Purchase of securities by Octopus
Investments Nominees Limited
Octopus Titan VCT plc (‘the Company’) announces
that Octopus Investments Nominees Limited (‘OINL’), part of the
Octopus Group, has acquired (the ‘Share Acquisition’) 57,006 Shares
(‘Shares’) at an aggregate price of £33,695.51. The Share
Acquisition relates to (i) allotments on 30 May 2024 pursuant to
the Company's dividend reinvestment scheme (‘DRIS’) in respect of
holdings in the Company's ISA product, where the apportioned
allotments to underlying shareholders resulted in fractional
entitlements equal to 86 Shares that are included in the Share
Acquisition, with the shareholders receiving a monetary value in
respect of the fractional entitlements and OINL acquiring the
Shares pursuant to the Share Acquisition, (ii) the purchase of
53,293 Shares at a price per Share of 57.5p from shareholders who
submitted a request to sell the Shares as part of the Company’s
share buy back on 6 June 2024 (the ‘June 2024 Buy Back’), but due
to an administrative issue were not included in the transaction,
with OINL purchasing these Shares to ensure that the shareholders
are not disadvantaged as a result of the administrative issue and
with the shareholder receiving the same monies as if the
shareholder had participated in the June 2024 Buy Back and (iii)
3,627 Shares at an aggregate price of £3,000 to correct an
administrative issue in connection with the Company's allotment of
Shares on 5 December 2022 pursuant to the Company's offer for
subscription that was launched on 10 November 2022.
Subject to available distributable reserves and
cash, and regulations, the Company proposes to purchase, for
cancellation, the Shares from OINL in accordance with its share buy
back policy, as part of the next buy back expected to be in October
2024, at a price reflecting a discount of up to 5 per cent of the
then latest published net asset value per share in accordance with
the terms of its stated buy back policy.
Where OINL takes on the risk or benefit of
movements in the Company’s net asset value (‘NAV’), such as in this
instance, OINL will always take on any loss arising from a downward
movement relative to the price at which the Shares were acquired.
Where there is a gain, given the financial risk taken on by OINL in
acquiring these Shares, OINL will also take any profit.
These arrangements constitute a smaller related
party transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.10R.
