WHAT WE STAND FOR

LUXEMPART is a Luxembourg listed investment company with nearly 30 years of existence and an estimated net asset value of € 2.1 billion as at 30 June 2022. Our core team of 25 professional and support staff is based in Luxembourg and actively covers our target markets of France, Benelux, DACH region and Northern Italy.

Luxempart's investment strategy is built on two pillars:

  • Direct Investments : minority and majority stakes in midsized companies in Continental Europe, either privately held (private equity) or listed.
  • Investment Funds : indirect investment activity via thirdparty private equity funds in venture, growth capital and buy-outs, both in Europe and increasingly worldwide.

Luxempart, with its stable shareholders, promotes:

FOR THEIR SHAREHOLDERS

  • A resilient and diversified portfolio of growing companies
  • A direct access to private equity investments managed by a seasoned team
  • An access to top-class private equity funds operating world-wide
  • A steadily increasing dividend
  • •A first class governance of a listed company.

FOR THEIR BUSINESS PARTNERS

  • Tailor-made solutions for family businesses and managers • An entrepreneurial and industrial mindset
  • An active support on all major strategic decisions and capital to foster growth initiatives or to resist hard times
  • A flexible investment horizon with a long-term approach, aligned on Luxempart management remuneration scheme, based on long-term value creation
  • The ability to help national champions to become truly European and develop worldwide

DIRECT INVESTMENTS ARE REALISED ALONG THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES

  • Investment amounts from € 25 to € 100 million (in equity)
  • Investment in privately held and listed companies
  • No exit pressure with investment horizons well beyond traditional private equity funds
  • Supportive, hands-on approach
  • No sector focus but affinity for financial services & insurance, telecommunication, security, healthcare and industrials.

Luxempart shareholders and management believe in value creation through patient involvement and a shared vision with our partners. We foster an ambitious team spirit, led by young and talented colleagues, that are close to our strategic markets, and that are empowered early on.

Our track record over the last twenty-five years has been positive with a group IRR above 15% and with a regular dividend increase.

MESSAGE TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholders,

In times like these, it might be considered good to get back to our roots. In our case, just turn back a few pages. Some of you might skip these opening statements, reminding you of what we stand for. But we believe that they clearly underline what Luxempart represents: investing with a long-term view in successful businesses and funds. We think that it is important that we continue to foster our core values: entrepreneurial spirit, long-term view and cautiousness allow us to fare rather well in times of high inflation, war, drought and scarcity. Luxempart has always strived to develop your capital in a continuingly cautious approach. We have taken this approach a step further since several years, by increasing the diversification, both geographical and sectorial, of our portfolio. We invest in solid companies led by exceptional entrepreneurs and management and choose established fund managers with

strong track records. This allows to benefit from upsides, yet strongly limits the downside risks for our portfolio.

Even though we are unhappy to have to report a Net Asset Value that decreases by -4.2% to € 2,078m as of June 30, 2022, we consider this to be a performance that compares favorably to overall markets. The MSCI Europe Mid Cap Index, which we consider our benchmark lost ca. 21.5% over the first half of 2022. Furthermore, we have significantly increased our dividend pay-out in 2022, which brings our overall performance, dividend included, to -2.6% in the first six months of 2022.

This relative outperformance has been achieved while maintaining a consistent approach to valuation principles. While some portfolio companies' valuations are below their levels of December 2021, these decreases are related to an overall decrease in valuation levels in public stock markets, which serve as a reference. Our portfolio companies have overall increased their financial results in the last twelve months. The weighted average growth of our portfolio's EBITDA over the last twelve months stands at 6.8%1 compared to December 2021. The valuation of our Direct Investment Portfolio stands at a weighted average multiple2 of 9.6x, decreasing compared to the end of 2021 (10.3x). This decrease in multiple is lower than the average evolution of the stock markets, and translates the fact that our portfolio is invested in sectors that are less subject to inflationary tensions and supply chain constraints. Ca. 51% of our portfolio is invested in Financial services and Healthcare, which are sectors that have shown good dynamics in 2022. Other services (including construction and telecom) have also shown a good resilience, both in terms of sales development as well as margin levels.

In addition to stringent selection of resilient sectors, we also have intensified the work on enhancing our existing portfolio companies' growth, by pursuing an active buyand-build strategy. Evariste has signed 5 acquisitions in the first half of 2022, which were completed in July 2022. These acquisitions, on a full-year basis, will add ca. € 56m to sales and ca. € 5m to annual EBITDA. Another 2 acquisitions have been signed in the period between June 30 and today. iM Global Partner has made a strategic acquisition of one of the leading credit investors in the USA via its existing partner Polen Capital and Sogetrel has made its first acquisition abroad, by acquiring a German company active in its core business and well-placed to benefit from the roll-out of fibre-optics networks in Germany. Eventually, Enoflex was able to both broaden its product portfolio and geographic reach by completing the acquisition of a very complementary company based in Italy and Mexico.

ANNUAL 2019REPORT Despite the uncertain environment, we have pursued our investment activity and have made two new investments, both alongside reputable professional private equity investors. We consider that both Metalworks and Salice represent important growth potential over the years to come and should allow us to deploy additional capital to fund their external growth strategy. Metalworks, one of the two transactions, is well known to Luxempart, since it was for several years in the portfolio of Bravo Capital Partners, one of our closely related fund managers. Furthermore, based on our existing position and knowledge of Technotrans, we have decided to increase our investment and have announced crossing the 20% ownership threshold in this listed company. This goes along with the election of a Luxempart representative to the Supervisory Board at this year's AGM.

