OCTOPUS APOLLO VCT PLC
Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights
Octopus Apollo VCT plc (the ‘Company’) announces that 352,986 Ordinary
Shares of 0.1p each were issued and allotted on 26 May 2026 at a price of
49.1p per share equivalent to the current NAV.
These shares were issued to those investors who, in accordance with the
adviser charging terms contained in each fundraising document offered to the
public and published since 31 December 2012 following the introduction of the
Retail Distribution Review, had chosen to pay their adviser less than the 0.5%
ongoing adviser charge. One deceased shareholder was included as part of these
investors and their estate will receive a proportion of the rebate in cash in
place of Ordinary Shares.
An application for the shares to be admitted to the Official List of the
Financial Conduct Authority (‘FCA’) and to trading on the London Stock
Exchange’s main market for listed securities will be made and dealings are
expected to commence on or around 1 June 2026.
The issued share capital and total voting rights of the Company are now
1,186,503,249. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the
denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are
required to issue a notification of their interest in, or of a change in their
interest in the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules.
