Quarterly results for the three months ended 31 March 2022
(unaudited)
-- NAV total return per share for the three-month period ended 31 March 2022 of 0.4%.
-- Share price total return for the three-month period ended 31 March 2022 of -4.5%.
-- NAV of 637.78p per share as at 31 March 2022.
-- Quarterly dividend of 6.05p per Ordinary Share representing a yield of 4.7% .
Introduction
As at 31 March 2022, the net assets of the Company were GBP471.6
million, giving a Net Asset Value ('NAV') per share of 637.78p,
which taking into account the dividend of 5.27p paid on 28 January
2022, gives an increase of 0.4% over the quarter. The share price
performance has been disappointing with a share price total return
of -4.5% for the period. The discount had widened to 28% by the
quarter end and now stands at 29%. Many of the other investment
companies in our sector have seen similar downward pressure on
share prices reflecting the impact of external shocks on investor
sentiment.
As at 31 March 2022 the Company had net debt of GBP12.2 million.
The current debt is slightly higher at GBP21.3 million. Outstanding
undrawn commitments were GBP152.9 million including GBP36.8 million
to funds where the investment period has expired.
The dividend to be paid on 29 July 2022 to shareholders on the
register on 8 July 2022 with an ex-dividend date of 7 July 2022
will be 6.05p per share.
As is usual for the first quarter most of the valuations are
based upon 31 December valuations. Very few March reports had been
received by the date of compilation of this valuation. 14% of
valuations are based on 31 March data with the remaining 86% based
on December reports. This is in line with the usual proportions at
this early point in the year.
New Investments
There were five new commitments to funds made during the
quarter. $14 million was committed to Corsair VI, the mid-market
buyout fund with a focus on financial services in North America and
Europe. This is a firm we have known for a number of years, mainly
through our co-investment in insurance company software business
RGI. We have made three new commitments to funds based in the
Nordic region. EUR10 million was committed to Procuritas VII, the
fourth fund we have backed in a series of highly successful
mid-market buyout funds from this Stockholm based manager. EUR7
million was committed to Verdane Edda III (technology based growth
investments in the upper mid-market of Northern Europe) and EUR8
million to Verdane Capital XI (mid-sized and smaller growth
investments in Northern Europe including secondary portfolios as
well as single assets). We are already invested in the previous
Verdane Edda fund. EUR7.0 million was committed to MED Platform II,
the ArchiMed managed mid-market buyout fund with a focus on
healthcare in North America and Europe.
Three new co-investments have been added during the quarter. The
co-investment portfolio now accounts for 46.7% of the overall
portfolio.
$10.0 million (GBP7.8 million) was invested in Aurora Payment
Solutions, a digital payments solutions provider for over 20,000 US
merchants in multiple sectors including hospitality and transport.
Headquartered in Texas, this investment is led by Corsair Capital,
who as noted above are financial services specialists.
GBP3.9 million was invested in Perfect Image, a Newcastle based
IT services group. The company's client base are SMEs often
undertaking migrations to the Cloud or bolstering their
cybersecurity. The deal is led by Chiltern Capital, a lower
mid-market manager with whom we have co-invested on a number of
occasions.
EUR3.3 million (GBP2.8 million) was invested in Bomaki, a 'sushi
samba' style restaurant chain based in the Milan region of Northern
Italy. The restaurants offer a fusion cuisine combining influences
from Japan and Brazil. The chain starts with nine restaurants and
the plan is to build out to 24 within three years. The deal is led
by Augens Capital who are well known to us from the San Siro
investment (funeral homes). There is also a co-lead investor, Buono
Ventures, who have specific expertise in the restaurant sector.
There were small follow-ons in three co-investments; GBP0.8
million in Canadian adtech company Pathfactory, GBP0.6 million in
Ontario based software company Tier I CRM and GBP0.4 million in
vein visualisation equipment company AccuVein.
The funds in the portfolio initiated several new investments
during the quarter. As has been the case in recent years there is a
strong representation from technology enabled businesses and
companies with a healthcare focus.
