Earnings Release • Oct 29, 2009

Paris, 29 October 2009

Continued NAV per share growth over the third quarter of 2009

Net Asset Value per share¹ came to €10.85 at 30 September 2009, compared with €10.11 at 30 June 2009, up 7.4% over the third quarter and 10.7% since the beginning of the year.

The NAV growth is explained by the increase in the share prices of the listed portfolio companies, notably Altran Technologies, GFI Informatique and Séchilienne-Sidec. Indeed, it is reminded that only the listed companies are revalued at 30 September, while the unlisted companies are revalued twice a year at 30 June and 31 December.

On 30 September 2009, the Commercial Court of Paris approved the safeguard plan of Financière Hélios, which is the reference shareholder of Séchilienne-Sidec. This plan sets out repayment terms for Financière Hélios' banking debt, which amounts to approximately €140m. Interest conditions on the debt remain unchanged, but without reference to any stock market ratio.

At 30 September 2009, IFRS Net Assets totalled €396.3m, of which:

• €409.8m of portfolio assets (76% in unlisted securities and 24% in listed securities)
• €10.0m of net debt, including €7.3m drawdowns from available facilities (bank credit lines and Ahau 30 financing² ).
