2 The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Download the data pack at: Foreword - Andrew Moylan, Preqin Unlisted infrastructure fundraising in Q1 2 was slow, with just four funds closing on a combined $5.3bn. This represents the fourth consecutive quarter in which the total capital raised by funds reaching a final close has declined, suggesting an increasingly tough fundraising landscape. However, those managers which are able to achieve a final close are often attracting large amounts of capital. The average size of infrastructure funds has grown steadily in recent years, and stands at $1.3bn for funds closed in 2 to date, as capital is increasingly concentrated among more experienced managers. The competitive nature of the current market is further demonstrated by looking at the large number of managers seeking capital, with a total of 146 funds in market targeting aggregate commitments of $97bn. When considering the fact that 45% of funds on the road have already been in market for two years or more, it is evident that many fund managers are finding it tough to secure institutional capital. As of September 214, uncalled capital commitments (dry powder) stood at an all-time high of $11bn, demonstrating the considerable capital reserves that fund managers have available. However, with concerns over asset pricing, the number of deals being completed has declined for consecutive quarters, and it seems many are finding it harder to identify attractive opportunities in a competitive landscape. Nonetheless, institutional investors remain committed to the asset class, with 64% of investors which plan to invest in infrastructure in the next 12 months intending to invest more than $1mn, and the vast majority (87%) of investors planning to invest in multiple funds.

3 Download the data pack at: The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Fundraising in Q1 2 Fundraising for unlisted infrastructure funds declined in Q1 2, with just four funds closing, raising an aggregate $5.3bn in institutional capital (Fig. 1). This represents the lowest amount of capital raised in a single quarter since Q3 213, when $4.8bn was raised. However, those fund managers that are closing funds are often raising large amounts of capital, with Fig. 2 revealing that the average fund size has increased from $53mn for funds closed in 211 to $984mn in 214. This trend is further revealed in Fig. 3, which shows that since 21, managers have been increasingly meeting or exceeding their fundraising targets. Having dropped to a record low of 84% for funds closed in 29 and 21, the proportion of target size achieved by unlisted funds grew to 96% in 213 and 16% in 214. As a result, despite fewer funds reaching a fi nal close and the aggregate capital raised declining for the last four consecutive quarters, fund managers that do reach a fi nal close are increasingly able to reach or exceed their target size, as investors look to invest their capital with the handful of more experienced infrastructure fund managers. However, the length of time spent fundraising prior to reaching a fi nal close is on the rise, with Fig. 4 revealing that from 28 to 214, the average time spent on the road has increased from months to 23 months, refl ecting the tough fundraising market and the challenges managers face closing funds. The largest unlisted infrastructure fund to close in the last 12 months is Energy Capital Partners Energy Capital Partners III, which targets investments in North American energy infrastructure, including power generation, renewables, electric transmission and midstream gas sectors. The largest unlisted infrastructure fund to close in Q1 2 was the 2bn First State European Diversifi ed Fund, which principally Key Facts $5.3bn Amount of capital raised by just four funds reaching a final close in Q1 2. 2bn Amount secured by the largest fund closed in Q1 2.

This was followed by P2Brasil III, which secured $1.6bn in investor capital. Equis Funds Group closed two funds in Q1, raising $1bn for Equis Asia Fund II, which invests in core Asian infrastructure assets, with a particular focus on the energy sector in China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, and $3mn for Equis Direct Investment Fund, which will allocate further capital to the portfolio held by Equis Asia Fund I.

6 The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Download the data pack at: Funds in Market As of the start of Q2 2, there are 146 unlisted infrastructure funds in market, seeking an aggregate $97bn in investor capital (Fig. 1). The number and combined target of funds being marketed has increased compared to the start of the year, resulting in an increasingly crowded and competitive fundraising market, especially when considering that just four funds reached a fi nal close in Q1 2. Additionally, many funds in market have already been fundraising for a considerable length of time, with Fig. 2 showing that the majority (7%) have been fundraising for more than a year, and 45% having been in market for over two years. When considering that 55% of funds on the road have not yet held an interim close, it is evident that many fund managers raising these vehicles may struggle to gain suffi cient fundraising momentum to achieve a fi nal close. Fig. 1: Unlisted Funds in Market over Time, January 21 - April No. of Funds Raising Aggregate Target Capital ($bn) Regionally, 51 funds in market are targeting European infrastructure assets, with these funds seeking an aggregate $32bn in capital. However, North America-focused funds are targeting slightly more capital, $34bn, despite there being fewer funds targeting the region. The largest fund in market is Alinda Fund III, targeting $5bn in institutional capital (Fig. 4). Other sizeable funds include Arclight Energy Partners Fund VI, Morgan Stanley Partners II and Pan-European Fund II, which are targeting $4bn, $4bn and 2bn respectively. 2 Jan-1 Jan-11 Jan-12 Jan-13 Jan-14 Apr- Fig. 2: Breakdown of Unlisted Funds in Market by Time Spent in Market 3% Fig. 3: Breakdown of Unlisted Funds in Market by Primary Geographic Focus 6 Proportion of Funds in Market 25% 2% % 1% 5% 14% 18% 25% 24% 21% No. of Funds Raising Aggregate Target Capital ($bn) % Less than 6 Months 6-12 Months Months Months More than 36 Months North America Europe Asia Rest of World Time Spent in Market Primary Geographic Focus Fig. 4: Five Largest Unlisted Funds Currently in Market Fund Firm Target Size (mn) Location Focus Firm Headquarters Alinda Fund III Alinda Capital Partners 5, USD North America, Europe US ArcLight Energy Partners Fund VI ArcLight Capital Partners 4, USD North America, West Europe US Morgan Stanley Partners II Morgan Stanley 4, USD Global US Ardian Generation IV Ardian 2, EUR West Europe France Pan-European Fund II Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management 2, EUR Europe UK 6 2 Preqin Ltd. /

