Valuation of Investments
The Company computes its net asset value (“NAV”) as of the last business day of each fiscal quarter and at such other times as deemed appropriate by the Registered Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in accordance with valuation principles set forth below, or as may be determined from time to time, pursuant to the valuation procedures (the “Procedures”) established by the Board.
The Board has approved the Procedures pursuant to which the Company values its interests in the Portfolio Funds and other investments. The Board has delegated to the Sub-Adviser general responsibility for determining the value of the assets held by the Company. The value of the Company’s interests is based on information reasonably available at the time the valuation is made and the Sub-Adviser believes to be reliable.
It is expected that most of the Portfolio Funds in which the Company invests will meet the criteria set forth under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) permitting the use of the practical expedient to determine the fair value of the Portfolio Fund investments. ASC 820 provides that, in valuing alternative investments that do not have quoted market prices but calculate NAV per share or equivalent, an investor may determine fair value by using the NAV reported to the investor by the underlying investment. To the extent ASC 820 is applicable to a Portfolio Fund, the Sub-Adviser generally will value the Company’s investment in the Portfolio Fund based primarily upon the value reported to the Company by the Portfolio Fund or the lead investor of a direct co-investment as of each quarter-end, determined by the Portfolio Fund in accordance with its own valuation policies.
FASB ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements” establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). FASB ASC 820 provides three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access; |
| |
Level 2 | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data; |
| |
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available. |
Most Portfolio Funds are structured as closed-end, commitment-based private investment funds to which the Company commits a specified amount of capital upon inception of the Portfolio Fund (i.e., committed capital) which is then drawn down over a specified period of the Portfolio Fund's life. Such Portfolio Funds generally do not provide redemption options for investors and, subsequent to final closing, do not permit subscriptions by new or existing investors. Accordingly, the Company generally holds interests in Portfolio Funds for which there is no active market, although, in some situations, a transaction may occur in the "secondary market" where an investor purchases a limited partner’s existing interest and remaining commitment.
Assumptions used by the Sub-Adviser due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Company's results of operations and financial condition.
The following table presents the investments carried on the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Members’ Equity - Net Assets by level within the valuation hierarchy as of December 31, 2022.

Significant Unobservable Inputs
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had investments valued at $403,744,654. The fair value of investments valued at $353,058,114 in the Company's Schedule of Investments have been valued at the unadjusted NAV reported by the managers of the investments.
The classification of an investment within Level 3 is based upon the significance of the unobservable inputs to the overall fair value measurement. The following table summarizes the valuation methodologies and inputs used for investments categorized in Level 3 as of December 31, 2022:
