14 February 2025
2024 was a landmark year for CVC, marked by our successful IPO and the completion of our acquisition of CVC DIF and the final stake in CVC Secondary Partners, which expanded and diversified our business. Across 2024, we saw a strong recovery in investment activity, and we are pleased with the overall resilience of our investment portfolios, albeit we remain cautious on the near-term outlook for exits. We continue to actively progress our various fundraises, including an acceleration of our Private Wealth offering with the recent launch of CVC-PE to complement our CVC-CRED offering, and we anticipate growing further our Private Wealth platform over the next twelve months.

FPAUM for Growth Funds and certain Credit vehicles includes the committed capital or invested capital of co-invest sidecars.
The Group considers FPAUM to be a meaningful measure of the Group's capital base upon which it earns management fees and uses the measure in assessing the operating, budgeting and other strategic decisions.

IRR: internal rate of return
SOF FUNDS INFORMATION: The SOF Funds account for their investments using a threemonth lag, updated for the SOF Funds share of capital contributions to and distributions from the underlying investments and material look through public company exposure. The threemonth lag is due to the timing of financial information received from the investments held by the SOF Funds. The SOF Funds primarily invest in private equity funds, which generally require at least 90 days following the calendar year end and 60 days following quarter end to present financial information.
