  3. Tetragon has engaged, and may continue to engage, in share repurchases in the market from time to time. Such purchases may, at appropriate price levels below NAV, represent an attractive use of Tetragon’s excess cash and an efficient means to return such cash to shareholders. Any decision to engage in share repurchases will be made by the investment manager, upon consideration of relevant factors, and will be subject to, among other things, applicable law and profits at the time. Tetragon also continues to explore other methods of improving the liquidity of its shares. Cumulative dividends paid includes the cash and stock dividends paid to shareholders, but excludes dividends declared on shares held in escrow.

  5. NAV per share total return (NAV Total Return) to 31 January 2024, since Tetragon’s initial public offering in April 2007. NAV Total Return is determined in accordance with the “NAV total return performance” calculation as set forth on the Association of Investment Companies (AIC) website. Tetragon’s NAV Total Return is determined for any period by calculating, as a percentage return on the Fully Diluted NAV per Share (NAV per share) at the start of such period, (i) the change in NAV per share over such period, plus (ii) the aggregate amount of any dividends per share paid during such period, with any dividend deemed reinvested at the NAV per share at the month end date closest to the applicable ex-dividend date (i.e. so that the amount of any dividend is increased or decreased by the same percentage increase or decrease in NAV per share from such ex-dividend date through to the end of the applicable period). NAV per share is calculated as Net Assets divided by Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding. Please refer to Figure 12 of the most recent financial report for further details.

  8. Tetragon seeks to return value to its shareholders, including through dividends and share repurchases. Decisions with respect to declaration of dividends and share repurchases may be informed by a variety of considerations, including (i) the expected sustainability of the company’s cash generation capacity in the short and medium term, (ii) the current and anticipated performance of the company, (iii) the current and anticipated operating and economic environment, (iv) other potential uses of cash ranging from preservation of the company’s investments and financial position to other investment opportunities and (v) Tetragon’s share price. Cumulative dividends paid includes the cash and stock dividends paid to shareholders, but excludes dividends declared on shares held in escrow.

The “Annual Average Since IPO” figure includes the current year.
