This announcement contains inside information.

CARIBBEAN INVESTMENT HOLDINGS LIMITED ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHSED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018

Belize City, Belize, December 19, 2018 -- Caribbean Investment Holdings Limited (London - AIM: CIHL; Bermuda - CIHL) (the "Company" or "CIHL")

The Company reported a net income from operations of $6.8m for the six months ended September 30, 2018 (2017 - net income of $9.4m), and a net income per ordinary share from continuing operations for the six months of $0.07 (2017 - net income per share of $0.09).

Interest income decreased by $4.5m due to (i) a payout of banana industry loans totaling $28.5m in March 2018 and (ii) a reduction in the interest rate charged on the LCIA Award from 17.0% per annum to a statutory rate of 6.0% as determined by the Caribbean Court of Justice following their judgment in favor of The Belize Bank Limited in November 2017. Similar to prior year's results, the allowance for loan losses reflects a credit balance as the Company reported a reversal of allowances for the six months ended September 30, 2018 resulting from better than expected recoveries from the sale of collateral.
