NAV increases by 2.0% in May

  • Net asset value increased by 2.0% to EUR 14.77 per share
  • Portfolio revaluations (+0.8%) and currency movements (+1.7%) were positive
  • Princess received distributions of EUR 4.1 million

In May, Princess' NAV increased by 2.0%. The positive performance was mainly driven by positive foreign exchange movements as the Euro depreciated in May against the US dollar. A number of portfolio companies also materially contributed, with KinderCare being the most notable. KinderCare is the largest for-profit provider of early childhood education and care services in the US, which has seen double-digit growth in revenue and EBITDA, mainly attributable to strong enrolment rates. Techem, a global sub-metering services provider, was also a large contributor, whose valuation increased on the back of robust financial performance supported by regulatory tail- winds and long-term contracts with customers. The third largest contributor to positive revaluations was Civica, a UK-based critical software solutions provider to the public sector. The company continued its strong growth since inception with a solid revenue and EBITDA performance recorded over the last 12-month period. This was primarily driven by strong organic developments in Civica's core software business.

During the month Princess received distributions of EUR 4.1 million, including proceeds from the sale of its remaining stake in Movate (formerly CSS Corp), a technology-focused business process outsourcing provider. EUR 1.7 million was received from Princess' mature legacy fund portfolio and private debt investments.
