Georgia Capital PLC - Tbilisi-based investor in businesses in Georgia - Net asset value per share at the end of 2021 stands at GEL63.03, about GBP15.44, up 5.5% from GEL59.77 at the end of the third quarter and up 31% from GEL48.12 a year before. Total NAV is GEL2.88 billion, about GBP706.5 million.

Georgia Capital says the key recent event was the sale of an 80% stake in waterworks Georgia Global Utilities JSC to Spain's FCC Aqualia for USD180 million, a 30% premium to the stake's assessed value back in June of last year.
"Our key strategic priority, announced a year ago, was to dispose of one of our large portfolio companies, and I am delighted that, in what continues to be a challenging global environment, we have successfully completed the sale of the group's water utility business to a high-quality international strategic investor, FCC Aqualia," says Chair & Chief Executive Officer Irakli Gilauri.
