Paris, 4 May 2010

€11.39 NAV per share at 31 March 2010, up 3.3%

Disposals and strengthening of cash position

Altamir Amboise has signed an exclusivity agreement with VINCI to sell its stake in Faceo, a leading European player in Facility Management. The Company has also announced the future disposal of its stake in Vedici, the 5th largest acute care company in France, as well as the effective sale of one-half of its shares in the Cegid Group to Jean-Michel Aulas' holding company ICMI, at a share price of €21.15.

The expected proceeds from the disposal of these three holdings are in the order of €70m1 , thus enabling Altamir Amboise to repay its Ahau30 financing in full and still have the necessary resources for making new investments.

NAV at 31 March 2010

At 31 March, only listed companies are revalued according to their market price at that date (unlisted companies are revalued twice a year at 30 June and 31 December).

Since the Faceo agreement was signed before the accounts at 31 March were closed, the holding was revalued at the disposal price less 10%, in accordance with Altamir Amboise's valuation methods and the accounting rules in force.

Net Asset Value per share2 rose from €11.03 at 31 December 2009 to €11.39 at 31 March 2010, an increase of 3.3% due entirely to the revaluation of Faceo.

At 31 March 2010, IFRS net assets were €415.8m and included:

  • a portfolio of €438.3m (79% unlisted securities and 21% listed)
  • a net debt of €10.4m: debt stood at €30.0m and cash reserves at €19.6m following the full drawdown of the Ahau30 funding.

The three operations mentioned above form part of the ambitious programme of disposals and new investments that Altamir Amboise has set itself for 2010.
