Distributions during August amounted to EUR 18.6 million of which EUR 6.7 million stemmed from the investment in KinderCare Education. Since the initial investment in July 2015, the largest for-profit provider of early childhood education in the US successfully deleveraged through robust financial performance and earnings growth. The company's management continues to analyze demographic trends for new potential center openings while implementing a pricing optimization model. In addition, Partners Group is actively exploring accretive and transformational acquisition opportunities to complement and expand the company. Princess also received EUR 4.4 million from the realization of AWAS Aviation, an Ireland-based aircraft leasing and trading company. The company first began preparations for an exit in early 2015, signing an agreement to sell a portfolio of 84 aircraft to Macquarie Group in order to optimize the size of the portfolio ahead of the final exit. The remaining distributions of EUR 7.5 million came predominantly from Princess' mature legacy fund portfolio.

Princess invested a total of EUR 9.9 million during the month, of which EUR 4.1 million was allocated to SPi Global, a leading provider of business process outsourcing services to education and research publishers worldwide. SPi is an attractive investment given its market leading position in a consolidating content solutions industry. Partners Group will work closely with SPi's management to build on the consolidation momentum within the industry and will focus on maintaining the growth in share of wallet with the company's existing customers. Also, Princess made an investment of EUR 3.4 million in Key Retirement Group ("KRG"), a leading UK provider of independent specialist advice and financial products for individuals approaching or in retirement. The company specializes in the origination and distribution of lifetime mortgages, which enable customers to release equity from their homes to fund their retirements. Partners Group will work closely with the management team on value creation initiatives such as expanding KRG's product portfolio.

Princess announced on 31 August 2017 that it intended to introduce an additional market quote in Sterling (the "Sterling Quote") for its existing ordinary shares on the London Stock Exchange alongside the existing Euro market quote (the "Euro quote"). Following application to the London Stock Exchange, the Sterling Quote was admitted to trading with effect from 8am BST on 8 September. The existing ISIN will apply for both the Euro Quote and the new Sterling Quote. A new SEDOL ("BF012D4") and TIDM ("PEYS") have been introduced for the Sterling Quote. The Board believes that the introduction of the Sterling Quote is likely to broaden the potential ownership of Princess' ordinary shares and in due course may therefore enhance their liquidity in the secondary market.
