8 August 2017

 

Bluefield Solar Income Fund Limited

('Bluefield Solar' or the 'Company')

 

Third Interim Dividend Announcement

 

Bluefield Solar (LON:BSIF), a sterling income fund that invests in UK-based solar assets, is pleased to announce a third interim dividend for the financial year ending 30 June 2017 (the 'Third Interim Dividend'). Unless otherwise noted herein, the information provided in this announcement and any asset valuations underlying such information is unaudited.

 

The Third Interim Dividend of 1.5 pence per Ordinary Share will be payable to Shareholders on the register as at 18 August 2017 with an associated ex-dividend date of 17 August 2017 and a payment date of 8 September 2017. This is the same as the Third Interim Dividend of 1.5 pence per Ordinary Share for the financial year ended 30 June 2016.

 

Upon payment of the Third Interim Dividend, the total interim dividends paid to Shareholders for the Financial Year will be 5.75 pence per Ordinary Share, which is unchanged from the total dividends in the same period for the financial year ended 30 June 2016. A final dividend for the financial year ending 30 June 2017 will be declared in conjunction with the publication of the Company's annual report and consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending 30 June 2017 (the 'Financial Statements'), expected to be published on 18 September 2017.

 

Bluefield Solar and its Board of Directors continue to target dividends growing by RPI from a 7.07pence per Ordinary Share level for the financial year ending 30 June 2016, which resulted in a minimum of 7.18 pence per Ordinary Share for the financial year ending 30 June 2017, which the Company is expecting to meet or exceed, with the intention of this rising annually with RPI thereafter.

 

Commenting on the Third Interim Dividend, John Rennocks, Chairman of Bluefield Solar, said: "For the fourth year since our IPO we continue to deliver highly attractive income, largely non-correlated to traditional markets. This is the very essence of Bluefield Solar. A sterling income product delivering long-term and sustainable dividends for our Shareholders."
