VCM60155 - VCT scheme: general: reconstruction involving the issue of shares or securities: valuation of the new holding
SI2661/2002 Regulation 9 (2) & (3)
ITA/S274, S278 & S289
A VCT may hold shares or securities in a company A, which is
involved in a scheme of reconstruction. In these circumstances the
VCT may acquire new shares or securities in one or more other
companies and may give up or retain the old shares or securities in
company A (see
VCM62420). Assume the VCT has acquired
shares in Company B.
Any company A shares or securities that are retained by the
VCT after the scheme of reconstruction and any new shares or
securities issued by company B to the VCT are valued for the 15%
holding limit condition, the 70% qualifying holding condition and
the 30% eligible shares condition (see
VCM60110 onwards) as follows.
The aggregate value of:
- the new shares and new securities of company B, and
- any company A shares or securities retained
- is calculated immediately after the last of the shares in or securities of company B to be issued in consequence of the scheme of reconstruction is issued, using the formula below. This value will then be used until the shares or securities fall to be revalued in accordance with ITA/S278(3) (see VCM60150).
The formula is:
| Nv = | Ov x | Nmv
|
|
|
| Nmv + C |
where
| Nv = | the aggregate value of the new shares and securities of company B and of the company A shares or securities retained |
| Ov = | the aggregate value of the old shares and securities in company A when they were last valued (see VCM60150) |
| Nmv = | the aggregate market value of the new shares and securities of company B and of the company A shares or securities retained, immediately after the last of the shares in or securities of company B to be issued in consequence of the scheme of reconstruction is issued |
| C = | the aggregate market
value, immediately after the last of the shares in or securities of
company B to be issued in consequence of the scheme of
reconstruction is issued, of:
(i) any monetary amount, (ii) any monetary amount (without any discount for postponement of the right to receive payment or any part of it), and (iii) any other consideration of receipt (except the new shares and securities, received by the VCT as consideration for, or in respect of, the old shares or securities. |
This same method of valuation is to be used to check that
each qualifying holding comprises at least 10% eligible shares as
required by ITA/S289 (see
VCM62030).
