Schroder UK Public Private Trust, which was previously led by disgraced fund manager Neil Woodford, has sold its stake in Irish biopharmaceutical company Carrick Therapeutics at a marked discount.
The fund recently sold its shareholding in Carrick and another six companies to life-science venture capital firm Rosetta Capital for a combined £52 million (€60 million). This marks an aggregate 22 per cent discount on the value of those companies since September 2020.
The fund’s stake in Carrick was valued at £18.2 million at that time. The deal has just completed with Schroder this week saying the Carrick stake “will be revalued as a result of the implications from the Rosetta transaction”.