7 Download the data pack at: The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Institutional Investors in investors predominantly favour domestic investment when considering which regions to commit capital to in the next 12 months, as shown in Fig. 1. However, many investors also target geographically diversified investments; this is particularly notable for North America-based institutions, with 67% of these investors targeting global infrastructure investments in the year ahead. As the infrastructure asset class becomes more widely targeted by institutions, many investors are carving out separate infrastructure Fig. 1: Regions Targeted by Investors in the Next 12 Months by Investor Location allocations, as opposed to targeting the asset class through other allocations such as private equity or real assets buckets; Fig. 2 shows that 38% of investors have a separate infrastructure allocation. Regarding the amount of capital and the number of funds investors plan to invest in over the next 12 months, Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 reveal that a considerable 64% of investors plan to invest more than $1mn, and the vast majority (87%) of investors plan to invest in multiple funds.

8 The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Download the data pack at: Deals In Q1 2, 125 infrastructure deals were completed with an estimated aggregate deal value of $bn (Fig. 1), though it is likely that these fi gures will rise once more data is reported by investors. Europe dominated the infrastructure deals market in Q1, with 54 completed deals taking place within this region, at a reported aggregate deal value of $24bn. Forty deals were completed in North America at an aggregate value of $12bn. Notable transactions completed during this period included the purchase of Fortum Distribution AB, acquired by a consortium consisting of OMERS, AP-Fonden 3, Första AP-Fonden and Folksam, for 6.6bn. Other signifi cant deals include IFM Global Fund s $5.7bn purchase of Indiana Toll Road from Macquarie and Real Assets (MIRA) and Cintra, and Cheung Kong Holdings 2.5bn acquisition of Eversholt Rail Group, a rolling stock company based in the UK.

Regionally, North America-focused funds accounted for the largest proportion (49%) of industry AUM, as shown in Fig. 2, with a considerable $51bn in unrealized value of assets and $91bn in dry powder. Europe-focused funds have AUM of $92bn as of September 214, with Asia-focused funds and funds focused on other regions accounting for $32bn and $27bn of AUM respectively. As of March 2, global unlisted infrastructure dry powder stands at $19bn, with Fig. 3 demonstrating an increase in the dry powder available to invest in all regions during Q1 2. Since December 213, a greater proportion of global dry powder is accounted for by mega funds (those with a value of $2bn or more), increasing from 39% in December 213 to 49% in March 2, as a result of many of the largest managers closing sizeable funds in recent quarters.

10 The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Download the data pack at: Fund Performance funds are typically characterized by lower and more stable rates of return than private equity strategies, with the median net IRR of infrastructure funds standing at just over 1% for recent vintage years (Fig. 1). However, Fig. 2 shows that infrastructure funds of vintage years 2-25 have outperformed many other private equity strategies, with a median net IRR of 18.% compared to.7% for buyout funds. While 27 to 21 vintage infrastructure offerings have generated lower IRRs than other strategies, the 211 vintage median exceeds that of buyout and venture capital. Further strong performance of the infrastructure asset class since the onset of the global fi nancial crisis is revealed in Fig. 5, which shows that the PrEQIn Index (rebased to 1 as of December 27) stands at as of September 214, compared to for the PrEQIn All Private Equity Index.

11 Download the data pack at: The Preqin Quarterly Update:, Q1 2 Secondaries The infrastructure secondary market remains a very small segment of the overall infrastructure investment universe, but as the asset class develops, the need for liquidity is likely to increase and the secondary market is likely to grow. While only % of managers of secondaries funds surveyed by Preqin acquired infrastructure funds stakes in 214, signifi cantly lower than the proportion that targeted corporate private equity fund types, it is interesting to note that a greater proportion gained exposure to infrastructure than real estate or debt funds (Fig. 1). Fig. 2 shows a similar picture, with secondaries buyers more likely to be increasing their exposure to buyout or venture capital funds, with only a small proportion looking to grow their infrastructure exposure. Perhaps unsurprisingly, funds of funds and dedicated secondaries specialists make up the majority of fi rms buying fund stakes on the secondary market, but there is also a range Fig. 1: Breakdown of Funds Purchased on the Secondary Market by Managers of Secondaries Funds in 214 by Fund Type of fi rms acquiring fund interests, with pension funds and asset managers also active buyers (Fig. 3). Pension funds are the most active sellers, with public and private sector pension funds accounting for over a third (34%) of those fi rms considering the sale of fund stakes, as shown in Fig. 4.
