Interim Results
The Company announces its interim results for the six months from 1 January 2017 to 30 June 2017. A copy of this announcement will shortly be available for inspection at www.eihplc.co.uk.
Chairman's Statement
The Company made a profit of US$0.6m for the six month period to 30 June 2017 (six month period to 30 June 2016: loss US$0.5m), and therefore earnings per share for the six month period to 30 June 2017 was 0.92 cents (six month period to 30 June 2016: loss per share 0.85 cents). The reason for the profit generated in the current period is due to the US$0.8m increase in fair value of the Company's investment in Evolvence India Fund PCC.
The unaudited net assets of the Company as at 30 June 2017 were valued at US$25.9m and therefore net asset value ("NAV") per share at that date was 40.2 cents based on 64,500,002 ordinary shares in issue (31 December 2016 NAV per share: 43.3 cents).
During the period under review, on 21 February 2017, the Company made a capital distribution of 4 cents per share to shareholders of the Company registered as at 17 February 2017, equivalent to approximately US$2.58m.
While the NAV per share decreased by 7.2% in the period under review, after adjusting for the capital distribution of 4.0 cents per share made in February 2017, the Company's NAV rose by 2.1% in the period.
The Company has separately announced today that it intends to make a further capital distribution of 1.5 cents per share to shareholders of the Company registered as at 20 October 2017, equivalent to approximately US$0.97m.
Total operating costs during the period were US$0.23m, or 1.3% below the comparable prior year figure. In addition, the Company paid certain annual management fees and expenses to Evolvence India Fund PCC ("EIF") in respect of its commitments. These costs are embedded in the capital account of EIF and do not appear in the Company's statement of comprehensive income.
The Company's investment portfolio comprises the following (based on unaudited values as at 30 June 2017):

Further details on the Company's investment portfolio are set out below and in Note 5 to the interim financial statements.
EIF
As at 30 June 2017 the Company had US$18.2m invested in EIF (capital called less refund capital contributions), equivalent to 28.1 cents per share. At the reporting date the Fair Value (unaudited) of the Company's investment in EIF was US$19.2m, equivalent to 29.8 cents per share, representing a 1.06 x multiple over cost. EIF is now fully drawn down.
In local currency terms, the S&P BSE SENSEX Indian stock market index advanced by 16.1% during the period in review. It is also noted that the Indian Rupee ("INR") strengthened by 5.1% in value against the US Dollar during the period in review.
Against this backdrop EIF's underlying private equity funds performed reasonably such that on the basis of beginning and end period values, and adjusting for drawdowns and distributions made during the period, the fair value of EIF's underlying funds increased by approximately 7.8% in US Dollar terms, while their value increased by approximately 2.6% in INR terms. On the same basis of measurement, the value of EIF's direct investments increased by approximately 1.0% in US Dollar terms, while in INR terms a decrease of approximately 3.9% was experienced.
EIF's private equity fund exposure is weighted towards funds with vintages of 2006 and later. The four funds of these vintages comprise 76.8% of EIF's private equity fund weighting. The remaining six funds, with a 23.2% weighting, are all 2004 and 2005 vintages. EIF's three largest funds constitute 73.0% of EIF's private equity fund weighting. These funds are Jacob Ballas India Fund III (Growth / PIPE category), JMF India Fund I (Growth category) and HI-REF International LLC (Real Estate category). The majority of EIF's ten underlying private equity funds have fully drawn down their committed capital from EIF, and EIF's remaining commitments are concentrated in one fund, HI-REF International LLC Fund. During the period under review, EIF received net distributions from all except three of its funds, while drawdowns were extremely limited.
The Directors have reviewed certain underlying financial information provided to us by EIF's Investment Manager and we remain confident that as EIF's underlying portfolio matures and further realisations are achieved, further cash distributions will be received by the Company.
EILSF Co-invest I / Gland Pharma Limited ("Gland")
At the beginning of the period under review and calculated on a "look through" basis, the Company retained an approximate US$2.0m interest in EILSF Co-invest I (held through EIF Co Invest X and EIF) representing its share of the Gland proceeds retained to address any potential contingencies. The final distribution amounting to US$1.4m comprising largely of the Company's share of its interest in EILSF Co-invest I occurred in January 2017.
RSB Group ("RSB")
RSB is a large automotive components group based in Pune with a multi-product portfolio comprising of propeller shafts, gears, axles, machined engine components, trailers and construction equipment parts. The Company's direct investment in RSB is held through EIF Co Invest VII. The shareholders in EIF Co Invest VII are the Company and EIF, which invested US$7.0m and US$10.0m respectively, for a total investment of US$17.0m. No fees are payable on the Company's investment in EIF Co Invest VII, while the Company's indirect investment in RSB (through its interest in EIF) attracts standard management and carried interest fee arrangements. Through the above arrangements, and on a look-through basis, the Company has a total of US$6.9m invested in RSB (at cost) compared to the US$7.0m invested in RSB through EIF Co Invest VII.
Through the above arrangements, and on a look-through basis, the fair value of the Company's total interest in RSB is 10.7 cents per share; while the fair value of the Company's direct interest in RSB (held through EIF Co Invest VII) is 8.5 cents per share. These values represent a 0.8 times multiple over cost. The Fair Value of the Company's interest in RSB is based on a valuation performed by EIF's investment manager.

