The Renewables Infrastructure Group stated that net asset values had dropped from 127.7p to 123.4p in H1, principally due to lower near-term power price forecasts, lower forecast inflation and power generation that was 7% below budget.
However, the FTSE 250-listed group said it still had a dividend cover of 1.1x during the half, though this was less than the 1.7x reported at the same time a year earlier.
TRIG also launched a £50.0m share buyback programme and agreed to the sale of four wind farms across Ireland, Scotland and Germany for £189.0m, with an average sale premium booked on the assets 10% above book value.
As of 0915 BST, TRIG shares were up 1.40% at 101.40p.
