Mindflair has successfully realised £2.6m in cash from its disposal of Getvisibility and sale of indirect interest in SVV1. may also receive additional cash from any distribution made by Sure Ventures. The disposal represents a return of 6.0x on the total investment made into the company directly and a c. 4.5x on the total investment made by SVV1.
The carrying value of Mindflair's direct investment in Getvisibility was last reported at £1.2m on December 31, 2024. said it would use part of the proceeds from the transaction to settle remaining outstanding loan notes amounting to c. £800k and accrued interest thereon. Investors can expect a further update on the use of the proceeds and 's portfolio.
This is Mindflair's fifth exit event from SVV1 since its inception as the fund is now firmly in the exit/realisation phase. In our estimation, remains undervalued, given the scope for material valuation uplift of the companies within its portfolio, evidenced by today's and other recent announcements. At its current share price, is still trading at a significant discount to NAV, presenting an attractive opportunity for growth investors.
