Explanation of the figures (consolidated figures)1

Excellent half-year result of EUR 85.1 million

For the first six months of FY 2016-2017, Gimv reports a net profit (group share) of EUR 85.1 million, compared with a net profit of EUR 64.9 million for the first half of FY 2015-2016. Around 4/5 of this result consists of the realised capital gains on the divestments of the past half-year, and the balance of the unrealised capital gains on the portfolio.

Realised net capital gains in the first half of FY 2016-2017 amount to EUR 71.8 million (EUR 26.8 million in the first half of FY 2015-2016). 91% of these net capital gains were realised in the four investment platforms, with EUR 51.0 million coming from the Smart Industries platform, EUR 9.9 million from the Connected Consumer platform, EUR 4.1 million from the Sustainable Cities platform, and EUR 0.3 million from the Health and Care platform. Finally, EUR 6.5 million of capital gains were realised (mostly) on the distributions from the third party funds.

Net unrealised gains totalled EUR 14.5 million (versus EUR 45.6 million in the first half of FY 2015-2016). These gains were concentrated in Smart Industries (EUR 14.3 million), and Health & Care (EUR 8.1 million). Sustainable Cities (EUR -1.9 million), Connected Consumer (EUR - 0.8 million) as well as third party funds and other investments2 (EUR -5.2 million), however, produced negative contributions.

The unrealised net capital gains are a direct consequence of the application of the prevailing international private equity valuation rules. These net unrealised capital gains are due primarily to a number of positive elements: (i) an increase in the stock market price of a number of shareholdings (EUR 12.4 million), (ii) the better results in the majority of shareholdings (EUR 8.5 million), (iii) a decrease in the net financial debt in our shareholdings (EUR 8.0 million), (iv) the first revaluation of a number of shareholdings (EUR 3.3 million), and (v) a small increase in the value of the third-party funds (EUR 0.3 million). These positive effects are partly undone by a number of negative elements: (vi) negative exchange rate effects (EUR -0.2 million), (vii) lower multiples for unlisted shareholdings (EUR -2.5 million), (viii) an exceptional write-down (EUR -5.7 million) and (ix) a number of smaller value adjustments2 (combined EUR -9.6 million).

The other operating result3 for the first half of FY 2016-2017 came out at EUR 13.7 million, compared with EUR -4.3 million in the corresponding period of the previous FY. The main factor here is the tripling of other operating revenue (42.1 million versus 14.3 million), reflecting a substantial increase in dividends received (mainly from the Gimv-XL fund). Operating costs (incl. transaction costs) amounted to EUR 28.4 million.

1 All income statement-related figures are compared with the figures for the first half of the 2015-2016 financial year. Balance-sheet related figures are compared with the situation at 31 March 2016.

2 This reduction in value is mostly due to the payment of a dividend at the level of Gimv-XL Partners.

3 Dividends, interest, management fees, turnover and other operating income, after deducting services and other goods, personnel costs, amortization of intangible fixed assets, depreciation of land, buildings and equipment, and other operating costs.

The net financial result for the half-year is EUR 0.6 million positive, somewhat lower than the corresponding period of the previous financial year, reflecting mainly the lower interest rates on cash investments.

After deducting tax (EUR -2.9 million) and minority interests (EUR -12.7 million), Gimv realised for the first half of FY 2016-2017 a net profit (group share) of EUR 85.1 million.

Further rejuvenation of the portfolio with eight new shareholdings

In the first half of FY 2016-2017, Gimv undertook in all EUR 116.0 million of on-balance sheet investments (versus EUR 20.1 million in the first half of the previous financial year). On top of this an additional EUR 12.7 million were invested via the co-investment funds (as minority interests), bringing the total investments (on balance sheet and via the co-investment funds) to EUR 128.7 million (or a little more than three times the amount for the first half of FY 2015- 2016). In the first half there were new investments in Acceo, Arplas, Endostim, G-Therapeutics, Joolz, Real Impact Analytics, Spineart, and Summa. There were also follow-on investments in, among others, Brakel, Ecochem, Jenavalve, OTN and Topas Therapeutics.

Record divestments

In the first half of FY 2016-2017 Gimv sold its shareholdings in, among others, Altaïr/Brunel, Greenpeak, Lampiris, Leyton, Onedirect, Pragma II fund, Punch Powertrain, and Vandemoortele. There were also a number of distributions from the third-party funds (almost double last year's amount). In this way Gimv received a total of EUR 341.8 million. Additional divestments via the co-investment funds (minority interests) amounted to EUR 300.7 million, bringing total divestments (on balance sheet and via co-investment funds) to EUR 642.5 million.

