Latest Results (02.09.2026):

Deutsche Beteiligungs AG — third quarter of the 2019/2020 financial year: the company reports a significant rise in net asset value in the third quarter driven by favourable capital market developments, but warns that net income for the full 2019/2020 year is still likely to remain negative; the report also notes that the gross result of valuation and disposal for the first quarter of 2019/2020 is expected to be negative albeit markedly improved year‑on‑year, and that a BaFin notice of hearing about the 2014/2015 consolidated financial statements could affect current accounting and the company’s forecast.

Net asset value

Net asset value increased significantly in Q3 (2019/2020), attributed to positive capital market movements—this is the primary positive development cited in the update.

Earnings outlook

Despite the NAV uplift, Deutsche Beteiligungs AG expects net income for the full 2019/2020 financial year to likely remain negative, signalling continued pressure on reported profitability.

Valuation and disposal result (Q1 2019/2020)

The gross result of valuation and disposal for the first quarter of 2019/2020 is expected to be negative, but the company says this result is significantly improved compared with the prior year’s first quarter.

Regulatory / accounting risk (BaFin)

BaFin has issued a notice of hearing indicating the 2014/2015 consolidated financial statements may be incorrect. Deutsche Beteiligungs AG flags this as a potential influence on current accounting treatment and its financial forecast, introducing additional uncertainty.

Investor takeaway

Positive NAV movement in Q3 is offset by an expected negative full‑year net income and a regulatory review from BaFin; investors should weigh the NAV improvement against ongoing earnings weakness and the accounting uncertainty stemming from the BaFin notice.
