The NAV per share has decreased by 2.04 pence in the quarter (a decrease of 2.6% upon the opening NAV per share). This decrease was principally due to a dividend payment of 4.00 pence per share on 26 May 2023 (further details below), but this was partially offset by a rise in the unrealised valuation of the portfolio. On a NAV total return basis, after adding back the dividend of 4.00 pence per share, there was an increase of 2.5%.
