Reuben Jeffery III, Chairman of RCOI commented:

"The ongoing elevated interest rate environment and maintained high levels of deployment both provide compelling tailwinds for the Company's strategy. Further, the significant investment momentum in critical energy infrastructure and the global energy transition in the US and elsewhere continues to embellish the Company's pipeline.

We are therefore pleased to deliver another 2.0 cents per share distribution in line with the Company's stated target to deliver annual returns of 8-10%."