FPE II have called GBP0.6 million for Egress, a provider of
migration and managed services enabling mainly NHS and local
authority customers to move to the cloud. Kester Capital called
GBP0.5 million for Optibrium a software company focusing on drug
discovery for the pharmaceuticals sector. MVM V called GBP0.5
million for two companies; Vero Bioscience, the provider of a novel
nitric oxide delivery system with applications for new born babies
and cardiac patients where we are also a co-investor, and OptiNose
a drug delivery company where its product XHANCE treats chronic
sinusitis. In Finland Vaaka III called GBP0.4 million for Medbase a
provider of decision support databases for professionals and
organizations covering for example drug interactions with other
drugs and potential adverse effects.
After the quarter end GBP5 million has been committed to
Northern Gritstone, a new investment company founded by the
Universities of Manchester, Leeds and Sheffield to make investments
in University spin-outs and other growth opportunities in the North
of England. This is an innovative and carefully structured new
venture led by the former Goldman Sachs partner and government
minister Lord O'Neil and Duncan Johnson, formerly of Caledonia
Investments and RJD Partners.
The total investment in co-investments and through fund
drawdowns in the quarter was GBP20.6 million.
Realisations
There were no realisations of co-investments in the quarter but
there were several exits from companies held in the funds
portfolio.
In the UK August Equity IV returned GBP2.9 million from energy
procurement company Zenergi (5.3x cost, 50% IRR). From a range of
funds Inflexion returned GBP2.7 million from compliance risk
management company Alcumus (5.9x cost, 37% IRR). Primary Capital IV
had two exits; railway equipment and services provider Readypower
returned GBP1.4 million (4.6x cost, 39% IRR) and the accredited
online courses company ICS Learn GBP1.1 million (4.4x cost, 49%
IRR). There was a return of capital of GBP1.1 million from our
co-investment in Weird Fish following the partial redemption of
loan stock.
There were a number of good exits in Europe. Astorg VI exited
the Switzerland based Autoform which provides software for use in
sheet metal forming in a sale to Carlyle which returned GBP2.4
million (4.1x cost, 30% IRR). ArchiMed II sold Austrian medical and
veterinary diagnostics company Eurolyser returning GBP1.2 million
(6.0x cost, 79% IRR). Finland based Vaaka II exited the leading
physiotherapy company in that country, Fysio, returning GBP0.5
million (3.3x cost, 21% IRR).
The combined total of realisations for the first quarter was
GBP16.2 million which is almost exactly the same as at this point
last year.
Valuation Changes
The largest change in valuation was an uplift of GBP6.4 million
for our Silverfleet led co-investment in cleanroom consumables
company STAXS, which is being sold. Proceeds, which will be
received imminently, are GBP15.8 million and together with prior
receipts from last year's recapitalisation represents an excellent
6.2x cost and an IRR of 87% and a premium of 68% over the previous
valuation. STAXS has made superb underlying progress which was
enhanced by increased demand during the pandemic. Other uplifts
include for US based Mexican themed restaurant chain Rosa Mexicano
(+GBP1.1 million) where normality is returning to trading and
Astorg VI (+GBP0.8 million) where the Autoform exit noted above has
given a lift. There is a reduction for Ashtead (-GBP1.1 million) to
reflect a carried interest provision.
Financing
The Company is modestly geared as we enter what is likely to be
a challenging economic environment. More than 80% of the borrowing
facility is unused at the time of writing and there are several
realisations at varying stages of completion which should result in
substantial cash inflows over the next few months. It would be
reasonable to expect the currently buoyant exit market to deflate
somewhat given the accumulation of external risks but by how much
and how quickly is far from clear. It is likely that there will be
some buying opportunities and the Company has the resources to take
these judiciously.
Outlook
As noted above the market is processing a number of external
shocks after a particularly positive period for the private equity
sector. Supply chain issues and the oil price rises arising from
the combination of the recovery from the pandemic and the Russian
invasion of Ukraine has reignited the long dormant scourge of
inflation. Traditionally investment in productive assets such as
equity, including private equity, has provided a degree of
protection against the worst effects of inflation. There will
undoubtedly be challenges for many businesses, not least those with
consumer exposure, as the cost of living crisis deepens. Set
against this is a robust appetite for private equity from a wide
range of investors engendered by its strong track record of
delivering returns through many different economic situations and
its propensity to identify businesses experiencing strong secular
growth. The Company's portfolio is deliberately well diversified
and this has been of conspicuous benefit throughout our 23 year
history. Our investment partners are greatly experienced in both
dealing with
adversity and in finding resilient companies at attractive
prices. This is a logical basis for confidence that your Company
can continue to deliver good returns for shareholders over the long
term.
