Acquisition

The Board of TRIG announces that the Company has exchanged contracts to acquire a 7.8% equity interest in the Hornsea One offshore wind farm in the UK (the Project or Hornsea One) from Global Infrastructure Partners. Following completion of the transaction, which is expected to take place at the end of H1 2022, Hornsea One will represent approximately 8% of TRIG's portfolio, by value.

Hornsea One benefits from an inflation-linked Contract-for-Difference ("CfD") subsidy with 13 years remaining. It is the world's largest operational offshore wind farm and covers an area of 407km². The wind farm is located approximately 120km off the Yorkshire coast of England and has demonstrated strong operational performance since operations commenced in 2020. The Project generates enough clean electricity to power 1,000,000 homes.

Hornsea One was developed and built by Orsted, utilising 174 Siemens 7MW turbines. Orsted operates the windfarm under a long-term operations and maintenance agreement.

TRIG's investment in the Project is subject to regulatory and lender consents, which are expected to be received in the coming months.

Power prices and generation update

The start of 2022 has seen strong wind levels and significantly elevated power prices. 

Production and captured power prices have been above budget in the two-month period to 28 February 2022, with particularly strong wind resource in February, and this is estimated to contribute an additional c. 1p/share above budgeted performance to the Company's Net Asset Value since 31 December 2021.

Power price forwards for 2022 and 2023 (and their volatility) have increased since those used in the valuation of the Company's portfolio as at 31 December 2021 (the "Portfolio Valuation"). Approximately 30% of the revenues for 2022 of the underlying investments across TRIG's portfolio are not fixed and exposed to merchant power prices (consistent with the level as at 31 December 2021). It should be noted that power prices and their forwards are particularly volatile at the present time and that the outturn prices may be materially different to the forward prices at a particular point in time. However, were the increase in power price forwards since 31 December 2021 to 15 March 2022 used in an assessment of the fair market value of the Company's portfolio, and assuming on-budget generation for the remainder of 2022 and for 2023, the Company's Net Asset Value per share might increase by a further c. 2 to 4p/share.

The lower end of this range is based on the average of the 2022 and 2023 GB power price forwards since 1 January 2022 to 15 March 2022 and the upper end of this range is based on the average of the power price forwards since the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine on 24 February 2022 to 15 March 2022. The table below sets out these data points:

The indicated potential impact of the elevated power price forwards takes the average forwards shown above and deducts c. 15% for cannibalisation and a further c. 20% to recognise the risk of being able to capture these levels given that the outturn of power prices could be lower, particularly as a lack of liquidity in the power markets at these elevated levels makes it difficult to fix at these prices. This is consistent with the approach that the Company adopted in deriving the Portfolio Valuation used in the 31 December 2021 audited accounts.

The Company will next undertake a formal valuation exercise for the 30 June 2022 interim results.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Company's ESG-linked Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF") capacity, which enables the Company to act as a cash buyer of investments, has been increased from £500m to £600m. The RCF is £73m drawn and covers the existing commitments relating to the construction of the Ranasjö, Salsjö and Grönhult windfarms and the Cadiz solar projects of £231m which become due over the next two years as well as the equity commitments to the Hornsea One transaction announced today and due on the completion of that acquisition. The RCF has an expiry date of 31 December 2023.

Proposed issue of equity and pipeline

Following the acquisition of the stake in Hornsea One and with the Investment Manager continuing to see attractive opportunities across TRIG's core markets, the Company is proposing to issue new ordinary shares ("New Ordinary Shares") by way of a non-pre-emptive tap issuance (the "Issue").  

Bookbuild

The Issue will be launched immediately following this announcement, when Investec and Liberum (who are acting as Joint Bookrunners to the Issue) will commence a bookbuilding process to determine the level of demand from potential investors for participation in the Issue.

The New Ordinary Shares are not being offered at a fixed price. To bid in the bookbuild, investors should communicate their bid (or bids) by telephone to their usual sales contact at Investec or Liberum as the case may be. Each bid should state the number of New Ordinary Shares for which the prospective investor wishes to subscribe and the price or price range that the prospective investor is offering to pay; any bid price must be for a full pence or half pence amount.

The number of New Ordinary Shares to be issued and the price per New Ordinary Share (the "Strike Price") will be agreed between Investec, Liberum and the Company following close of the bookbuild at noon on Thursday, 24 March 2022, and announced shortly thereafter.

Investors should note that the Strike Price will not be less than 130.0p.

Investec, Liberum and the Company reserve the right to set a maximum number of New Ordinary Shares that may be allocated to any one investor.

The Issue will be made to relevant persons (as defined in the appendix to this announcement (the "Appendix")) through the Joint Bookrunners and will be subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Appendix.

Use of proceeds

The net proceeds of the Issue will be used to repay amounts drawn under the RCF and to meet near-term funding requirements.

The New Ordinary Shares will be issued under the general authority to disapply pre-emption rights over 10 per cent. of the Company's ordinary share capital which was taken at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 5 May 2021. 

Applications will be made to the Financial Conduct Authority for admission of the New Ordinary Shares to the premium segment of the Official List and to London Stock Exchange plc for admission to trading of the New Ordinary Shares on its main market for listed securities (the Main Market), (together, Admission). It is expected that Admission will become effective, and that dealings in the New Ordinary Shares on the Main Market will commence, on 28 March 2022.

Expected timetable

The times and dates set out above in the Expected Timetable may be adjusted by the Company in consultation with the Joint Bookrunners in which event a further announcement will be made through an RIS. All references are to London time.

Webcast

The Company will be hosting a short webcast to discuss this announcement at 9:30am UK time today.

