GCP Infrastructure Investments corrects portfolio value in half-year report
LONDON - GCP Infrastructure Investments Limited (FTSE:GCP) issued a correction to its half-year financial report on Thursday, stating that the principal value of its portfolio was £932.7 million, not £932.7 billion as incorrectly reported in an earlier announcement.
The investment company, which focuses on UK infrastructure debt and similar assets, reported a profit of £0.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025, down from £9.9 million in the same period last year. The company maintained its dividend of 3.5 pence per share for the period.
GCP’s net assets decreased to £871.7 million (102.28 pence per share) from £913.1 million at the end of September 2024. Total (EPA:TTEF) shareholder return for the period was -5.3%, while total NAV return was 0.5%.
The company’s shares continued to trade at a discount to net asset value, which the board attributed to elevated interest rates, challenging macroeconomic conditions, and outflows from UK-focused equity funds. The discount stood at 30.3% at the end of March.
During the period, GCP made no new investments but advanced £13.1 million to existing borrowers under contractual agreements. The company received loan repayments of £44.4 million, including proceeds from two disposal processes related to renewable energy assets.
GCP reduced its revolving credit facility by £24 million during the period to £41 million, in line with its capital allocation policy aimed at reducing leverage and returning capital to shareholders.
The company’s investment portfolio is diversified across renewable energy (59%), public-private partnerships (27%), and supported living sectors (14%), according to the report based on a press release statement.
