Update on Yemen and Libya

APR Energy plc (LSE: APR), a global leader in fast-track power solutions, (the "Group") today updates the market on the demobilisation of its modular power assets in Yemen.

During the first quarter, the Group terminated its 60MW diesel project in Yemen following the escalating conflict in that country. Due the inability to enter Yemen to safely demobilise and remove the assets, the Group has taken a second-quarter write-off of approximately $24 million.

The assets in Yemen are insured. The Group intends to continue to pursue all avenues to preserve and recover them. The Group will provide the market with updates in due course.

The Group also announces that it received a payment of $10.7 million to cover a portion of the receivables outstanding from its Libyan contract. The Group terminated its operations in Libya in the first-quarter of 2015, due to not receiving government ratification of its contract. The receipt of the receivable has been included in the Group's second-quarter financials.
