Investing.com -- Oakley Capital Investments Limited (LON:OCI) on Wednesday reported a net asset value (NAV) per share of 742p as of June 30, 2025, representing a 5% return for the second quarter and a 7% total return for the first half of the year.

The company’s half-year performance was primarily driven by portfolio valuation movements, which contributed 6% to the opening NAV, while share buybacks added another 1%.

Key contributors to NAV growth included Bright Stars, TechInsights, Phenna Group, and North Sails.

The vLex valuation uplift alone contributed 3.5% to the Q2 NAV, while the listed Time Out investment partially offset overall performance with a negative impact of 1.7%.

During the first half of 2025, Oakley Capital made £54 million in new investments against £6 million in disposals from the refinancing of Dexters.

The company reported £108 million in cash and £149 million available from its revolving credit facility at the end of June.

Outstanding commitments stood at £1,070 million as of June 30, with approximately £300 million expected not to be drawn.

Most of the company’s share buybacks during the half-year occurred in the second quarter following a revision to the capital allocation policy toward the end of Q1, adding approximately 1% to the NAV.

Oakley Capital also confirmed its London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG) main market listing, which will take effect on August 1, 2025, with expected inclusion in the FTSE 250 index in September.
