Company projects 2026 underlying EBITDA to be slightly below 2025 level
Activation of Mid Cap II fund expected in 4Q 2026
Result Drivers
MID CAP I STEP-DOWN - Lower management fees due to Mid Cap I moving to post-investment period and charging fees on invested rather than committed capital
LOWER CARRIED INTEREST & INVESTMENT INCOME - Decline in carried interest and investment income contributed to lower revenue
HIGHER OPERATING EXPENSES - Operating expenses rose due to selective hiring, partly offset by cost discipline in other areas
