Chairman's Statement

Highlights

• Net asset value ('NAV') total return for the six months of +12.0% for the Income shares and +11.9% for the Growth shares as compared to the total return for the FTSE All-Share Index of +11.8%

• Income shares dividend yield of 6.2% at 30 November 2025

Investment performance

For the six months to 30 November 2025, the NAV total return was +12.0% for the Income shares and +11.9% for the Growth shares. The total return for the benchmark index for both share classes, the FTSE All-Share Index, was +11.8%. Of relevance and for interest, the FTSE All-Share Closed End Investments Index total return was +13.1% for the period.

These six months saw strong returns across equity and bond markets as worries over a global trade war dissipated. This is mostly thanks to the initial level of tariffs announced by President Trump back in April being watered down and a number of 'trade deals' being announced between the US and its trading partners. Economic data remained generally positive, with falling - yet still above central bank target - inflation, allowing central banks to further cut interest rates. In the UK, the long-awaited budget brought some relief in respect of keeping financial markets and Labour backbenches satisfied but failed to deliver policies to boost the UK economic growth outlook.

UK equities posted solid returns over the six-month period, with a +12.4% total return for the FTSE 100 and a +7.4% total return for the FTSE 250. Elsewhere, in sterling terms, US equities continued their recovery from the 'Liberation Day' selloff, with a +18.6% total return for the S&P 500, while in Europe the total return for the MSCI Europe ex UK Index was +9.4%. The strongest returns included South Korea, with a total return of +52.6% from the MSCI Korea Index. Global government bonds, as referenced by the FTSE World Government Bond Index (GBP Hedged) were up +2.5% and the gold price continued its ascent, up +28.1%.

From 1 June 2025, the beginning of the Company's current financial year, the investment portfolios have been managed by Investment Managers Adam Norris and Paul Green, supported by the Manager's broader EMEA Multi-Asset Solutions team (of which they are members). The previous longstanding Investment Manager, Peter Hewitt, has retired and the Board wishes him a long and happy retirement, while thanking him for his years of service.

The Investment Managers' Review follows, and it is pleasing to see that, in their first six month period, the NAV total return of both Portfolios was strong and also marginally ahead of the benchmark index. The Investment Managers have been repositioning between sectors and regions and highlights of their recent investment activity are set out in their review.

Dividends

As I referenced in the 2025 Annual Report and Financial Statements, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, it was (and remains) the Board's intention to pay four quarterly interim dividends, each of at least 1.90p per Income share so that the aggregate dividends for the financial year to 31 May 2026 will be at least 7.60p per Income share (2025: 7.60p per Income share).

To date, first and second interim dividends in respect of the year to 31 May 2026 have been announced and paid, each at a rate of 1.90p per Income share (1.85p per Income share in the corresponding periods in the year to 31 May 2025).

The minimum intended total dividend for the financial year of 7.60p per Income share represents a yield on the Income share price at 30 November 2025 of 6.2% which was materially higher than the yield of 3.2% on the FTSE All-Share Index at the same date.

Borrowing

At 30 November 2025 the Income Portfolio had total borrowings drawn down of £7 million (9.2% of gross assets), unchanged over the period, the investment of which helps to boost net income after allowing for the interest cost. The Growth Portfolio had no borrowings, also unchanged.

Management of share price premium and discount to NAV

In normal circumstances the Board aims to limit the discount to NAV at which the Company's shares might trade to not more than 5%. During the six months to 30 November 2025 the Income shares traded at an average discount to NAV of -0.4% and the Growth shares traded at an average discount of -3.5%. At 30 November 2025, the Income shares and Growth shares stood at a premium to NAV of +0.6% and +0.9% respectively.

The Company is active in issuing shares to meet demand and equally in buying back when this is appropriate. During the six months to 30 November 2025, 200,000 Income shares were bought back for treasury at an average discount of -3.6% to NAV and then subsequently resold from treasury at an average premium of +1.5% to NAV. In addition, 2,430,000 new Income shares were issued from the Company's block listing facilities at an average premium to NAV of +1.6%. 1,578,000 Growth shares were also bought back to be held in treasury at an average discount to NAV of -3.8% and 450,000 Growth shares were resold from treasury at an average premium to NAV of +1.6%.

Since the end of the period, a further 3,095,000 new Income shares have been issued and a further 765,000 Growth shares have been resold from treasury. To facilitate this demand, at the start of December 2025, the Company obtained a further block listing of 8,000,000 Income shares, which can be allotted, when there is demand. The Income shares were issued and the Growth shares resold from treasury at average premiums to NAV of 1.6% and 1.5% respectively. Much of this recent demand has come from former shareholders in European Assets Trust which underwent a corporate transaction with The European Smaller Companies Trust ('ESCT') in the autumn. Shares in ESCT are not eligible to be held through the Manager's savings plans and we welcome those investors who have decided to invest instead in CT Global Managed Portfolio Trust.

