(1) The fair value of the IPS business has been calculated as at
31 December 2019. The fair value at 30 June 2020 is currently being
calculated and will be published as part of our half year results
announcement. This, along with other half year-end adjustments, is
likely to result in a variance between the NAV we have published
today and the final NAV we will disclose in our half yearly
report.
(2) NAV is calculated in accordance with the Association of
Investment Companies (AIC) methodology, based on performance data
held by Law Debenture including fair value of IPS business and
