Our focus is on ordsprog

Our focus is on increasing pre-tax margins and returns on capital in our core car and truck rental operations.

With good returns on their lettings businesses and strong levels of capital appreciation over the past year, landlords continue to benefit from good overall returns — taking into account both rental income and capital appreciation. Overall returns have now reached 22%, up from 21% last month and a low of 18% in April this year.

Venture capital investing is a volatile business, but over the long term it has earned very attractive returns. We have been in the venture capital business for more than 35 years.

You would expect the deal flow to increase over time because our capital base is increasing and our staff numbers are increasing.
