     Total return per share comprises closing net asset 
 1.   value per share plus cumulative dividends per share 
      paid to date. 
     Based on a weighted average of dividends paid by Core 
 1.   VCT I plc, Core VCT II plc and Core VCT III plc. 
     Ongoing charges ratio is calculated by taking operating 
 1.   costs of the Group (excluding trail commission, third 
      party transaction costs and costs associated with 
      corporate transactions) divided by the average NAV 
      for the year. 
 
 
   Chairman's Statement 
 
   The Net Asset Value ("NAV") Total Return for the Ordinary Shares was 
91.74p as at 31 December 2013, comprising a NAV of 60.59p and weighted 
average cumulative dividends paid of 31.15p per Ordinary Share.  This is 
an increase from the NAV Total Return to 31 December 2012 of 3.0% (and 
an increase of 11.9% since 30 June 2013).  A net profit of GBP1,165,724 
(an increase of 2.69p per share) was recorded in the Statement of 
Comprehensive Income for the year ended 31 December 2013 (2012: net loss 
of GBP1,905,295). 
 
   The increase of 2.69p per Ordinary Share is accounted for by:- 
 
 
   -- An additional 2.84p per Ordinary Share due to an increase in the value of 
      the unquoted portfolio; 
 
   -- Plus a gain generated from the sale of investments totalling 0.52p per 
      Ordinary Share; and 
 
   -- Less 0.67p per Ordinary Share, attributable to operating costs 
 
 
   Investments 
 
   Core Capital I LP ("CCILP") 
 
   CCILP is the vehicle for the major part of the portfolio and allowed the 
Manager to attract additional capital for expansion from outside 
investors in 2011 
 
   During the year a further GBP6.8 million was drawn down from the other 
institutional investors.  The main recipient of these funds were Ark 
Home Healthcare Limited (GBP2.7 million), Colway Limited (GBP1.7 
million) and SPL Services Limited (GBP1.6 million).  As at 31 December 
2013, GBP1.7 million remains to be called (net of General Partner Fee). 
 
   During the year, the valuation of the Company's interest increased by an 
amount equivalent to 5.28p per Ordinary Share or 13.0%. 
 
   Investments directly held by Core VCT plc 
 
   The investments directly held by the Company being Allied Holdings 
Limited, Cording Real Estate Group LLP and Momentous Moving Holdings 
Limited decreased by 2.44p per share during the year. 
 
   The Managers Review provides an update on all the investments held in 
the Company including those held in CCILP. 
 
   Realisations 
 
   I am pleased to report that our small holding in Augentius Fund 
Administration LLP was realised during the year for GBP224,520. The 
total return for the Company was 3.7x cost. 
 
   In addition, Momentous Moving Holdings Limited repaid the balance of 
their short term loan totalling GBP250,000. 
 
   Dividends 
 
   Whilst welcome, the realisations referred to above are not sufficiently 
material to make a meaningful distribution to shareholders.  We expect 
that any future realisations from the portfolio would be more 
significant, and we would then be in a position to distribute such 
proceeds cost effectively to all shareholders.  In the meantime, these 
recent proceeds have assisted with the funding of Allied International 
Holdings Limited and contributed to the retained cash balance at the 
year-end of GBP0.6 million; which the Board believes will provide 
sufficient level of headroom for the operations of the Company. 
Accordingly the Board is not recommending a final dividend to 
shareholders at this stage. 
 
   Alternative Investment Fund Managers' Directive ("AIFMD") 
 
   The AIFMD is European legislation which creates a European-wide 
framework for regulating managers of alternative investment funds 
("AIFs").  Closed-end investment companies such as Core VCT plc fall 
within the remit of these new regulations.  The legislation came into 
force in July 2013, but there is a twelve month transitional period 
which means that the Company has until July 2014 to comply.  The Board 
has reviewed the impact of the directive on the Company's operations and 
decided to appoint the Manager as the Company's AIFM.  The controlling 
members of Core Capital LLP formed a new partnership called Core Capital 
Partners LLP, in order to comply with the AIFMD regulatory requirements. 
Accordingly, on 6 January 2014, the Board terminated the existing 
management deed and appointed Core Capital Partners LLP as the Manager 
of the Company.  Under the directive, the Company is also required to 
appoint a depositary.  The Board is well advanced in considering which 
organisation to appoint as the depositary which will result in an 
additional cost to the Company. 
 
