Key events during the quarter
- Valuation tailwinds outweighed headwinds as USD NAV increased 9%, to USD 475.0 mln, QoQ in 3Q24. Portfolio performance, peer market multiples and FX movements all played a net supportive role in our NAV development during the quarter.
- Creditas released headline 2Q24 IFRS numbers, delivering 16.5% QoQ increase in originations combined with record gross profit of USD c. 38 mln, +45% YoY. With profitability attained in December 2023, reigniting growth has been a key management goal, with annual profitable growth of 25%+ the headline target.
- Post a gradual recovery from 2022 lows, we see a growing number of data points highlighting a return of capital flow (investments and exits) through the venture ecosystem. As important, we see these trends and events having a direct positive impact on the VEF portfolio.

VEF CEO, David Nangle, comments:
"We reiterate our mantra into 3Q24: that the investment world we play in continues to trend positively with each passing quarter. With a majority of our portfolio reaching break-even early in the year, 2024 has become a year to reignite growth. Additionally, we are seeing improving capital flows through the ecosystem. Our goal over the coming quarters is to benefit from the return to growth and improving capital flows to deliver tangible proof points of the quality of our portfolio and the NAV marks we have them valued at.”
