Molten Ventures Reports FY25 Results with Strong Exits and Strategic Focus

Molten Ventures Plc, a venture capital firm, published its final results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025. The firm maintained a solid gross portfolio value of £1,367 million despite a slight decrease from the previous year. Notably, Molten generated £135 million in cash proceeds from a series of profitable exits, including companies like M-Files, Graphcore, and Endomag. The average exit delivered a 1.8x multiple on invested capital.

Investment activities for the year included a strategic pivot towards Series A and B funding rounds, deemed areas of strength for Molten. The firm invested £73 million in opportunities such as Deciphex and OneData. Molten also exited its listing on Euronext Dublin to concentrate operations on the London Stock Exchange, thus enhancing compliance and reducing costs.

CEO Ben Wilkinson emphasized the rise of AI and legislative changes as opportunities, hopeful that they will bridge gaps in scaling European tech businesses. Molten's disciplined capital allocation and focus on sustainable revenue growth remain central to its strategy amid market volatility.
