Highlights of the year 2023

In 2023 HGO has focused on further developing the working relationships with its portfolio companies as well as improving and streamlining administrative, regulatory and risk processes. As a part of this active relationship with the portfolio companies the HGO also assessed a number of potential new transactions. After having carried out an extensive due diligence process including regular meetings and discussions with the management teams of the companies concerned, HGO has made one further investment during the year. HGO increased its holding in Gauzy Ltd through the purchase of a convertible note.

Despite at times volatile market conditions particularly in the tech sector the performance of HGO over the three-year period since listing has been stable showing an aggregate profit of €518,818. Foreign Exchange markets for the currencies that impact the investments of HGO have, despite the current geopolitical situation, remained within a range and although Foreign Exchange movements have had some influence on the performance of HGO this has been minimal. Due to that reduced volatility HGO reduced the amount and ultimately cost of its hedging activities within the course of the year.

GAUZY LTD is a world leading vendor of material science, focused on developing, manufacturing, and marketing LCG (light control glass) technology. Gauzy is the only company in the world working with two of the three active light control technologies, SPD (suspended particle device) and PDLC (polymer dispersed liquid crystals). Gauzy Ltd’s LCG nanotechnologies allows glass to change from transparent to varying degrees of opaque on demand for privacy, custom shading, solar control, and transparent displays.
