Schroders Capital Global Innovation Trust plc
Write down of Reaction Engines Limited ("Reaction Engines")
Schroders Capital Global Innovation Trust plc (the "Company") is announcing a
downwards revaluation of its existing investment in Reaction Engines, an
Oxfordshire-based firm developing innovative thermal management solutions for
aerospace and other industries. Despite steps to commercialise its heat
exchanger technology and recent contract awards, revenue growth at Reaction
Engines has been slower than management anticipated, and the company will
require further investment and time to become cash positive. Reaction Engines
has appointed advisers to raise additional funds from new and existing
investors.
The Company's holding in Reaction Engines will be revalued from £10.6 million
as at 31 December 2023 to £1.4 million as at 30 June 2024. The impact on the
overall net asset value ("NAV") of the Company will be approximately 4.81%
(based on the latest published NAV as at 31 March 2024).
