Princess publishes April 2014 NAV

22nd May 2014 12:47

RNS Number : 8338H
Princess Private Equity Holding Ltd
22 May 2014
 



News Release

 

Guernsey, 22 May 2014

 

Direct investment drives distributions

 

è Princess' net asset value (NAV) decreased slightly by 0.2% to EUR 8.21 per share

 

è Princess received EUR 11.0 million in distributions while capital calls amounted to EUR 1.7 million

 

è Overall portfolio developments have been flat and currency movements (-0.1%) have been slightly negative

 

With EUR 5.7 million, Princess' direct investment in Newcastle Coal Infrastructure Group (NCIG) was the main contributor to April's distributions. Another EUR 5.3 million in distributions were received from Princess' legacy third party fund portfolio.

 

In March 2014, NCIG announced its intention to redeem all of the subordinated debt financing that was provided by Partners Group to fund Stage 2 of its expansion project. NCIG operates a coal export terminal at the Port of Newcastle, which services major coalfields in New South Wales, Australia. NCIG's overall expansion project increased its terminal capacity to 66 million tons p.a. from 30 million tons p.a. The redemption resulted in a realization of Princess' investment in the terminal operator.

 

During May, Princess declared an interim dividend of EUR 0.27 per share for the 2014 calendar year. This translated into a dividend yield of 6.6% on the NAV per share as of 30 April 2014, consistent with the Company's commitment to pay semi-annual payments of 5-8% p.a. on opening NAV. The dividend will be paid on 18 June 2014, with the relevant date for the entitlement to the dividend and the corresponding ex-dividend date falling on 30 May 2014 and 28 May 2014 respectively.