   B Shares 
 
   Shareholders will be aware that the Company has an innovative charging 
structure.  No annual management fees are paid to the Manager, Core 
Capital Partners LLP, which is only rewarded once shareholders have been 
returned all of their effective initial capital of 60 pence and subject 
to a hurdle rate of 5 per cent per annum.  This is achieved through the 
issue of B Shares, which collectively receive 40% of distribution above 
the effective initial capital plus hurdle.  Of these shares, 74% are 
held by the Manager, such that the Manager will receive 29% of 
distributions above the effective initial cost plus hurdle. 
 
   Currently total cumulative distributions, including the hurdle, are 
approximately 53p per Ordinary Share short of the required threshold 
following the achievement of which the B Shares would participate in 
distributions.  However, I would like to remind shareholders that once 
the threshold is achieved, distributions to Ordinary Shares will be 
reduced to 60% of the total, and that your holding in B Shares forms an 
integral part of your investment along with your holding in Ordinary 
Shares. 
 
   Share Price and Share Buy Backs 
 
   We would remind shareholders that we view the NAV Total Return, rather 
than the share price, as the preferred measure of performance, as it 
encompasses the value of the current portfolio and the amount of cash 
distributed to shareholders over the life of their investment. 
 
   We are conscious that the mid price of the shares continues to be at a 
significant discount to the NAV (65% as at 31 December 2013).  Whilst 
the Company has the ability to buy back its own shares, the Board's view 
is that any cash realised from a disposal of investments should be 
returned to all shareholders by way of distribution.  Both the Ordinary 
Shares (CR3) and B Shares (CR3B) are fully listed shares. Prices are 
available on www.londonstockexchange.com. 
 
   Annual General Meeting 
 
   We have taken shareholders' views on board; and this year the Company 
will hold a concurrent AGM with both Core VCT IV plc and Core VCT V plc, 
enabling a single investor presentation while conforming to the 
prescribed procedures for meetings in terms of the Companies Act.  The 
Company's Annual General Meeting will be held at 10.30 am on 1 May 2014 
at 19 Cavendish Square, London, W1A 2AW.  This is a good opportunity for 
shareholders to meet the Directors and the Manager and I would encourage 
you to attend. 
 
   Outlook 
 
   There has been a period of substantial change in the operational 
performance of the underlying companies, especially in those investments 
held in CCILP.  This is now starting to show through maintainable EBITDA 
growth in our largest investments, particularly Kelway Holdings Limited 
and Abriand Limited. 
 
   The UK is beginning to show some improving liquidity conditions for both 
transactions and exit activity following the depressed conditions in the 
conventional market for corporate lending.  The Manager has successfully 
completed the debt refinancing for the restaurant chain Abriand Limited 
and we look forward to reporting on the progress of achieving our 
intended realisations in the future.

   Principal Risks and Uncertainties 
 
   The Company's assets consist mainly of unquoted investments. These 
investments are not publicly traded and there is not a liquid market for 
them, and therefore these investments maybe difficult to realise. More 
detailed explanations of these risks and the way which they are managed 
are contained in note 2. 
 
   Other risks faced by the Company include the following: 
 
 
   -- Economic risk - events such as economic recession, movements in interest 
      rates and the availability of debt finance could affect the valuation of 
      small companies. 
 
   -- Loss of approval as a Venture Capital Trust - the Company must comply 
      with Section 274 of the Income Tax Act 2007 which allows it to be exempt 
      from capital gains tax on investment gains. Any breach of these rules may 
      lead to the Company losing its approval as a VCT. 
 
   -- Investment and strategic - incorrect strategy, asset allocation, and 
      stock selection could all lead to poor returns for shareholders. The 
      underlying investments may also need significant funding which is not in 
      accordance with VCT legislation. 
 
