Notes to Editors:

NESF is a specialist investment company that invests in operating solar power plants in the UK. Its objective is to secure attractive shareholder returns through RPI-linked dividends and long-term capital growth. The Company achieves this by acquiring solar power plants on agricultural, industrial and commercial sites.

NESF has raised equity proceeds of GBP586m since its initial public offering on the main market of the London Stock Exchange in April 2014. It also has credit facilities of GBP269.8m in place (GBP150m from a syndicate including MIDIS, NAB and CBA; MIDIS: GBP54.3m; Bayerische Landesbank: GBP43.8m; and NIBC: GBP21.7m).

NESF is differentiated by its access to NextEnergy Capital Group (NEC Group), its Investment Manager, which has a strong track record in sourcing, acquiring and managing operating solar assets. WiseEnergy is NEC Group's specialist operating asset management division, providing solar asset management, monitoring and other services to over 1,300 utility-scale solar power plants with an installed capacity in excess of 1.8 GW.
