Chairman's Statement
Introduction
I am pleased to present the Annual Report of Octopus VCT plc for the
year ended 28 February 2014.
Performance
The Company has had a good year and has continued to trade in line with
its objective of focusing more on capital preservation than a typical
VCT. It is pleasing to report that the total return (being the net asset
value ('NAV') plus cumulative dividends paid to date) has increased from
98.2 pence per share as at 28 February 2013 to 101.9 pence per share as
at 28 February 2014, an increase of 3.8%. A large part of this increase
is due to the revaluation of a number of investments which had
previously been held at cost, reflecting the early stage of these
investments, and which resulted in an uplift of GBP1.5 million in the
value of the investment portfolio. A surplus of interest income received
on the Company's loan investments over the Company's running costs also
contributed to the positive return.
Dividend
Given the strong performance of the Company's portfolio and the level of
interest income earned during the year from investments, the Board has
proposed a final dividend of 1.0 pence per share in respect of the year
ended 28 February 2014 (2013: 1.0 pence per share). This dividend, if
approved by shareholders at the AGM, will be paid on 14 August 2014 to
shareholders on the register on 11 July 2014.
Investment Portfolio
A further GBP5.6m was invested during the year under review. GBP4.6m was
invested in Clifford Thames Group, a company specialising in consultancy,
business outsourcing, software and data services for the automotive
industry. A follow on investment of GBP1.0m was made in Healthcare
Services and Technology, a company seeking qualifying investments in the
healthcare technology sector.
The remainder of the loans to Shakti Power, Helaku Power and Salus
Services 2 were fully repaid during the year, whilst a partial loan
repayment was made by Michabo Power. In total, these loan repayments
returned GBP5.2m in cash back to the Company.
In addition, the Company disposed of its equity holdings in Salus
Services 2 and Game Development and Management, resulting in an overall
loss of GBP173,000.
Investment Strategy
As set out in the prospectus, the Company has adopted a strategy that is
aimed at making investments that focus more on capital preservation than
are typically available from investments in unquoted companies. The
Qualifying Investments have been made into companies where the Octopus
team is confident that there is the opportunity to invest in a manner
that should provide the Company with a high level of capital security.
These companies typically have contractual revenues from financially
sound customers or a revenue stream that is generated from predictable
transactions with a range of customers.
VCT Qualifying Status
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP provides the Board and Investment Manager
with advice concerning ongoing compliance with Her Majesty's Revenue &
Customs (HMRC) rules and regulations concerning VCTs. The Board has been
advised that Octopus VCT plc is in compliance with the conditions laid
down by HMRC for maintaining approval as a VCT.
A key requirement is to reach at least the 70% qualifying investment
level by the end of the third accounting period. As at 28 February 2014,
84.1% of the portfolio, as measured by HMRC rules, was invested in VCT
qualifying investments.
Annual General Meeting
The Company's Annual General Meeting will take place on Thursday, 31
July 2014 at 3.30 p.m. I look forward to meeting as many shareholders as
possible at the meeting to be held at the offices of Octopus Investments
Limited at 20 Old Bailey, London, EC4M 7AN. Directions to their offices
can be found on their website: www.octopusinvestments.com.
Electronic Communications
Based on feedback from shareholders, and in order to reduce the cost of
printing and the consequential impact on the environment, we now offer
shareholders the opportunity to forgo their printed report and account
documents in favour of receiving an email or letter notifying them that
the documents are available to view online or to receive documents by
email. If you would like to change the format in which you receive this

Outlook
There is now no doubt that the UK economy is in recovery, which is a
marked improvement from the economic outlook this time last year. Banks
are beginning to lend more to businesses, but this remains on a
restricted basis; in addition, many companies continue to prefer the
more partnership-style of investment offered by VCTs such as your
Company. The value of the Company grew consistently throughout the
recent prolonged recession, which is testament to the prudent investment
approach adopted by the fund management team. This investment approach
of capital preservation will continue as the Manager seeks further
investments to continue to grow the value of the Company.

