Footnotes

Reflects the NAV return of Third Point Investors Limited inclusive of gearing the Company introduced in 2021 and chose to discontinue as of June 2023.

Reflects the total share price return of Third Point Investors Limited.

The net AUM figure for Third Point Investors Limited is included in the AUM of Third Point Offshore Fund, Ltd. In addition to its invested assets, Third Point Investors Limited has a redemption receivable from the Master Fund due to the pending 2024 Redemption Offer. The impact of the 2024 Redemption Offer will be reflected in Net AUM for the May 2024 report.

The sum of long and short exposure percentages and the sum of gross long and short MTD and YTD P&L percentages may not visually add to the corresponding net figure due to rounding. Subtotals of long, short, and/or net exposure percentages and MTD and YTD P&L percentages may not visually match the corresponding subtotal in another section of the report due to rounding.

 

5

Gross P&L attribution does not reflect the deduction of management fees, incentive allocations and any other expenses which may be incurred in the management of the fund.  An investor’s actual return will be reduced by such fees and expenses.  See Part 2A of the Adviser's Form ADV for a complete description of the management fees and incentive allocations customarily charged by Adviser.

 

6

The net P&L figures are included because of the SEC’s new marketing rule and guidance. Third Point does not believe that this metric accurately reflects net P&L for the referenced sub-portfolio group of investments as explained more fully below. Specifically, net P&L attribution reflects the allocation of the highest management fee (2% per annum), in addition to leverage factor multiple, if applicable, and incentive allocation rate (20%), and an assumed operating expense ratio (0.3%), to the aggregate underlying positions in the referenced sub-portfolio group’s gross P&L. The management fees and operating expenses are allocated for the period proportionately based on the average gross exposure of the aggregate underlying positions of the referenced sub-portfolio group. The implied incentive allocation is based on the deduction of management fee and expense ratio from the Fund level gross P&L attribution for the period. The incentive allocation is accrued for each period to only those positions within the referenced sub-portfolio group with i) positive P&L and, ii) if during the current MTD period there is an incentive allocation. In MTD periods where there is a reversal of previously accrued incentive allocation, the impact of the reversal will be based on the previous month’s YTD accrued incentive allocation. The assume operating expense ratio noted herein is applied uniformly across all underlying positions in the referenced sub-portfolio group given the inherent difficulty in determining and allocating the expenses on a sub-portfolio group basis. If expenses were to be allocated on a sub-portfolio group basis, the net P&L would likely be different for each referenced sub-portfolio group, as applicable.

Important Notes and Disclaimers

 

Third Point Investors Limited (the “Company”) is a feeder fund listed on the London Stock Exchange that invests substantially all of its assets in Third Point Offshore Fund, Ltd (“Third Point Offshore”).  Third Point Offshore is managed by Third Point LLC (“Third Point” or “Investment Manager”), an SEC-registered investment adviser headquartered in New York.

 

Unless otherwise stated, information relates to the Third Point Offshore Master Fund L.P. (the "Fund") inclusive of legacy private investments. Exposures are categorized in a manner consistent with the Investment Manager's classifications for portfolio and risk management purposes in its sole discretion.

 

Performance results include the performance of legacy private investments and are presented net of management fees, brokerage commissions, administrative expenses, and accrued incentive allocation, if any, and include the reinvestment of all dividends, interest, and capital gains. While incentive allocations are accrued monthly, they are deducted from investor balances only annually or upon withdrawal. From Fund inception through December 31, 2019, Third Point Offshore Fund, Ltd.'s historical performance has been calculated using the actual management fees, incentive allocations, and expenses paid by the Fund. The actual management fees and incentive allocations paid by the Fund reflect a blended rate of management fees and incentive allocations based on the weighted average of amounts invested in different share classes subject to different management fee and/or incentive allocation terms. Such management fee rates have ranged over time from 1.25% to 3% per annum. The amount of incentive allocations applicable to any one investor in the Fund will vary materially depending on numerous factors, including without limitation: the specific terms, the date of initial investment, the duration of investment, the date of withdrawal, and market conditions.  As such, the net performance shown for the Fund from inception through December 31, 2019 is not an estimate of any specific investor’s actual performance. During this period, had the highest management fee and incentive allocation been applied solely, performance results would likely be lower. For the period beginning January 1, 2020, the Fund’s historical performance shows indicative performance for a new issues eligible investor in the highest management fee (2% per annum) and incentive allocation rate (20%) class of the Fund, who has participated in all side pocket private investments (as applicable) from March 1, 2021 onward. Net performance reflects the deduction of operating expenses paid by the Fund during the period. An individual investor’s performance may vary based on timing of capital transactions. The inception date for Third Point Offshore Fund, Ltd. is December 1, 1996. All performance results are estimates and past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. All information provided herein is for informational purposes only and should not be deemed as a recommendation to buy or sell securities. All investments involve risk including the loss of principal. This transmission is confidential and may not be redistributed without the express written consent of Third Point LLC and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to purchase any security or investment product. Any such offer or solicitation may only be made by means of delivery of an approved confidential offering memorandum. The Funds’ performance information shown within includes net gains and losses from “new issues.” The market price for new issues is often subject to significant fluctuation, and investors who are eligible to participate in new issues may experience significant gains or losses. An investor who invests in a class of Interests that does not participate in new issues may experience performance that is different, perhaps materially, from the performance reflected above. All performance results are estimates and should not be regarded as final until audited financial statements are issued.

 

While the performance of the Fund has been compared here with the performance of well-known and widely recognized indices, whose performance reflects the investment of dividends, the indices have not been selected to represent an appropriate benchmark for the Fund whose holdings, performance and volatility may differ significantly from the securities that comprise the indices. Historical net performance for Third Point Offshore Fund, Ltd. is available upon request. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
