Significant events

• “The past year has seen 2024's limited green shoots in the UK economy wilt under the influences of tax increases and other confidence-sapping policy initiatives by the Labour government, allied to uncertainties on the world stage centred on the US government's planned or imagined changes in import tariffs.”
• “The Company delivered a net asset value total return of 12.8%, strong in absolute terms and ahead of the UK market's total return (as measured by the Deutsche Numis All Share index) of 9.7% and that of the Company's peer group (the Morningstar UK Equity Income sector) which returned 8.8%.”
• “During the year, with the number of UK takeovers increasing, the holdings in 13 Energy, Inspired Energy and wealth manager STM Group were sold from the portfolio.”
• “The largest new holding bought in the period was Greatland Gold, a UK listed, Australian gold miner, together with Lloyds Bank, and OSB Group, formerly known as One Savings Bank.”
• “Each year the board offers shareholders a voluntary redemption opportunity. This year, the date was moved from a redemption point at the end of May to the end of August, in order to avoid accounting and administrative complications over the Company's year-end.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
