Riverstone Credit Opportunities Income
Quarterly Update
Full Deployment Sustained Resulting In Robust Q1 Performance
Riverstone Credit Opportunities Income ("RCOI" or the "Company"), the LSE-listed energy infrastructure and energy-transition credit investor, is pleased to announce a strong portfolio performance for the quarter from 1 January to 31 March 2023, inclusive of updated quarterly unaudited fair market valuations.
Unaudited Net Asset Value
As of 31 March 2023, the unaudited net asset value per Ordinary Share, including net revenue for the quarter ended 31 March, was broadly stable at $1.06 ($1.08: 31 December 2022). This slight reduction was principally due to a movement in the valuation of the warrants related to a loan that was previously repaid.
Portfolio Summary and Key Performance Indicators
· Portfolio of 100% floating rate, short duration, senior secured loans supporting RCOI's ambition to deliver annual returns to shareholders of 8-10% whilst supporting companies engaged in supporting the energy transition
· 34.3% NAV total return5 since IPO in May 2019 (33.7% at 31 December 2022)
· 25.6 cents in dividends paid since inception6
Portfolio Update
· Against a backdrop of strong energy market performance, the global focus on de-carbonisation and the Company's unique focus on short duration lending, the Company remains extremely well positioned in the current environment. Further the re-balancing of the portfolio to accredited energy-transition focused investments through green or sustainability linked structures is now complete.
· Based on the current portfolio commitments, as well as the addition of the revolving credit facility in Q4 2022, the Company is nearly fully invested today.
Reuben Jeffery III, Chairman of RCOI, commented:
"The RCOI portfolio performed robustly in Q1 2023, and I believe the Company is well-positioned to continue to provide shareholders with attractive returns from its portfolio as well as through new senior secured investments from the considerable pipeline of opportunities currently progressing through due diligence. Underlying rates are as high as they've been in our history, and now with the Company's capital fully deployed, we expect our shareholders to benefit from the increased earnings power of the portfolio in this attractive environment.
Since launch in May 2019, a period that has included volatile conditions for equity investors and the energy sector, we are pleased that the Company has delivered a total NAV return5 of 34.3% (33.7% at 31 December 2022) including 25.6 cents per share in dividend distributions6."
Christopher Abbate and Jamie Brodsky, Co-Founders of Riverstone Credit, the investment adviser, added:
"RCOI's portfolio comprises Green and Sustainability-Linked loans with stable cash income and quality assets. The increase in rates over the end of 2023 continues to result in higher coupons for our portfolio, which consists of over 95% floating rate investments. We are pleased to have maintained near full deployment and we are actively exploring an attractive and diverse pipeline of opportunities for refinancing events."
