Chairman’s and Chief Executive’s Review
Introduction
We are pleased to announce the interim financial results for Livermore Investments Group Limited (the “Company” or “Livermore”) for the six months ended 30 June 2026. References to the Company hereinafter also include its consolidated subsidiary (notes 3 and 8).
The Company’s net asset value at 30 June 2026 was USD 134.6m, compared with USD 139.6m at the end of 2025. Net loss for the period was USD 5.1m, equivalent to loss per share of USD 0.03. The 3.6% decline in NAV during the period was driven primarily by a USD 3m reduction in the investment portfolio and USD 2.1m of operational expenses.
Interest and distribution income amounted to USD 5.5m, of which USD 5.2m was generated by the CLO portfolio. The Company remained conservatively positioned at the period end, with USD 36.4m held in cash and marketable securities. This strong liquidity position provides us with financial resilience and the flexibility to pursue attractive investment opportunities.
Our investment in Fetcherr continued to perform well. During 2026, Fetcherr focused on expanding the industries and sectors it serves and signed pilot implementations with large players in the logistics and hotel management space. Fetcherr develops responsible artificial intelligence solutions that translate market complexity into measurable profit growth through its proprietary Market Model.
Our CLO portfolio generated USD 5.2m in cash distributions during the period. However, it recorded a negative total return of USD 4.9m, largely as a result of declines in market valuations. During the period, we focused to further diversify the portfolio away from CLO equity into CLO mezzanine bonds and into a broader range of asset classes, including publicly traded equities and investment funds. This proved timely, as median CLO equity performance was approximately 15% negative in 2025 and declined by a further similar amount during the first half of 2026. Against this backdrop, we reduced our combined CLO and warehouse commitments from approximately USD 75–80m at the beginning of 2025 to below USD 45m by the end of the period.
On governance, following Ron Baron’s departure, the Company appointed two additional non-executive directors and one executive director. These appointments have strengthened the Board’s expertise in the areas of law, corporate governance, accounting and audit.
We have also devoted considerable effort to upgrading the Company’s reporting systems. The enhanced reporting framework is already helping senior management to monitor performance, assess risk and make more informed portfolio decisions.
Overall, the Company enters the current period with a strong liquidity position, a more diversified portfolio, enhanced governance and improved operational capabilities. These measures leave us well placed to navigate the continuing market uncertainty while pursuing opportunities capable of delivering long-term value for our shareholders.
Financial Review
The NAV of the Company as at 30 June 2026 was USD 134.6m (31 December 2025: USD 139.6m). The Loss after tax for the first half of 2026 was USD 5.1m, which represents a loss per share of USD 0.03.
The overall change in the NAV is primarily attributed to the following:

Livermore’s Strategy
The Company’s primary investment objective is to provide a diversified exposure to select opportunities in broad asset classes, and to generate high current income and regular cash flows. The Company has a long-term oriented investment philosophy and invests primarily with a buy-and-hold mentality, though from time to time the Company will sell investments to realize gains or for risk management purposes.
Strong emphasis is given to maintaining sufficient liquidity and low leverage at the overall portfolio level and to re-invest in existing and new investments along the economic cycle.
Dividend & Buyback
The Board of Directors will decide on the Company's dividend policy for 2026 based on profitability, liquidity requirements, portfolio performance, market conditions, and the share price of the Company relative to its NAV.

