View impactAs at mid 2022 Perivoli Innovations had made 67 investments starting in mid 2016. Subscriptions have been made in over 180 funding rounds, some of these into down rounds, with the Trustee generally willing to follow-on.
Of the 67, three have already exited returning 4x over a four year holding period on average with the proceeds reinvested. Seven have been written down to zero. They say the lemons fall before the plums.
The surviving portfolio of 60 names is showing an overall return of 1.5x with seven of the earlier names having pushed through USD 100 million valuations and several of the recent additions showing promise. It is impossible to know from one day to the next what will come to pass but we are hopeful that there will be more than enough to fund the Perivoli Foundation’s ambitions.