Table 2 extracts the Company's "look through" interest in RSB (from EIF) and adds it to the Company's direct interest in RSB (held by EIF Co Invest VII). On this basis, 28.0% of the Company's Financial Assets at Fair Value (US$6.9m, equivalent to 10.7 cents per share), is accounted for by its interest in RSB on an underlying pro-forma basis.
Table 2 further shows that 47.4% of the Company's Financial Assets at Fair Value is accounted for by its interests in EIF's ten PE fund investments, and a further 22.8% by its interests in EIF's direct investments (excluding RSB).
Board changes
On 26 June 2017, Paul Garnett resigned, and Brett Miller was appointed, a director of the Company. On 30 June 2017, Andrew Baker resigned, and Tim Shepherd was appointed, the secretary of the Company.
Other matters
At the date of signing this report, the Company holds US$1.12m in net cash balances, equivalent to 1.74 cents per share.
As a Board we will continue to manage operating costs carefully. Our objective remains to realise assets at the appropriate time and value, and to return the proceeds, less expenses, to our shareholders.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I thank all Shareholders for their support.
Respectfully yours,
Rhys Cathan Davies

Notes to the Unaudited Interim Results
For the six months ended 30 June 2017
1 The Company
EIH PLC (formerly Evolvence India Holdings plc) was incorporated and registered in the Isle of Man under the Isle of Man Companies Act 1931-2004 on 10 November 2006 as a public company with registration number 118297C. On 28 March 2011 the Company re-registered under the Isle of Man Companies Act 2006 with registration number 006738V.
Pursuant to a prospectus dated 19 March 2007 there was a placing of up to 65,000,000 Ordinary Shares of GBP0.01 each. The number of Ordinary Shares in issue immediately following the placing was 65,000,002. The shares of the Company were admitted to trading on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange ("AIM") following the close of the placing on 23 March 2007. The Company purchased 500,000 of its own shares for US$0.60 each on 30 September 2011.
The Company's agents perform all significant functions. Accordingly, the Company itself has no employees.
2 Duration
The Company currently does not have a fixed life but the Board considers it desirable that Shareholders should have the opportunity to review the future of the Company at appropriate intervals. Accordingly, at the annual general meeting of the Company in 2018 a resolution will be proposed that the Company ceases to continue as presently constituted. Shareholders holding at least fifty one per cent of the shares must vote in favour of this resolution for it to be passed. If the resolution is not passed, a similar resolution will be proposed at every third annual general meeting of the Company thereafter. If the resolution is passed, the Directors will be required, within 3 months of the resolution, to formulate proposals to be put to Shareholders to reorganise, unitise or reconstruct the Company or for the Company to be wound up.
3 Significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.

Notes to the Unaudited Interim Results
For the six months ended 30 June 2017 (continued)
5 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (continued)
EIF Co Invest VII
The Company has invested US$7m in RSB Group through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), EIF Co Invest VII. RSB Group is a leading manufacturer of automotive components and construction aggregates. The fair value of the investment in Co Invest VII is based on the Company's share of the net assets of Co Invest VII at 30 June 2017 per its financial results as reported by the underlying fund administrator. The financial statements of EIF Co Invest VII are prepared under IFRS, with all investments stated at fair value. The underlying valuation of RSB Group, which is unlisted, is based on the trading multiples of RSB's comparable group and the application of a liquidity discount thereto.
EIF Co Invest X
The Company held its interest in Gland Pharma Limited through an SPV, EIF Co Invest X. EIF Co Invest X sold its interest in Gland Pharma Limited during the year ended 31 December 2014, but retained an amount of the sale proceeds to address any possible contingencies. The Company received its final distribution of US$1.4m in respect of this interest on 24 January 2017.
6 Earnings/(loss) per share
Basic and fully diluted earnings/(loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss) attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period:
30 June 30 June
2017 2016
'000 '000
Profit/(loss) attributable
to equity holders of the
Company (US$) 594 (547)
Weighted average number of
ordinary shares in issue 64,500 64,500
Basic earnings/(loss) per
share (cents per share) 0.92 (0.85)
----------------------------- -------- --------
There are no dilutive potential ordinary shares in issue, therefore there is no difference between the basic and fully diluted earnings per share for the period.
7 Subsequent events
The Company intends to make a further capital distribution of 1.5 cents per share to shareholders of the Company registered as at 20 October 2017, equivalent to approximately US$0.97m.
