OREANDA-NEWS. After the clarification of shareholder positions, the Board of Directors of New Value AG can concentrate again on the implementation of its harvesting strategy. In the fiscal year 2014/15 talks with potential buyers of portfolio companies were started. These talks continue during the financial year 2015/16. Intensive discussions are also being held with the D&O-insurance of the former Directors to enforce New Value's claim for damages. Since the profits and losses of venture capital equity investments and loans balanced each other, the loss of the fiscal year 2014/15 consists mainly of the operating expenses.

The Net Asset Value (NAV) of New Value AG as per March 31, 2015 decreased to CHF 8.55 million (previous year CHF 9.15 million). The NAV per share decreased accordingly from CHF 2.93 at the beginning of the period to CHF 2.63.
