Hardman & Co Research on NB Private Equity Partners: Wider operating company EBITDA margins in 2023

We reviewed NBPE’s business model in our initiation, Co-investments generating superior performance. We noted the high-secular-growth and downside-resilient investee companies, the value added by GPs, the good co-investing cashflow and return profile and the value added by the NB. The 2023 results confirmed all these trends. The key numbers were i) NAV p/sh $28.07 (£22.02), ii) private portfolio +5.3% in 2023 on a constant currency basis, iii) EV/LTM EBITDA 14.9x, and iv) debt/EBITDA 5.3x. The portfolio company weighted average LTM growth in revenue and EBITDA was 11.4% and 15.2%, respectively, with margins widening despite market challenges.
