Net Asset Value as at 31 October 2017 and Investment Update

Ordinary Share update

SEQI's NAV decreased to 100.75p (ex-dividend) per share from 101.24p (cum dividend) per share on 31 October 2017 which arose primarily through:

· Interest income net of expenses of 0.53p;

· An increase of 0.50p in asset valuations;

· A decrease of 0.03p from FX movements; and

· A dividend payable of 1.50p.

During October, the Company's investment activities resulted in the total invested portfolio of 86.1% of the Company's NAV, with an additional £78.9m either traded but not settled or undrawn commitments. The total amount invested and committed represents 96.6% of the Company's NAV. The Company had gross leverage of £40m representing c.5.3% of NAV.

The portfolio held 33 private debt investments and 20 infrastructure bonds for a total of 53 investments that covered 8 sectors and 24 subsectors, and are collectively valued at £655.8m (incl. accrued interest). The annualised yield-to-maturity (or yield-to-worst in the case of callable bonds) was 7.8% and the acquired portfolio had a weighted average life of approximately 4.7 years. Private debt investments represented 71% of the Company's investments. The weighted average purchase price of the Company's acquired investments was c.94.9% of par. Investments which are pre-operational represent 15.8% of total assets.

 As of the 31st October 2017, approximately 92% of 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. Each of its FX hedge providers has credit lines to the Company which means that the margin calls on the hedge portfolio have historically been modest.

Approximately 54% of the invested portfolio comprises floating rate assets, with only two LIBOR floors above current LIBOR levels (EUR). As such, the portfolio's yield is likely to rise over time as LIBOR increases.

The Company's settled investment activities during October include:

· A $21.7m direct origination to Sunrun, a residential solar portfolio; and

· An incremental £5.6m strip of bonds for Theatre (Hospitals) plc, which finances operating hospitals in the UK.

Additionally, the Company sold its $19.3m position of Longview Power and the £38.0m investment in AP Wireless repaid in full on its maturity date.
