COVID-19 operational impact statement

LendInvest Limited, the ultimate holding company of LendInvest Secured Income plc, together "LendInvest", have been monitoring the ongoing and rapid evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic closely. So far, there has been no impact on LendInvest's lending, servicing or financial position from COVID-19.

All of our London-based staff are working remotely. As a long-established, technology-driven company operating with cloud-based infrastructure, we are fully capable of working remotely and also remaining 'open for business', not only as a team but with all of our third-party service providers too. Our customers are able to communicate with us as usual and should experience no difference in the speed and quality of service they typically receive from us. We have been liaising with our service providers and suppliers and, at this stage, we are operating as normal.

Whilst there has not been an impact on LendInvest's lending, servicing or financial position from COVID-19, we are continually and closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on our business, including from business continuity, operational risk and infrastructure, disruption impact, use of third party service providers and communications perspectives. Given the impact that the pandemic is having on the general UK population, we expect that there may be an impact on our business and those we work with (landlords, tenants and/or service providers etc) in the future, and are continuing with our contingency planning to mitigate the effects.

This document contains statements that are, or may be deemed to be, 'forward-looking statements' with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company or of LendInvest Limited (or its group) and certain of the plans and objectives of the Company, LendInvest Limited and its group with respect to these items. Forward-looking statements are sometimes, but not always, identified by their use of a date in the future or such words as 'anticipates', 'aims', 'due', 'could', 'may', 'will', 'would', 'should', 'expects', 'believes', 'intends', 'plans', 'projects', 'potential', 'reasonably possible', 'targets', 'goal', 'estimates' or words with a similar meaning, and, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. Any forward-looking statements in this document are based on the current expectations of the Company, LendInvest Limited and its group (as applicable) and, by their very nature, forward-looking statements are inherently unpredictable, speculative and involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and no assurances can be given that the forward-looking statements in this document will be realised. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, LendInvest Limited and its group, that could cause actual results, performance and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: the Risk Factors disclosed in the Company's Base Prospectus dated 19 October 2018 (which have not been updated since the date of its publication); changes in the economies and markets in which the group operates; changes in the regulatory and competition frameworks in which the group operates; the impact of legal or other proceedings against or which affect the group; and changes in interest and exchange rates.

All written or verbal forward-looking statements made in this document or made subsequently, which are attributable to the Company, LendInvest Limited or any other member of the group or persons acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the factors referred to above. No assurances can be given that the forward-looking statements in this document will be realised. This document speaks as at the date of publication. Save as required by applicable laws and regulations, none of the Company, LendInvest Limited or any member of its group intends to update any forward-looking statements and does not undertake any obligation to do so. Past performance of securities of the Company cannot be relied upon as a guide to the future performance of securities of the Company. Nothing in this document should be regarded as a profit forecast.
