Princess Priv E Regulatory News (PEY)

News Release

Guernsey, 23 June 2017

Princess publishes May NAV

· Princess Private Equity Holding Limited's ("Princess") net asset value was flat for the month, net of the interim dividend of EUR 0.28 per share

· Currency movements (-0.3%) were negative while overall portfolio developments (+0.5%) were positive

· Princess received distributions of EUR 28.3 million and invested EUR 22.4 million over the reporting period

Princess received distributions of EUR 28.3 million during the month, including a total of EUR 21.3 million from a dividend payment and a placing of shares in VAT Group AG, the global market leader in the production of high-end vacuum valves. Princess also received a dividend payment of EUR 0.6 million from Global Blue, the global leader in tax refund and currency transfer services for international travelers. The company took advantage of its strong cash generation to return excess balance sheet cash representing 0.1x invested capital in May, bringing the total distributions to-date to 0.8x invested capital. The company continues to report strong financial performance as a result of greater purchase volumes in the tax-free shopping business, driven by tourists originating from China, Russia and the US. EUR 1.6 million stemmed from the sale of shares in Food company 1 (name withheld due to confidentiality restrictions), a foodservice distributor based in the US, which listed on the NYSE in 2016. Princess also received EUR 1.2 million following the repayment of its debt investment in Boyd Corporation, a US-headquartered designer and producer of engineered components used in manufacturing high-value products. The remaining distributions of EUR 3.6 million came predominantly from Princess' mature legacy fund portfolio.

Princess invested a total of EUR 22.4 million during the month, of which EUR 9.0 million was allocated to an equity co-investment in a European security company (name withheld due to confidentiality restrictions). Princess provided EUR 1.7 million of follow-on equity to Voyage Care, a leading provider of support for people with learning difficulties and associated physical disabilities in the UK. The company successfully refinanced its existing bonds with new senior and second lien notes and increased its revolving credit facility. The transaction has decreased the company's ongoing annual interest costs and grants it more flexibility to pursue its merger and acquisition strategy. Princess also executed two private debt investments during May. EUR 5.0 million of debt was provided to Prosol. Based in France, Prosol operates fresh food retail brand, Grand Frais. The company's stores are designed to resemble traditional indoor markets and cover areas of up to 1'000 square meters. Prosol operates over 185 stores, with growth of 15-25 new sites annually in recent years. Princess also invested EUR 4.9 million in the debt of a European sports rights company (name withheld due to confidentiality restrictions). The company is an international sports management, marketing and media company, and has several exclusive commercial and television rights for major sporting events.
