Whilst the resilience in our investee companies’ business models has been pleasing, we are conscious that the recovery is likely to be prolonged and this may well have an impact on some of our investments as global furlough schemes wind down and the full impact of Covid-19 is felt by these relevant economies. However, we are confident that our investments are, in the long run, well placed to create additional value.”Somers’ largest investment as of the end of June, was $218.3 million in Resimac Group. It also has a $70 million investment in Bermuda Commercial Bank, a $66.2 million investment in Waverton Investment Management Group, and a $32.1 million investment in PCF Group plc.

The company continues to work towards delivering a transaction which will benefit all of Somers and BCB’s stakeholders and we look forward to updating Somers’ shareholders in due course.”During the quarter, Somers recorded a $21.4 million gain on its investment portfolio. Its total assets increased to $446.6 million, a rise of $23 million since the end of September.
