A clear explanation. Thanks. By atbest
10:00 15/11/2010	Re: coverage vs NAV
Subject to the company overall having adequate assets, the NAV of the zeros increases over time based on a pre-determined basis (i.e. from 29p on 3-Nov-09 to 40.5p on 30-Oct-14). The capital raised by the zeros is pooled with the capital raised from other classes of share for the purpose on investing. However, the zeros have first call on the assets of the company at maturity. So at 30-Oct-14 the 40.5p per zero share is is satisfied before any capital payments to other classes of share. The EXISTING assets of the company are CURRENTLY adequate to cover the 40.5p per share requirement at 30-Oct-14 1.3 times. So even if the asset value were to drop 23% from the current levels, the zeros will still be paid out at 40.5 per share in 2014. By steveggiles

I recently looked at interim accounts for JSSZ. I wonder if you might explain how it is that net asset value of the company is reported at 30 June 2010 as being 29.75p, whilst the the repayment entitlement of 40.5p on the planned winding up date of 30 October 2014 is stated to be covered 1.3 times at 30 April 2010. Presumably these statements do not contradict one another, or they would not have been made. In what sense is the planned repayment of 40.5p covered 1.3 times? I refer to the statement within the Accounts which reads as follows: "A holder of New Zero Dividend Preference shares had an initial capital entitlement of 29.0p per share on 3 November 2009. At reorganisation, the Company’s capital structure was designed to provide the New Zero Dividend Preference shareholders with a pre-determined capital entitlement of 40.5p per Zero Dividend Preference share on 30 October 2014. At 30 April 2010 this entitlement amounted to 29.95p per share. The repayment entitlement of 40.5p per New Zero Dividend Preference share at the planned winding up date was covered 1.3 times at 30 April 2010 and the Gross Redemption Yield, the annualised return on the market price, was 7.05 per cent. per annum as at that date."
