BIF –Valuation update assessment in progress with potential material movement

18 May 2023


Booster has been informed by one of the businesses in the Booster Innovation Fund’s investment

portfolio, that it is currently in advanced discussions with investors and major customers for the raising of

additional capital for the business at a price substantially higher than its current carrying value.


Due to confidentiality restrictions, Booster is not able to name the business concerned.


Booster is in the process of considering the impact that this potential transaction may have on the net

asset value of the Fund. The initial estimate (subject to formal assessment by the Fund’s investment

committee) is the valuation could increase by an amount that is material to the Fund.


On completion of this assessment, a further NZX announcement will be made confirming the impact to

the Fund.


In the meantime, investors who are considering buying or selling units, may wish to defer the timing of

their transaction until a further announcement is made.
