NB Distressed Debt Investment Fund Limited
("NBDD" or the "Company")
Sale of Surface Transport Asset
The Board of NBDD has been notified of the sale of the Company's remaining Surface Transport asset, resulting in a realised valuation below the investment's carrying value. The investment consisted of a municipal claim in Brazil, was held in the Ordinary and Extended Share Classes, and resulted in the receipt of sale proceeds totalling $5.3 million.
Due to multiple ongoing legal processes and a lack of clarity on the timing of resolution, finding a buyer for the Surface Transport asset had proven challenging. With limited visibility on liquidity and timing, the investment manager negotiated a sale of the Surface Transport asset at this discounted level instead of extending its maturity for another 12 months. The investment also included certain hedge and currency adjustments, which took some additional time to unwind.
The impact to the Net Asset Value ("NAV") of each share class is as follows:
NBDD Share Class | Realised Loss | Decline in reported NAVs* |
Ordinary | $5.08 million | 17.5% |
Extended | $1.97 million | 14.7% |
* As a percentage of 4 September 2025 NAV, as announced on 5 September 2025
For the avoidance of doubt, there is no impact from this sale on the NAV of the Global Share Class.
These updated valuations have been incorporated into the NAVs for close of business on Thursday 4 September, as separately announced on Friday 5 September.
