VCT and enterprise investment scheme fund manager Calculus Capital has made 1.81x money upon exiting its stake in London-based Metropolitan Safe Deposits.
The exit comes four and a half years after the GP first acquired a stake in the safe deposit company at 6.32 pence per share.
At exit, Calculus sold its entire shareholding to private investors at a price of 11 pence per share, resulting in a 1.81x cash-on-cash return. Including the tax relief available to investors as part of the EIS and VCT schemes, the return increases to as much as 2.58x.
