Oakley Capital Investments Limited
Trading update for the three months ended 30 September 2023
Oakley Capital Investments Limited (1) ("OCI" or the "Company")
today announces its quarterly trading update for the three months
ended 30 September 2023. OCI is a listed investment company
providing consistent, long-term returns in excess of the FTSE
All-Share Index by investing in funds managed by Oakley Capital (2)
("Oakley").
The Oakley Funds(3) invest primarily in unquoted, profitable,
pan-European businesses with recurring revenues, and across four
focus sectors. Oakley's origination capabilities combined with
proven value creation drivers help management teams accelerate
growth and produce consistently superior returns for investors.
Asset growth in spite of challenging macro environment
Highlights for the three months ended 30 September 2023
-- Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share of 679 pence and NAV of GBP1,197 million
-- Total NAV return per share of 2.5% since 30 June 2023 (+16 pence)
-- GBP23 million of new investments
-- EUR190 million commitment to Oakley Capital Origin Fund II
-- Net Cash of GBP222 million and outstanding commitments of GBP1,053 million
NAV growth
The Company's unaudited NAV, based on a revaluation of all
portfolio companies as at 30 September 2023, was GBP1,197 million,
which represents a NAV per share of 679 pence. The total NAV per
share return was 2.5% (+16 pence) since 30 June 2023, and an
increase of 4.5% (+29 pence) since 30 September 2022. The key
contributors to the total NAV return include 14 pence of valuation
gains in the underlying portfolio companies and 5 pence of foreign
exchange gains.
Portfolio company performance
The underlying companies in the portfolio continue to trade
robustly in what remains an uncertain economic environment. This
reflects their resilient business models, typically asset-light
with recurring revenues, strong market positioning and conservative
leverage, as well the strength of the megatrends they invest
behind. Valuation gains were split evenly across a broad range of
companies in each of Oakley's four core sectors: Technology,
Consumer, Education and Business Services.
Transactions
During the period, OCI made look-through investments of GBP23
million which were attributable to portfolio company bolt-on
acquisitions as well as Pixis, an AI-powered marketing platform and
the first investment for Oakley Touring Venture Fund. There were no
divestments during the period.
Oakley's unique origination capabilities continue to generate a
strong investment pipeline. The first of these opportunities,
signed in the period and expected to complete in December 2023, is
the acquisition of Flemming Dental, Excent and Artinorway Group, to
form one of the leading dental laboratories groups in Europe. OCI's
look-through investment in the business is anticipated to be
c.GBP35 million.
Cash & commitments
OCI had net cash of GBP222 million as at 30 September 2023 and a
GBP175 million revolving credit facility, which was undrawn at that
date. During the period, OCI made a EUR190 million commitment to
Oakley Capital Origin Fund II, which will continue the strategy of
its predecessor fund, backing tech-enabled businesses across
Europe's lower mid-market. Including this commitment, total
outstanding Oakley Fund commitments at the period end were GBP1,053
million. The Board continues to closely monitor anticipated fund
drawdowns and projected liquidity and when appropriate will make
further share buybacks.
