The Committee shall: consider and make recommendations to the board, to be put to shareholders for approval at the AGM, in relation to the appointment, re-appointment and removal of the company s external auditor. The committee shall oversee the selection process for a new
4 auditor and if an auditor resigns the committee shall investigate the issues leading to this and decide whether any action is required; oversee the relationship with the external auditor including (but not limited to): a) recommendations on their remuneration, whether fees for audit or non-audit services and that the level of fees is appropriate to enable an adequate audit to be conducted b) approval of their terms of engagement, including any engagement letter issued at the start of each audit and the scope of the audit c) assessing annually their independence and objectivity taking into account relevant UK professional and regulatory requirements and the relationship with the auditor as a whole, including the provision of any non-audit services d) satisfying itself that there are no relationships (such as family, employment, investment, financial or business) between the auditor and the company (other than in the ordinary course of business) e) assessing annually the qualifications, expertise and resources of the auditor and the effectiveness of the audit process review the findings of the audit with the external auditor. This shall include but not be limited to, the following a) a discussion of any major issues which arose during the audit b) any accounting and audit judgements c) levels of errors identified during the audit d) the effectiveness of the audit 6.4 Investment Trust Status, Fraud, Bribery and Other The Committee shall: review the Company s investments with particular reference to maintenance of the Company s investment trust status under S1158/9 of the Corporation Taxes Act 2010; give due consideration to laws and regulations, the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code, The AIC Code of Corporate Governance and the requirements of the UK Listing Authority s Listing Rules as appropriate; at least once a year, review its own performance, constitution and terms of reference to ensure it is operating at maximum effectiveness and recommend any changes it considers necessary to the Board for approval; be provided with appropriate and timely training, both in the form of an induction programme for new members and on an ongoing basis for all members; review the Manager s systems and controls for the prevention of bribery and receive reports on non-compliance; review the Manager s procedures for detecting fraud; and review the adequacy and security of the Manager s arrangements for its employees and contractors to raise concerns, in confidence, about possible wrongdoing in financial reporting or other matters. 6.5 Valuation The Committee should reasonably satisfy itself as to the valuation of the Company s investments individually and as a whole, having due regard to: - the general principle that investments should be reported at fair value ; - the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines (September 2009 Edition); and
5 - the requirements set out under the United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practices (UK GAAP) Listed Investments The Guidelines determine that investments listed (or traded) on recognised stock exchanges are valued at closing bid market price. Discounts should not be applied to prices quoted on an active market, unless there is some contractual legally enforceable restriction that would impact the value realised at the reporting date. However, where the Guidelines differ from the prevailing accounting standards, the latter will apply. Currently under UK GAAP and IFRS, quoted shares have to be valued at the bid market price with no discount being applied for liquidity even when a formal lock-in provision exists Unquoted Investments Draft valuations of unquoted investments are prepared by HgCapital and reviewed by the Committee. The Committee considers the valuation methodology, comparators and proposed valuations and has the opportunity to suggest that revisions are made to the valuations if deemed necessary, following which recommendations to adopt the valuations are made to the Board. Unquoted investments are valued using the following criteria: a) Unquoted assets are held at Fair Value. Initially, fair value is likely to equate to the cost of the investment unless poor performance has led to impairment in value which requires a write down (see point d), or market conditions have moved down significantly to make the original cost an inappropriate measure of Fair Value at the balance sheet date. The appropriateness of a cost based valuation (price of recent transaction) should be considered at each reporting period within the first year (i.e. before an earnings basis is adopted) in light of prevailing market conditions and the trading results of the entity. In stable market conditions with little change in the entity or the external environment, the length of period for which this methodology is likely to be appropriate will be longer than during a period of a rapidly changing environment. b) After the receipt of the first audited financial statements following initial investment, companies are valued based on the level of maintainable earnings and an appropriate earnings multiple; a multiple should be derived by reference to current market-based multiples. The aim is identify companies that are similar, in terms of risk attributes and growth prospects, to the company being valued. This is more likely to be the case where the companies are similar in terms of business activities, markets served and geography. Adjustments should be made to market multiples to pick up points of difference between the comparator and the company being valued. These points of difference should be considered and assessed by reference to the two key variables, risk and earnings growth, which underpin the earnings multiple. When considering adjustments to reported multiples, consideration should be given to the differences between liquidity of the share being valued and those on a quoted exchange. To put a framework around this process, HgCapital determine the relevant basket of comparable companies and then on a case by case basis determine the degree of relevance on a scale of 0-100% in 25% tranches. For example, a company may be directly comparable but have company specific issues that make the multiple inappropriate as it is a significant outlier to the basket. In this instance, the company would be excluded from the basket. The level of adjustment made to each comparator is subjective and requires judgement as to the appropriateness of the company having
6 considered all the factors mentioned above. A detailed ratings sheet will be provided to support each multiple used in the valuation exercise. In applying a multiple to maintainable earnings, it is important to ensure that the earnings figure can be relied upon. HgCapital would usually look to historical audited accounts for this purpose unless: (i) earnings are declining, then forecasts would be used; or (ii) using historicals would materially distort the fair value, in which case current year management accounts are used. These numbers should be adjusted for exceptionals, acquisitions and discontinued activities. c) Funds are valued on a net assets basis subject to checking that the fund manager is applying the fair value principles to their valuation process. Adjustments to the Manager s reported NAV should only be considered where there is a significant time elapsed between the reporting date of the Trust and the Fund that may give rise to the reported NAV being inappropriate due to changing market or economic conditions d) Where there is believed to be an impairment in the value of an investment, the book value of the investment should be written down to an appropriate level. This may be determined by reference to an earnings based cross check, or a Sales to EV comparison with similar businesses. HgCapital have a framework for writing down investments which applies provisions per stock line in 25% tranches to a maximum of 100%. i.e. equity first and then loan stock (including accrued income which ranks pari passu). The level of the write down needs to correlate with the resultant value from an earnings-based cross check valuation. e) Third party transaction prices may be used to value investments but consideration needs to be given to whether the price paid by a third party is wholly representative of Fair Value. Factors to consider include size of investment (i.e. is it material), whether a strategic premium was paid, whether the transaction was a forced / rescue sale and whether different rights exist to the investment. Both realised and unrealised gains and losses arising on investments are taken to capital account.
