Comment

In September, the Mainberg Special Situations Fund (I-Tranche) recorded a performance of -0.68%. The annualized volatility for the month was 3.04%. This marks the first negative monthly return after twelve consecutive positive months. Over a twelve-month period, the fund achieved a total return of +6.17% with a volatility of 3.18%.

Portfolio Segment: Merger Arbitrage
At the end of the month, the Merger Arbitrage allocation accounted for 31% of the portfolio (previous month: 36%). This segment currently consists of 12 equities from six countries, each at different stages of takeover processes. Larger positions are currently held in Covestro (Germany), Just Eat Takeaway (Netherlands), B&S Group (Luxembourg), and Kellanova Co. (USA).
The position in Covestro contributed negatively to performance after it became known that the European Commission intends to take a closer look at potential competition distortions arising from bidder subsidies.

Portfolio Segment: Domination Agreements
With a current allocation of 43%, the Corporate Agreements segment continues to form the largest building block of the fund. At the end of August 2025, Schaltbau AG's share price experienced a sharp increase, which had a positive impact on August's performance but a negative impact in September. The reason is that the price movement lacked any fundamental basis, and the share corrected again at the beginning of September.
