News Release

Guernsey, 26 July 2017

NAV increases by 1.6%

· Princess Private Equity Holding Limited's ("Princess") net asset value increased by 1.6% to EUR 10.77 per share

· Currency movements (-0.2%) were negative and overall portfolio developments (+2.1%) were positive

· Princess received distributions of EUR 5.0 million and invested EUR 5.8 million over the reporting period

In June, Princess' NAV benefited from the quarterly revaluation of its direct investment portfolio. The portfolio companies Permotio International Learning ("Permotio"), Dynacast and KinderCare Education were among the largest value drivers. Permotio continued to execute its business plan to create a leading international private schools group through a "buy and build" strategy, achieving significantly higher revenue and EBITDA compared to the previous year. Dynacast, a global manufacturer of customized and highly engineered metal components, reported increased EBITDA and revenues figures following its acquisition of Signicast in March 2017. In particular, Dynacast's operations in Asia and Europe performed well, driven by strong demand across multiple industries. KinderCare Education reported higher student occupancy rates during the quarter. Partners Group continues to work closely with KinderCare Education on a number of strategic initiatives, including an analysis of demographic trends to identify potential sites for new center openings.

Princess received distributions of EUR 5.0 million during the month, including a total of EUR 0.9 million from the partial sale of shares in Black Knight Financial Services (BKFS), a provider of integrated technology, services, data and analytics to lenders and servicers in the mortgage industry. In December 2013, Princess invested in the merger of two companies, Lender Processing Services and ServiceLink, to create BKFS. The company was subsequently restructured in June 2014 into two operating subsidiaries, ServiceLink, which remained private and BKFS which was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The remaining distributions of EUR 4.1 million came predominantly from Princess' mature legacy fund portfolio.

Princess invested a total of EUR 5.8 million during the month. Princess provided EUR 0.9 million of follow-on equity to Partners Group Pacific Restaurant Holdings as part of a wider financing round to support, among others, the company's acquisition of Consolidated Wings, a group of 17 Buffalo Wild Wings (BWW) restaurants in Indiana. The addition of Consolidated Wings will create the largest BWW franchise in the US. For the last twelve months ended 30 April 2017, Partners Group Pacific Restaurant Holdings reported growth in revenue and adjusted EBITDA of 21.1% and 22.4% respectively. Princess provided a total of EUR 4.2 million debt financing to a European security company in support of a private equity sponsor's acquisition of the company. European Security Company operates within the identity and security industry, and its solutions allow end-users to connect, authenticate and make payment.
