Commenting on the results, Sir Brian Williamson, Chairman of Electra Investment Trust, said:
�Electra has again achieved a strong net asset value growth, share price performance and substantial realisations of investments.
In the ten years to 30 September 2005, Electra achieved an 18% per annum compound rate of return on its investment portfolio, substantially in excess of the returns of the FTSE All-Share Index.
As the existing investment policy provides increasing funds for new investment, the Board believes that Electra is well positioned to continue to create shareholder value.�
