Reuben Jeffery III, Chairman of RCOI commented:

 

"We are pleased to declare RCOI's Q2 distribution of 2.0 cents per share, which is in line with the Company's stated target to deliver annual returns of 8-10%.

Ongoing high levels of deployment and the supportive backdrop of the elevated interest rate environment continue to offer an attractive landscape for the Company's investment strategy and are anticipated to support strong shareholder returns from the existing portfolio.

We also note the significant ongoing pressure in the US and elsewhere to both invest in critical energy infrastructure and support a global energy transition. This interest continues to be reflected in the Company's robust pipeline of new potential investment opportunities."
