Dividend

Premier Energy and Water Trust PLC

Premier Energy and Water Trust PLC announces an unchanged third interim dividend for the year ending 31 December 2016 of 1.9 pence per Ordinary Share.  This third interim dividend will be paid on 30 December 2016 to members on the register at the close of business on 2 December 2016.  The Ordinary Shares will be marked ex-dividend on 1 December 2016.
The Directors have previously indicated that they expect that the total dividend for 2016, in the absence of unforeseen or exceptional circumstance, will be at least 8.00p per Ordinary Share.  The Directors are pleased to note that the NAV announcement for 31 October 2016 showed current period accrued net revenue (being the announced cum income NAV less the ex-income NAV) of 6.57 pence per Ordinary Share.  Together with the two interim dividends of 1.9p already paid this year, these unaudited figures indicate that the Company’s revenue earnings in the current year are already in excess of 10.00p per Ordinary Share, and as such the directors continue to believe that the stated dividend target will be met
