APR Energy ceases operations in Yemen 

Also announces that its South Pacific contract will terminate early 

APR Energy plc (LSE: APR), a global leader in fast-track power solutions, announces that it has ceased operations in Yemen due to escalating conflict in the country. APR Energy has operated in Yemen since 2012, providing 60MW of power capacity.

The decision to proactively terminate our contract in Yemen has been made with much careful consideration and follows a detailed assessment of the well-publicised conflict in the country. The safety of our people is always APR Energy's number one priority, and as such, the Management team believes that this decision is in the best long-term interest of our people, company and shareholders. 

APR Energy also announces today that its customer in the South Pacific has provided notice to terminate its 60MW contract in Q3 2015, three months earlier than the original termination date. The customer will no longer need the additional generation capacity due to progress it has made on its permanent generation solution.
