Paris, 12 September 2024 – Net Asset Value per share stood at €35.52 as of 30 June 2024: taking into account the dividend payment of €1.08 per share in May 2024, this represents an increase of 2.7% compared with 31 December 2023 (€35.62).
Net Asset Value (shareholders' equity, IFRS basis) stood at €1,296.8 million (vs. €1,300.7 million as of 31 December 2023). The change in Net Asset Value during the first half resulted from the following factors:

Including a positive currency effect of €9.7 million, value creation totalled €66.0 million during the first half of 2024.
All sectors saw an increase in valuations with the exception of Healthcare (-€21.0 million), where companies were affected by inflation, particularly in wage costs.
The rise in the Consumer sector's valuation (+€37.1 million) mainly reflects the very strong performance of THOM (+€32.0 million). The Tech & Telco sector saw a €35.5 million increase in its valuation, and business levels were buoyant overall, particularly at Dstny (+€12.0 million), Graitec (+€9.1 million) and Odin (+€9.0 million), although InfoVista (-€15.3 million) suffered from weaker demand in its market.
Finally, the valuation of the Services sector (+€14.6 million) was boosted by very strong growth at Crystal, which tripled its revenue during the first-half period due to transformative acquisitions completed in 2023 and 2024.
Proceeds from total divestments (€85.2 million) mainly included:
€66.5 million of miscellaneous revenue was also received during the first-half period, mainly from the refinancing of THOM (€59.6 million), the sale of shares in Baltic Classifieds Group (€4.7 million) and the sale of shares in Paycor (€1.7 million).
b) €69.8 million invested and committed during the first half (vs. €37.7 million in the first half of 2023).
In addition, €0.4m was invested via the Apax XI LP fund to take into account the definitive amount paid to acquire WGSN.
As of 30 June 2024, Altamir's individual financial statements show net debt of €51.3 million (vs. €43.2 million as of 31 December 2023 and €16.0 million as of 31 March 2024).
As of 30 June 2024, Altamir had maximum outstanding commitments of €538.5 million (including €78.7 million committed but not yet called).
These amounts, which will be invested before the end of 2026, broke down as follows:
As a reminder, Altamir benefits from an opt-out clause, usable every six months, under which it can adjust the level of its commitment to the Seven2 MidMarket X fund by €100 million.
Seven2 announced the disposal of Europe Snacks, which had been held via the Apax MidMarket VIII fund.
Seven2 also announced the acquisition, via the Seven2 MidMarket X fund, of Dutch company Lumion, which makes very high-quality 3D real-time rendering software that is both sophisticated and highly intuitive, is aimed at architects and designers, and includes a library of almost 10,000 objects, characters and materials.
Apax announced that it had sold Affinipay, which had been held via the Apax X LP fund, along with its remaining shares in Genius Sports Group and Baltic Classifieds Group, both of which had been held via the Apax IX LP fund.
The Apax XI LP and Apax IX LP funds announced that they had jointly made an offer to delist ThoughtWorks. Apax IX LP will retain its 51% stake in the company, while Apax XI LP will acquire all of the company's listed shares.
Apax also announced the acquisition, via the Apax XI LP fund, of Veriforce and Altus Fire & Life Safety, both of which were founded in the United States in 1993:
In the period spanning 2021, 2022, 2023 and the first half of 2024, Altamir exceeded the medium-term objectives (2021-25) that management announced when publishing 2020 full-year results: investments of €201 million per year on average over the period vs. a target of €170m (including follow-on investments), divestment proceeds of €267 million per year on average vs. a target of €230m, and growth in the average EBITDA of portfolio companies of 14.2% vs. a target of at least 7% per year (organic growth).
Management is thus confident that the objectives for the 2021-24 period will be achieved.
Altamir's financial statements (IFRS basis) for the six months ended 30 June 2024 were approved by the Board of Directors of Altamir Gérance on 10 September 2024 and have been audited by the Statutory Auditors.

As of 30 June 2024, Altamir's portfolio was valued at €1,662.1 million, vs. €1,634.1 million as of 31 December 2023. It was composed of 72 companies (vs. 71 as of 31 December 2023). Nine of those companies were publicly traded and represented 1% of the portfolio's fair value (Baltic Classifieds Group, Genius Sports Group, Guotai, Inmarsat, Innovage, Openlane – formerly KAR Global – Paycor, ThoughtWorks and Verint).
The portfolio did not include Zellis, as that acquisition had not yet been completed as of 30 June 2024. However, it did still include Healthium and Idealista, since the divestments of those companies had not been completed as of 30 June 2024.
During the first half of 2024, the companies in Altamir's portfolio posted an increase of 13.1% in their average EBITDA, weighted by the residual amount invested in each company.
The 20 largest investments represented 72% of the total value of the portfolio as of 30 June 2024. They were as follows, in decreasing order:

