steminic for a total return of 3.3 times cost

Exit from Six Degrees Group generating a total return multiple of 2.1 times cost

Interim dividend declared of 2.4p per share (2014: 2.4p)

SPS (EU), the UK's largest provider of promotional merchandise, has experienced excellent growth under private ownership since Maven clients supported the management buy-out in February 2014. In June 2015 SPS completed the self-funded complementary acquisition of High Profile, a manufacturer of bespoke products, increasing the product range and production capability of the business.

A follow-on investment was made in May 2015 to support the expansion strategy of Claven Holdings, which is now the largest provider of field support services to the UK mortgage, insurance and utility sectors. The group has a network of 250 field agents who undertake personal customer visits, using a state-of-the-art case management system, and enable lenders to engage directly with customers to resolve payment arrears.

As well as reflecting good trading performance across the larger and more valuable assets, your Board has also taken the opportunity to apply some prudent minor provisions against a small number of investments within the portfolio. In particular, your Board and the Manager continue to be mindful of the possible effects of the enduring low oil price on those companies in the portfolio that operate in the oil & gas market and believe that the valuations of such companies remain fair and reasonable. Following the profitable sale of Steminic during the reporting period, your Company's exposure to this sector has been reduced.

New Investments

During the period, alongside the provision of funding to support the development of an existing portfolio asset, your Company participated in two new investments in established private companies:

• • Flow UK Holdings, a specialist IT security business based in Hertfordshire that provides flexible networking security solutions to customers throughout the UK and Ireland. The business aims to grow organically, by increasing its sales team, and to add scale through a buy & build strategy; and
• • Cursor Controls, a manufacturer of trackball pointing solutions which are utilised in a number of industrial applications. Based in Nottinghamshire, Cursor is widely recognised as a global market leader, with over 1,200 trackball variants in its product portfolio.

Additionally, your Company invested in three businesses incorporated by Maven in the food producers and processors, telecommunication services and technology sectors.

At the period end, the portfolio stood at 57 unlisted and quoted investments at a total cost of £26.1 million.

Realisations

In June 2015, Steminic (trading as MSIS) was sold to UK private equity house Primary Capital, achieving a 3.3 times total return on cost over the life of the investment. Maven clients first invested in Steminic in 2007 and provided additional funding in subsequent years to facilitate growth, enabling the business to more than double its revenues and increase profitability three fold during the period of investment.

Also in June, funds affiliated with Boston-based private equity firm Charlesbank Capital Partners entered into an agreement to acquire Six Degrees Group; exit proceeds were received during July, achieving a 2.1 times total return over the holding period.

As at the date of this report, the Manager is engaged with several other investee companies and prospective acquirers at various stages of a potential exit process. This realisation activity reflects the increasing maturity of a number of holdings, but it should be noted that there can be no certainty that these discussions will lead to profitable sales.

1 Proceeds exclude yield and redemption premiums received, which are disclosed as revenue for financial reporting purposes.

2 Holding acquired and realised during the period.

The table includes the redemption of loan notes by a number of investee companies.

Two unlisted investments were struck off the Register during the period, resulting in realised losses of £535,000 (cost £535,000). This had no effect on the NAV as a full provision had been made in earlier periods.

Principal Risks and Uncertainties

The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company were set out in full in the Strategic Report contained within the 2015 Annual Report, and are the risks associated with investment in small and medium sized unlisted and AIM/ISDX quoted companies which, by their nature, entail a higher risk and lower liquidity than investments in large quoted companies. The valuation of investee companies may be affected by economic conditions and the credit environment, and other risks include legislation, regulation, adherence to VCT qualifying rules and the effectiveness of the internal controls operated by the Company and the Manager. These risks and procedures are reviewed regularly by the Audit and Risk Committees and reported to your Board. The Board has confirmed that all tests, including the criteria for VCT qualifying status, continue to be met.

VCT Regulatory Developments

The March 2015 Budget announced a package of changes to the VCT scheme, including a new age limit on companies qualifying for investment and a new cap on total EIS/VCT investment that a company can receive. As the limits proposed are higher than those provided for under European Union (EU) requirements, and are therefore subject to State Aid approval, the legislation has not been published in the Finance Bill 2015. A consultation period for comments on the draft legislation closed on 15 May 2015.

