# On 10 March 2025, the Company announced a share split resulting in
Shareholders receiving 5 new ordinary shares in exchange for each existing
ordinary share held at the record date of 12 March 2025. The comparatives
against which the change during the year has been calculated have therefore
been amended to reflect this share split.

 

Ian Dighé, Chairman, commented:

"Despite the many headwinds experienced in the UK over the period and the
impact this has had on the Company's performance we continue to believe that
investing in high quality, quoted, UK small and mid-cap companies will deliver
strong capital growth for Shareholders over the longer term. Chelverton has a
very credible track record from which to grow the size of the Company and
deliver these returns. As market conditions improve the Board and the
Investment Manager look forward to taking advantage of the opportunity
presented."

 

The Directors are pleased to attach the Company's annual report and financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2025.
