MONTHLY LP & FUND UPDATE
During the month, the LP did not receive any distributions or capital calls.
As guided in the Fund’s Annual Financial Report (here), during June the RE began reviewing the Fund’s ability to make a distribution to Unitholders. As a reminder to Unitholders, the Fund is designed to be self-liquidating, with all distributions funded through the sale of the underlying assets (portfolio companies). The RE reviewed the Fund’s cash position, any recent and expected portfolio realisations as well as future working capital expenses, and it was determined by both the Manager and the RE that the Fund and the LP’s current cash position was not supportive of a distribution at this time.
While the underlying funds are actively pursuing exit activity for their portfolio companies, each being aware of the ages of their respective funds, exit activity during 2024 has been more subdued than desired due to the continued high interest rate environment. PE Managers prefer not to be forced sellers, and instead to wait for more favourable market conditions to sell their assets, which we believe is in the best interests of Unitholders. While we were unable to announce a distribution in July, the Manager and RE will continue to review the Fund’s cash position on an ongoing basis, and while it has been guided that distributions will be reviewed each six-months, we will consider ad-hoc distributions when and if appropriate.
We wish to inform Unitholders that tax statements for the 2024 FY will be sent to Unitholders via their preferred method by the end of August 2024. As always, Unitholders are welcome to reach out to the team with any questions via email at [email protected], or by calling +61 3 9691 6110.
