Comments by the CEO
Including the dividend paid, the net asset value (NAV) per share increased by 3.9% during the first quarter of 2020. However, the recent turbulent market conditions may result in a material impact on the valuation of NAXS’s private equity fund investments and other investments in the coming quarters.
The Future Prospects section of this report sets forth a sensitivity analysis showing the impact a change in valuation in NAXS’s holdings would have on the company’s results.
