INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

For the quarter ended 30 June 2026

Gresham House Income & Growth 2 VCT plc ("GHV2") presents an Interim Management Statement for the quarter ended 30 June 2026. The statement also includes relevant financial information between the end of the period and the date of this statement.

NET ASSET VALUE AND TOTAL RETURN PER SHARE

	At 30 June 2026 (unaudited)	At 31 March 2026 (unaudited)
Net assets attributable to shareholders	£179.48 million	£160.80 million
Shares in issue	370,100,611	323,148,072
Net asset value (NAV) per share	48.50 p	49.76 p
Cumulative dividends paid	176.30 p	174.30 p
Cumulative Total return (net asset value basis) per share since inception	224.80 p	224.06 p

The NAV per share has decreased by 1.26 pence in the quarter. This decrease was principally due to a dividend payment of 2.00 pence per share paid on 10 April 2026 which was partially offset by an increase in the unrealised valuation of the portfolio. Adjusting for the dividend payment, on a total return basis, the NAV per share increased by 0.74 pence, or 1.5% during the quarter.
