Operating Income available to
distribute comprises loan income recognised in the period less
operating costs incurred and
before any impairment is taken into account. Included in the loan
income recognised in January 2025 is circa £1.2m (equivalent to
0.63p per share of loan income) related to Hotels, United Kingdom
which was fully repaid in January 2025 in advance of its
contractual maturity date and which benefited from the earlier than
forecast recognition of interest and fees. The Operating Income
available to distribute also includes realised foreign exchange
gains and losses that are available to distribute except where the
realised gains and losses relate to the settlement of hedges that
were previously rolled forward and the gain or loss on that roll
forward was classified as unavailable to distribute.
(5)
Unrealised foreign exchange gain/losses relate to the net
impact of changes in the valuation of foreign exchange hedges and
the sterling equivalent value of Euro loan investments (using the
applicable month end rate). Mismatches between the hedge valuations
and the loan investments may occur depending on the shape of the
forward FX curve and this may cause some movement in the NAV. These
unrealised FX gains / losses are not considered part of
distributable reserves.
All figures herein are published based on current
information, estimates and judgements.
