Princess publishes February NAV

  • Princess Private Equity Holding Limited's ("Princess" or the "Company") net asset value decreased by 0.8% to EUR 15.00 per share

  • Portfolio developments were negative (-0.7%) while currency move-ments were flat

  • Princess received distributions of EUR 14.2 million and invested EUR 4.4 million

In February, Princess received distributions of EUR 14.2 million, of which EUR 13.5 million stemmed from the sale of a Swiss-based pharmaceutical developer. Over a more than eight-year holding period, the company has been transformed into a high-growth, emerging markets-focused pharma-ceutical firm through several strategic acquisitions.

The remaining distributions of EUR 0.7 million were received from the Company's legacy fund portfolio.

Princess invested EUR 4.4 million in a co-investment in HTL Biotechnology, a leading biotech and industrial player in the development and production of pharmaceutical-grade biopolymers used in pharmaceutical applications such as medical aesthetics, ophthalmology and rheumatology. The company is a pioneer in the production of hyaluronic acid ("HA") and is one of the few global manufacturers that can produce a significant volume of high-grade pharmaceutical quality HA. The investment in HTL Biotechnology stands to benefit from its leading position in the fast-growing HA market. The company also benefits from a diversified customer base that includes major pharmaceutical players with long-term contracts, leading to high cash flow visibility. With a strong international focus and a growing demand in all markets, the company has expanded over the past three years with new offices opened in Singapore and the US. HTL Biotechnology will look to accelerate its development strategy by creating new types of biopolymers and chemical modifications while exploring the untapped potential of bi-opolymers in innovative applications such as regenerative medicine or drug delivery.