Share conversion facility

Shareholders have the opportunity to convert their Income shares into Growth shares or their Growth shares into Income shares annually subject to minimum and maximum conversion thresholds which may be reduced or increased at the discretion of the Board. On 6 November 2025 the conversion proceeded for those Shareholders who had elected to do so. The net result of those conversions was a decrease of 38,324 Income shares and an increase of 15,549 Growth shares in issue. The ability to convert without incurring capital gains tax should be an attractive facility for Shareholders and the next conversion date (subject to minimum and maximum thresholds) will be in October 2026. Details will be provided when the Company's 2026 Annual Report and Financial Statements is published in the summer.

Investment management fee

During the period, the Board and Manager agreed a reduction in the investment management fee (the 'Fee') with effect from 1 September 2025. The Fee has been reduced to 0.60% per annum of the net asset value of each portfolio of the Company (rather than 0.65% per annum of their total assets of each portfolio) and there will no longer be any charge on any assets which are invested in other investment vehicles managed by the Manager.

Board changes

Simon Longfellow stepped down as a non-executive director with effect from 31 December 2025. Simon was also the Chair of the Marketing Committee. Simon has taken up a full-time senior marketing role and as a result was not able to continue his role with the Company. The Board was very sorry to lose Simon who has been an excellent colleague with great insights contributing particularly into our marketing efforts and we wish him all the best for the future. The Board is well advanced with a recruitment process to replace him. In the interim, I have taken on the role of Chair of the Marketing Committee.

Outlook

The global economy demonstrated notable resilience throughout 2025, and we expect the coming year to be characterised by an effort to 'extend the cycle', supported by both fiscal and monetary policy measures aimed at sustaining growth at or slightly above 2025 levels. The market anticipates further interest rate cuts in the US and UK easing borrowing costs for households and corporates alike, with the possibility of an accelerated pace in the US should a more dovish Federal Reserve Chair be appointed by President Trump. Geopolitical risk is currently more elevated than for many years. Whilst US President Trump has attempted to cool regional conflicts, his 'America First' policy continues to shake up the post-World War II order.

The Board and Manager continue to believe the Portfolios comprise high class investment companies, diversified across geography and investment style and are well set to deliver future shareholder returns.

Investment Managers' Review

We are pleased to report our first half-year results for CT Global Managed Portfolio Trust as the new Investment Managers since we took over from Peter Hewitt on 1 June 2025. Peter has now retired from Columbia Threadneedle Investments, and we wish him well in his retirement.

Overall, equity markets delivered strong positive returns in the six months to the end of November 2025. Investors will recall the volatile markets of April, marked by concerns around tariffs and their impact on global economic activity.

Since then, equity markets have recovered strongly. To this end, the NAV total return of the Growth shares was +11.9% and the Income shares +12.0%. The share price total return for the Growth shares was +16.3% and the Income shares was +10.7%.

As comparators, the total return for the FTSE All-Share Index was +11.8% and for the FTSE All-Share Closed End Investments Index was +13.1%.

We are also pleased to report a busy half-year period. We, like Peter before us, are enthused for the Investment Company sector and the opportunity set in front of us. We continue to adjust the Portfolios to further represent the 'global' remit of the Company, whilst allocating to areas of the market which represent strong opportunities for future returns.

During our first period there has been an increase in turnover for both Portfolios and we have set out below our vision for the direction of the Company and how exposures were reflected across both Portfolios at 30 November 2025.

A hardware revolution

Shares in technology companies, mainly US listed, have powered market returns over the past decade. Their earnings growth has been unrivalled within global markets, with some commentators often - wrongly, so far - considering technology companies too large to continue growing at premium rates and potentially overvalued.

However, the 'law of big numbers' theory has yet to materialise, as these technology behemoths continue to grow at a premium rate to the market. Whilst the fruits of Artificial Intelligence may have yet to be adopted by the masses, the 'AI Infrastructure' spend is leading to vast amounts of cash being deployed to fund future technology growth. This build out is driven by hardware, not so much software, and those companies interwoven in the AI Infrastructure supply chain are being handsomely rewarded by investors.

Within the Growth Portfolio, we have added to Polar Capital Technology Trust (share price total return over the six-month period was +39.5%), which represented 5.6% of the Growth Portfolio's assets at the Company's half year point. Combined with Allianz Technology Trust (+34.1%), the Portfolio's weighting in global technology trusts was 9.1% at 30 November 2025.

