In November, a key performance driver at a portfolio
level was Vishal Mega Mart ("Vishal"), a leading retailer in India.
At the end of the month, PGPE Ltd's stake in Vishal was valued at
EUR 65.6 million[i], resulting in an uplift of
around 20% compared to the October monthly report. The November NAV
only partially reflects the impact of Vishal's Initial Public
Offering ("IPO") in December. Further information on the IPO is
available in the press release accessible via the following
link. The positive contribution from Vishal was partially
offset by a decrease in the listed share price of KinderCare
Learning Companies, the largest for-profit provider of early
childhood education and care services in the US. Finally, Emeria, a
leading European provider of residential property management
services, was another top contributor during the month.
The company continues to report steady growth,
thanks to its robust acquisition strategy and resilient performance
in core residential real estate services.
PGPE Ltd received distributions totaling EUR 2.8
million, primarily from the final portion of sale proceeds from its
earlier exit of Hofmanns, a Germany-based provider of premium
ready-to-eat frozen meals and tailored catering services to B2B
customers in business canteens, social organizations (e.g. schools,
kindergartens) and hospitals. Partners Group originally acquired
Hofmanns on behalf of its clients in 2014 and worked with
management to drive various growth and operational excellence
initiatives. These included repositioning the Hofmanns brand
towards a modern and sustainable brand proposition, launching a B2C
online sales channel, and digitalization of customer ordering and
internal reporting processes.
The Company recently held its quarterly webcast to
update investors on the developments in the portfolio. The
recording is available via the following
