An update from Molten Ventures VCT plc ( (GB:MVCT) ) is now available.

Molten Ventures VCT plc has continued its fundraising under an existing share offer, allocating 455,854 new ordinary shares on 17 April 2026 at prices slightly above its adjusted unaudited net asset value per share, following a recent dividend. This latest allotment brings total proceeds under the current offer to £16.4 million, increases the company’s issued share capital to 315,968,614 ordinary shares, and will see the new shares admitted to trading in London, with the offer remaining open into mid-2026 unless closed or extended by the board.

The enlarged capital base should give Molten Ventures VCT more firepower to pursue its venture investment strategy while also affecting existing and prospective shareholders’ calculations on voting rights and disclosure thresholds under FCA rules. The ongoing availability of the offer into the 2026/2027 tax year is likely to appeal to retail investors seeking VCT-related tax benefits, while admission of the new shares to the Official List and London Stock Exchange maintains liquidity and marketability of the stock.
