Sofina Newsletter 15: NAVps up 12% y/y aided by recovery across PE & V...

ENAV grew by 12% y/y and came in at €10.1bn or €307ps. We see the NAV growth as further evidence of operational excellence of portfolio companies and rebound in both activity and valuations across PE and VC. NAV growth was mainly driven by Sofina Growth which rose, during 2H FY24, by 15.8% to ~€2.2bn. As expected, EG Software is now one of the top-10 investments in the portfolio. During FY24, Sofina invested in Cyera ($3bn valuation), Finova Capital ($728m valuation) and Vivobarefoot while parti...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update November 2024 – Adding Azelis – Removing ...

With 2 changes in our Dynamic Top Pick list (we add Azelis and we remove Solvay) we maintain a defensive stance on the market for 2H24. The long anticipated interest rate cuts by central banks have finally started. The Trump election victory in the US does not bode well for European stocks as he favours a protectionist course. Although industrial companies with a US base could actually benefit. Cleantech names with exposure to the US could also suffer (unless owned by E.Musk). We expect the US ...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update October 2024 – Adding NN Group

We maintain a defensive stance on the market for 2H24. The long anticipated expectations for interest rate cuts by central banks will finally come to pass. The election fever in the US is reaching boiling point and the conversations are becoming more polarised than before. Also corporate profit growth in Europe slows and the French elections have cast a negative spell. In Germany by-elections in the Eastern part showed a shift to extreme right and left that will make budget decisions even more ...

In this September update of our Dynamic Top Pick List we make 4 changes. •We include Cofinimmo in our Dynamic Top Pick List after our recent upgrade from Accumulate to Buy. We expect the name to outperform in a decreasing interest rate environment given its relatively high leverage and cheap valuation. We also believe the risk of a dilutive equity raise eased when the FY24 capex decreased from € 320m to € 250m. The management stays disciplined in its capex program and continues to focus on asse...

Sofina Newsletter 14: NAVps up 4.4% & A Cautiously Positive Outlook

During 1H FY24, Sofina's NAVps came in at €286.0, up 4.4% vs. €274.0 during FY23-end. The much awaited uptick in NAVps comes after 2 consecutive HY numbers that were flat or slightly declining. While the value of Sofina Growth remained flat, every other sub-portfolio contributed to the increase in NAVps. In particular, value of LT Min. stakes rose the most by ~14.0% to €3.2b. The strong performance across the portfolio was due to organic growth at portfolio companies, higher multiples, and stake...
