1 The fair value of the IPS business is consistent with the most recent formal valuation at 30 June 2020.  The fair value at 31 December 2020 is currently being calculated and will be published as part of our audited results.  This, along with other year-end adjustments, will result in a slight variance between the NAV we have and the final audited NAV we will disclose in our Annual Report and Accounts.

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 long-term borrowings. NAV is shown with debt measured at par and with debt measured at fair value.
