Trust plc (the "Company") announces that it
is satisfied that any inside information which the Directors or the
Company may have had up to today's date has previously been
notified to a Regulated Information Service ("RIS").
By virtue of the points set out in (1)
to (5) below, the Directors and the Company do not currently expect
there to be any inside information arising in the closed period
which will end on the date of the announcement of the Company's
Annual Financial Report for the year ended 30 June 2024.
1) the announcement on 4
July 2024 of the Company's net asset value per share as of the
close of business on 30 June 2024,
2) the Company's belief,
following reasonable enquiries, that there will be no material
difference between the information published on 4 July 2024 and
that to be included in the forthcoming announcement of the Annual
Financial Report,
3) the Company's practice
of calculating net asset values per share each business day and the
announcement of these net asset values to an RIS,
4) there being no unquoted
investments within the Company's portfolio, and
5) there being no other
unpublished information which constitutes price-sensitive
information in respect of the Company's securities.
The Company is therefore not
prohibited from dealing in its own securities during the closed
period.
If, during the closed period leading
up to the announcement of the Annual Financial Report, the Company
or its Directors become aware of any inside information, such
inside information will be managed in accordance with the UKLA's
DTR 2.
