The AUD:USD spot rate used was 0.7030 as at 31 October 2026.
Factors Driving the Monthly NTA Reduction
According to the filing, the reduction in NTA during the month of October 2026 was primarily driven by two factors: a previously announced adjustment to an underlying fund's valuation following a portfolio realisation update in October, and foreign exchange losses resulting from the strengthening Australian dollar. The filing notes that total returns are inclusive of distributions. The responsible entity of the fund is K2 Asset Management Ltd (ACN 085 445 094, AFSL 244 393). Numbers in the filing may not sum due to rounding, and all historical performance figures are sourced from E&P Investments Limited for data before 24 June 2023 and K2 Asset Management Ltd for data post that date.
Underlying Fund Interest Sale and Proceeds
During October 2026, the fund announced the execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement for one underlying fund interest. The filing states the transaction was completed below the carrying value of the underlying assets. The filing further states that the manager determined accelerating liquidity for investors was preferable to a potentially extended realisation timeframe. Following completion of the transaction in early November, the LP received proceeds of approximately US$3.2 million. The proceeds are expected to be distributed to the fund once the LP has satisfied its remaining tax and operating requirements. No distributions or capital calls were received by the LP during the month of October 2026.
