Net Asset Value and Performance

Further to the announcements made on 20 and 24 January 2020, 13 February 2020 and 5 March 2020, the publication of the NAV per Ordinary Share has been delayed whilst the Company undertakes a valuation of certain Anaerobic Digestion ("AD") assets. The Company will announce an update once this review has been completed. It is anticipated that an announcement will be made before the end of March.

 

As at 29 February 2020, the unaudited estimated NAV per C Share1, which is not impacted by the valuation of the AD assets, was 97.90 pence.

 

The Company also announces the cumulative NAV total return2 performance for the C Share class, as at 29 February 2020, is as follows:

 

Month-to-month return

1 year return

3 year return

Return since inception

0.61%

7.52%

14.54%

14.41%

 

Dividends

On 18 March 2020 the Company announced it would be suspending the declaration of further dividend payments on both the Ordinary and C Shares until further notice in order to conserve liquidity until the impact of COVID-19 and the results of the Strategic review can be determined. This is a temporary suspension and the Company hopes to re-establish dividends in due course.

 

NAV Footnote1

The C Share NAV is quoted before deducting the 0.6042 pence per share dividend, announced on 21 February 2020 that went ex-dividend on 5 March 2020 and will be paid on 27 March 2020.

 

Performance Footnote2

The NAV total return details the change in NAV from the start of the relevant period and assumes that dividends paid to shareholders are reinvested at NAV.
