Net Asset Value as at 31 October 2019 and Investment Update

The NAV for SEQI, the specialist investor in economic infrastructure debt, increased to 104.08p from the prior month's NAV of 103.74p per share (being the 30 September cum-income NAV of 105.30p less the dividend of 1.5625p per share declared in respect of the quarter ended 30 September 2019). The changes in NAV arose primarily through:

·; Interest income net of expenses of 0.59p;

·; A decrease of 0.30p in asset valuations; and

·; Unhedged FX gains of 0.04p.

As at 31 October 2019, the Company had cash of £55.8m and outstanding drawings on its Revolving Credit Facility of £114.2m. The Company also had undrawn commitments, and four additional investments in settlement, collectively valued at £158.8m.

It had an annualised yield-to-maturity (or yield-to-worst in the case of callable bonds) of 8.3% and a weighted average life of approximately 4.0 years. Private debt investments represented 89% of the total portfolio and 73% of the portfolio comprised floating rate assets. The weighted average purchase price of the Company's investments was 94.2% of par. Investments which are pre-operational represented 15.3% of total assets.

The Company's invested portfolio remains geographically diverse with 46% located across the US, 19% in the UK, 28% in Europe, and 7% in Australia/New Zealand. Currently the Company is not investing in Portugal or Italy but has selectively invested in opportunities in Spain. The Company's pipeline of economic infrastructure debt investments remains strong and is diversified by sector, sub-sector, and jurisdiction.

At month end, approximately 100% of the Company's NAV consisted of either Sterling assets or was hedged into Sterling. The Company has adequate resources to cover the cash costs associated with its hedging activities.