Within the Income Portfolio we have added new infrastructure holdings Pantheon Infrastructure ('PINT') and Cordiant Digital Infrastructure ('CORD'). Whilst different in their approach, both are benefitting from the AI Infrastructure roll out from large corporations and government directives. PINT is expected to complete on its first company sale, Calpine Energy, in early 2026 at an expected multiple on invested capital of 2.8x. CORD, on the other hand, continues to grow and develop assets in Europe, announcing a partnership with the Czech Government, with an ambition to develop one of its Prague data centre sites to become one of the EU's next-generation Artificial Intelligence gigafactories. If successful, we view this as an area of strong growth for the company.

Emerging Markets - a decade to forget

Emerging Markets have endured a lost decade. Whilst emerging market economies have grown - and continue to converge on developed markets - earnings growth has stalled. In fact, earnings per share (EPS), measured in US Dollar terms, are at the same level as they were in 2015.

Yet paradoxically, outside of US equities, Asia and Emerging Markets have some of the world's most innovative companies. Chinese technology companies, much like their US counterparts, are spending ferocious amounts of cash to further develop their Artificial Intelligence capacity. At the same time, these highly profitable companies are showing signs of shareholder friendliness, such as embarking on large share buy-backs and introducing dividend policies.

Within the Growth Portfolio, we increased the combined Asia and Emerging Markets exposure from 3.4% to 13.6%. We have introduced Fidelity Emerging Markets. The company is not only exposed to a favourable environment for emerging markets, but also has the flexibility to go short of specific companies (i.e. benefit from potential share price declines). The manager has shown a strong capacity to generate extra performance from this investment technique and should continue to drive performance in volatile emerging equity markets.

Within the Income Portfolio, we increased the combined Asia and Emerging Markets exposure from 7.3% to 13.7%. We have added Invesco Asia Dragon Trust ('IAD'), which represented 2.9% of portfolio assets at the Company's half year point. IAD's managers, Fiona Yang and Ian Hargreaves, have demonstrated strong ability to generate performance in different market environments, utilising a highly stock-specific investment approach. The company pays shareholders an aggregate dividend equivalent to 4% of its prior financial year end NAV in four equal instalments. This is achieved by using the company's reserves to top up the natural income generated, allowing the managers to invest in an unconstrained manner, rather than targeting high yielding stocks per se. We additionally acquired IAD shares for the Growth Portfolio, which represented 4.9% exposure at the Company's half year point.

Pent up Private Equity value

We are excited by the pent-up value on offer within Private Equity, which has been hampered by a poor 'exit' environment - the ability for Private Equity managers to sell their companies - with potential IPO candidate companies frozen out from listing. Despite this fallow period for listed Private Equity investment companies, many portfolio companies continue to grow their earnings and are conservatively valued within net asset values. In addition, we observe the IPO market is beginning to thaw which may ignite the Private Equity flywheel once again, a strong catalyst for listed Private Equity investment companies' performance.

Within the Growth Portfolio, our largest single exposure is in Oakley Capital Investments (+13.9%), a listed Private Equity company which focuses on partnering and supporting European entrepreneurs across technology, consumer, business services and education sectors. The company has a strong long-term track record and announced in July the partial exit of a portfolio company at a 300% premium to carrying value, highlighting that in-demand companies will attract competitive prices, regardless of the 'exit' environment.

We have additionally topped up our holding in The Schiehallion Fund (+5.8%), a late-stage Private Equity investment company managed by Baillie Gifford. The company has had a tricky few years as growth investing moved sharply out of favour. However, we now see clear 'winners' of its investment approach, with some of its largest holdings, namely SpaceX and Bending Spoons, achieving valuation levels rarely found within Private Equity. We sold our entire holding in Pantheon International into share price strength.

Despite our optimism regarding Private Equity, holdings Augmentum Fintech (-18.4%) and Literacy Capital (-13.4%) were the two largest underperformers in the Growth Portfolio. On the former, the company took a large impairment on one of its previously largest holdings and the latter swung to a meaningful discount for the first time in its history post-IPO. We remain comfortable owners of both investment companies - in our view, they own relatively mature portfolios of assets. In a revitalised 'exit' environment, we believe both managers have the ability to realise strong returns from their portfolio holdings.

Within the Income Portfolio, Apax Global Alpha ('APAX') was acquired by a third-party group at a 17% discount to its net asset value. APAX had lagged the wider Private Equity sector and had, in our view, an excessively high dividend policy which would be difficult to meet if the manager could not exit portfolio holdings. We had trimmed the holding prior to the bid and subsequently sold it entirely after the share price rally, post the bid announcement and prior to completion.

A plan for UK growth

The UK equity market delivered a strong absolute return, albeit lagging other equity markets. Local UK investors long proclaim UK equities are 'cheap'. This may be true from an aggregate market price-to-earnings multiple, but in our view represents a lower growth collection of stocks versus other markets, rather than a 'UK PLC discount'.

