Deutsche Beteiligungs - Lower portfolio earnings but on higher multiples
Deutsche Beteiligungs (DBAG) saw a partial rebound of its investment portfolio value in Q320 due to higher market multiples. While this had a €60.6m net positive impact in 9M20, it was more than offset by reduced earnings forecasts for DBAG’s portfolio companies, especially in its core sectors (eg automotive). As a result, DBAG’s NAV total return (TR) in 9M20 was a negative 4.8%. Meanwhile, the fund services business delivered a solid €6.6m profit in 9M20 (vs €1.6m in 9M19), which should improve further with the start of DBAG Fund VIII’s investment phase in August (it recently announced it first MBO).Deutsche Beteiligungs is an investment company. Co. raises closed-end private equity funds (DBAG funds) for investments in equity or equity-like financial instruments primarily in non-quoted companies. Co. invests as a co-investor in companies alongside DBAG funds by way of majority takeovers or minority investments. Co. basically structures majority takeovers as so-called management buyouts. Expansion capital financings are made by way of a minority investment, for example, via a capital increase. Geographically, Co. concentrates its investments primarily on companies domiciled in German-speaking regions.
