In addition, €2.4m was invested during the quarter in the Altaroc Global 2021 (€1.0m) and Altaroc Global 2022 (€1.4m) funds.
Lastly, Altamir invested €1.2m in follow-ons, principally to finance build-ups in Efficy (€0.5m) and IFS (€0.2m) and to strengthen Vocalcom's financial condition (€0.3m).
Over the nine months, divestment proceeds included principally €5.4m in revenue from the full divestment of Duck Creek Technologies, €2.0m from the divestment of the remaining shares of Shriram (two transactions carried out via the Apax VIII LP fund), and €7.9m in sundry revenue.
During the third quarter, sundry revenue of €3.2m was recognised, related principally to Authority Brands's dividend recap (€1.7m) and to the refinancing of Ole Smoky (€1.0m).
