Bluefield Partners' managing partner James Armstrong talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the decision to initiate a strategic review and formal sale process for the Bluefield Solar Income Fund (LSE:BSIF). Armstrong explained the move follows extended consultation with shareholders and stems from Bluefield Solar’s continued share price discount to net asset value (NAV), which has persisted for over three years. Despite the fund’s strong performance since its IPO, the board concluded that "doing nothing is not an option", citing the lack of a clear market catalyst for a re-rating. He noted the aim is to assess how to best unlock shareholder value and improve liquidity through potential sale routes or other strategic alternatives. “It is about trying to work out how do we maximise shareholder value for the shareholders in what is a persistent, persistently difficult market,” Armstrong said. He also outlined key attractions for potential buyers, including Bluefield’s high-quality UK operational portfolio, a large development pipeline, and the possibility of rolling in the wider Bluefield platform into any deal. This integrated offering, Armstrong explained, may appeal to capital sources beyond traditional asset buyers. As the formal process progresses, Armstrong confirmed that financial advisers would lead market communications, with regular updates expected for shareholders.