Helen Mahy, CBE, Chairman of TRIG, said:

"We are only too conscious that these are extremely difficult times, and our hearts go out to those so tragically affected by the fighting within Europe. We believe that, against this uncertain geopolitical backdrop, it remains important to continue to finance renewables projects and play our part not only in the decarbonisation of the energy sector, but also contributing to security of power supply for the UK and the EU. In these challenging times, we are grateful for the continuing support of our shareholders."

Richard Crawford, of InfraRed Capital Partners, said:

"Hornsea One is a flagship project globally for the offshore wind sector. As with each of TRIG's four UK offshore wind investments, Hornsea One's inflation-indexed subsidy will contribute to the Company's strategy to balance subsidised and unsubsidised revenues and to deliver sustainable returns to shareholders.

This investment is coupled with an increase to the Company's Revolving Credit Facility and an issue of equity. These financing arrangements will contribute to funding the acquisition as well as the Company's construction projects, and provide headroom to pursue an attractive pipeline of opportunities and further progress our portfolio diversification strategy."

Information to Distributors

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; (c) local implementing measures; and/or (d) (where applicable to UK investors or UK firms) the relevant provisions of the UK MiFID Laws (including the FCA's Product Intervention and Governance Sourcebook ("PROD")) (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 New Ordinary Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the New Ordinary Shares 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, (b) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and (c) eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target Market Assessment").

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the New Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the New Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the New Ordinary 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 Tap Issue. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only contact prospective Applicants for participation in the Tap 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 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 New Ordinary Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the New Ordinary Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

Definitions of certain capitalised terms used in this section and in the Appendix are contained in paragraph 13 of the Appendix.

By participating in the Tap Issue, each Applicant acknowledges to and agrees with the Joint Bookrunners for itself and as agents for the Company, that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Company in accepting a participation in the Tap Issue, and confirms that it has understood the risks of investing in the Company and acquiring New Ordinary Shares and has read the risk factors detailed in the Company's latest annual report and financial statements, in the Company's most recently published prospectus and in the Disclosure Document, each of which are available on the Company's website www.trig-ltd.com/. Each Applicant also acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to review and access the information on the Company's ongoing charges detailed in the Regulatory Information. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude the liability of any person for fraudulent misrepresentation.

7.     Registration and settlement

7.1        Settlement of transactions in the relevant New Ordinary Shares following their Admission will take place within the CREST system, using the DVP mechanism, subject to certain exceptions. The Joint Bookrunners reserve the right to require settlement for and delivery of the relevant New Ordinary Shares to Applicants by such other means as they may deem necessary, if delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within the CREST system within the timetable set out in this Announcement (including this Appendix) or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Applicant's jurisdiction.

7.2       Each Applicant allocated New Ordinary Shares in the Tap Issue will be sent a trade confirmation stating the number of New Ordinary Shares allocated to it, the aggregate amount owed by such Applicant to the Joint Bookrunners and settlement instructions. Applicants should settle against CREST Participant ID: 331 for Investec or CREST Participant ID: 7BUAG for Liberum, depending on which of the Joint Bookrunners has sent the Applicant the trade confirmation. Each Applicant agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions which it has in place with the relevant Joint Bookrunner.

7.3          It is expected that settlement will be on a T+2 basis in accordance with the instructions set out in the trade confirmation. Trade confirmations will be despatched on or around 23 March 2022 and this will also be the trade date in respect thereof.

7.4          Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Applicants on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above at the rate of 2 percentage points above the base rate of Barclays Bank Plc.

7.5          Each Applicant is deemed to agree that if it does not comply with these obligations, the Joint Bookrunners may sell any or all of the New Ordinary Shares allocated to the Applicant on such Applicant's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for their own account and profit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Applicant plus any interest due. The Applicant will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by such Applicant and it may be required to bear any tax or other charges (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon the sale of such New Ordinary Shares on such Applicant's behalf.

7.6       If New Ordinary Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, the Applicant should ensure that the trade confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation.

7.7          Insofar as New Ordinary Shares are registered in the Applicant's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom the Applicant is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such New Ordinary Shares will, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to PTM levy, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. If there are any circumstances in which any other stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax is payable in respect of the issue of the New Ordinary Shares, neither the Joint Bookrunners nor the Company shall be responsible for the payment thereof. Applicants will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Tap Issue.

12.  Miscellaneous

12.1      The rights and remedies of the Joint Bookrunners and the Company under these terms and conditions are in addition to any rights and remedies which would otherwise be available to each of them and the exercise or partial exercise of one will not prevent the exercise of others.

12.2       On application, if an Applicant is a discretionary fund manager, that Applicant may be asked to disclose in writing or orally the jurisdiction in which its funds are managed or owned. All documents provided in connection with the Tap Issue will be sent at the Applicant's risk. They may be returned by post to such Applicant at the address notified by such Applicant.

12.3      Each Applicant agrees to be bound by the Articles (as amended from time to time) once the relevant New Ordinary Shares, which the Applicant has agreed to subscribe for have been acquired by the Applicant. The contract to acquire New Ordinary Shares under the Tap Issue will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of England and Wales. For the exclusive benefit of the Joint Bookrunners, the Company, the Investment Manager and the Operations Manager, each Applicant irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales and waives any objection to proceedings in any such court on the ground of venue or on the ground that proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum. This does not prevent an action being taken against an Applicant in any other jurisdiction.

12.4       In the case of a joint agreement to apply for New Ordinary Shares under the Tap Issue, references to an "Applicant" in these terms and conditions are to each of the Applicants who are a party to that joint agreement and their liability is joint and several.

12.5        The Joint Bookrunners and the Company expressly reserve the right to modify the Tap Issue (including, without limitation, the timetable and settlement) at any time before allocations are determined.
