Aberdeen Standard European Logistics Income PLC

Result of Oversubscribed Initial Issue

£125 million of equity raised to invest in sizeable pipeline of investment opportunities in fast growing European logistics sector

The Board of Aberdeen Standard European Logistics Income PLC (the "Company" or "ASLI") is pleased to announce the result of the Company's Initial Issue, comprising a Placing, Open Offer and Offer for Subscription as set out in the Company's prospectus published on 8 September 2021.

The Initial Issue was significantly oversubscribed with strong support from existing and new investors. In light of this, and given further positive developments with regard to the near-term pipeline of investment opportunities, the Board has determined to issue a total of 114.7 million new Ordinary Shares, raising gross proceeds of £125 million at the Issue Price of 109.0 pence per new Ordinary Share. The new Ordinary Shares to be issued comprise 91.7 million Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Initial Issue (representing the maximum size of the Initial Issue), and an additional 23 million new Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Company's existing general non-pre-emptive issuance authority as granted at the Company's annual general meeting in 2021.

Notwithstanding this increase, a scaling back exercise has been undertaken as investor demand significantly exceeded £125 million. All valid applications under the Open Offer will be satisfied in full up to an applicant's Basic Entitlement.

Tony Roper, Chairman of the Company, commented:

"The very positive response to the Company's fundraising from both existing shareholders and new investors is a clear endorsement of the strategy and performance of the Trust to date. The issue was significantly over-subscribed and with the near-term pipeline of acquisition opportunities growing since early September, after careful consideration the Board decided to increase the size of the issue to £125 million.

"Our confidence in the Investment Manager's ability to continue sourcing on and off-market opportunities for the Company remains high, given its significant local presence across Europe and track record in amassing the current portfolio. With a continuing focus on mid-box and urban logistics warehouses in key European logistics hubs, we are confident that the proceeds of this fundraise will be deployed in a timely manner, providing shareholders with further attractive returns from this increasingly critical asset class."

Application has been made for 114,678,900 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.

The Company will make a further announcement tomorrow with the results of the General Meeting. It is expected that Initial Admission in respect of the 114,678,900 new Ordinary Shares will become effective, and that dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence, at 8.00 a.m. on Friday, 1 October 2021.

INFORMATION TO DISTRIBUTORS

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) the UK's implementation of EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("UK MiFID II"); and (b) the UK's implementation of Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing UK MiFID II, and in particular Chapter 3 of the Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook of the FCA (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such securities are: (i) compatible with an end target market of (a) retail investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom and (b) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in UK MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by UK MiFID II (the "Target Market Assessment").

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors (such term to have the same meaning as in the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) should note that: the price of the Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Shares offer no guaranteed income or capital protection; and an investment in the Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Issue. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Investec will only procure investors (pursuant to the Issue or any subsequent Placing-Only Issue) who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of UK MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

The AIFM is the manufacturer of the Ordinary Shares for the purposes of the UK PRIIPs Regulation and neither the Company nor Investec is a manufacturer for these purposes. Neither the Company nor Investec makes any representations, express or implied, or accepts any responsibility whatsoever for the contents of the key information document prepared by the AIFM in relation to the Ordinary Shares or any other key information document in relation to the Shares prepared by the AIFM in the future nor accepts any responsibility to update the contents of any key information document in accordance with the UK PRIIPs Regulation, to undertake any review processes in relation thereto or to provide such key information document to future distributors of Shares.
