PANTHEON INFRASTRUCTURE PLC
Update on Proposed Issue of Equity
30 September 2022
The Directors of Pantheon Infrastructure PLC ("PINT" or the "Company") have
determined that as a result of the extreme volatility of recent days in UK
markets, notably within Government bonds and yield-based asset classes, the
proposed issue of C shares under PINT's share issuance programme announced on
14 September 2022 will not proceed.
Vagn Sørensen, Chairman of the Company, commented:
"We have appreciated the high level of interest shown in PINT's investment
proposition of global private infrastructure assets by existing shareholders
and prospective investors since the launch of the issue. However, as a
consequence of the ongoing extremely elevated levels of volatility in the UK,
we have taken the decision to withdraw this capital raise."
Richard Sem, Partner at Pantheon, PINT's investment manager, said:
"The events in the UK over the last week have been unprecedented and whilst
PINT's global portfolio is not directly affected, the current market
conditions have created significant uncertainty for UK investors. We would
like to thank investors for their interest in the capital raise and look
forward to exploring future opportunities to grow the Company."
