NAXS AB (publ) Half-year financial report January-June 2020

First half-year 2020

  • Net profit for the first half-year amounted to MSEK -61.0 (14.7).
  • Earnings per share amounted to SEK -5.47 (1.25).
  • Net asset value amounted to MSEK 618 (SEK 55.42 per share) at June 30, 2020, compared to MSEK 710 (SEK 63.63 per share) at December 31, 2019.
  • Net cash amounted to MSEK 207 (SEK 18.60 per share) at June 30, 2020, compared to MSEK 230 (SEK 20.60 per share) at December 31, 2019.
  • The 2020 Annual General Meeting resolved to pay a dividend of 3.00 SEK per share for FY 2019.

Comments by the CEO

The net asset value per share decreased by 12.2% during the second quarter, with nearly half of the decrease stemming from a single portfolio company. The lower net asset value per share reflects the first valuation adjustments made by underlying funds after the Covid-19 outbreak. At the end of the second quarter, NAXS had in excess of 30% of cash on its balance sheet, which leaves the Company well-positioned to take advantage of potential opportunities that might arise in what we expect to be a volatile environment.

Operations

NAXS AB (publ) ("NAXS" or the "Company") is a company listed on NASDAQ Stockholm and investing primarily in private equity funds with a Nordic focus. NAXS may also make direct investments or co-investments alongside private equity or other alternative assets funds. In addition, NAXS may, to a limited extent, make other types of investments. Operations commenced on April 17, 2007, and the Company was listed on First North on May 14, 2007, where it traded until its change of listing to NASDAQ Stockholm on June 8, 2010.

NAXS is the Group's parent company and is headquartered in Stockholm. In addition to the parent company, the Group consists of an operational Danish subsidiary, NAXS A/S, headquartered in Copenhagen, and a Norwegian subsidiary, NAXS Nordic Access Buyout AS, headquartered in Oslo. The Danish subsidiary operates as the holding company for the Group's investments.

Naccess Partners AB has been contracted as the investment advisor to the Danish subsidiary.

Market review

While the financial markets rebounded from their March lows in the second quarter, the medium-term macro outlook remains uncertain. We expect a significant drop in private equity activity in the coming quarters, due to lack of available debt financing and the misalignment of buyers' and sellers' expectations. We also expect fundraising to slow down, at least temporarily, as investors review their private market allocation.

Note 2

Financial assets and liabilities

NAXS's financial instruments consist of fund investments, cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable. Level 3 investments includes only the Company's publicly traded share of the fund holdings / securities of unlisted companies (in some cases, also listed companies). When observable prices are not available for these securities, the fund manager uses one or more valuation techniques (e.g. yield methods or income-based methods), or a combination of techniques, for which sufficient and reliable data are available. Within Level 3, the market approach generally uses earnings multiples of comparable companies, while the income-based approach generally uses the present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors.

For NAXS, the book value of all financial assets and liabilities corresponds to fair value. All amounts are shown in the reported balance sheets.

Definitions and Alternative performance measures

NAXS applies the guidelines issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) for alternative key ratios. Alternative key figures are financial measures of historical or future earnings trend, financial position, financial results or cash flows that are not defined or specified in the applicable rules for financial reporting Alternative key ratios are stated when, in their context, they provide clearer or more indepth information than the measures defined in applicable financial reporting rules. The alternative key figures are derived from the consolidated financial statements. Alternative key ratios are stated when, in their context, they supplement the measures defined in IFRS. The starting point for the provided alternative key figures is that they are used by management to assess the financial development and are thus considered to provide valuable information to analysts and other stakeholders. NAXS regularly uses alternative key ratios as a complement to those key ratios that generally constitute good accounting practice.

Below are definitions and all the alternative key figures used.
