Partners Group Private Equity Limited

 

NAV increases by 2.4% in October

 

 

·    NAV increased by 2.4% to EUR 14.58 per share; total net assets at EUR 1'008.1 million

·    Positive value creation (1.7%) and currency movements (1.1%)

·    PGPE Ltd received distributions of EUR 7.6 million

 

PGPE Ltd received distributions totaling 7.6 million, with EUR 2.3 million coming from Rosen Group, a global market and technology leader in mission-critical inspection services for energy infrastructure assets. PGPE Ltd acquired a stake in Rosen Group in March 2024 and the business has continued to perform strongly since then. On the back of healthy organic growth and deleveraging, the company completed a refinancing in October 2024 from which a portion of the proceeds were used to fund a distribution. Meanwhile, Partners Group and Rosen Group's board of directors have aligned on a slate of value creation initiatives, which are currently under way. The remaining balance was driven by legacy investments.

 

At a portfolio level, Forterro was among the largest value drivers due to its robust financial performance. Recently, the company acquired Germany-based Orgadata, a software provider for the global window, door, and façade industry. Orgadata's main solution, Logikal, enables firms to digitalize the manufacturing of windows, doors, and curtain walls at all levels. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2025 pending regulatory approvals. Partners Group continues to work with Forterro's management in transforming the platform into Europe's leading software provider to the industrial mid-market.

 

PGPE Ltd declared a second interim dividend of EUR 0.355, with a payment date of 13 December 2024. Together with the first interim dividend for 2024, which was paid in June, this translates into a dividend yield of 5.0% on the prior year closing NAV. The prospective dividend for FY24 is 7.0% based on the share price as of 31 October 2024.
