Nb Private Equity Partners Share Discussion Threads

yes but not easy to get exited about a possible 3% breakout :)

[skyship] 23/5/2018 08:37

At today's forex rate of 1.34 the NAV here is now up to 1287p; so the NAV discount also climbs to 23.1%...

NBPE should now be up at the 1035/50p level, not languishing down at 990p.

So IMO expect a chart breakout imminently.

# 30 April 2018 NAV per Share of $17.24 (£12.52) increased $0.11 (£0.29) from $17.13 (£12.23) NAV per Share at 31 March 2018

# NBPE's NAV increase of $5.0 million during the month of April included:

~ $2.8 million of unrealised gains attributable to the receipt of new valuation information, or $0.06 per share
~ $3.0 million of other unrealised gains, or $0.06 per share, attributable to gains from public securities and realisations adjustments, which were slightly offset by mark-to-market losses
~ $1.3 million of accrued cash and PIK interest from the income investment portfolio, or $0.03 per share
~ $2.1 million decrease in NAV attributable to value changes to other assets and liabilities during the month
============================

With the $ now at 1.35 the NAV is at £12.77 - but with 2/3rds of the investment portfolio at Dec'17 valuations there would seem to be plenty of growth still to come through...

The US$ rose 2.5% v. the £ in April; so we are quite likely to see a good rise in the April NAV.

Good call sky. I am still here, long term holding for me.

In view of the current $ strength and the recent uptick in the Private Equity sector, I decided to take a look at the Premium/Discount stats. Bear in mind that the largest $ exposures are HVPE, NBPE & PIN.

FPEO----380p----6.4% PREMIUM (tho to Dec'17; so s/b an increase in underlying NAV)
ICGT----860p---10.3% Discount
HGT----1885p----2.4% Discount
HVPE---1234p---20.0% Discount
NBPE----965p---22.2% Discount
PEY----1086p----5.6% Discount
PIN----1940p---14.3% Discount
SLPE----338p---13.2% Discount

Average discount now = a mere 10.2%

NBPE looks to be a stand out buy based only upon this admittedly rather crude analysis; but "BUY the ANOMALY" is something I believe in, so bought in @ 965p.

Good, but may cause confusion re charts etc for a few days:

NB Private Equity Partners Limited ("NBPE" or the "Company"), a
closed-end private equity investment company announces that its Class A
Shares have today been admitted to the Official List of the UKLA and to
trading on the Premium Segment of the Main Market of the London Stock
Exchange ("Admission").

The Company's transition from the Specialist Fund Segment to the Premium
Segment is expected to broaden the appeal of the Class A Shares to a
wider range of investors, improve the Company's ability to market the
Class A Shares to retail investors (where appropriate), an increasingly
important source of demand for listed private equity funds, and improve
liquidity in the Class A Shares.

Furthermore, the Board has taken steps to facilitate the Company's
eligibility for inclusion in the FTSE UK Index Series, which would help
raise the Company's profile in the market. In particular, the Company's
market quote on the London Stock Exchange has been redenominated into
Sterling. There will be no changes to the legal form or nature of the
Class A Shares nor to the reporting currency of the Company's financial
statements (which will remain in US Dollars) as a result of the London
Stock Exchange market quote being in Sterling.

The Class A Shares will continue to be traded on Euronext Amsterdam in
US Dollars. The ISIN for the Class A Shares is unchanged (ISIN:
GG00B1ZBD492). The ticker on the London Stock Exchange will continue to be NBPE.

nice runnings

Stifel have upgraded today to $13.20 target

[mad foetus] 15/12/2016 07:44

I wonder whether they have changed their valuation methodology - it was very conservative before. Still, great progress.

NAV up 2.1% to $15.32 in November:

An extract from BTEM's October factsheet:
=========================================

NB Private Equity Partners’ discount continued to grind tighter with NAV growth aided by an IPO of its top holding, an equity co
-investment in Extraction Oil & Gas (XOG) made alongside Yorktown Partners. XOG, which owns land in the Colorado DJ Basin, accounted for 2.7% of NBPE’s NAV prior to its listing which came at a price equating to a near-70% uplift over
carrying value. XOG then traded up further with the share price at month-end representing an 86% increase over carrying value.

Aside from the obvious benefit of an increase in NAV, this transaction al
so serves to highlight the conservative nature of valuations in NBPE’s portfolio.

We had a good October - NAV up 2% at $15.04:

[skyship] 13/10/2016 07:13

Hi MF - yes, a nice gain for the NAV - the upcoming return for September should be minimally a 2% gain:

[mad foetus] 13/10/2016 07:08

That has proved to be exceptionally well time Sky. Good news this morning as well, and the drop in sterling has made this a great investment recently. I've been invited to a lunch with the managers next month and will try to go, but it is good to see one of the underlying investments showing positive growth, especially as the NAV hasn't really changed much over the last 2 years, due in part to the relative youth of many of the underlying investments.

I've bought back in here @ 1050p & have also subscribed for new 2022 ZDPs at a 4.45% GRY.

Sold my RECP @ a c3% yield; so the new ZDPs would be good value if I get them...

[mad foetus] 29/1/2016 10:11

looks like a well times buy Sky. I continue to hold and with the divi and the currency movements am back at about breakeven, but clearly misstimed the call here.

[skyship] 22/1/2016 16:24

Chart has been total cr*p for ages; but could that $10 level provide support. Certainly the fall looks overdone with a 5% yield and a 30% NAV discount; so have bought a few at $10.
