The Company has invested in Craigahulliar Energy Ltd and Aeris Power Ltd, which are both small ventures which have taken advantage of the opportunity to generate renewable electricity from landfill gas from sites owned by public bodies in Northern Ireland. This business line gives access to long term, reliable cash flows generated from strong counterparties through Government promoted legislation Renewable Obligation Certificates ("ROCs"), the sale of electricity to a utility company and the potential for sale of electricity to local authorities. Craigahulliar Energy Ltd's plant has been generating electricity for export to the National Grid since 2012 and Aeris Power Ltd's began earlier this year.

Hydro Electric Power

Elementary Energy Ltd is constructing and then will operate a small-scale hydro-electricity plant in the Highlands of Scotland.

Outlook

In line with its investment strategy the Company has a diversified portfolio of VCT qualifying investments. Looking ahead to the coming year, for the Ordinary and A share class portfolios, we will monitor and manage their established holdings to ensure they continue to meet our investment objectives. For the C share class our focus is to invest shareholders' funds to build the portfolio of companies which will construct and operate small-scale hydro-electric installations in the Scottish Highlands.

Financial Assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss. The initial best estimate of fair value of these investments that are either quoted or not quoted on an active market is the transaction price (i.e. cost). The fair value of these investments is subsequently measured by reference to the enterprise value of the investee company, which is best deemed to reflect the fair value. Where the Board considers the investee company's enterprise value to remain unchanged since acquisition, investments continue to be held at cost less any loan repayments received. Where the Board considers the investee company's enterprise value has changed since acquisition, investments are held at a value measured using a discounted cash flow model.
