DeA Capital - Strong H118 investment return and cash flow

DeA Capital experienced slightly weaker assets under management (AUM) in H118, driven by Q2 liquidation of real estate assets by maturing funds, but management expects this to reverse in H2. The returns on co-investment in funds managed were very positive, generating NAV gains and strong cash flow to support the continuation of attractive distributions and further investment in growth of the alternative asset management (AAM) platform. The shares are yielding more than 9% and trade at a discount of more than 30% to our adjusted NAV of €1.91 per share.
