(LSE: PEYS/PEY)
Princess Private Equity Holding Limited
Princess publishes February NAV
· NAV decreased by 0.8% to EUR 14.16 per share; total net assets at EUR 978.85 million
· Currency movements were flat while portfolio revaluations (-0.7%) detracted from NAV
· Princess received distributions of EUR 1.4 million
· The above NAV does not take account of the recently announced sale of SRS Distribution, which delivers a EUR 16 million uplift to the last reported value of the portfolio company, equivalent to a 1.6% increase in NAV
In February, the net asset value of Princess decreased by 0.8%. The performance was partly driven by Clarivate (formerly known as CPA Global), a leading global information services provider. The company is listed on the NYSE and its share price fell after the publication of Q4 and full year results. On a positive note, Foundation Risk Partners, a US-based insurance broker, was positively revalued on the back of continued robust financial performance.
Furthermore, Princess received distributions of EUR 1.4 million, of which EUR 1.1 million stemmed from its preferred equity stake in Polyconcept, on the back of strong free cash flow generation over recent quarters. Polyconcept is a global supplier of multi-category promotional products, operating on five continents and selling in more than 100 countries.
