US Solar Fund in exclusive talks for sale of entire portfolio

US Solar Fund PLC on Monday said it has received a non-binding offer for its entire portfolio of solar generation assets from an unnamed suitor.

The investor in utility-scale solar power plants across North America said it has received a non-binding letter of intent for the sale of USF Holding Corp, its subsidiary which holds the portfolio.

Based on a review of assets with the prospective buyer, US Solar Fund said it has now received a further letter intent for the disposal of the portfolio.

It said the potential transaction is at an indicative value representing a ‘significant’ premium to its current market capitalisation. It would include a cash offer for the portfolio, paid in full at closing.

US Solar Fund shares were up 24% at $0.35 on Monday morning in London, for a market capitalisation of £86.2 million.

The portfolio is made up of 41 operational solar projects with a combined generation capacity of 443 megawatts, direct current.

US Solar Fund has granted the buyer an exclusivity period of 90 days, subject to customary carve-outs. The transaction is subject to due diligence and the negotiation of definitive legal documentation.

The firm said there can be no certainty that a transaction will be agreed upon or as to the final terms. Should the transaction proceed, it is expected to be subject to a shareholder vote.
