Guernsey, Channel Islands, Jan. 31, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- --Net Asset Value of $0.29 per unit as of December 31, 2018--

AP Alternative Assets, L.P. (“AAA”, Euronext Amsterdam: AAA) today released its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2018. AAA invests its capital through, and is the sole limited partner of, AAA Investments, L.P., which is referred to as the “Investment Partnership.”

Highlights

• Net asset value at December 31, 2018 was $22.1 million, or $0.29 per unit,  reflecting a net decrease in net assets of approximately $7.9 million, or $(0.11) per common unit during the three months ended December 31, 2018.  The decrease in net asset value for AAA was due to a decrease in the fair value of the investment in Athene.

Net Asset Value for AAA

At December 31, 2018, AAA had net assets of $22.1 million, including its share of the net assets of the Investment Partnership, as follows:

____________________________

⁽¹⁾ The remaining Athene shares beneficially held by AAA are freely tradeable and are being held to satisfy various legal, administrative, carried interest obligations and other expenses that may be incurred by or on behalf of AAA.  The net asset value does not include the accrual of these future expenses that may be incurred by AAA as they cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. If it is determined that any such Athene shares are no longer required for such expenses, the remaining Athene shares or cash equivalents will be distributed to AAA unitholders unless the number of such Athene shares or cash equivalents is de minimis, in which case they will be given to charity. The net asset value also includes $6.7 million of prepaid management fees that will continue to be amortized over the life of the service period through December 31, 2020. If a decision is made to wind up AAA prior to the end of the service period, AAA will accelerate the amortization of the prepaid management fee.