As a result, we have reduced the overall weighting to UK equities. Within the Growth Portfolio, the allocation to UK Equity investment companies fell from 29.4% to 15.7%. We divested fully from Finsbury Growth & Income Trust, The Law Debenture Corporation, Baillie Gifford UK Growth Trust, Lowland Investment Company, Diverse Income Trust and Henderson Smaller Companies Investment Trust.

It is not obvious to us that 'cheap' markets are enough of a catalyst for performance. As a result, within the Growth Portfolio, we have introduced two new holdings in Strategic Equity Capital, managed by Gresham House's Ken Wotton, as well as Odyssean Investment Trust, managed by Stuart Widdowson and Ed Wielechowski. Both sets of managers, with different investment approaches, aim to take significant positions in their portfolio companies and engage with management teams to drive business improvement, if required. We see these highly engaged approaches as an important lever to unlock value within small and mid-sized UK companies.

Similarly, within the Income Portfolio we reduced the overall exposure to UK Equity investment companies from 40.2% to 27.1% over the six months. We fully divested from Diverse Income Trust and Henderson High Income Trust, noting the latter also contained fixed income exposure. Eagle eyed readers will notice we have retained exposure to The Law Debenture Corporation and Lowland Investment Company, where we think the investment team's focus, led by James Henderson and Laura Foll, on income stock picking remains a suitable investment approach and worthy of inclusion for this portfolio.

It is our intention to continue to further reduce our exposure to UK Equity investment companies within both the Growth Portfolio and Income Portfolio in a thoughtful and measured way, in order for shareholders to benefit from broader opportunities, such as within infrastructure or global equities.

Biotechnology recovery

Biotechnology roared higher in the first half of the Company's financial year generating significant returns. With tariff fears, drug pricing concerns and interest rates all subsiding, biotechnology stocks were some of the strongest performing in the six-month period. Merger & Acquisition announcements remain rife in the sector as pharmaceutical companies look to replenish their diminishing patent-related income streams. For context, Biotech Growth Trust (+79.0%), a holding within the Growth Portfolio, and International Biotechnology Trust (+73.7%), a holding within the Income Portfolio, were both standout performers, recovering some prior poor performance.

We have used this strength to reduce exposure, allocating to aforementioned Private Equity, technology and Emerging Markets investment companies.

Renewable Energy 'head-winds'

Renewable Energy Infrastructure investment companies Greencoat UK Wind ('UKW') (-7.7%) and The Renewables Infrastructure Group ('TRIG') (-3.6%) remained a drag on performance for the Income Portfolio. Persistently low cash generation from portfolio assets versus projections are weighing on sentiment, whilst, conversely to Private Equity, transactions are grinding to a halt, providing scant evidence of 'true' market value. Although the UK government's consultation of Renewables Obligation Certificates (ROCs), the subsidy regime which underpins many renewable energy project cash flows, has since been determined, revisions of existing contracts adds further uncertainty to the sector.

Despite the valuation uncertainties within operational assets, we introduced GCP Infrastructure ('GCP') to the Income Portfolio. GCP is a company which owns loans focused on UK infrastructure (including renewables). The company has had an extremely low default rate since its IPO 15 years ago and, in recent years, has sold assets to pay down its revolving credit facility. Despite this progress, the company's share price performance has been weak and the dividend yield is now c.10%. We believe we are being paid to wait as investors in a bond-like investment company. We await further asset disposals for it to completely pay down its revolving credit facility and return additional capital to us as shareholders.

A constructive outlook

As we look ahead to the calendar year of 2026, our outlook remains sanguine in regard to corporate profitability.

Fiscal stimulus is set to play a key role in several major economies. Japan and Germany have already announced substantial packages, while, in the United States, the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' passed earlier in 2025 is expected to deliver a meaningful boost. China is also likely to implement incremental measures to keep growth on track toward its 5% target.

We expect further solid global economic growth in 2026. US growth is likely to remain broadly in line with 2025, with upside potential from additional stimulus. The UK outlook remains subdued, with below-trend but positive growth. Overall, conditions appear supportive for another year of steady expansion which in turn should drive positive corporate earnings growth.

Tariffs remain a structural feature of the global landscape, though their form may evolve. Supply chains have adapted to the new regime, and the economic impact has been relatively contained, helped by exemptions and reductions from headline rates compared to initial fears earlier in 2025.

We approach 2026 with optimism: global growth prospects remain positive, however we note that valuations appear relatively full in certain areas. Although markets can be sensitive to large policy shifts and geopolitical surprises, our central view is that corporates can continue to demonstrate earnings growth, particularly in transformative sectors such as technology and AI Infrastructure. We remain alive to how geopolitical events can further shape the investment landscape. This is not just through heightened risks, but also how the evolving priorities of both governments and corporates can create opportunities.

We look forward to further updating investors throughout the remainder of the year and in the Annual Report.
