NAV and Investment Update

14 December 2020

Sequoia Economic Infrastructure Income Fund Limited

("SEQI" or the "Company")

NAV update

The NAV for SEQI, the specialist investor in economic infrastructure debt, increased to 100.27 pence per share from the prior month's NAV of 98.96 pence per share, representing an increase of 1.31 pence per share.

The gain in asset valuations this month can be attributed primarily to the noticeable spread tightening of comparable investments across the portfolio following the announcement of the coronavirus vaccines and the US election results.

A full attribution of the changes in the NAV per share is as follows:

Update on the effects of COVID-19 on the Portfolio

The Investment Adviser, the Investment Manager, and PWC, the independent valuation agent, have continued their close analysis of the effects of COVID-19 on the Company's portfolio which also includes a market benchmarking exercise to conclude on spread and yield adjustments for each of the investments. The Investment Adviser is also closely monitoring the Company's assets that have not been performing as expected.

Broadly speaking, the spread widening across the portfolio during the second half of March 2020 continued its reversal throughout November, with several of the Company's investments performing better than expectations after the initial and second lockdown.

Further Portfolio update

As at 30 November 2020, the Company had cash of £60.2m and had drawn £80.1m on its £280m Revolving Credit Facility. The Company also had undrawn commitments on existing investments collectively valued at £145.1m. As of 30 November 2020, the Company's invested portfolio comprised of 61 private debt investments and 12 infrastructure bonds across 8 sectors and 27 sub-sectors. It had an annualised yield-to-maturity (or yield-to-worst in the case of callable bonds) of 9.2% and a cash yield of 6.0%. The weighted average portfolio life is approximately 5.5 years. Private debt investments represented 94% of the total portfolio and 64% of the portfolio comprised floating rate assets. The weighted average purchase price of the Company's investments was 97.0% of par. Investments which are pre-operational represented 11.0% of total assets.

The Company's invested portfolio remains geographically diverse with 51% located across the US, 16% in the UK, 27% in Europe, and 6% in Australia/New Zealand. Currently the Company is not investing in Portugal or Italy but has selectively invested in opportunities in Spain. The Company's pipeline of economic infrastructure debt investments remains strong and is diversified by sector, sub-sector, and jurisdiction.

At month end, approximately 98.0% of the Company's NAV consisted of either Sterling assets or was hedged into Sterling. The Company has adequate resources to cover margin calls on its hedging book.

The Company's settled investment activities during November include:

·      A $30.0m Opco loan to Cardinal States Gathering Company LLC backed by 7 interconnecting natural gas pipelines throughout the US;

·      An additional $10.0m Holdco disbursement to CSG Holdings, which owns 100% of Cardinal States Gathering Company LLC;
