PORTFOLIO UPDATE
The Board of Directors of VPC Specialty Lending Investments PLC (the "Company") is pleased to announce that the largest debt position in the portfolio, Essor Group, Inc. ("Heyday"), has been repaid at its carrying value in the last published NAV as at 30 June 2026 plus all outstanding interest. Accordingly, the Company has received approximately £9.3 million and the Board intends to distribute substantially all the Heyday proceeds to the Company's shareholders as soon as practicable. Given the Company has insufficient distributable reserves to return this capital through the operation of the Company's B share mechanism, the Board is exploring with its advisers alternative means of making a distribution to the Company's shareholders and expects to make a further announcement in due course.