Investment Manager's Review
Personal Service
At Octopus we focus on both managing your investments and keeping you
informed throughout the investment process. We are committed to
providing our investors with regular and open communication. Our
updates are designed to keep you informed about the progress of your
investment.
Octopus Investments Limited was established in 2000 and has a strong
commitment to both smaller companies and to VCTs. We currently manage
13 VCTs, including this VCT, and manage over GBP340 million in the VCT
sector. Octopus has over 250 employees. The investment team that
manages the portfolio of your company is comprised of 6 managers, with
additional support from specialist investment teams and support staff.
Investment Policy
The investment approach of Octopus VCT plc is to seek investments that
focus more on capital preservation than a typical VCT. Nearly all of
the companies in which Octopus VCT invests operate in sectors where
there is a high degree of predictability. Investments are sought in
companies that have contractual revenues from financially sound
customers and will provide an exit for shareholders within three to five
years.
Performance
As at 28 February 2014 the total return (being the NAV plus cumulative
dividends paid) stood at 101.9 pence per share compared to 98.2 pence at
28 February 2013, an increase of 3.8%.
This increase is mainly due to the strong performance of the portfolio,
which has seen an overall increase in its value of GBP1,498,000 in the
year and also partly due to strong interest income earned on loan
investments, which totalled GBP1,236,000 in the year, exceeding the
running costs of the Company, totalling GBP528,000 in the year.
The disposals of Salus Services 2, Game Development and Management and
loan repayments from Salus Services 2, Helaku Power Power, Michabo Power
and Shakti Power led to GBP6,282,000 of cash inflows back to the
Company.
The Company's investments into twelve solar companies in 2011 and 2012,
being Donoma Power, Sula Power, Howbery Solar, Meri Power, Aashman Power,
Kala Power, Tonatiuh Trading 1, Helaku Power, Nima Power, Tuwale Power,
Palk Power and Gnowee Power, all performed well during the period,
leading to a combined upward revaluation for these twelve companies of
GBP1,436,000. However the five companies which acquired solar sites in
France, being Resilient Corporate Services, Healthcare Education
Business Services, MediaCo Business Services, Personnel Advisory
Services and Saas Business Services, saw an overall downwards
revaluation of GBP630,000. Five additional solar companies, Horrebow
Energy, Mallina Power, Misae Power, Paivatar Power and Jokim saw a
combined downwards movement of GBP579,000. Therefore, overall, the solar
portfolio saw an upwards revaluation of GBP227,000.
Solid trading results for Clifford Thames Group, CSL Dualcom, 3AM Music,
Atlantic Screen International and Technical Software Consultants led to
further upward revaluations totalling GBP1,219,000. EKF Diagnostics, the
Company's only AIM traded investment, continued to see a rise in its
share price resulting in an upward revaluation of GBP238,000.
These gains were partially offset by prudent downward revaluations for
Acquire Your Business, Quickfire Films and Quickfire 2 Films. Together
these downwards adjustments totalled GBP186,000.
Portfolio Review
A new VCT qualifying investment totalling GBP4,616,000 was made in
Clifford Thames Group, a market leader in consultancy, business
outsourcing, software and data services for the automotive industry, in
the period. This investment was made alongside an investment by Octopus
Apollo VCT plc, a VCT which Octopus also manages. In addition, a follow
on investment of GBP1,000,000 was made in Healthcare Services and
Technology ("HST") during the period. The Company now has GBP2,500,000
invested in HST which continues to seek a VCT qualifying investment in
the healthcare technology sector.
The Company's investments in Erie Heat and Winnipeg Heat, originally
intended for deployment into ground source heat pump opportunities, have
now been redeployed into two new anaerobic digestion sites, where
construction is currently underway. Anaerobic digestion sites offer a
similar asset-backed, capital preservation opportunity to ground source
heat pump or solar sites.
Outlook
Over the past year the UK economy has entered a period of recovery -
with growth of between 0.7% and 0.9% per quarter for the year to 31
March 2014. Other positive indicators include continuing increasing
consumer confidence and low inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price
Index, which in February 2014 fell to 1.7%, its lowest point in over
four years. This is encouraging for both consumers and businesses.
Against this backdrop, banks are beginning to be more active in again
lending to small and medium-sized businesses, although our experience is
that demand for funding still far outstrips supply; this presents our
investment team with a number of ongoing investment opportunities
suitable for the investment mandate of Octopus VCT.
The Company's portfolio, constructed on a basis of capital preservation,
has weathered the difficult economic conditions of the past few years
and has continued to grow in value; it is well positioned for further
growth as conditions continue to improve. We will continue to invest in
line with the Company's mandate of capital preservation and are
optimistic about the Company's current portfolio and future investment
prospects.
If you have any questions on any aspect of your investment, please call
one of the team on 0800 316 2295.

Valuation Methodology
Initial measurement
With the exception of one investment which is traded on AIM, the
investments held by Octopus VCT plc are unquoted and as such there is no
trading platform from which prices can be easily obtained. Financial
assets are measured at fair value. The initial best estimate of fair
value of a financial asset that is either quoted or not quoted in an
active market is the transaction price of the recent round (i.e. cost).
Subsequent measurement
Subsequent adjustment to the fair value of unquoted investments has been
made using sector multiples where applicable, based on information as at
28 February 2014. In some cases the multiples have been compared to
equivalent companies where it is believed that this is more appropriate
than a sector multiple. In instances where an investment has
predictable future cash flows, discounted cash flow valuations are used
to support the fair value.
In accordance with our interpretation of the IPEVC valuation guidelines,
investments made within 12 months are usually kept at cost, unless
performance indicates that fair value has changed.

guidelines, please visit their website at:

Directors' Responsibilities Statement
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report,
Directors' Report, Directors' Remuneration Report and the financial
statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for
each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to
prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting
Standards and applicable laws). Under company law the directors must
not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they
give a true and fair view of the state of affairs and profit or loss of
the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements,
the directors are required to:
-- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
and
-- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been
followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in
the financial statements.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records
that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and
disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of
the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements and
the Directors' Remuneration report comply with the Companies Act 2006.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and
hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of
fraud and other irregularities.
The directors confirm that:
so far as each director is aware, there is no relevant audit information
of which the company's auditor is unaware; and
the directors have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as
directors in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit
information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that
information.
The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report in
accordance with applicable law and regulations. Having taken advice from
the Audit Committee, the directors consider the annual report and the
financial statements, taken as a whole, provide the information
necessary to assess the company's performance, business model and
strategy and is fair, balanced and understandable.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the
corporate and financial information included on the company's website.
Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and
dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in
other jurisdictions.
To the best of our knowledge:
-- the financial statements, prepared in accordance with United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting
Standards and applicable laws), give a true and fair view of the assets,
liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the company; and
-- the annual report, including the strategic report, includes a fair review
of the development and performance of the business and the position of
the company, together with a description of the principal risks and
uncertainties that it faces.
