Downing Two VCT Plc announced the ‘G’ Share pool has also commenced the process of realising its investments and returning funds to investors. Plans for further realisations have however been severely disrupted by the pandemic. The disposal of a pub investment was completed prior to the lockdown. These proceeds are being distributed by way of a dividend of 2.0 pence per share which will be paid to ‘G’ Shareholders on 19 May 2020 who are on the register at 24 April 2020. This will be paid as an interim dividend in respect of the year ended 31 December 2019. The VCT regulations have effectively prevented the ‘K’ Share pool from paying any dividends in its initial three years. This period has now expired and so the ‘K’ Share pool will pay its first dividend of 7.5 pence per ‘K’ Share on 19 May 2020 to shareholders on the register at 24 April 2020. This will be paid as an interim dividend in respect of the year ended 31 December 2019.
