fhuyge's Fair Value

NAV

As Sofina is an investment holding company, NAV is an important factor in my evaluation. This Net Asset Value is estimated at a price share of 297 Eur, up from 294 last year. It is slightly impacted by a capital raise end of 25, which might have diluted the NAV by 7 to 10 Eur per share.

Discount

Current trading at 237,5 Eur, we have a NAV discount of about 18 to 20%. This makes today a potential "good buy" moment.

Price to books

We see a 0.86x, this confirms buying the underlying assets at a good price, although not in line with the Discount.

Dividend

Sofina pays a stable, but relative low yield dividend, estimated to be at gross yield of 1.4%, backed with a solid cash position.

Portfolio

  • Sofina Direct – minority direct stakes in private companies
  • Long-term minority investments (often more mature / strategic)
  • Sofina Private Funds – commitments as LP into VC/growth/private equity funds

Sofina is exposed to the techlandscape, as well as USD FX fluctuation !

Risks

  • Dilution of capital raise if not invested correctly
  • FX risks
  • What if no IPO of underlying investments - drag on share price vs NAV

My evaluation

I invest in Sofina based on the NAV and Price to books ratio today, and the stable dividend growth historically. I feel the recent capital increase positions them well to invest wisely in 2026, but I monitor the risks as mentioned.

My fair value is 340 Eur for 2027.
