PANTHEON INTERNATIONAL PLC

RENEWAL OF CREDIT FACILITY

Pantheon International Plc ("PIP" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has agreed a new £175m multi-currency revolving credit facility agreement ("Loan Facility"), arranged by Lloyds Bank and NatWest Markets. This replaces the £150m loan facility agreement which was due to expire in November 2018.

The new £175m four-year Loan Facility has been redenominated using current exchange rates to $163.0m and €59.8m. The terms of the new facility are materially the same as those of the existing facility but will expire in June 2022 with an option after one year to extend, by agreement, the maturity date by another year. 

PIP's mature portfolio, which at the half-year end of 30 November 2017 was reported to have an average fund vintage maturity of 5.8 years, is in a cash generative phase. The Company expects to continue to finance its new investments and meet its unfunded commitments, amounting to £436m as at 30 April 2018, principally from internally generated cash resources. As at 30 April 2018, PIP had available cash balances of £144m. Therefore, based on current exchange rates, PIP's total liquid financial resources, taking into account the terms of the new Loan Facility and 30 April 2018 available cash balances, are equivalent to £319m.

The new Loan Facility provides a margin of additional assurance that the Company has the ability to finance its unfunded commitments in the future.