Review of Activities
Economic & Investment Environment
Global economic growth was solid overall in the first quarter of 2026, supported among other things by continued high spending on artificial intelligence, and global goods trade continued to increase. Momentum subsequently slowed as the escalation in the Middle East and higher energy prices raised production costs, dampened household purchasing power and weighed on business and household sentiment. Inflation rose significantly in many countries as a result of higher energy prices; key interest rates were raised in the euro area while they remained unchanged in the US. The outlook remained subject to high uncertainty, and above all because the situation in the Middle East was still fragile, with the trade-policy environment being a further source of uncertainty.
Financial markets were dominated by the Middle East conflict. Sentiment first deteriorated with the VIX rising significantly in March but then recovered strongly, after the announcement of an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Long-term government bond yields in the advanced economies initially rose on expectations of tighter monetary policy and later fell back, remaining above their March levels in the US and Japan. Front-month Brent crude futures rose to USD 118 in April, with physical spot prices at times significantly higher, before easing to around USD 80 by June. Industrial metal prices rose while gold mainly traded sideways to lower.
In the United States, GDP growth slowed to 1.6% (annualised) in Q1, somewhat weaker than expected, although private domestic demand remained solid on continued dynamic AI-related IT investment and a more moderate rise in private consumption; the BEA’s third estimate of 25 June subsequently revised Q1 growth up to 2.1%. The labour market operated at average capacity utilisation, with the unemployment rate practically unchanged at 4.3% in May. CPI inflation rose sharply to 4.2% in May, primarily on energy, and core inflation rose to 2.9%; the PCE deflator stood at 3.8% in April. The Fed left the federal funds target range unchanged at 3.5%–3.75%, reaffirming in June that the implications of the Middle East conflict for the US economy were uncertain. On trade policy, the Supreme Court ruled in February that most of the tariffs introduced in 2025 were unlawful. The US administration responded with alternate mechanisms for import surcharge and trade uncertainties continue with matters at the Court of International Trade.
In the euro area, while GDP declined by 0.9% (annualised) in Q1, due to the volatile pharmaceuticals industry in Ireland, momentum was generally positive but weaker than in Q4 2025. Exports developed favourably but domestic demand lost momentum. The composite PMI fell significantly after the escalation in the Middle East, particularly in services, pointing to a further slowdown in Q2. Labour market conditions remained favourable, with unemployment at a historically low 6.3% in April. HICP inflation advanced to 3.2% in May and core inflation to 2.6%, above the ECB’s 2% target. The ECB raised its deposit facility rate by 25 basis points to 2.25% at its June meeting, having held it at 2.0% for a year, and continues to run off its APP and PEPP portfolios by around EUR 40 billion per month.
China’s GDP expanded by 5.3% (annualised) in Q1, or 5.0% year on year according to the National Bureau of Statistics. Both services and manufacturing performed strongly, the latter supported by robust electronics exports; construction and real-estate services were the only industries to remain weak. NBS accounts show manufacturing value has added up 6.3% year on year, services up 5.2%, information, software and IT services up 10.6%, construction down 3.8% and real estate down 0.1%. Structural adjustment in the property sector continued to weigh on activity, offset by dynamic AI and green technologies (such as electric vehicles) and by economic policy. China’s reliance on domestic energy resources has limited its exposure to the oil-price shock. Excluding Chinese New Year effects, consumer price inflation rose slightly to 1.2% in May on higher fuel prices, while core inflation trended sideways at 1.1%; the urban surveyed unemployment rate was 5.1%.
Japan’s real GDP grew 1.8% (annualized) in Q1 and 1.4% (annualized) in Q2. June CPI was 1.7% year on year and CPI excluding fresh food 1.6%; June unemployment held at 2.5%. The Bank of Japan raised its guideline for the uncollateralised overnight call rate to around 1.0% in June, one of several central banks that responded to higher inflation by tightening monetary policy conditions. The yen traded slightly weaker over the period despite temporary support from currency interventions.
US equity indices ended the half year with strong gains after sizeable fluctuations: the S&P 500 rose 9.6%, the Nasdaq Composite 12.8%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average 8.9% and the Russell 2000 21.9%, with the S&P 500 Information Technology group up about 16% on AI enthusiasm with strong sector earnings, and market participation broadening late in the period. The US Dollar Index rose 3.0% (98.28 to 101.19). The 10-year Treasury yield rose from 4.18% on 31 December 2025 to 4.44% on 30 June 2026 (US Treasury / FRED constant maturity), with the largest increases at shorter maturities as markets priced a higher federal funds path. WTI crude futures settled at $69.50 per barrel on 30 June, up 21.0% over the period after the Middle East-driven spike; the Bloomberg Commodity Index rose about 14%, led by energy (+38.7%). Precious metals lagged: spot gold fell about 7% and spot silver about 17% over the period, with gold recording its worst quarter in 13 years in Q2 on a stronger dollar and Fed-hike expectations.

