EUR 6.4 million was invested in Velvet CARE, one of the leading European manufacturers of hygiene paper products. Headquartered in Klucze, Poland, with a history stretching back to 1897, Velvet CARE is one of the largest independent manufacturers of branded and private-label hygiene paper products, including toilet paper, paper towels, paper tissues, and moist toilet paper, in Central and Eastern Europe. With 850 employees, Velvet CARE distributes finished branded and private-label products via supermarkets, discounters, wholesalers, and other retailers.

During the month, Princess received EUR 2.4 million in distributions predominantly from the mature legacy fund portfolio.

Furthermore Galderma, a global dermatology company that develops, manufactures, and distributes a range of medical and consumer skin health solutions, announced its initial public offering ("IPO") on the SIX Swiss Exchange. Headquartered in Switzerland, the company has a global presence in over 50 locations across 40 countries, offering a portfolio of brands such as Epiduo, Differin, Dysport, Cetaphil, and Benzac. At the end of March, Princess' investment in Galderma was valued at EUR 24.6 million, consistent with February's carrying value. Princess is not expected to receive substantial proceeds in the short-term, while a lock-up period in connection with the IPO has been agreed upon for both selling shareholders and the company.
