Sure Ventures plc ('Sure Ventures' or 'the Company')

Accounting Restatement

 

 

Sure Ventures is a London listed venture capital fund which invests in early stage software companies in the rapidly growing technology areas of Augmented reality (AR), Virtual reality (VR), Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The Board of Sure Ventures would like to communicate an adjustment to the classification of Income within the Financial Statements for the year ending 31 March 2020. Sure Ventures owns units in Sure Valley Ventures (SVV) which is an Irish fund. SVV sold its stake in Artomatix for EUR 6.2m, with an initial cash payment of EUR 5.65m on completion, resulting in a capital distribution of EUR 1.4m payable to Sure Ventures.

An amount of £946,817 in respect of the above capital distribution was allocated to the revenue column of the Income Statement contained in the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2020. Following a review of the position, the Board considers that this treatment does not accurately reflect the capital nature of the Artomatix distribution.   In the forthcoming Financial Statements for the year ending 31 March 2021, the comparative figures for the year ended 31 March 2020 will be restated to reflect the above distribution as capital rather than revenue.

The Board of Sure Ventures confirms that the above restatement has no impact on the Net Asset Value of the Company.
