Net Asset Value and Dividend

JOHN LAING ENVIRONMENTAL ASSETS GROUP LIMITED

("JLEN" or the "Company")

Net Asset Value and Dividend announcement

JLEN, the listed environmental infrastructure fund, announces its unaudited Net Asset Value ("NAV") as at 30 June 2016 and interim dividend for the quarter ended on that date.

The Company's unaudited NAV as at 30 June 2016 was £252.9 million or 97.1 pence per share, compared to £216.9 million or 96.7 pence per share as at 31 March 2016.

Short term electricity prices increased over the June quarter leading to an improvement in the NAV calculations for the period. This short term improvement is offset by a slight reduction in forecasts for longer term energy prices from an established market consultant.

Availability across the environmental processing assets and the renewables portfolio during the last quarter has generally been good, with some technical issues experienced at Branden solar now resolved. Generation for the renewables portfolio during the quarter was below budget owing to both low wind resource and irradiation levels being experienced. The waste management and wastewater treatment facilities were at or ahead of budgeted volumes. 

The Company also announces a quarterly interim dividend of 1.54 pence per share for the period from 1 April 2016 to 30 June 2016, in line with the dividend target set out in the 2016 Annual Report.
