News Release

Guernsey, 26 March 2018

NAV increases by 1.0%

· Princess Private Equity Holding Limited's (Princess) net asset value increased by 1.0% to EUR 10.86 per share

· Portfolio developments (1.1%) and currency movements (0.2%) were positive

· Princess received distributions of EUR 5.7 million and invested EUR 3.0 million over the reporting period

The largest contributor to NAV growth during February was the investment in Action, the leading non-food discount retailer in Europe. Action published strong financial results, reporting substantial organic growth on a year-on-year basis. Revenues of the Dutch headquartered discount retailer rose by 28% and the EBITDA by 25% for the year to 31 December 2017. The figures were supported by a combination of like-for-like growth across existing stores and Action's ongoing international expansion. The company added another 243 stores across seven countries during 2017, closing the year with 1'095 stores.

Princess received distributions of EUR 5.7 million during the month, including EUR 1.4 million of proceeds from the partial sale of shares in Black Knight Financial Services (BKFS), a US-based provider of integrated technology, services, data and analytics to lenders and servicers in the mortgage and real estate industries. The remaining distributions of EUR 4.3 million came predominantly from Princess' mature legacy fund portfolio.

Princess invested a total of EUR 3.0 million during the month, the majority of which was allocated to liquid loans for liquidity management purposes.
