NAV increased by 4.7% in September

News Release

Guernsey, 29 October 2014

Direct investments drive strong performance of 4.7% in September

è Princess Private Equity Holding Limited's ("Princess") net asset value ("NAV") increased by 4.7% to EUR 8.68 per share, year-to-date NAV growth stands at 11.0%

è Portfolio developments (4.6%) and currency movements (0.8%) have been positive during the month

è Princess deployed EUR 5.0 million to new direct investments and received distributions of EUR 7.4 million

Princess' NAV developed favorably in September and the main performance drivers came from the quarterly revaluation of Princess' direct portfolio. The largest contributor was MultiPlan, a healthcare cost management provider, which recorded strong financial performance for the quarter ending 30 June 2014. The company was highly cash generative, outperforming forecasts. In order to broaden the company's existing product portfolio the cash was used to fund the acquisition of a company which develops analytics to identify abusive bills. Additionally, security service provider Universal Services of America reported strong figures for the first half of the year. Besides the strong acquisition activity since Partners Group's investment, the company also grew organically. Another driver was Trimco International, a leading global supplier of garment labels, tags and trimming products, which reported improved results and was written up accordingly. In addition, Trimco distributed proceeds of EUR 2.5 million to Princess, with a further EUR 0.9 million received after month end. In total, this represents 0.45x of Princess' initial investment cost.

During the reporting period, Partners Group completed the previously announced acquisition of Voyage Care in a GBP 375 million transaction. Princess' exposure to the company amounts to GBP 4.9 million. Voyage Care is a provider of specialist care and support services to people with learning disabilities and acquired brain injuries in the UK. It is the clear market leader providing care in a total of 290 homes as well as through supported living. The company commands a strong reputation for offering high quality care and exhibited solid growth for the past several years. Going forward, Partners Group plans to grow the company organically and by capitalizing on consolidation opportunities in the fragmented market.

Princess will hold an investor conference call on 13 November 2014, at 9:00am GMT to update interested parties on the recent developments of the Princess portfolio. The information announced will refer to unaudited figures as of 30 September 2014.