   -- Regulatory - breach of regulatory rules could lead to the suspension of 
      the Company's Stock Exchange Listing, financial penalties or a qualified 
      audit report. 
 
   -- Operational - Failure of the Manager's accounting systems or disruption 
      to the Manager's business could lead to an inability to provide accurate 
      reporting and monitoring, leading to a loss of shareholders' confidence. 
 
 
   -- Financial - inadequate controls by the Manager could lead to 
      misappropriation of assets. Inappropriate accounting policies may lead to 
      misreporting or breaches of regulations. 
 
 
   The Board seeks to mitigate and manage these risks through continual 
review, policy setting, shareholder communication and enforcement of 
contractual obligations and monitoring progress and compliance. 
 
 
 
   Statement of Directors' Responsibilities in Respect of the Annual 
Financial Report 
 
   The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the 
Group and Company financial statements in accordance with applicable 
United Kingdom law and those International Financial Reporting Standards 
("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union. 
 
   Under company law the Directors must not approve the Group and Company 
financial statements unless they are satisfied that they present fairly 
the financial position, the financial performance and cash flows of the 
Group and Company for that period.  In preparing the Group and Company 
financial statements the Directors are required to: 
 
 
   -- select suitable accounting policies in accordance with IAS 8:  Accounting 
      Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and then apply them 
      consistently; 
 
   -- present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that 
      provides relevant, reliable, comparable and understandable information; 
 
   -- provide additional disclosure when compliance with the specific 
      requirements in IFRS is insufficient to enable users to understand the 
      impact of particular transactions, other events and conditions on the 
      Group's and the Company's financial position and financial performance; 
 
   -- state that the Group and Company have complied with IFRS, subject to any 
      material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 
      and 
 
   -- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. 
 
 
   The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records 
that are sufficient to show and explain the transactions of the Group 
and Company and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the 
financial position of the Group and Company and enable them to ensure 
that the Group and Company financial statements comply with the 
Companies Act 2006 and Article 4 of the IAS Regulation.  They are also 
responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and Company and 
hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of 
fraud and other irregularities. 
 
   Under applicable law and regulations, the Directors are responsible for 
preparing a Strategic Report, a Directors' Report, a Directors' 
Remuneration Report and a Corporate Governance Statement. 
 
   We confirm to the best of our knowledge: 
 
 
   -- the financial statements, prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by 
      the European Union, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, 
      financial position and profit or loss of the Group and the Company; and 
 
 
   -- the Report of the Directors includes a fair review of the development and 
      performance of the business and the position of the Group and Company 
      together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that 
      they face.

   Notes: 
 
   1. The financial statements of the Company and the Group have been 
prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and International 
Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as adopted by the European Union. 
 
   The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 
Where presentational guidance set out in the Statement of Recommended 
Practice "Financial Statements of Investment Trust Companies and Venture 
Capital Trusts" ('SORP') issued by the Association of Investment 
Companies ('AIC') in January 2009 is consistent with the requirements of 
IFRS, the Directors have sought to prepare the financial statements on a 
basis compliant with the recommendations of the SORP. 
 
   The financial information for the year ended 31 December 2013 included 
in this report has been taken from the Company's full accounts. 
 
   The functional currency of the Group is UK pounds sterling as this is 
the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group 
operates. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared in UK 
pounds sterling. 
 
   There have been no significant changes to the accounting policies during 
the year 31 December 2013. 
 
   2. Financial Instruments 
 
   The Group's financial instruments in the year comprised equity and fixed 
and floating interest rate securities that are held in accordance with 
the Company's investment objective and cash, liquid resources and short 
term debtors and creditors that arise directly from the Company's 
operations. 
 
   The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are due to 
fluctuations in market prices (market price risk), credit risk and 
interest rate risk, although liquidity risk and currency risk are also 
discussed below. The Board regularly reviews and agrees policies for 
managing each of these risks and these are summarised below. These have 
been in place throughout the current and preceding periods. 
 
