INTRODUCTION Dear Investor The market pullback during the third quarter of 2014 resulted in mixed valuation outcomes across the four Old Mutual Private Equity funds of funds. The weaker comparable multiples fed through to valuations across all the funds. However, through their offshore private equity exposure, OMMMPEF2 and OMMMPEF3 benefitted from US dollar strength during the quarter. The FTSE/JSE All Share Index was down -2.1% for the quarter.

While weaker comparable multiples negatively affected valuations and performance, good returns were achieved on two assets within the underlying portfolios that were exited during the quarter, namely Libstar and Rhodes Foods. This re-emphasises our expectation for good performance in future when the underlying portfolio companies reach maturity and are realised.

inception returns for OMMMPEF1 on an internal rate of return (IRR) or money-weighted basis (all other performance calculations in this report are on a time-weighted basis). For those who invested in OMMMPEF1 at its inception, their IRR has been an impressive 27.2% per annum to 30 September 2014. There are 15 companies still to be realised before this Fund matures, which will result in further cash distributions to investors. OMMMPEF2 increased by 0.3% during the quarter and 17.6% over the past year. The largest positive contributors were Lereko Metier and Actis. Although this Fund was challenged by the global crisis at its outset, it has delivered pleasing annualised returns of 17.8% over three years and 15.5% over five years. OMPESF returned -5.8% for the quarter and 3.4% over the past year. This was mainly due to lower comparable multiples across the remaining six underlying portfolio holdings, including weaker earnings from Consol. We expect the future volatility of returns from quarter to quarter to remain high given the concentrated number of holdings in this Fund. The sale of these remaining holdings over the next two to three years is expected to enable the Fund to achieve its CPI + 10% benchmark and will result in cash distributions to investors. OMMMPEF3: delivered 0.8% during the quarter and 6.5% (after tax and fees) over the past 12 months. One of the unique features of our multi-manager funds is the degree of immediate private equity exposure at inception (in other words, there are underlying funds that are already invested in companies). This has resulted in an annualised after-tax return of 7.4% since inception 15 months ago. This Fund is currently open to new investors.

OMMMPEF1 returned -5.1% in the third quarter and was up 8.2% over the past 12 months. The returns over three years have been relatively muted. However, more assets are reaching maturity, which should result in performance-unlock as they are sold. OMMMPEF1 has made two cash distributions to investors since 2010. Given that investors have had the benefit of being able to reinvest these proceeds elsewhere, we calculated the since-

to the rescue in some form or the other. The financial problems experienced by parastatals are not limited to Eskom, as SAA and the SABC, among others, might also need further assistance from the state. Incoming macro-economic data also remains pretty weak, although early data does point to a moderate acceleration in activity in the third quarter from the slow 0.6% GDP growth recorded in the second quarter of the year. Still, growth forecasts continue to be revised lower for this year and next, and consensus growth forecasts for 2014 are now little over 1%, with a moderate rebound to little more than 2% seen in 2015. Risks to these forecasts remain skewed to the downside.
Rian le Roux | Chief Economist at Old Mutual Investment Group After trading sideways around R10.70 to the US dollar for the previous three months, the rand slumped in September, ending the month at R11.28/US$. While the stronger dollar was mostly responsible for the slide, the rand also ended the month weaker, although to a lesser extent, against most of the other major currencies.
Inflation stuck at top end of target range
Bleak outlook for already large trade deficit South Africa’s twin deficits remain uncomfortably large. August saw the release of yet another large trade deficit and, with the monthly average deficit for the first two months of the third quarter running at -R11.6 billion versus -R6.7 billion a month during the second quarter, early evidence points to an even further widening in the overall current account deficit in the third quarter from the already large 6.2% of GDP recorded in the second quarter. Moreover, with commodity prices, especially precious metal and iron ore prices, plummeting over the past few months, it is hard to see the deficit narrowing anytime soon in the absence of a sharp reduction in import demand. Fiscal data for the first five months of the fiscal year is equally concerning as the weak economy has finally started to negatively affect tax revenue growth. The latter was running at only 6.9% growth, compared to a budget target of 8.8%. If these trends continue, the deficit for the full 2014/15 fiscal year will exceed the 4% of GDP budget target by a half percentage point or more. In addition to the growing squeeze on the fiscus, Eskom’s financial problems continue to mount and Government will have to come
In addition to weak real economy numbers, inflation remains outside the Reserve Bank’s 3% to 6% target range, with the August number coming in at 6.4%. While we think inflation will gradually drift lower over the next year or so, barring a full-blown slump in the rand, it is still set to remain sticky around the top end of the target range. Overall, the South African macro-economic landscape remains highly problematic, characterised by very weak growth, little employment creation, sticky inflation, troublesome deficits, an increasingly more difficult external environment and a lack of decisive policy action on the part of government to propel the economy onto a higher growth path. Unless urgent action is taken soon to raise the economy’s growth potential, South Africa sovereign credit ratings will remain under downward pressure. ECONOMIC Outlook Concerns are still mounting over SA’s deteriorating medium-term growth prospects and the negative impact this could have on both job creation prospects and the already pressured fiscal situation. The need for urgent growth-enhancing economic reforms is becoming ever more imperative.

