Princess publishes September 2013 NAV

News Release

Guernsey, 31 October 2013

Princess reports September NAV - New investment completed

è Princess' net asset value (NAV) fell by 0.2% to EUR 8.32 per share

è Growth due to positive valuation adjustments (+0.5%) has been offset by adverse currency movements (-0.5%)

è Positive net cash flow of EUR 6.7 million during the month

In line with Princess' strategy to transition its portfolio to a pure direct investment vehicle, Partners Group completed a new direct investment in Universal Services of America (USA) during the reporting period. USA is a provider of diversified security services to some of the largest real estate management companies in the US. USA offers its clients manned guard services, janitorial services and security systems, with the majority of its revenues derived from the provision of guard services. Partners Group will partner with USA's management team to further expand the company's business, building on its strong reputation via key strategic acquisitions and business development with new and existing customers.

During the month, Princess' liquidity position benefited from positive net cash flows, as distributions (EUR 9.3 million) from the Company's mature portfolio continued to exceed new investments (EUR 2.6 million). The positive net cash flow of EUR 6.7 million further strengthened Princess' balance sheet and supports the second interim dividend which is expected to be declared in November (subject to board approval). Based on the last two semi-annual dividend payments of EUR 0.25 and EUR 0.26, Princess' shares yielded 7.7% as of 30 September 2013.

A notable distribution in September came from the portfolio company Action, a Netherlands-based non-food discount retailer, which successfully completed a EUR 275 million refinancing. The senior loan, which replaced a more expensive vendor loan, was partly used to fund a dividend to shareholders, including Princess. The debt offering was significantly oversubscribed, indicating the company's high credit quality. Prior to this transaction, Action had been able to deleverage significantly as a result of its high cash-flow conversion and strong financial performance.