   Market Price Risk 
 
   Market price risk arises from uncertainty about the future prices of 
financial instruments held in accordance with the Company's investment 
objectives.  It represents the potential gain or loss that the Company 
might benefit or suffer from through holding market positions in the 
face of market movements. 
 
   The investments in equity and fixed interest stocks of unquoted 
companies that the Group holds are not traded and as such the prices are 
more uncertain than those of more widely traded securities.  As, in a 
number of cases, the unquoted investments are valued by reference to 
price earnings ratios prevailing in quoted comparable sectors, their 
valuations are exposed to changes in the price earnings ratios that 
exist in quoted markets. 
 
   The Board's strategy in managing the market price risk inherent in the 
Group's portfolio of equities and loan stock investments is determined 
by the requirement to meet the Company's investment objective.  As part 
of the investment process, the Board seeks to maintain an appropriate 
spread of market risk, and has full and timely access to relevant 
information from the Investment Manager.  No single investment is 
permitted to exceed 15% of total VCT value of investment assets at the 
point of investment. The Board meets regularly and reviews the 
investment performance and financial results, as well as compliance with 
the Company's objectives. 
 
   Credit Risk 
 
   Credit Risk is the risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge an 
obligation or commitment that it has entered into with the Group. The 
carrying amounts of financial assets best represents the maximum credit 
risk exposure at the balance sheet date. The Group has an exposure to 
credit risk in respect of the loan stock investments it has made in 
investee companies, most of which have no security attached to them, and 
where they do, such security ranks beneath any bank debt that an 
investee company may owe. 
 
   There could also be a failure by counterparties to deliver securities 
which the Group has paid for, or not pay for securities which the Group 
has delivered. This risk is considered to be small as most of the 
Group's investment transactions are in unquoted investments, where 
investments are conducted through solicitors, to ensure that payment 
matches delivery. 
 
   Interest Rate Risk 
 
   The Group's fixed and floating interest rate securities, its equity 
investments and net revenue may be affected by interest rate movements. 
Investments are often in relatively small businesses, which are 
relatively high risk investments sensitive to interest rate 
fluctuations. 
 
   The Group's assets include fixed and floating rate interest instruments. 
The rate of interest earned is regularly reviewed by the Board, as part 
of the risk management processes applied to these instruments, already 
disclosed under market price risk. 
 
   Liquidity Risk 
 
   The investment in equity and fixed interest stocks of unquoted companies 
that the Group holds are not traded. They are not readily realisable. 
The ability of the Group to realise the investments at their carrying 
value may at times not be possible if there are no willing purchasers. 
The Group's ability to sell investments may also be constrained by the 
requirements set down by the VCTs. The maturity profile of the Group's 
loan stock investments disclosed within the consideration of credit risk 
indicates that a majority of these assets will be readily realisable 
within the next 1 to 4 years from the year end. 
 
   All creditors and accruals are due within one year and are comfortably 
covered by cash held and short term debtors. 
 
   Currency Risk 
 
   All assets and liabilities are denominated in sterling and therefore 
there is no currency risk.

   4. Net asset value 
 
   The net asset values per share, as disclosed in the balance sheet, are 
based on attributable assets at the date of the balance sheet 
("attributed basis"). The Board considers that the Articles basis 
reflects the attribution of assets between the two classes of shares 
that would occur in the event that a liquidation of the Company took 
place. On liquidation, B shareholders could be entitled to up to 40% of 
the assets remaining after the Ordinary Shareholders first recover their 
effective initial cost of 60 pence per share plus the annual hurdle 
rates to both share classes, achieved up to the date of liquidation. 
 
   By attributing to the B shares purely the capital contribution of 0.01 
pence per share reflects the Board's best estimate at 31 December 2013 
of the B shares' entitlement to assets at 31 December, given the 
inherent uncertainties in projecting the investment performance of the 
Manager (which will ultimately determine the B shares' entitlement to 
the Company's assets). 
 
   The net asset value per share have been calculated by reference to the 
number of shares in issue at 31 December 2013 (2012: same) being 
43,301,414 Ordinary Shares and 28,867,227 B shares.
