Deutsche Beteiligungs AG Adjusts Forecast Amidst Mixed H1 Results

Deutsche Beteiligungs AG (DBAG) has adjusted its financial outlook following a mixed performance in the first half of 2025. Gross measurement gains and losses reached €20 million, while the net asset value (NAV) per share fell slightly to €35.21 from €35.78 the previous year. Despite market challenges, DBAG remains committed to its shareholder-friendly policies, continuing a share buyback program of up to €20 million.

DBAG's adjusted forecast projects a NAV between €625 and €665 million by the end of 2025, alongside EBITA for Fund Investment Services ranging from €10 to €15 million. The company's private debt investments have performed strongly with three new mid-market financings. DBAG also made a significant minority investment in FinMatch AG, enhancing its SME financing services.

The challenging economic climate, including geopolitical tensions and market volatility, has impacted DBAG's operations. However, the firm continues to adapt, leveraging opportunities in private debt and innovative business models to strengthen its strategic positioning.
