Pantheon International Plc

("PIP" or the "Company")

Private Placement Debt Issue

The Company announces that it has agreed a private placement of $150m (£118m* equivalent) of loan notes ("the Notes"). The Notes have been structured over different maturities of 5, 7 and 10 years, resulting in a weighted average maturity of 6.9 years. The Notes were three times oversubscribed at the pricing point and purchased by five North American institutional investors. When considered alongside the existing £500m equivalent multi-currency revolving credit facility ("Loan Facility"), the issuance of the Notes means that PIP now has access to an even more diverse supply of liquidity from high quality counterparties.

As at 11 January 2024, the Company had £20m of net available cash and drawings of £136m under the Loan Facility. Proceeds from the issuance of the Notes will be used to partially repay and convert these drawings into longer term funding at a blended US Dollar coupon of 6.4945%. This blended coupon is lower than the all-in interest cost currently payable on the Loan Facility. Following the issuance of the Notes, PIP's net debt to NAV will remain conservative and unchanged at 5%. The Company expects to finance its new investments and meet its unfunded commitments principally from the cash that continues to be generated by the Company's portfolio and from short-term utilisations under the Loan Facility.

The funding date of the Notes is expected to be 1 February 2024, subject to customary closing conditions being satisfied.

John Singer CBE, Chair of PIP, commented: "We are delighted to have completed this issuance of loan notes which further optimise PIP's capital structure. They provide further underpinning of our investment reallocation strategy as we aim to capture value and improve returns for our shareholders over the long term."
