Q4 AUM update

Impax, the AIM listed specialist investor focused on the transition to a more sustainable economy, today provides an update on the development of its assets under discretionary and advisory management ("AUM") for the fourth and final quarter of its financial year.

On 30 September 2022, the Company's AUM totalled GBP35.7 billion, an increase of 3.3% for the quarter, which included net inflows of GBP606 million for the quarter. Over the 12 months of the Company's full financial year, despite total net inflows of GBP2.9 billion, the Company's AUM fell by 4.1%.

Ian Simm, Chief Executive, commented:

"Despite weak market sentiment, fuelled by rising inflation and geopolitical instability, Impax has continued to attract new business, recording positive net inflows in the second half of the financial year to 30 September, including in the most recent financial quarter, with notable progress in the United States and Asia-Pacific regions.

"Asset owners continue to be attracted to Impax's focus on the transition to a more sustainable economy, which includes renewable energy, energy efficiency, water and digital infrastructure, sectors that are responding positively to both near term and longer horizon economic trends."

Figure 1 below sets out further details of the movements in the Company's AUM for the quarter ended 30 September 2022. Figure 2 shows the same breakdown for the full financial year ended 30 September 2022.
