Unaudited 31 March 2017 NAV & Interim Dividend Announcement

Bluefield Solar Income Fund Limited (LON: BSIF) (the "Company") announces its second interim dividend in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2017 (the "Current Financial Year")and its net asset value ("NAV") as at 31 March, 2017. Unless otherwise noted herein, the information provided in this announcement is unaudited.

The Company is declaring an unchanged second interim dividend in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2017 of 1 penny per Ordinary share (the "Dividend"). The Dividend is to be paid on 9 June, 2017 to shareholders on the register as at 19 May 2017 with an associated ex-dividend date of 18 May, 2017. Including the Dividend, total dividends paid or announced in the current financial year are 4.25 pence per Ordinary share and are in line with the dividends paid for the same period during the financial year ended 30 June 2016.. The Company can confirm that it intends to meet or exceed its target dividend of 7.18 pence per Ordinary share in respect of the current financial year, with the intention of this target rising annually with RPI thereafter.

The Company's NAV at 31 March 2017 was £385.5 million, or 104.26 pence per Ordinary Share, compared to the NAV at 31 December 2016 of £388.5 million, or 105.07 pence per Ordinary Share. The change in NAV is due to the adoption of the most recent power curves from the Company's two independent power forecasters, whose forecasts have been blended on a 50/50 basis. All other core assumptions have remained consistent with the NAV issued in the Company's interim financial statements for the period ending 31 December, 2016.

John Rennocks, the Chairman of the Company, said, "The Company is on target, for the third year running, to deliver dividends at least in line with our target of 7.18 pence per share for our current financial year, thereby continuing to provide our shareholders with attractive levels of income. These are supported by low cost, fully amortising, long term financing and a low operating cost base".
