LHV Institutional 'Baltic Horizon Fund (NHCBHFFT ET) Update, June 8th, 2020'

* According to Baltic Horizon Fund (‘BHF’ or the ‘Fund’), to contain the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its operations, it has focused on optimising its operating costs while working with its tenants to ensure the longevity of its rental agreements. It has managed to implement several relief initiatives for its tenants that aimed to alleviate the financial stress for its most vulnerable tenants by deferring rent payment for 90 days and waiving all penalties and interest arising from the rent deferral. The Fund has already warned that the crisis COVID-19 will hurt its Q2 2020 results. The Fund had assessed the impact of the virus on each of its tenants and decided on the various discounts for the quarantine period by mid-May. This included average discounts of 50% to the most affected tenants up until July 2020. Besides, tenants can receive government support measures.