On 15 April 2015, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) published guidance on how it intends to apply the proposed new EU rule changes to investments made between 6 April 2015 and the date the EU grants State Aid approval, which involves new procedures in particular circumstances where investments exceed the basic EU limits of seven years and €15 million in total.

This, combined with the statements made in the July 2015 Budget, has resulted in a degree of uncertainty as to whether or not specific new investments made after 6 April 2015 will be VCT qualifying, and may restrict the number and range of later-stage small and medium sized enterprises that are available for your Company to invest in. The Manager is engaged in a consultation process with HM Treasury alongside other leading VCT managers and the AIC.

Fund Raising

In October 2014 the Company announced that it planned to raise up to £4 million in an Offer for Subscription alongside Offers by four other Maven VCTs. The Offer by your Company reached its fund raising target and closed ahead of schedule. Following an initial allotment of 5,506,387 new Ordinary Shares on 20 February 2015, a further allotment in respect of the 2014/15 tax year took place on 20 March 2015, when 203,769 new Ordinary Shares were issued, and a final allotment of 405,284 new Ordinary Shares took place on 13 April 2015 in respect of the 2015/16 tax year.

Under existing legislation, the Company may use the money raised under the Offer to pay dividends (subject to meeting the requirements of the return of capital legislation effective from 6 April 2014) and general running costs, thereby preserving for investment purposes an equivalent sum of more valuable 'old money' which operates under more advantageous VCT regulations. The proceeds of the Offer will also provide additional liquidity for the Company to make further investments, and enable it to spread its costs over a larger asset base to the benefit of all Shareholders.

Share Buy-backs

Shareholders have given the Board authority to buy back Shares for cancellation or to be held in treasury, subject always to such transactions being in the best interests of Shareholders. It is intended that, subject to market conditions, available liquidity and the maintenance of the Company's VCT status, Shares will be bought back at prices representing a discount in the range of 5% to 10% to the prevailing NAV per share. No Shares were bought back during the period under review.

Management and Administration Fees

HMRC has confirmed that VAT is no longer payable on secretarial fees. The Manager has pursued the recovery of amounts paid previously and the total of £47,000 received has been reflected in the Financial Statements.

Distribution of Annual and Interim Reports

Shareholders are able to elect to receive postal or e-mail notification that documents, including Annual and Interim Reports, are available on the Company's website as an alternative to receiving hard copies by post. A letter of request was provided with the 2014 Interim Report, which Shareholders could complete to confirm whether or not they wished to take advantage of this facility. In the absence of a letter being returned, a Shareholder will have been deemed as having given their consent to receiving only postal notification that documents are available on the website. Therefore, Shareholders who have previously made an election for postal notification, or who elected not to respond, will have received notification by post of the publication of this Interim Report on the Company's website. Shareholders who wish notification to be sent by e-mail rather than by post should advise the Registrar via www.capitashareportal.com. Hard copies of all documents are available on request.

Dividend Investment Scheme (DIS)

On 24 August 2015 the Board announced that, under the Terms and Conditions of the Company's DIS which allow the Directors to suspend or terminate its operation without prior notice and revert to making monetary payments to all Participants, the Directors had resolved that, in light of the investment restrictions proposed in the Government's July 2015 Budget, the DIS was to be suspended with immediate effect. This will allow the Directors and the Manager to review the final changes to the VCT legislation and to consider the full potential impact of these on the Company's future investment strategy. As a result, until further notice, all future dividends will be paid to Shareholders by either cheque or direct bank transfer using existing mandate instructions.

Outlook

The Board, together with the Manager, has considered the impact of the proposed changes to the VCT scheme and the legislation as currently drafted. Whilst your Company will continue to focus on investing principally in established UK businesses, which are each capable of generating a high level of income and offer the potential to achieve capital appreciation on realisation, it is disappointing that it may be constrained in pursuing certain opportunities because of the age of the business or the transaction type. The Board and the Manager believe that a strategy of investing in profitable and well managed companies will continue to deliver steady growth in Shareholder value and support a progressive dividend programme.
