Interim Results
Marechale Capital plc today announces its unaudited interim
results for the six months ended 31 October 2019.
Chairman's Statement
Marechale Capital has had another challenging half year since we
reported our final results for the year ended 30 April 2019 in
August. Revenues for the six months of GBP173,000 (2018:
GBP136,000), whilst up on last year, are below budget, resulting in
a loss of GBP62,000 (2018: GBP184,000) after taking into account a
gain of GBP29,000 (2018: GBP67,000) on the realisation of
investments. The Balance Sheet has also reduced further to
GBP103,000 (2018: GBP226,000).
Low revenues are largely due to a continuing challenging market
for advising and raising capital for private, growth companies,
leading to delays in the completion of transactions, and, whilst
our deal flow remains strong, it is still taking longer to complete
transactions. The Company has taken significant steps to reduce its
overheads and has achieved a GBP100,000 reduction by locating to
smaller offices and reducing salary expenses.
The Board of Marechale Capital continues to consider its options
and its future strategy.
