Sale of residual economic interest in securitisation

 

LendInvest plc (AIM: LINV, "LendInvest" or the "Group"), the UK's leading platform for mortgages, through its wholly owned subsidiary, LendInvest BTL Limited, announces that it has today successfully completed the sale of its non-risk retention residual economic interest in the Mortimer BTL 2021-1 plc securitisation for a cash consideration of £8.565 million (the "Transaction"). Citi purchased the residual economic interest for onward sale.

 

In line with the Group's strategy to optimise its funds under management, while at the same time moving more assets off its balance sheet, the Transaction results in a reduction in the Group's gross loans and advances of £236 million. The Transaction also generates a net pre-tax profit of £10.8 million1 for the year ended 31 March 2024, recognised through the P&L.

 

The Group continues to pursue further potential sales of financial assets currently held on its balance sheet in the current financial year which are expected to offset (or partially offset) the effect of the  Transaction in P&L terms. As such, Management's expectations of the Group's performance for the year ended 31 March 2024 remain unchanged.

 

1 The difference between the cash consideration and the Group's net gain is driven by the Group no longer consolidating the Mortimer BTL 2021-1 plc securitisation entity into the Group's results.
