Private Equity Holding AG / CH0006089921

NEWS RELEASE Zug, October 14, 2024 Net Asset Value as of September 30, 2024 As of September 30, 2024, the Net Asset Value (NAV) per share of Private Equity Holding AG (PEH) stood at EUR 156.71 (CHF 147.59), representing a decrease of -1.2% in EUR (-0.9% in CHF) since August 31, 2024. For the month of September, the portfolio performance was negatively affected by both adverse FX movements and the share price development of various underlying positions, specifically Kaspi, a Kazakhstani fintech firm. While there have been positive valuation adjustments in some of PEH's portfolio funds - most notably Pelion VI and Evolution Technology II - the negative effects outweighed these gains. In September, the portfolio was cash-flow negative with total distributions amounting to EUR 1.3m vs. EUR 2.2m paid into the portfolio. A notable capital call was received from Alpha CEE Opportunity V to fund three new secondary investments. The biggest distribution was received from Abry VII, distributing proceeds from its investment in Alliant Insurance Services, a specialty insurance brokerage firm based in the US. PEH will publish its semi-annual report on November 7, 2024.                                                                 *** Private Equity Holding AG (SIX: PEHN) is a listed investment company for private equity investments. It offers institutional and private investors the opportunity to participate in a simple and tax-efficient manner in a diversified and professionally managed private equity portfolio with selective fund and direct investments.   Income from the portfolio is partially reinvested, as well as passed on to the shareholders as annual distributions.
