Net Asset Value

Pantheon Infrastructure PLC ("PINT" or the "Company"), the listed global infrastructure fund, announces that its Net Asset Value ("NAV") as at 31 March 2024 was 109.0 pence per share.

Commentary

•     NAV increased by 2.4 pence per share in the quarter, an increase of 2.3% on the NAV of 106.6 pence per share as at 31 December 2023.

•     NAV total return during the quarter, including the 2 pence per share dividend for which the shares became ex-dividend during the period, was 4.4 pence per share, or 4.1%.

•     Underlying fair value movements on the investment portfolio contributed 4.4 pence per share during the period. Performance was driven by unrealized movements across a number of the Company's investments, with notable valuation uplifts for GD Towers, Vantage Data Centers, Calpine and CyrusOne.

•     Currency movements resulted in a negative FX valuation movement on the investment portfolio, equivalent to a decrease in NAV of 0.2 pence per share. This was offset by opposing movements in the Company's NAV FX hedging instruments, contributing an increase in the NAV of 0.5 pence per share.

•     Other contributions to the movement in NAV included operating costs (-0.4 pence per share) and the NAV accretion from the Company's buyback of shares at a discount to NAV during the period (0.1 pence per share).

•     As at 31 March 2024, the Company's net assets were £512.0 million, comprising the investment portfolio valued at £492.6 million, net working capital of £13.4 million and a derivative mark-to-market value of £6.0 million. At the end of the quarter, the Company had undrawn commitments of £11.6 million and its £115 million Revolving Credit Facility was fully undrawn.

Richard Sem, Partner at Pantheon, PINT's investment manager, commented: "The strength and quality of PINT's diversified, all-weather global infrastructure portfolio continues to flow through to the NAV and underpins our continued confidence in the investment strategy looking forward. Infrastructure remains a key driver of economic growth around the world, and we expect to see ongoing demand for investment into new and existing projects. PINT is well placed to identify and capture the very best of these opportunities."
