Comments by the CEO

NAXS net asset value per share decreased by 4.9% to SEK 72.46 during Q3 2024. The company reported a net loss of MSEK 41.5 for the quarter, mainly due to a decline in the value of private equity fund investments. Net cash stood at MSEK 222, following repayments from private equity funds.

During the quarter, NAXS made a MEUR 1.3 investment in Equip Capital SPV SCSp (“Equip SPV”). Equip SPV is a continuation vehicle established to acquire 2 portfolio companies, Rush and iteam, from Equip Capital Fund I with the aim to build on their successful platforms and support a new phase of growth.

After the end of the Interim period, NAXS increased its commitment to Celero Fund (E) AB by MEUR 1.7, bringing its total commitment to the fund to MEUR 3.2. Celero focuses on the services, consumer goods and niche industrials sectors.
