Interim Management Report for the six months ended 31 July 2016
(unaudited)
The Directors announce the unaudited Interim Management Report
for the six months ended 31 July 2016.
Highlights
-- NAV total return of 97.69p per share at 31 July 2016,
compared to 97.47p at 31 January 2016
-- NAV at 31 July 2016 of 50.97p per share, after payment of the
final dividend of 2.25p per share
-- Interim dividend declared of 2.00p per share (2015: 2.00p)
-- Exit from Dantec Hose, generating a total return multiple of 2.1 times cost
-- New investments completed in The GP Service (UK) and Rockar
-- Strong pipeline of new rule qualifying private equity investments
Overview
In the period under review NAV total return increased to 97.69p
per share. This is in line with your Company's continuing objective
of delivering long term capital appreciation whilst also generating
maintainable levels of income for Shareholders.
Your Board and the Manager recognise the importance of dividends
to Shareholders and the Directors are pleased to declare an interim
dividend of 2.00p per share for the period to 31 July 2016.
The portfolio now extends to 55 private and AIM listed company
holdings, many of which are paying a regular yield, offering a
combination of capital and revenue returns with the aim of
underpinning Shareholder value in the years ahead. During the
period under review, Maven was pleased to complete new investments
in The GP Service (UK) and Rockar.
During the reporting period Maven has focused on the practical
implementation of the new VCT rules, which were enacted in November
2015 and detailed in the 2016 Annual Report. The revised
legislation brings the UK VCT scheme into line with European Union
(EU) State Aid Rules for smaller company investment and imposes a
number of restrictions on the types of transactions and companies
which VCTs are able to invest in. The rules specifically prohibit
participation in management buy-outs or acquisitions, and limit the
ability to support older companies unless certain criteria are met.
Whilst this means that your Company can no longer finance certain
transactions, the Manager's investment team has a strong track
record of investing development capital in companies which meet the
revised VCT qualification criteria.
Dividends
The Board has declared an interim dividend of 2.00p per Ordinary
Share, comprising 0.2p of revenue and 1.8p of capital, to be paid
on 28 October 2016 to Shareholders on the Register at 30 September
2016. Since the Company's launch, and after receipt of the interim
dividend, Shareholders will have received 48.72p 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.
On 24 August 2015 the Board announced that, under the Terms and
Conditions of the Company's Dividend Investment Scheme (DIS), 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 would allow the
Directors and the Manager to review the changes to the VCT
legislation and to consider the 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.
Portfolio Developments
The private equity portfolio has generally performed well, with
positive trading results having led to valuation uplifts for a
number of companies operating across a range of sectors. The Board
has, however, elected to take provisions against the values of two
businesses with an exposure to the oil & gas sector.
Nenplas, a manufacturer and distributor of plastic extrusions
for a variety of applications, has continued to perform ahead of
plan due to operational efficiencies achieved through the
integration of Polyplas, increased sales volumes, lower raw
material costs and favourable market conditions, particularly
within the leisure and mobile home sectors. The company has repaid
all of its senior debt and remains a highly cash generative and
valuable portfolio asset.
Cursor Controls, a global leader in the design and niche
manufacture of trackball pointing solutions for industrial
applications, has performed well since Maven clients invested in
July 2015. The business delivered impressive organic growth in the
year to 31 December 2015 and is forecast to build on this in the
current year. In April 2016 Cursor completed the acquisition of a
Belgian distributor, which is expected to be significantly earnings
enhancing.
The year to 31 December 2015 was another excellent trading
period for John McGavigan, a manufacturer and supplier of technical
plastic components and interior parts for the global automotive
industry. The first quarter of 2016 has continued this positive
trend, with further organic growth in both China and Scotland
enhanced by the benefits of a number of productivity improvement
projects. The order book remains strong, providing increased
visibility of future revenues for the business.
The UK's largest provider of promotional merchandise, SPS (EU),
has experienced excellent growth under private ownership since
Maven clients invested in February 2014. Operational improvements
have enhanced profitability, whilst organic growth has been
supplemented through two complementary acquisitions, High Profile
Plastic and TEC, both of which were completed in the year to 31
December 2015. The business is forecasting to deliver further
growth in the current financial year and make operational
efficiencies, as a result of the implementation of a new enterprise
resource planning system.
DPP provides mechanical and electrical maintenance and
installation services, mainly to the leisure, hospitality and
retail sectors in the south of England and Wales. The company
differentiates itself from competitors by employing a large and
highly responsive team of skilled engineers. Following the loss of
a significant customer in 2014, the company restructured its
operations and has now secured a number of new contracts, allowing
the business to materially improve its trading performance over the
past twelve months.
Maven clients first invested in Just Trays, the UK's leading
manufacturer of shower trays and related accessories, in June 2014.
Subsequently the business has increased its customer base and
extended its product range, with a number of innovative new
products to be launched in the current financial year. Just Trays
repaid its bank debt in full during 2015 and is planning to invest
in automation in the coming year, which should help improve the
production facility and increase operating margins.
As well as reflecting good trading performance across the
portfolio, your Board and the Manager continue to be mindful of the
possible effects of the enduring low oil price on those companies
that operate in the oil & gas market. The Manager has worked
closely with these companies as they have implemented overhead
reduction programmes, targeted at reducing the cost base and
closing non-core operations with a view to conserving cash and
positioning the businesses for recovery. Across the energy services
sector, budgets have been set conservatively based on the
expectation that the remainder of 2016 will be challenging, with
recovery starting to feed through in 2017 as the oil price
stabilises and the pent up demand for essential maintenance and
repair work is released. In response to these market conditions,
the valuations of Glacier Energy Services and HCS Control Systems
Group have been reduced. The Board and the Manager believe that the
valuations of the remaining portfolio assets with exposure to the
energy services sector remain fair and reasonable and the exit from
Dantec Hose, along with a number of other realisations in the
previous reporting period, has significantly reduced your Company's
exposure to this sector. The remaining assets in this sector are
focused on the operational expenditure segment of the industry,
rather than being dependent on large capital expenditure programmes
or exploration projects.
