Bluefield Solar Income Fund Limited

('Bluefield Solar' or the 'Company')

Unaudited NAV 31 March 2023 and Second Interim Dividend

Bluefield Solar (LON: BSIF), the UK income fund focused on acquiring and managing UK-based renewable energy and storage assets to provide growing dividends for its shareholders whilst furthering the decarbonisation of the energy system, announces its net asset value ('NAV') as at 31 March 2023, and the Company's second interim dividend for the current financial year, which ends on 30 June 2023. Unless otherwise noted herein, the information provided in this announcement is unaudited.

The NAV as at 31 March 2023 was £850.2 million, or 139.1 pence per Ordinary Share ('pps'), compared to the unaudited NAV of 142.4 pps as at 31 December 2022. This equates to a reduction of the 31 March 2023 NAV of -3.3pps (vs 31 Dec 2022 NAV) and a NAV total return for the quarter of -2.3%.

The NAV includes the published power curve forecasts, available at 31 March 2023, from the Company's three leading independent power forecasters, all of which have lower price forecasts for the near term compared to the previously published power curves, as well as updates for operational performance and continued investment in the Company's development pipeline and construction of Yelvertoft (a CfD backed 48MWp solar photovoltaic ('PV') project).

The movements are summarised in the table below for completeness:

The Company's proprietary development pipeline now stands at 1.40GW (955MW of solar and 444MW of storage) and gearing (based on the Gross Asset Value of the Company) is 40% as at 31 March 2023.

All other core valuation assumptions remain consistent with the NAV issued in the Company's Interim financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2022.

A second interim dividend of 2.10 pence per Ordinary Share (May 2022: 2.03 pps) will be payable to shareholders on the register as at 19 May 2023 with an associated ex-dividend date of 18 May 2023 and a payment date on or around 12 June 2023. Dividends declared to date for the current financial year now stand at 4.20 pps.

For the avoidance of doubt, the 31 March 2023 NAV does not include a liability for the second interim dividend of 2.10 pence per Ordinary Share as this has been declared post 31 March 2023.

Furthermore, the Board is pleased to reconfirm its guidance of a full year dividend of not less than 8.40 pence per Ordinary Share for the financial year ending 30 June 2023.  This is expected to be covered by earnings and is post debt amortisation.
