Rod Lockhart, Chief Executive of LendInvest, commented:
"We are delighted to reach this important milestone. We are very
proud of what the team has achieved already but we are also hugely
excited about the opportunities we see ahead.
Our differentiated, technology-driven business model makes us
uniquely placed to lead the digital disruption of the property
finance sector and, in turn, continue attracting deep pools of
investor capital to our platform. This IPO will provide us with the
resources and flexibility to continue investing in our technology,
expand our range of products and enter new segments of the
market."
Christian Faes, Founder and Executive Chair of LendInvest,
commented:
"It's been an exciting journey building LendInvest over the
course of the last 13 years, but there's a real sense amongst the
team that we're just getting started. Property finance is one of
the biggest markets in financial services, and yet still offers
amongst the worst customer experience with offline, archaic
processes. LendInvest is changing this.
From a standing start we now have GBP2.8bn FuM, and count some
of the world's largest financial institutions as investors. We have
achieved this by building a platform that offers speed and
certainty to borrowers and intermediaries while offering investors
access to an attractive asset class with compelling risk-adjusted
returns.
We are thrilled to welcome our new shareholders to the business
and look forward to beginning the next stage of our journey."

This announcement contains statements that are, or may be deemed
to be, "forward-looking statements". These forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many
of which are beyond the control of the Company and its subsidiary
undertakings (the "Group") and all of which are based on the
Directors' current beliefs and expectations about future events. In
some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by
the use of forward-looking terminology, including, without
limitation, the terms "anticipates", "believes", "could",
"envisages", "estimates", "expects", "intends", "may", "plans",
"projects", "should", "will" or, in each case, their negative or
other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking
statements relate to matters that are not historical facts. They
appear in a number of places throughout this announcement and
include statements regarding the intentions, beliefs and current
expectations of the Company or the Directors concerning, among
other things, the results of operations, financial condition,
liquidity, prospects, growth and strategies of the Company and the
industry in which the Group operates. By their nature,
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because
they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may
not occur in the future. Forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance. The actual results, performance
or achievements of the Group or developments in the industry in
which the Group operates may differ materially from the future
results, performance or achievements or industry developments
expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in
this announcement.
These forward-looking statements and other statements contained
in this announcement regarding matters that are not historical
facts involve predictions. No assurance can be given that such
future results will be achieved; actual events or results may
differ materially as a result of risks and uncertainties facing the
Group. Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to
vary materially from the future results indicated, expressed or
implied in such forward-looking statements.
Each of the Company and Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG,
London Branch, and their respective affiliates, expressly disclaims
any obligation or undertaking to update, review or revise any
forward-looking statements contained in this announcement and
disclaims any obligation to update its view of any risks or
uncertainties described herein or to publicly announce the results
of any revisions to the forward-looking statements made in this
announcement, whether as a result of new information, future
developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
Certain figures contained in this announcement, including
financial information, have been subject to rounding adjustments.
Accordingly, in certain instances, the sum or percentage change of
the numbers contained in this announcement may not conform exactly
with the total figure given.
The anticipated timetable for Admission, including the
publication of the Admission Document and/or the date of Admission,
may be influenced by a range of circumstances such as market
conditions. There is no guarantee that the Admission Document will
be published or that Admission will occur. Acquiring investments to
which this announcement relates may expose an investor to a
significant risk of losing all or part of the amount invested.
Persons considering making such an investment should consult an
authorised person specialising in advising on such investments.
This announcement does not constitute a recommendation
concerning Admission or the Ordinary Shares. The value of Ordinary
Shares and the income from them is not guaranteed and can fall as
well as rise due to stock market and currency movements. On any
sale of an investment an investor may get back less than he or she
originally invested. Potential investors should consult a
professional adviser as to the suitability of the Ordinary Shares
for the person concerned before making any investment decision.
Past performance cannot be relied upon as a guide to future
performance.
Neither Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, London Branch, nor
any of its affiliates, directors, officers or employees, advisers,
agents or any other person accepts any responsibility or liability
whatsoever for the contents of, or makes any representations or
warranties, express or implied, as to the accuracy, fairness or
completeness of the information presented or contained in this
announcement (or whether any information has been omitted from this
announcement) or any other information relating to the Company, its
subsidiaries and their associated companies, whether written, oral
or in a visual or electronic form, and howsoever transmitted or
made available or for any loss howsoever arising from any use of
this announcement or its contents or otherwise arising in
connection therewith. Accordingly, Joh. Berenberg, Gossler &
Co. KG, London Branch and its affiliates, directors, officers or
employees, and any other person acting on their behalf expressly
disclaims, to the fullest extent possible, any and all liability
whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from, or in reliance
upon, the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement,
whether in tort, contract or otherwise which they might otherwise
have in respect of this announcement or its contents or otherwise
arising in connection therewith.
Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, London Branch is acting
exclusively for the Company and no-one else in connection with the
possible Admission. They will not regard any other person as their
respective clients in relation to the possible Admission and will
not be responsible to anyone other than the Company for providing
the protections afforded to their respective clients, nor for
providing advice in relation to the possible Admission, the
contents of this announcement or any transaction, arrangement or
other matter referred to herein.
Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, London Branch is

Supervisory Authority and is deemed authorised under the Temporary

portion of the Ordinary Shares as a principal position and in that
capacity may retain, purchase, sell, offer to sell or otherwise
deal for their own accounts in such Ordinary Shares and other
securities of the Company or related investments in connection with
the Placing or otherwise. Accordingly, references in the Admission
Document, once published, to the Ordinary Shares being issued,
offered, subscribed, acquired, placed or otherwise dealt in should
be read as including any issue or offer to, or subscription,
acquisition, placing or dealing by Joh. Berenberg, Gossler &
Co. KG, London Branch and any of its affiliates acting in such
capacity. In addition, Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, London
Branch and any of its affiliates may enter into financing
arrangements (including swaps or contracts for differences) with
investors in connection with which they may from time to time
acquire, hold or dispose of Ordinary Shares. Neither Joh.
Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, London Branch nor any of its
affiliates intend to disclose the extent of any such investment or
transactions otherwise than in accordance with any legal or
regulatory obligations to do so.
For the avoidance of doubt, the contents of the Company's
website are not incorporated by reference into, and do not form
part of, this announcement.
Information to Distributors
Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements
of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product
Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Requirements"),
and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort,
contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes
of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with
respect thereto, the Ordinary Shares have been subject to a product
approval process, which has determined that the Ordinary Shares
are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors
and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and
eligible counterparties, each defined in paragraph 3 of the FCA
Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; and (ii) eligible for
distribution through all permitted distribution channels (the
"Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market
Assessment, "distributors" (for the purposes of the UK Product
Governance Requirements) should note that: the price of the
Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of
their investment; the Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income
and no capital protection; and an investment in the Ordinary Shares
is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed
income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction
with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have
sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result
therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to any
contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation
to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the
Target Market Assessment, Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG,
London Branch will only procure investors who meet the criteria of
professional clients and eligible counterparties.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does
not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness
for the purposes of Chapters 9A or 10A respectively of the FCA
Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; or (b) a recommendation to
any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or
take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Ordinary
Shares.
Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target
market assessment in respect of the Ordinary Shares and determining
appropriate distribution channels.