Based on the 30 September 2014 untaxed unit price of R1.53, OMMMPEF2 has delivered a net return of 0.3% for the quarter, 17.6% for the 12-month period ended 30 September 2014 and a compound annual return of 6.2% since inception (84 months). The largest positive contributors to performance for the quarter were Lereko Metier and Actis. Despite generally weaker comparable multiples, the maturing assets within the portfolio resulted in value unlock in the portfolio. Alexander Forbes (Ethos) was listed during the third quarter, while Rhodes Food (Capitalworks) and Libstar (Lereko Metier) were listed and sold, respectively, shortly after quarter-end.

Old Mutual Multi-Manager Private Equity Fund 2 OMMMPEF2 Performance The graphs that follow illustrate OMMMPEF2’s annualised net return across the three tax classes over various measurement periods, as well as against its benchmark and various proxies. While OMMMPEF2’s net return since inception lags its benchmark, it is pleasing to note that over the past five years the Fund has shown strong growth of more than 15% a year. Given the age of the underlying companies, we expect an increase in the realisation of assets over the coming years. These sales are expected to unlock additional value for investors. We remain confident of the abilities of the underlying managers and expect the Fund’s returns to continue to improve over time.

Performance objective:

Fund objective:
The fund is designed to deliver returns in excess of inflation over the long term, through diversified exposure to a fully invested portfolio of high-quality private equity assets with the added benefit of diversification across vintages.
Fund Composition OMPESF is a private equity fund of funds and, following the realisation of OMPE Fund I, is currently invested in only one fully-invested underlying private equity fund: nn Old Mutual Private Equity (OMPE) Fund I (largely realised) nn Old Mutual Private Equity (OMPE) Fund II

R1.46
Based on the 30 September 2014 untaxed unit price of R1.65, OMPESF has delivered a net return of -5.8% for the quarter, 3.4% for the 12-month period ended 30 September 2014 and a compound annual return of 10.5% since inception (60 months). The negative return for the quarter was due mainly to lower comparable multiples across the remaining six underlying portfolio holdings, including weaker earnings from Consol. Given the concentrated number of holdings in this Fund, we expect the future volatility of returns from quarter to quarter to remain high. However, we remain confident of the quality of and prospects for this portfolio. The sale of the remaining holdings over the next two to three years is expected to enable the Fund to achieve its CPI + 10% benchmark and will result in cash distributions to investors.
OMPE Fund I (0%)
OVERALL PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS As at 30 September 2014, 2.46% of the Fund was funded via an internal gearing facility. We will monitor the cash position and consider a distribution to investors should the cash balance increase substantially. This could occur if, for example, an additional asset in OMPE Fund II is sold.

VALUATION PRINCIPLES Valuation Principles Ensuring prudent, realistic valuations Although the underlying assets in Private Equity portfolios are not traded daily, their value is measured on a prudent, consistent yet rigorous basis in accordance with strict international guidelines. What follows are some of the key principles that are applied to ensure that the investments are prudently valued when the funds are priced. Regular and reasonable — The investments held in the Old Mutual retail funds are valued methodically every quarter using the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Association’s valuation guidelines as endorsed
Valuation methodologies — In determining the fair value of an investment, the valuer should use judgement. This includes a detailed consideration of the specific terms of the investment which may impact its fair value. In this regard, the valuer has to consider the substance of the investment, which takes preference over the strict legal form. The valuer exercises judgement to select the valuation methodology that is the most appropriate for a particular investment. Methodologies are applied consistently from period to period, except where a change would result in better estimates of fair value. These methodologies will include earnings multiples, discounted cash flows and discounted earnings, price of recent investments and net asset values.

Fair value — The valuation policy for investment assets is to value investments at fair value. The fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. Where possible, fair value is arrived at by using quoted prices and less frequently by using market-related rates of return to discount future cash flows. Where fair value cannot suitably be determined in this manner, the most appropriate alternative basis is sought to represent the value that would arise from selling an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where appropriate, consultation takes place with external sources such as stockbrokers, banks and property brokers.

Investment PrincipalS:
The responsibilities of the investment principals span the entire breadth of the private equity investment process. Initially,
they source, process and negotiate deals from inception to final investment by our funds. After investing in the underlying company, the investment principal (IP) becomes involved in the management and oversight of the investment through active representation on the investee companies’ boards of directors. Such close involvement requires a deep understanding of the companies’ operations and the broader industries in which they operate. The investment is typically held for between three and eight years, after which the IP will become actively involved in driving an investment realisation (sale) strategy. The IP must ensure they achieve an optimum exit price that provides the funds with the maximum return for their stakeholders.
