RNS Number : 4697S Partners Group Private Equity Ltd 08 January 2025
(LSE: PEYS/PEY)
Partners Group Private Equity Limited
NAV increases by 1.2% in November
· NAV increased by 1.2% to EUR 14.40 per share; total net assets at EUR
995.7 million
· PGPE Ltd declared a second interim dividend of EUR 0.355 per share,
with the shares trading ex-dividend during the month
· Positive value creation (0.6%) and currency movements (1.2%)
· PGPE Ltd received distributions of EUR 2.8 million
In November, a key performance driver at a portfolio level was Vishal Mega
Mart ("Vishal"), a leading retailer in India. At the end of the month, PGPE
Ltd's stake in Vishal was valued at EUR 65.6 million i (#_edn1) , resulting
in an uplift of around 20% compared to the October monthly report. The
November NAV only partially reflects the impact of Vishal's Initial Public
Offering ("IPO") in December. Further information on the IPO is available in
the press release accessible via the following link
(https://otp.tools.investis.com/clients/uk/princess_private_equity/rns/regulatory-story.aspx?cid=2492&newsid=1895497)
. The positive contribution from Vishal was partially offset by a decrease in
the listed share price of KinderCare Learning Companies, the largest
for-profit provider of early childhood education and care services in the US.
Finally, Emeria, a leading European provider of residential property
management services, was another top contributor during the month. The company
continues to report steady growth, thanks to its robust acquisition strategy
and resilient performance in core residential real estate services.
PGPE Ltd received distributions totaling EUR 2.8 million, primarily from the
final portion of sale proceeds from its earlier exit of Hofmanns, a
Germany-based provider of premium ready-to-eat frozen meals and tailored
catering services to B2B customers in business canteens, social organizations
(e.g. schools, kindergartens) and hospitals. Partners Group originally
acquired Hofmanns on behalf of its clients in 2014 and worked with management
to drive various growth and operational excellence initiatives. These included
repositioning the Hofmanns brand towards a modern and sustainable brand
proposition, launching a B2C online sales channel, and digitalization of
customer ordering and internal reporting processes.