Senior Secured Loans and CLOs
The US leveraged loan market closed the first half of 2026 modestly in positive territory, with the S&P UBS Leveraged Loan Index returning 1.4%. That headline masks considerable dispersion: performance varied widely by sector and by name, and the software cohort in particular traded well below the index for much of the period. Credit fundamentals nonetheless held up. The trailing 12-month default rate was just 1.0% as at 30 June - well below its long-run average - and the defaults that did occur were idiosyncratic rather than symptomatic of a wider deterioration. Technical conditions were characterised by heavy repayment activity: $150 billion of loans were repaid during the first half of the year, taking the trailing 12-month repayment rate to 21.9%. Gross new issuance of $440 billion was therefore largely absorbed by refinancing, leaving net new supply of only $131 billion. The maturity wall remains distant, with just 1.8% of outstanding loans due before 2028.
During the period, concern that AI could erode the revenue base of software borrowers - a sizeable share of most CLO collateral pools - combined with the Middle East escalation pushed loan prices and CLO equity valuations lower. The decline reflected a repricing of risk sentiment rather than a credit event, as underlying credit fundamentals held up through the period. The software debate is not settled, but the characteristics that attracted lenders to the sector, i.e. contracted recurring revenue, high switching costs and products embedded in customers’ operations, remain intact for most issuers, and the first half sell-off appears to have priced in a faster and broader impact than the near-term evidence supports.
Primary market conditions were healthy as of 30 June. New CLO issuance of $80 billion in the first half was below the $100 billion printed in the same period of 2025, but refinancing ($63 billion) and reset ($87 billion) volumes were strong, and together they continued to compress liability costs for existing deals. The market-wide weighted-average AAA spread stood at roughly 124 bps at period end. Management also took advantage of market conditions and reduced cost of liabilities for two of its large CLO positions. For debt investors this activity has a second effect: tranches bought at a discount are being called and repaid at par sooner than modelled, crystallising pull-to-par gains ahead of schedule. With base rates elevated, floating-rate CLO junior debt continued to offer high current income against a supportive credit backdrop.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
- Accounting policies
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Livermore have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies stated in the 2025 Annual Report, available on www.livermore-inv.com.
The application of the IFRS pronouncements that became effective as of 1 January 2026 has no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
- Critical accounting judgements
In preparing the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, management made judgements and assumptions. The actual results may differ from those judgements and assumptions. The critical accounting judgements applied in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements were the same as those applied and disclosed in the Company’s last annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
- Basis of preparation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2026, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as adopted by the European Union. They do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The financial information for the year ended 31 December 2025 is extracted from the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 which contained an unmodified audit report.
Investment entity status
Livermore meets the definition of an investment entity, as this is defined in IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”.
In accordance with IFRS 10, an investment entity is exempted from consolidating its subsidiaries, unless any subsidiary which is not itself an investment entity mainly provides services that relate to the investment entity’s investment activities.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements consolidate the Company and one of its subsidiaries providing such services up to 30 June 2025. At that date, this subsidiary met the definition of an investment entity itself. As a result of that, the subsidiary was de-consolidated and recognised within the investments in subsidiaries at its fair value as at 30 June 2025. No material gains or losses occurred on this reclassification.
Note 8 shows further details of the consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries.
References to the Company also include its consolidated subsidiary.

- Financial assets at fair value
The Company allocates its non-derivative financial assets at fair value (notes 4 and 5) as follows:
- Fixed income investments relate to investments in the loan market through CLOs, open warehouse facilities, fixed and floating rate bonds, and perpetual bank debt.
- Public equity investments relate to investments in shares of companies listed on public stock exchanges.
- Private equity investments relate to investments in the form of equity purchases in both high growth opportunities in emerging markets and deep value opportunities in mature markets. The Company generally invests directly in prospects where it can exert influence.
- Hedge funds relate to investments in funds managed by sophisticated investment managers that pursue investment strategies with the goal of generating absolute returns.
- Fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities
The table in note 7.2 presents financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. This hierarchy groups financial assets and liabilities into three levels based on the significance of inputs used in measuring the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
- Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
- Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
- Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The level within which the financial asset is classified is determined based on the lowest level of significant input to the fair value measurement.
7.1 Valuation of financial assets
- Fixed Income Investments (other than CLOs) and Public Equity Investments are valued at their closing market prices on quoted exchanges, or as quoted by market makers.
- CLOs are valued based on the valuation reports provided by market makers. CLOs are typically valued by market makers using discounted cash flow models. The key assumptions for cash flow projections include default and recovery rates, prepayment rates and reinvestment assumptions on the underlying portfolios (typically senior secured loans) of the CLOs.
Default and recovery rates: The amount and timing of defaults in the underlying collateral and the amount and timing of recovery upon a default are key to the future cash flows a CLO will distribute to the CLO equity tranche. All else equal, higher default rates and lower recovery rates typically lead to lower cash flows. Conversely, lower default rates and higher recoveries lead to higher cash flows.
Prepayment rates: Senior loans can be pre-paid by borrowers. CLOs that are within their reinvestment period may, subject to certain conditions, reinvest such prepayments into other loans which may have different spreads and maturities. CLOs that are beyond their reinvestment period typically pay down their senior liabilities from proceeds of such pre-payments. Therefore, the rate at which the underlying collateral prepays impacts the future cash flows that the CLO may generate.
Reinvestment assumptions: A CLO within its reinvestment period may reinvest proceeds from loan maturities, prepayments, and recoveries into purchasing additional loans. The reinvestment assumptions define the characteristics of the loans that a CLO may reinvest in. These assumptions include the spreads, maturities, and prices of such loans. Reinvestment into loans with higher spreads and lower prices will lead to higher cash flows. Reinvestment into loans with lower spreads will typically lead to lower cash flows.
Discount rate: The discount rate indicates the yield that market participants expect to receive and is used to discount the projected future cash flows. Higher yield expectations or discount rates lead to lower prices and lower discount rates lead to higher prices for CLOs.
Investments in open warehouse facilities that have not yet been converted to CLOs, are valued based on an adjusted net asset valuation.
- Private equity investments are valued mainly on the basis of valuations reported by third-party managers of such investments. Real estate entities are valued by independent qualified property valuers with substantial relevant experience on such investments. Underlying property values are determined based on their estimated market values.
- Hedge funds are valued per their net asset values reported by the funds or their administrators or a total solutions provider on a periodic basis, and if traded, per their bid market prices on quoted exchanges, or as quoted by market maker.
- Investments in subsidiaries are valued at fair value as determined on an adjusted net asset valuation basis.

