An update from Foresight 4 VCT ( (GB:FTF) ) is now available.

Foresight Enterprise VCT plc has launched a new share offer to raise up to £40 million, giving existing and new investors an additional opportunity to subscribe for new shares within the current tax year and benefit from VCT tax reliefs. The funds are intended to preserve the trust’s liquidity so it can pursue investment opportunities, sustain its dividend policy, buy back its own shares and cover running costs, with the offer priced at the latest published net asset value per share plus associated costs, meaning limited expected dilution for existing investors. Foresight Group LLP, acting as promoter, will receive a tiered promoter’s fee in line with market practice and has agreed to bear the offer’s costs (excluding intermediary and adviser commissions), a related-party arrangement that has been reviewed as fair and reasonable under UK Listing Rules, underscoring regulatory scrutiny and cost clarity for stakeholders.
