JLEN ENVIRONMENTAL ASSETS GROUP LIMITED

("JLEN" or the "Company")

Net Asset Value and Dividend Announcement

Net Asset Value

JLEN, the listed environmental infrastructure fund, announces that its unaudited Net Asset Value as at 31 March 2020 is £533.0 million (97.5 pence per share), a decrease of 4.3 pence per share since the last published NAV as at 31 December 2019, predominantly due to a downward revision in power price forecasts as a result of the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and the recognition of the reversal of the proposed decrease in the rate of Corporation Tax.

Dividend

The Company also announces a quarterly interim dividend of 1.665 pence per share for the period from 1 January 2020 to 31 March 2020.

Together with the interim dividends paid during the financial year to date of 4.995 pence per share, the Company will have paid total dividends of 6.66p pence per share in respect of the year ended 31 March 2020, in line with the dividend target set out in the 2019 Annual Report.

The Company also announces an increase in the target dividend for the upcoming financial year to 6.76 pence per share for the financial year to 31 March 2021.

Dividend Policy

The Company has sought to pay shareholders a sustainable dividend that increases progressively in line with inflation, subject to market conditions and outlook. After careful consideration, and in light of a weak outlook for power prices exacerbated further by the Covid emergency, the Board has decided that it is prudent now to change the dividend policy for future periods to break the explicit link with inflation. For periods after 31 March 2021, the Company intends to follow a progressive dividend policy.

Dividend Timetable

Ex-dividend date 4 June 2020

Record date 5 June 2020

Payment date 26 June 2020

The Company will announce its audited results for the year ended 31 March 2020 on 11 June 2020. There will be a webinar for financial analysts at 10:00 a.m. (UK time) on the day of results hosted by Chris Holmes and Chris Tanner, Co-lead Investment Advisers to JLEN. To register for the event, please contact Newgate Communications on +44 (0)20 3757 6880 or by email at JLEN@newgatecomms.com.
