Gledhow Investments plc
("Gledhow" or the "Company") First Half Results to 31 March
2022
Date: 1 June 2022 Results
Gledhow is pleased to announce its half year results ("interim
results") for the current financial year. The period covered is
from 1 October 2021 to 31 March 2022. These are unaudited interim
results.
The Company continues to pursue its investment strategy which
has the objective of achieving long-term capital growth.
The Company had cash of GBP 215,980 at the period end. The
Company made a pre-tax loss of GBP 292,825 which included net
unrealised losses on investments of GBP 434,968.
Despite the uncertain economic environment, the Company is in a
strong position, thanks to its strong cash position, and we look
forward to being able to make opportunistic investments in small to
medium sized undervalued companies as they arise.
Risks in Relation to COVID-19
Whilst the full impact of the global pandemic is yet to be felt
by businesses worldwide, it is likely to have a negative impact on
the business prospects generally and small companies in particular.
Likewise, the impact of the war in Ukraine, global supply chain
issues and inflation heighten the risks for smaller companies in
general. This has impacted on share prices, including some shares
held by the Company. There remains the risk that the Company's
investments might be further negatively impacted and might not
realise the carrying values on sale.
Post Year-End Update
Since announcing the Company's audited results in January 2022,
the Company continues to hold positions in AIM, LSE and Aquis
Exchange traded companies, including those companies at early
stages of development, and some pre-IPO investments. Of the
companies in the portfolio as at the end of May 2022, the Company
holds approximately 34% in AQSE Growth Market companies, and the
remainder in AIM and LSE quoted/listed companies, and a small
percentage in private companies, invested on a pre-IPO basis. The
Directors continue to caution that there is a historically
perceived lack of liquidity generally in AQSE Growth Market traded
companies and that these investments may not be readily realisable
into cash.
In the portfolio, there are some investee companies in the midst
of undertaking reverse takeover or other corporate activity, and it
is hoped that these companies will be successful in completing such
transactions, allowing Gledhow to monetise its positions into
cash.
The directors of the issuer accept responsibility for the
contents of this announcement.
