Clairvest’s book value was $895.9 million or $59.49 per share as at September 30, 2021, compared with $867.3 million or $57.60 per share as at June 30, 2021. The increase in book value for the quarter was attributable to net income for the quarter of $28.6 million, or $1.89 per share, which resulted from a net increase in the valuation of our private equity investment portfolio and a recovery of share based compensation expense due to a reduction in the Clairvest share price during the quarter.
In November 2021, Clairvest together with CEP VI and a newly formed subsidiary of Rubico Gaming LLC, agreed to acquire the Delaware Park casino and racetrack business. The closing of the transaction is subject to, among other things, obtaining regulatory approvals, and is expected to close by end of calendar year 2021.
“With the mission to help entrepreneurs build strategically significant businesses, we continue to work diligently to identify investment opportunities and continue growing our portfolio,” said Ken Rotman, CEO of Clairvest. “Despite an interesting & unpredictable environment, the majority of our portfolio companies have done an excellent job of navigating the situation and growing throughout. Additionally, we are proud to be on Inc.'s Top Founder-Friendly Investor List this year, which further underscores our approach and mission.”
