The number of outstanding shares used for calculation of the Net Asset Value per share amounted to 3,428,834 as of January 31, 2013 (December 31, 2012: 3,442,827). The calculations are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and pursuant to the guidelines of the European Venture Capital Association (EVCA). The Net Asset Values of the fund investments are based on the most recent report of the latest NAV (net asset values) as reported by the funds. Unlisted direct investments are rated at Net Asset Values. The Net Asset Value of listed direct investments is the market value. Based on a composite assessment of all appropriate and applicable indicators of the Net Asset Value, Private Equity Holding AG makes a good faith estimate of the Net Asset Value as of the valuation date. The Net Asset Values are calculated under a going concern assumption. The Net Asset Value of Private Equity Holding AG is computed as of the end of each month and usually published within six trading days after the cut-off date. The different reporting cut-off dates of the individual companies and funds in which participations are held can lead to short-term distortions and cause discrepancies between the published Net Asset Value and the actual total value of Private Equity Holding AG's net assets.
