Riverstone Credit Opportunities Income
Quarterly Update
Material 7% NAV Growth & Further Successful Realisations
Riverstone Credit Opportunities Income ("RCOI" or the
"Company"), the LSE-listed energy infrastructure and
energy-transition credit investor, is pleased to announce its
quarterly portfolio summary as of 30 September 2022, inclusive of
updated quarterly unaudited fair market valuations.
Unaudited Net Asset Value
As of 30 September 2022, the unaudited net asset value per
Ordinary Share, including net revenue for the quarter ended 30
September, was $1.10 ($1.02: 30 June 2022) an uplift of 7%.
Period Highlights
-- Material increase in NAV from $1.02 on 30 June 2022 to $1.10
on 30 September 2022. The majority of the increase due to the
investment in Seawolf Water Resources at an attractive
discount.
-- Established track record of attractive realisations continues:
o FS Crude LLC realised on 16 September 2022 at 14.8 percent
gross IRR and 1.23x gross MOIC
o Circulus Holdings realised on 6 October 2022 at 16.6 percent
gross IRR and 1.14x gross MOIC
o Epic Propane initial investment realised on 30 September 2022
with nearly $1 million of gains received; in addition, loan amended
and extended to 30 September 2026 at attractive economics and
converted to sustainability linked loan with Sustainable Fitch
providing an SPO
-- Continue to invest capital across infrastructure,
infrastructure services and energy transition pipeline to keep the
fund committed and dividend stable
o On 1 September 2022, upsize of investment in Hoover Circular
Solutions
o On 26 September 2022, secondary investment in a stapled bundle
of private securities in Seawolf Water Resources including a first
lien term loan along with preferred stock and common equity
Portfolio Summary / Lifetime Key Performance Indicators
-- Portfolio of 100% floating rate, short duration, senior
secured loans supporting RCOI's ambition to deliver annual returns
to shareholders of 8-10%
-- 33.0% NAV total return(5) since IPO in May 2019
-- 20.6 cents in dividends paid since inception(6)
Market Update
-- Q3 2022 saw volatility increase due to a slowdown in global
growth expectations and oil prices dropping by over 10%. Despite
this, the Company believes the current energy market environment
remains constructive for RCOI's borrowers. By continuing to focus
the RCOI portfolio on energy infrastructure and infrastructure
services, swings in the commodity markets will have less of a
direct impact on the current portfolio and future investments. This
was illustrated by the Company's Q3 2022 performance, where RCOI
experienced a significant increase in NAV per share in the face of
significant volatility.
-- Based on the current unfunded commitments, recent deal
activity and potential new investment opportunities, the Investment
Manager believes RCOI will remain close to fully committed
throughout 2022.
Reuben Jeffery III, Chairman of RCOI, commented:
"Q3 2022 was very encouraging for RCOI given further profitable
realisations as well as new commitments in our target sectors. In
addition, a significant quarterly increase in NAV was principally
attributable to the attractive investment opportunity secured in
Seawolf Resources. I believe the Company is well-positioned to
continue to provide attractive returns from its portfolio as well
as through new senior secured investments from the considerable
pipeline of opportunities progressing through due diligence.
Since launch in May 2019 the Company we are pleased that the
Company has delivered a total NAV return(5) of 33.0% including 20.6
cents per share in dividend distributions(6) ."
Christopher Abbate and Jamie Brodsky, Co-Founders of Riverstone
Credit, the investment adviser, added:
"We are pleased that RCOI's existing portfolio is now majority
green and sustainability linked loans across our target sectors, an
important milestone. In an active third quarter of 2022, RCOI had
$24.8 million of realisations and committed $31.6 million of new
capital in three investments, an upsize to Hoover Circular
Solutions, the amended EPIC Propane investment and Seawolf
Resources. We are pleased to have completed over 10 deal
realisations since the start of COVID, all with a blended IRR of
17% over that time period, demonstrating the resilience of our
investment strategy.
Hoover Circular Solutions is a company with which we have a long
history and intricate familiarity, and which provides essential
infrastructure and services to the petrochemicals sector. We
believe this upsizing represents a compelling opportunity for RCOI
to increase exposure to a short duration investment with a highly
attractive yield. Since our initial investment in EPIC Propane, the
borrower has been a steady and strong performer, completing
construction of a mission-critical piece of energy infrastructure
during the tumultuous COVID pandemic. We were pleased to extend
this investment which we see as a win for both the borrower and the
Company. Finally, despite the stress experienced during the COVID
pandemic, Seawolf today is experiencing some of its best operating
and financial results of the past four years.
Based on the growing track record of attractive realisation
multiples, strong portfolio cash flow and the high level of current
investment we believe that going forward our portfolio income will
be sufficient to grow the Company in addition to delivering on our
dividend target yield of 8-10% per annum and preserving
principal."
