3i Infrastructure PLC (LON:3IN) released its interim financial statements for the six‑month period to 30 September 2026. Profit after tax contracted 36 percent to £166 million, compared with £258 million in the same period last year. Total income declined to £103 million from £115 million year‑on‑year.

The board increased the interim dividend by 6.3 percent to 7.15 pence per share. Total income and non‑income cash receipts, which include shareholder‑loan repayments, rose 61 percent to £195 million, driven primarily by a £92 million repayment from portfolio company Joulz, thereby strengthening cash available for distributions.

Net asset value (NAV) increased to £3.84 billion at the end of September, up from £3.74 billion in March, lifting NAV per share to 416.4 pence from 405.2 pence.
