September delivered strong performance driven by value creation across portfolio companies. This performance, which also resulted in a NAV total return of 2.1%, was the primary contributor to the third quarter as the combined performance of July and August was broadly flat. The month also marked an important milestone for PGPE Ltd with its inclusion in the FTSE 250 index as of the close of business on Friday, 19 September 2025.
At the portfolio level, one of the largest value drivers was United States Infrastructure Corporation ("USIC"), a US-based provider of underground utility locating services. USIC's performance reflects improved cost efficiencies, the implementation of operational initiatives, and efficiency gains, as well as contributions from the acquisition of Heath Consultants' Advanced Gas Operations business. The company also advanced several key technology initiatives, including the rollout of Locate 360, a GPS-based data platform.
PGPE Ltd invested EUR 9.6 million in MPM Products ("MPM"), a UK-based global pet food company, in a transaction valuing the business at an enterprise value of approximately GBP 500 million. MPM is known for its premium wet cat food brands - Applaws, Reveal, and Encore - which are sold in over 50 countries through both e-commerce and retail channels. Partners Group will partner with MPM's management team to accelerate growth and transform the company into a global leader in premium wet cat food. The business plan focuses on expanding sales in core markets, entering new geographies, strengthening brand development, building e-commerce capabilities, and enhancing supply chain resilience.
Additionally, PGPE Ltd invested EUR 4.0 million as part of a joint investment in a global leader in visibility and safety technologies for medium and heavy-duty trucks, trailers, and commercial vehicles. Together with its investment partners, Partners Group will support the company in leveraging its unique market position and channel relationships to build on its demonstrated track record of above-market organic growth, scale its fast-growing digital segment, and pursue selective value-adding acquisitions.
Ends.