New Investments
During the period, two new private company assets were added to
the portfolio:
-- The GP Service (UK) is a provider of on-line medical
consultation services, delivered through a web-based platform
(www.thegpservice.co.uk) and which offers GP consultations via a
video link, with prescriptions issued to a pharmacy of the user's
choice. The investment will enable The GP Service to accelerate the
roll out of its service across new geographic locations and to
develop a range of products and services where there are strong
market drivers.
-- Rockar is an innovative motor retailer with a disruptive
technology platform led by a team with extensive experience of the
sector. The investment will enable Rockar to enhance its product
offering and finance new dealerships in major shopping centres,
working in partnership with well-known brands including Jaguar Land
Rover and Hyundai. The investment completed in July 2016, with
Maven clients investing alongside NVM Private Equity.
The following investments have been completed during the

Realisations
In February 2016 your Company realised its investment in Dantec
Hose through a sale to an overseas trade buyer, achieving a return
of 2.1 times cost over the life of the investment. Maven clients
funded the management buy-out of Dantec Hose, a manufacturer of
flexible composite hoses used by a wide range of industries, in
September 2011.
Subsequent to the period end, the Manager has been 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 exits.

Material Developments Since the Period End
No new investments have been made since 31 July 2016. However,
given the strength of the current pipeline of investment
opportunities, the Manager expects to complete a number of VCT
qualifying transactions prior to the year-end. Other than a minor
repayment of loan notes by DPP, no realisations have taken place
subsequent to the period end.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company were
set out in full in the Strategic Report contained within the 2016
Annual Report, and are the risks associated with investment in
small and medium sized unlisted and AIM/ISDX quoted companies
which, by their nature, carry a higher level of risk and are
subject to lower liquidity than investments in large quoted
companies. The valuation of investee companies may be affected by
economic conditions, the credit environment and other risks
including 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 Committee and reported to
your Board. The Board has confirmed that all tests, including the
criteria for VCT qualifying status, continue to be monitored and
met.
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 of between 10% and
20% to the prevailing NAV per share. During the period under review
217,000 Shares were bought back at a total cost of GBP101,000.
Regulatory Developments
As detailed in the 2016 Annual Report, the July 2015 Budget
received Royal Assent on 18 November 2015, bringing into statute a
number of material changes to the legislation governing the UK VCT
scheme, aligning it with EU State Aid Rules for smaller company
investment. The new rules impose specific restrictions on the types
of transactions and companies which VCTs are able to pursue in
order to retain qualifying status. As a further amendment, the
March 2016 Budget statement included an announcement that there
would be changes to the rules governing non-qualifying investments
for VCTs. With effect from 6 April 2016 VCTs are only permitted to
make qualifying investments and certain limited investments for
liquidity purposes, with other non- qualifying investments
prohibited. Given the complexity of the new rules, and in order to
ensure ongoing compliance, the Company continues to engage the
services of an adviser to assist in interpreting the revised
legislation in relation to proposed new transactions.
Since the announcement of the new rules, along with other
leading VCT managers, Maven has been engaged in a consultation
process led by the industry representative body the Association of
Investment Companies (AIC). The AIC has been in discussion with HM
Treasury to present the case for permitting an element of
replacement capital in certain circumstances in new VCT
transactions. This dialogue is ongoing and Shareholders will be
kept up to date on any new developments.
On 3 July 2016 the EU's Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) came into
force, replacing the Market Abuse Directive (MAD) in the UK, and is
now applicable to all UK Listed and AIM quoted companies. The aim
of MAR is to enhance market integrity and investor protection and,
although on similar lines to MAD, its scope has been expanded to
include financial instruments traded on multilateral trading
facilities, organised trading facilities and certain
'over-the-counter' activities, and will also introduce new rules on
the disclosure of inside information, insider lists and share
dealings by persons discharging managerial responsibilities. Maven
anticipates that compliance with MAR will not have a significant
impact on the activities of its VCT clients, and all relevant
policies and procedures have been updated as appropriate.
Outlook
Shareholders will be aware of the result of the Referendum held
on 23 June 2016, in which the electorate expressed the wish that
the UK should leave the EU. Although the full impact of this
decision will become clearer over the coming months, the businesses
in which your Company has invested will maintain or adapt their
growth strategies as appropriate, with many exporters already
seeing a short-term benefit from the devaluation of sterling
against several major currencies that has occurred to the date of
this report.
The Directors are mindful that the introduction of the revised
legislation has imposed a number of restrictions on the types of
businesses and transactions in which VCTs can invest. This will
require the Manager to focus on the provision of development
capital or investing in businesses with growth finance
requirements, at the expense of management buy-out or acquisition
based transactions which have traditionally offered more
predictable returns. Your Board is confident that the experienced
investment resource available to the Manager across its national
office network remains capable of sourcing high quality
opportunities which comply with the amended rules, whilst
continuing to meet its rigorous investment quality criteria.
Notwithstanding the impact of recent legislative changes, your
Board remains committed to delivering its core objectives of
achieving long term capital appreciation and generating
maintainable levels of income for Shareholders. The current
portfolio of private company holdings offers the ability to
maintain a regular yield for your Company and support future
shareholder returns.
