An update from La Trobe Private Credit Fund ( (AU:LF1) ) is now available.

La Trobe Private Credit Fund reported total investment income of $9.3 million and net profit attributable to unitholders of $8.8 million for the period from its May 2025 registration to 31 December 2025, translating to basic earnings of 5.95 cents per unit and net tangible assets of $1.99 per unit. The fund paid and declared unfranked monthly distributions totaling 7.03 cents per unit for 2025, supported by a Distribution Reinvestment Plan that issues new units at net tangible asset value.

During the period, LF1 gained control of the La Trobe US Private Credit Fund on 30 June 2025, contributing $4.4 million to profit and expanding its exposure to U.S. private credit assets. To support price stability and align market pricing with asset backing, the Responsible Entity executed two off-market quarterly buy-backs totaling 6.85% of issued capital at net tangible asset value and put in place an on-market buy-back program for up to 12 months, though no units were repurchased on-market before year-end.

The capital management initiatives, alongside consistent distributions and the DRP, underscore the fund’s strategy to manage trading discounts and enhance liquidity for investors while maintaining alignment with its constitution and ASX Listing Rules. The interim financial results and associated distributions have been reviewed by auditors, providing additional assurance to existing and prospective unitholders on the fund’s early performance since listing.