On top of the sales proceeds of EUR 341.8 million, the sold shareholdings generated in the first half of FY 2016-2017 EUR 1.1 million of dividends, interest and management fees. In this way, sold shareholdings produced a total of EUR 342.9 million. On 31 March 2016 these divestments represented a total carrying value of EUR 270.6 million and an investment cost of EUR 122.6 million. Consequently, the sales generated 26.7% more (EUR 72.3 million) than their carrying value at 31 March 2016 (measured at fair value in the consolidated figures). Over the entire period the realised money multiple on these sold shareholdings is 3.7x.

Portfolio represents over 70% of total assets

At 30 September 2016 the balance sheet totalled EUR 1263.1 million (compared with EUR 1230.3 million at 31 March 2016). The portfolio is valued at EUR 895.4 million compared with EUR 1013.9 million at 31 March 2016. The decrease in the total portfolio is relatively limited, especially taking into account the record level of divestments. This is explained by the EUR 116.0 million in new investments, in addition to the rise in value of the shareholdings in the existing portfolio.

Net cash position amounts to a quarter of total assets

Gimv's net cash position at 30 September 2016 was EUR 349.6 million compared with EUR 192.8 million at 31 March 2016. This increase is explained by the significant divestments in the first half of the year.

Equity (after dividend payment) rises to EUR 1191.0 million or EUR 46.84 per share.

Equity (group's share) (= net asset value) amounted at 30 September 2016 (after dividend payment of EUR 2.45 per share) to EUR 1191.0 million (EUR 46.84 per share), compared with EUR 1167.9 million (EUR 45.93 per share) at 31 March 2016 (prior to dividend payment). The increase in equity during the first half of FY 2016-2017 in conjunction with the dividends paid during the financial year of EUR 62.3 million represents an economic return on equity for the first half of the year of 7.3%, which is higher than the comparable half-year of FY 2015-2016 and again higher than Gimv's long-term return.

Unchanged dividend policy

Gimv strives to maintain its current dividend policy.

Other important events in the first half

In July, Secretary-General Dirk Beeusaert left the company. He is succeeded in the Executive Committee by Edmond Bastijns, who now combines his position of Chief Legal Officer with the post of Secretary-General.

Main events since 30 September 2016 and prospects

  • At the end of the half-year, independent Gimv director Marc van Gelder announced he was resigning his mandate with effect from 1 October. A communication about his successor will be issued in due course.
  • On 25 October, Gimv announced that it has acquired a 40% stake in French software company MEGA International, which helps companies manage the complexity of their organizations by giving them an interactive image of their activities. The group has 300 employees and 2015 sales of EUR 43 million. For the coming years, the focus will be on accelerating growth in the United States, and on the SaaS transformation that is currently underway.
  • In a year of geopolitical tensions we see a very slow economic recovery in the eurozone, but also a temporary stabilization of the economic situation in the emerging economies. This is coupled with uncertainty about the duration and modalities of the unconventional policy measures of the central banks, which have produced price inflation in some asset categories that do not always reflect the developments in the real economy. We are confident, however, that our promising portfolio, which is sufficiently diversified across over various companies and sectors that are each cyclical to a greater or lesser degree, can continue to benefit from this modest economic growth. The portfolio again proved during the past half-year its solidity and value creation potential. The results of our businesses and the value development of the portfolio remain, however, dependent on a number of external

factors. These include (i) the continuing recovery in Europe's economy and the pace of this recovery, (ii) the further economic developments in emerging markets, (iii) the recovery of confidence by governments, savers and consumers, hampered by advancing ageing and budgetary measures, (iv) the geopolitical climate in various regions of the world, (v) the stability of the regulatory environment and the tax treatment of entrepreneurial risk-taking in the markets in which Gimv and our businesses operate, (vi) the stability and liquidity of the financial system, both in terms of valuation levels and for the financing of our companies, (vii) market receptivity to new IPOs and capital transactions, (viii) the appetite of international groups and industry players for further acquisitions, and (ix) the duration and modalities of the liquidity creation programmes of both the FED and the ECB, and thus the room for further impulses for growth, which can have a major impact on financial markets. We must also keep in mind that a number of sectors are facing disruptive development, which brings huge challenges of adapting to them, but at the same time also provides opportunities for companies to reinvent themselves. Assessing the impact of all these for the coming period is therefore particularly difficult.
