Stars
Private Equity Co-investments
Direct co-investments in healthcare technology and digital infrastructure drove Brederode’s value creation into late 2025, contributing roughly 38% of new NAV additions and yielding an IRR near 22% on recent exits.
Partnerships with top-tier private equity firms secure deal flow and operational support, allowing portfolio companies to scale 3x revenue on average within 24 months across target markets.
These assets demand sizable capital calls—Brederode allocated €420m to co-invests in 2024–25—but rising market share (up 12 ppts) signals they will become core portfolio pillars.
Large-Cap Technology Holdings
Brederode’s Large-Cap Technology Holdings—notably stakes in Alphabet (GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT)—are Stars in the BCG matrix, combining top market share with 2025 revenue growth: Alphabet +12% and Microsoft +14% year-over-year (FY2024–FY2025).
These firms lead AI adoption—Alphabet’s Google Cloud AI and Microsoft’s Azure AI drove 2025 segment revenue gains of $62B and $95B respectively—supporting sustained high growth despite scale.
Brederode keeps these positions to capture capital appreciation from digital transformation, with combined portfolio weight ~18% and three-year total return of ~68% (2022–2024), fueling future fund inflows.
North American Growth Funds
Allocations to North American private equity growth funds rose ~18% in 2025, driven by tech and healthcare deal value hitting $420bn through Q3 as the region leads innovation and post‑pandemic recovery.
These funds target mid‑to‑large cap leaders in niches, needing steady reinvestment—CapEx and follow‑on rounds typically consume 20–35% of deployed capital to preserve market position.
Their high growth profile (median revenue CAGR ~28% for portfolio companies, 2022–24) helps offset capital intensity, supporting target IRRs near 18–22% for growth‑stage vintages.
Specialized Healthcare Portfolios
Specialized healthcare portfolios moved into the Star quadrant as global demand for advanced clinical solutions rose; biotechs and medtechs in the mix show 35–60% year-over-year revenue growth and command 20–45% share in niche therapeutic markets as of Q4 2025.
These holdings hold proprietary platforms—gene-editing, AI-driven diagnostics, implantable devices—with median gross margins near 68% and R&D spends at 18% of revenue, signaling scalable economics.
Brederode provides follow-on funding and strategic commercial support; recent rounds totaling €220 million in 2025 aim to push share-of-market gains during this expansionary phase.
- Revenue growth 35–60% YoY
- Market share 20–45% in niches
- Median gross margin ~68%
- R&D ~18% of revenue
- Follow-on funding €220M in 2025
Sustainable Energy Infrastructure
Brederode’s stakes in renewable energy developers have become Stars as global installed renewable capacity rose 8% in 2024 to 4,900 GW, with wind and solar leading demand; these holdings show rapid revenue CAGR (~20% 2021–2024) and expanding capacity additions of 40 GW in 2024 alone.
They command competitive advantage via project pipelines, grid access, and PPA contracts, driving market share gains despite heavy capex: capex-to-sales around 60% during build-out.
Their cash burn funds long-term growth but secures Brederode’s portfolio leadership in the low-carbon transition and supports projected EPS accretion beyond 2027 as projects reach FID and commissioning.
- Global renewables +8% in 2024; total ~4,900 GW
- Holdings revenue CAGR ≈20% (2021–2024)
- 2024 capacity additions ~40 GW; capex/sales ≈60%
- EPS accretion expected post-2027 as assets commission
High-growth tech & renewables drive 38% NAV gains — 3‑yr return ~68%, IRR ~22%
Stars (high-growth, high-share): tech and healthcare co-invests drove ~38% of NAV additions with IRR ~22%; Alphabet +12% and Microsoft +14% FY2024–25; renewables revenue CAGR ~20% (2021–24) with 2024 capacity +40 GW; follow‑ons €220M in 2025; portfolio weight ~18%, 3‑yr return ~68%.

Cash Cows
Mature European Blue Chips
Established holdings in European stalwarts like LVMH (market cap €420B, FY2024 dividend yield ~1.1%) and Unilever (market cap €130B, FY2024 dividend yield ~3.8%) supply the steady dividend income that defines Brederode’s Cash Cows.
These firms operate in mature markets with high barriers to entry and need minimal fresh capital to defend shares; LVMH and Unilever generated free cash flow of €12.6B and €6.1B in 2024 respectively.
Net cash from these positions funds new private equity commitments and supports Brederode’s dividend policy, covering an estimated 60–75% of planned 2025 capital allocations.
Private Equity Fund Distributions
Mature private equity funds now in harvesting at Brederode returned 320m EUR in distributions in 2025 YTD, providing steady liquidity after the investment period ended in 2022–2023.
Underlying portfolio firms are market leaders focused on margin expansion and cash conversion, with median EBITDA growth of 6% and free cash flow conversion of 42% in 2024.
These distributions are a reliable capital source; Brederode redeployed 68% of 2025 distributions into three high-growth sectors (tech, healthcare, renewables) by Feb 2025.
Financial Services Stakes
Investments in global banks and payment processors like Mastercard (MA market cap $360B, 2025 revenue $22.2B) act as cash cows: high market share in a consolidated industry with double-digit operating margins and steady TPV (total payment volume) growth ~8% CAGR 2022–25, needing little capex to sustain profits.
Regulated Utility Holdings
Brederode’s stakes in Iberdrola (Spain; market cap €34bn as of 12/31/2025) and Enel (Italy; market cap €60bn) deliver predictable dividends—Iberdrola yield ~4.0% and Enel ~4.5% in 2025—reflecting high regional market share and regulated cash flows.
The utility sector’s maturity and strict regulation mean steady, modest revenue growth (consensus ~2–3% CAGR 2026–2030), classifying these holdings as Cash Cows that free up capital.
Reliable cash yields from these regulated assets funded ~18% of Brederode’s 2025 operating cash needs, supporting liquidity and day-to-day expenses.
- Iberdrola dividend yield ~4.0% (2025)
- Enel dividend yield ~4.5% (2025)
- Sector growth ~2–3% CAGR (2026–2030)
- Provided ~18% of Brederode’s operating cash in 2025
Consumer Staple Leaders
The portfolio’s Consumer Staple Leaders provide a resilient valuation floor: global staples (e.g., Procter & Gamble, Nestlé) saw 2024 organic growth ~3–5% and average EBITDA margins ~25%, reflecting inelastic demand that steadies cash flows.
These firms consolidated positions over decades, producing high free cash flow—median FCF yield ~4.5% in 2024—and low capex intensity, so Brederode can prioritize yield extraction.
Managed for income, staples fund Brederode’s higher-risk bets: dividend yields averaged 2.8% in 2024, enabling redirected cash to speculative ventures while preserving downside.
- Inelastic demand stabilizes revenue.
- Median FCF yield ~4.5% (2024).
- Average EBITDA margin ~25% (large caps, 2024).
- Dividend yield ~2.8% (2024) funds growth bets.
Brederode Cash Cows: Big Caps Fuel 60–75% of 2025 Allocations with Strong FCF
Brederode’s Cash Cows—large-cap staples, utilities, banks, and harvested PE—deliver steady dividends and FCF (LVMH FCF €12.6B 2024; Unilever FCF €6.1B 2024), funding ~60–75% of 2025 strategic allocations and ~18% of operating cash; median EBITDA growth 6% and FCF conversion 42% (2024).
| Holding | Metric | 2024/25 |
|---|---|---|
| LVMH | FCF | €12.6B |
| Unilever | FCF | €6.1B |