In parallel, we have continued to pursue our efforts to reduce the portfolio, by exiting Vivalto Home and Novotergum (both announced in early 2022), but also EduPro (sold to Invision). These exits have generated cash proceeds above € 119.6m which add to our already comfortable cash position. The IRR generated with these investments remains well above our long term target of 12-15%.

Given the uncertain environment, our investment activity was thus less important than our sales activity, and proceeds from divestment exceed investment cash flows, allowing to translate a portion of our portfolio into cash, to be held readily available for new projects which we are confident will materialize over the next months. In awaiting this, our cash position of € 414m adds to our resilience.

The same is true for our Investment Fund Activity. Its activity was cash-generative over the first half of 2022, with new investments at € 32m, but redemptions from funds amounting to € 37m. These redemptions mainly stem from our historic investments in closely associated European mid-market funds. Bravo Capital Partners, for instance, has sold two major companies out of its first fund: Arbo and Metalworks, generating significant returns for these very dynamic Italian medium-sized companies.

The Investment Fund team also pursues its long-term strategic goal to diversify its portfolio by adding new commitments outside of Europe and in a larger scope of strategies such as venture capital and growth investments. Luxempart has taken € 68m of new commitments in the first half of 2022, focusing on North American or global strategies, but also in selected niches in Europe (mainly in venture capital and growth). 82% of its new commitments are outside Europe and 45% are related to venture and growth.

Uncertainty will mostly prevail for the remainder of the year. But we are convinced of certain elements that make us believe that Luxempart will fare well. Our portfolio continues to grow its profits and is only marginally exposed to inflation-linked risks. Our significant cash position, weighing on our performance in times of strong growth today acts as a down-side protection. And it will allow us to seize opportunities in the short term. Acting as a financially strong shareholder to our portfolio companies, we allow them as well to seize opportunities and to actively try to consolidate their markets.

MAIN EVENTS SINCE 30 JUNE 2022

There are no specific elements to disclose after June 30th, 2022.

We continue to closely monitor our holdings in the context of the economic and geopolitical developments in Europe and the rest of the world, which could create further pressure on inflation and commodity supplies. We therefore remain vigilant for the second half of the year, as we cannot rule out major shocks.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Luxempart's main stakeholders are strongly attached to Environmental, Social and Governance aspects. More than ever we are convinced that responsible investing will be key to address the challenges of our changing world. A reasoned use of resources and a respect for the people we work with, will increasingly become the drivers of sustainable businesses, that will last and perform in the long run.

This ESG behaviour must accompany us during our diligence phases in the selection of our new portfolio companies, and during our whole journey as a mindful shareholder of those companies, instilling good practices among them, and providing them the right tools to monitor their ESG efforts and achievements.

In this respect, at Luxempart we have started a strategic project around the practical implementation of ESG within our whole organization. We have created an ad hoc "ESG Manager" function internally, led by a "Sustainability Committee", we have defined 16 key ESG criteria that are relevant for us and are now focusing on the implementation of those criteria among all levels of our organization. All transactions, both in Direct Investment and Investment Funds, have included since late 2021 a due diligence chapter on ESG principles, that will be further refined in the coming months.

MANDATORY DISCLOSURES

Luxempart faces specific risks due to the nature of its activities. Each of its investments is exposed to particular risks, mainly due to the business, location, regulation, customer base and strategic decisions. Luxempart implements governance rules and closely liaises with the management of the major portfolio investments to mitigate the risk factors.

A major risk of Luxempart on all levels of the group is the market risk. All our assets are impacted by the evolution of financial markets and macroeconomic indicators (stock markets, comparable transactions of peer companies, valuation multiples, interest rates…).

The liquidity risk is limited for Luxempart, as the Company is not an investment fund submitted to exit constraints. Our Group is a patient investor who is not driven by the financial markets and their volatility cycles. Our investment teams and our Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee closely follow the evaluation of the portfolio investments. Investment and divestment decisions depend more on specific company analysis than financial market or fund investment cycles.

The financial risks (market, interest rate, foreign exchange, credit and liquidity risk) are disclosed in the note 25 of the Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2021. The Group management risk system is described in more detail in the same note. There has been no significant change in the financial risks of the Group since 31 December 2021.

As at 30 June 2022, Luxempart holds a total of 547,613 own shares which corresponds to 2.65% of the issued share capital for a book value of € 16.9m.

The Board of Directors' responsibilities are determined by law. In that regard, it is responsible for the true and fair preparation and presentation of the annual and half-year interim financial statements in accordance with European directives, as transposed into Luxembourg law. The Board of Directors considers that it has fully complied with these obligations.

Pursuant to the Law of 11 January 2008 regarding transparency obligations relating to information on issuers whose transferable securities are admitted for trading on a regulated market, we hereby declare that, to our knowledge, the interim financial statements prepared in accordance with the applicable body of accounting standards provide a true and fair view of the Group's assets and liabilities, financial position, and profits and losses, and that the consolidated management report accurately reflects the firm's development and results, and the Group's financial position.
