JPMorgan Mid Cap Investment Trust plc. Half Year Report & Accounts 2011 1 Chairman’s Statement

Performance After your Company delivered a 30% return to shareholders in the 12 months to 30th June 2011, stock markets sold off aggressively in the first two months of this review period as the continuing financial instability in the Eurozone and political wrangling in Washington undermined investor sentiment. In these two months alone the Company’s benchmark index, the FTSE 250 (excluding investment trusts) fell by over 11%. The Company outperformed over the full six month period under review with the benchmark index falling by 14.6% on a total return basis, whilst the Company’s total return on net assets faired better at –12.8%. The Company’s return to shareholders (share price and net dividend) was –13.9%, reflecting a slight widening of the Company’s discount to 17.0%.

Revenue and Dividends Net revenue after taxation for the six months to 31st December 2011 was £1,756,000 (2010: £1,233,000) and earnings per share, calculated on the average weekly number of shares in issue, were 7.07p (2010: 4.92p). This is an encouraging improvement in net revenue from last year, which has been as a result of an improvement in the growth of dividends paid by the underlying companies in the portfolio and the receipt of some special dividends over the period. Furthermore in the second half of the financial year there will be a reduction in the Company’s interest payments, following the repayment of the Company’s debenture in December 2011. The Board has therefore decided to maintain the interim dividend at 5.5p (2010: 5.5p) again this year. The Board will give careful consideration to the level of the final dividend over the coming months having regard to the growth in dividends in the Company’s portfolio and in its future earnings. The interim dividend will be paid on 5th April 2012 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 9th March 2012.

Loan Facilities and Gearing The Company has two £5 million loan facilities with ING Bank, one expiring in July 2012 and one expiring in July 2014. On 2nd December 2011, the Company redeemed its £9.5 million debenture and this will shortly be replaced with a 3 year £15 million loan facility with Scotiabank. Such facilities give the Manager the ability to gear tactically. The Board of Directors sets the overall gearing guidelines and reviews these at each meeting; gearing changes between meetings may be undertaken after consultation with the Board. At the half year, gearing was 102.0% and at the time of writing the Company is just over 104% geared.

Share Buybacks During the period the Company repurchased 225,400 shares into Treasury and 146,158 for cancellation at an average discount to net asset value of 16.9%. The Board’s objective remains to use the share repurchase authority to assist in managing any imbalance between supply and demand for the Company’s shares, thereby reducing the volatility of the discount. The Board regularly reviews the level of discount at which the Company will repurchase its shares for cancellation. The total

2 JPMorgan Mid Cap Investment Trust plc. Half Year Report & Accounts 2011 number of ordinary shares held in Treasury as at the period end was 1,400,900. The Company will only repurchase shares at a discount to their prevailing net asset value, and issue shares when they trade at a premium to their net asset value, so as not to prejudice existing shareholders.

Prospects Eurozone uncertainties continue and the UK economy is in the early stages of a period of deleveraging which may take several years to complete. Consequently the economic growth rate may therefore be lower than in the past and the degree of volatility around this trend somewhat higher given the UK’s sensitivity to external shocks. It is encouraging, however, that the US economy is showing signs of recovery. Interest rates everywhere also are expected to remain low, which is a helpful backdrop to equity markets and equities could become the preferred asset class once again. Valuations are the key and here in the UK they are not overly demanding. Corporate earnings and dividends are exceeding expectations. Our investment managers continue to select individual companies that they believe have solid fundamentals and growth prospects, which should reward investors over the coming years.

JPMorgan Mid Cap Investment Trust plc. Half Year Report & Accounts 2011 3 Investment Managers’ Report

Performance and Market Background The Company’s benchmark, the FTSE 250 (excluding Investment Trusts) fell by 14.6% on a total return basis over the six months under review. This compares with a –12.8% return on the net asset value of the Company. As stock markets fell and liquidity reduced the Company’s discount widened from 16.2% to 17.0% resulting in a –13.9% return to shareholders. After a strong start to the calendar year stock markets globally sold off sharply in July and August as investors priced in reduced growth prospects for the global economy. The failure to resolve, or for politicians at least to articulate a credible plan to address, Jeremy Wells Europe’s Sovereign debt crisis also weighed heavily on investor sentiment. The high level of macro economic uncertainty meant that we kept gearing within the portfolio at low levels throughout the first half of the Company’s year.

Portfolio Despite the difficult consumer backdrop the portfolio is overweight in the consumer services and goods sectors, mainly due to our holdings in the bus and rail stocks and selected pub companies. We believe valuations already reflect the challenging trading conditions and the majority of our holdings in this sector have reported resilient trading over the last few months. The portfolio is underweight in the basic materials sector which includes chemical and mining stocks. We believe many of Christopher Llewelyn these stocks will find trading tough against a backdrop of slowing global growth. Cash received from the bids for Charter and Northumbrian Water was reinvested in new positions in stocks such as IG Index (the spread betting company), Wood Group (the international energy services company) and Millennium & Copthorne (an international hotel operator). Notable sales over the six month period included on its promotion to the FTSE 100 and mining stocks such as Hochschild and Kenmare.

Outlook Investors do not like uncertainty and the inability of politicians to present a comprehensive and decisive plan to resolve Europe’s sovereign debt crisis has weighed on markets and adversely impacted growth. Sentiment has swung wildly from hope of a resolution to complete despair as yet another European Summit failed to result in definitive action. Until this political stalemate is resolved equity markets will remain volatile and are unlikely to make significant progress. We take comfort, however, from the reasonable valuations of many mid cap stocks, many of which have strong balance sheets and also are trading well.
