Partners Group Private Equity Limited

PGPE Ltd publishes May NAV

·    NAV decreased by 0.7% to EUR 14.19 per share; total net assets at EUR 981.43 million

·    PGPE Ltd declared a first interim dividend of EUR 0.355 per share, with the shares trading ex-dividend during the month

·    Value creation contributed 0.2%, while currency movements detracted 0.7%

·    PGPE Ltd received distributions of EUR 22.9 million and invested EUR 1.0 million

In May, the Company received distributions of EUR 22.9 million, largely from the sale of Civica, a UK-based provider of cloud software solutions for the public sector. Since Partners Group's initial investment on behalf of its clients in 2017, Civica has grown into a global leader in this space. Civica's software is used by over 6'200 public sector customers for the running of essential government functions across four verticals, including local government, healthcare, education, and central government, enabling improved delivery of services to citizens while reducing costs and boosting revenue and productivity.

EUR 0.6 million stemmed from the partial sale of PGPE Ltd's interest in Galderma, a global dermatology company that develops, manufactures, and distributes a range of medical and consumer skin health solutions. In March 2024, Galderma raised USD 2.6 billion via a public listing on the SIX Swiss Exchange, with the proceeds from the share sale being used primarily to pay down debt and refinance the remaining capital structure. Headquartered in Switzerland, the company has a global presence in over 50 locations across 40 countries. 

The resolution to change the Company's name to Partners Group Private Equity Limited passed its shareholder vote at the Annual General Meeting which was held after month end. To reflect the Company's new name, the corporate website address will be changed to www.partnersgroupprivateequitylimited.com. Shareholders should take note that temporarily, the old website would still be accessible. All other Company details including the ISIN, SEDOL and TIDM will remain unchanged. Shareholders are unaffected by the changes and existing share certificates will remain valid and should be retained.
