Notice of Results
PME African Infrastructure Opportunities Plc, an investment company established to invest in sub-Saharan African infrastructure and infrastructure related industries, announces that the review of its financial results for the year to 31 December 2009 indicates that net asset value ("NAV") per share has remained stable, a limited decrease in overall NAV being compensated by a reduction in the number of ordinary shares in issue resulting from share buybacks over the course of the year.
