Princess' NAV increased by 0.8% in June

News Release

Guernsey, 25 July 2013

Princess' NAV increased by 0.8% in June; quarterly investor conference call to be held today

In June, the net asset value (NAV) of Princess Private Equity Holding Limited (Princess) increased by 0.8% to EUR 8.28 per share, which also represents an NAV gain of 1.8% for the first half of 2013, adjusted for the first interim dividend of EUR 0.26 per share paid to qualifying shareholders on 26 June.

Valuation developments had a +0.8% impact on Princess' NAV in June, with underlying company holdings continuing to perform well on the back of value creation initiatives. However, Princess' NAV performance during the month was tempered somewhat by negative currency movements, as the US dollar's depreciation versus the Euro negatively impacted returns from the portfolio's dollar denominated investments.

During the month, Princess contributed EUR 14.2 million in capital to the Partners Group Direct Investments 2012 program, to support its strong pipeline of new direct investments. One such transaction was the acquisition of CSS Corp, the global technology support services provider, in June 2013. Capital called from third-party fund investments amounted to EUR 0.6 million.

In aggregate, the mature Princess portfolio generated distribution proceeds of EUR 5.3 million during the month. Two notable exits, achieved by our investment partners were the sale of Civica, the IT service provider, to OMERS Private Equity at an enterprise value of GBP 390 million, and the sale of Plasti-Ape, a manufacturer of packaging solutions for medical devices, to private equity firm PM&Partners, at an enterprise value of EUR 71 million. The realizations of Civica and Plasti-Ape generated exit multiples of 2.1x and 3.0x respectively.

Princess will hold an investor conference call today on 25 July 2013, at 3:00 pm BST to update interested parties on the recent developments of the Princess portfolio. The information announced will refer to unaudited figures as of 30 June 2013.