| Seven2 has announced that it has sold its stake in Europe Snacks to the One Rock Capital Partners fund. |
|---|
| One of the world's leaders in satellite communication services |
| Marlink posted a solid performance in the first half of 2024, with revenue up 3% and EBITDA up 12% compared with the year-earlier period. Revenue from digital services, which is a key driver of its business, rose 35% during the period. |
| In June 2024, Marlink completed the acquisition of Diverto, which added more than 60 cybersecurity specialists to its staff and enabled it to achieve critical mass in these high value-added digital services. |
| International developer and distributor of BIM (Building Information Modelling) software for design, calculation, simulation, manufacturing and collaborative management |
| Graitec maintained its growth in the first half of 2024, with revenue up 13% year-on-year. This reflects its very strong performance as a reseller of Autodesk solutions as well as the impact of acquisitions. EBITDA also rose 13% during the period as a result of strong business levels and greater operational efficiency due to investments made since 2020. |
| Two companies were acquired during the first-half period: Prodware, an Autodesk reseller in France, and IDEATE, a US software publisher, both of which offer significant potential synergies with Graitec's established businesses. |
| One of the principal suppliers of outsourced IT and cloud services in the Netherlands |
| In the first half of 2024, revenue at Odin (excluding the acquisitions of Cloudwise and Global-e) was up 19% year-on year. Excluding non-recurring items and including Cloudwise and Global-e, EBITDA rose 1%, held back by operating expenses incurred to prepare for future growth. |
| At the end of the period, Odin agreed to acquire 2Invision. This acquisition, along with that of Global-e, strengthens Odin's position in the southern Netherlands and gives it a presence in the Belgian market. |

| A leading European vehicle services and insurance solutions company, covering mechanical breakdowns, roadside assistance and maintenance, with a commercial presence in 10 countries |
|---|
| Opteven's revenue rose by 23% in the first half, driven by very strong performances in the Mechanical Breakdown Warranty and Assistance businesses, along with a firm grip on costs. |
| In June, Opteven acquired Multipart, which specialises in Mechanical Breakdown Warranties in the German, Austrian and Swiss markets. The management team intends to maintain the pace of acquisitions and is actively evaluating several potential transactions. |
| A French leader in premium electronic solutions for sensitive sites with high security needs |
| Revenue fell 6% in organic terms in the first half of 2024, mainly because of a high base for comparison resulting from very strong business levels in the first half of 2023. Vitaprotech is continuing to trade well. |
| EBITDA fell compared with the first half of 2023, partly because of lower business levels – and therefore reduced coverage of fixed costs – and ongoing efforts to strengthen central functions in order to support the group's development. |
| In the first half, the company announced that it was acquiring the security business of Identiv, a leading-edge provider of security solutions in the US market. The combination of Vitaprotech and Identiv is intended to create a world leader in security solutions that feature both physical security and cyber protection, supported by the two entities' innovation capabilities and global networks. The transaction is expected to complete in the third quarter of 2024. |
| Leading global provider of network performance software solutions |
| In the first six months of 2024 (i.e. the second half of its 2023/24 financial year), InfoVista experienced sluggish market conditions and sales fell short of its business-plan targets. To improve the situation, management launched several initiatives. It reinforced the management team, implemented a new organisation aimed at improving sales and marketing efficiency, optimised the cost structure and lightened its debt load. |
| Global internet connectivity and managed services provider |
| Expereo's sales and EBITDA rose 1% and 5% respectively in the first half of 2024 compared with the year-earlier period, mainly reflecting continued growth in monthly recurrent revenue (MRR) from direct sales, driven by value-added segments. |

In the 12 months to 31 March 2024, revenue was up 15% year-on-year and EBITDA rose by 16%. This resulted from sound organic growth on the one hand, driven by good sales performance and successful cross-selling, and from the contribution of newly-acquired companies on the other.
Assured Partners continued to carry out an active bolt-on acquisition strategy.
Six and a half years after investment, Entoria's performance is weaker than expected. The company is nevertheless back on a growth track following implementation of a strategic transformation plan in 2021, the results of which started to materialise in 2022.
In the first half of 2024, revenue fell slightly – down 2% compared with the first half of 2023 – because of a higher attrition rate in the Property Insurance portfolio, which arose from a mandatory price increase in 2023. EBITDA was up 3% because of firm control over operating costs, showing that the restructuring plan has been a success.
Entoria is continuing to take an opportunistic approach and an exit process is being explored.
In the first half of 2024, the company's revenue was stable year-on-year, but its recurring Cloud business – which accounts for 80% of its total revenue – posted growth of 3%. A new CEO joined Efficy in January 2024. He has wideranging experience as a CEO of software companies held by private investment funds.
The company is currently studying several potential acquisitions.
In the 12 months to 30 June 2024, revenue was up 4% yearon-year and EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) was up 8%. This reflects both good organic growth and the impact of acquisitions, particularly in Continental Europe, which now accounts for 31% of PIB Group's revenue as opposed to less than 10% when it was acquired by Apax.
Since Apax bought into the company in March 2021, PIB Group has evaluated 75 targets and acquired most of them, including 58 outside the UK.

| Leading provider of outpatient services for mental health problems of light-to-moderate severity |
||
|---|---|---|
| In the first half of 2024, revenue at Mentaal Beter was up 9% year-on-year, mainly due to the larger number of psychologists in its network. |
||
| Profitability was affected by inflationary pressure on wage costs and a lack of available practitioners. |
||
| One of New Zealand's leading online marketplaces | ||
| Trade Me's revenue grew by 3% and its EBITDA by 4%, driven by the Property and Motors segments. Although the macroeconomic context in New Zealand remains weak, the company is continuing to show a high level of resilience. |
||
| European leader in the leasing, installation and maintenance of mobile toilets |
||
| The slowdown in construction in the German market, particularly in the newbuild residential segment, and disappointing business performance in the US affected the company's first-half results, with revenue down 4%. Revenue should stabilise in the second half because of the positive effect of the Paris Olympics and the Euro 2024 football tournament, along with measures taken to improve performance in the US market. |
