Estimated NAV
At 31 December 2025, PPET's estimated NAV was 840.2 pence per share (estimated

the estimated NAV at 30 November 2025 of 844.7 pence per share (estimated net
assets £1,255.2 million). The 4.5 pence decrease in NAV per share reflected
losses arising primarily from a 0.3% depreciation in the euro versus sterling

1 PPET's valuation policy for private equity funds and direct investments is

direct investments in which the Company has interests. In the case of PPET's
valuation at 31 December 2025, excluding new investments, 96.3% of portfolio
valuations were dated 30 September 2025. The value of the portfolio is
therefore calculated as the 30 September 2025 valuation, adjusted for
subsequent cashflows over the period to 31 December 2025.
This is an update from the estimated NAV at 30 November 2025, whereby 95.6% of
the portfolio valuations, excluding new investments, were dated 30 September
2025, adjusted for subsequent cashflows over the period to 30 November 2025.