The Company has not developed any unobservable quantitative inputs for measuring the fair value of its Level 3 financial assets. Instead, the Company used prices from third-party pricing information without adjustment.
Private equity investments within level 3 have been measured based on their net asset value, which is primarily driven by the fair value of their underlying investments. In all cases, considering that such investments are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts of their underlying assets and liabilities are considered as representative of their fair values
Investments in subsidiaries have been valued based on their net asset basis. The main assets of the subsidiaries comprise investments and receivables from the Company and third parties. Where the underlying investments are measured at an amount other than their fair value, the subsidiary’s net asset value is adjusted to reflect the fair value of those investments. This approach has been applied in valuing the Company’s subsidiary Livermore Capital AG, in relation to its underlying investment in Fetcherr Ltd. The fair value of the investment in Fetcherr Ltd is determined based on external valuation without any adjustment. The Company has determined that the adjusted net asset value of each subsidiary is a fair approximation of its fair value.
A reasonable change in any individual significant input used in the Level 3 valuations is not anticipated to have a significant change in fair values as above.

Livermore Capital AG was consolidated until 30 June 2025. Its principal activity until that date related to administration services. Since that date, the activity of the subsidiary changed to holding of investments. Following that, it met the definition of an investment entity and as a result it was de-consolidated and its fair value added to the investments in subsidiaries measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The additions for the year ended 31 December 2025 include the fair value of Livermore Capital AG at 30 June 2025 of USD 16.080m. The remaining additions in both years relate to the fair value of amounts receivable from the Company’s unconsolidated subsidiary Sandhirst Ltd, that were waived by the Company as a means of capital contribution (note 21).
Livermore Israel Investments Ltd which was a 100% directly owned subsidiary, was liquidated during the period. The amount written off on liquidation is the subsidiary’s fair value at that date, which comprised mainly of a receivable from the Company itself, and equalled the subsidiary’s equity. The corresponding payable by the Company which was previously included in the amounts due to related parties (note 12) was also written off at the same date. No material gain or loss occurred.

Review Report to the Members of Livermore Investments
Group Limited
Review Report on the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Introduction
We have reviewed the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Livermore Investments Group Limited (the ''Company''), which are presented in pages 8 to 26 and comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2026 and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the period from 1 January 2026 to 30 June 2026, and notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the European Union ('IAS34 Interim Financial Reporting'). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, 'Review of
Independent Auditor of the Entity'. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial information does not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the entity as at 30 June 2026, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the six month period then ended in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting.
Other information
The Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Chairman's and Chief Executive's Review and Review of Activities, but does not include the condensed consolidated financial statements and our review report thereon.
Our conclusion on the condensed consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our review of the condensed consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the review or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Other Matter
This report, including the conclusion, has been prepared for and only for the Company's members as a body and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving this conclusion, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whose knowledge this report may come to.
