Alameda County Employees' Retirement Association (ACERA): ACERA Annual Report on Alternative Investments (Government Code Section 7514.7 Disclosures Chart), as of December 31, 2024. From the Alternative Investment Vehicle (AIV) Disclosures Chart that ACERA staff present to the Investment Committee each December under California Government Code Section 7514.7, for the period ending 2024-12-31 (ACERA's fiscal year is the calendar year). The chart says it is prepared by ACERA from its own records and the fund managers' reports and has not been prepared, reviewed or approved by the fund managers. Net IRR is the chart's "Net IRR (Since Inception)" and TVPI its "Investment Multiple (Since Inception)", both as printed; for 36 funds the printed multiple differs from (Cash Distributions + NAV) / Cash Contributions, and DPI is left blank. Amounts are whole US dollars as printed: Commitment, "Cash Contributions (Since Inception)", and "Cash Distributions", which the chart heads "(FY 2024)" on a fiscal-year-end basis and which are cumulative to that date; total value is the printed "Cash Distributions + NAV". Vintage is the chart's "Vintage Year". 3 recent commitments with no NAV yet ("N/A") have only a commitment; 7 funds have no Net IRR ("N/A"), and for 4 more the chart gives a time-weighted return instead of an IRR, which is left blank. The chart lists all 115 alternative investment vehicles together and does not separate asset classes, so besides private equity and venture funds it includes private credit, real estate, infrastructure and other real assets funds; all are included as listed. 46 funds contracted before 2017 are not required to report under Section 7514.7 and are shown where the manager shared the information voluntarily.

Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation (APFC): APFC Private Equity Report: Private Equity Fund Commitments & Direct Investments / Co-Investments, as of December 31, 2025. APFC's quarterly Private Equity report ("Private Equity Fund Commitments & Direct Investments / Co-Investments") lists each fund with only its currency, "Vintage Year" and "Commitment (USD)", shown here in whole US dollars as printed. It reports no contributions, distributions, market value, multiple or IRR per fund, so paid-in, distributed, total value, IRR, TVPI and DPI are blank; nothing is derived or estimated. All 454 entries of the report's "Fund Investments" list are included ($17,570,561,197 committed); 15 have the vintage year "TBD" (blank here) and 45 are commitments in another currency that APFC states in US dollars. The report's separate "Direct Investments / Co-Investments" list (56 entries, $2,792,151,600: portfolio companies, co-investment vehicles and manager stakes) is not imported. The two lists add up to the report's printed Total Commitments of $20,362,712,795. For the whole portfolio, including liquidated investments, the report prints Cumulative Contributions of $20,951,089,446, Cumulative Distributions of $22,493,801,627 and a Remaining Fair Market Value of $15,555,575,745. APFC is a state-owned corporation that manages the Alaska Permanent Fund, not a pension plan; its separate Private Income report is not imported. View source

Employees' Retirement System of the State of Hawaii (HIERS): HIERS Private Equity Partnerships: Performance Summary by Investment, as of March 31, 2026. ERS posts a quarterly "Performance Summary by Investment" of its private equity partnerships in which only "Capital Committed", "Paid-In Capital" and "Reported Market Value" (with the date of that value) are filled in; the Capital Distributed, Remaining Cost, Net IRR and TVM columns are empty in the published version. So committed, paid-in and market value are shown, in whole US dollars as printed, and distributed, total value, IRR, TVPI and DPI are blank; nothing is derived or estimated. The report says paid-in capital includes both commitment and non-commitment reducing capital calls, that cash flows are HIERS' actual cash paid and received, and that market values reflect HIERS' unrealized interest in each investment. "Vintage Year" is as printed. All 371 investments are included as ERS classifies them by strategy (61 Buyout - Large, 42 Buyout - Mega, 59 Buyout - Mid, 13 Buyout - Small, 3 Co/Direct Investment, 6 Distressed Debt, 40 Growth Equity, 10 Mezzanine, 2 Secondaries, 10 Special Situations, 125 Venture Capital), in the report's blocks: Core (334), Stafford Capital Management - 1 (8), Stafford Capital Management - 2 (11), Stafford Capital Management - 3 (17), Stafford Ho'oulu Fund (1); the Stafford Capital Management blocks list the partnerships held through the Hawaii Targeted Investment Program funds (HiTIP I, II and III) that ERS's Holdings page also reports separately. They add up to the printed Grand Total of $8,371,769,464 committed, $6,707,086,129 paid in and $5,197,639,074 reported market value. 114 investments have no remaining value (liquidated, or not yet called), shown as 0; 9 others carry a value dated before the report date. Each page of the report carries the legend "Institutional Use Only/Not for Public Use | Proprietary and Confidential"; this is the version ERS itself posts on its Holdings page. ERS's separate private credit, real assets and timber reports are not imported. View source

Los Angeles City Employees' Retirement System (LACERS): LACERS Private Equity Portfolio Performance Report, as of December 31, 2025. "Net IRR" and "Net TVPI" as printed in the fund-by-fund appendix of the Private Equity Portfolio Performance Report that LACERS posts semiannually (prepared on its private equity consultant's template; the cover gives www.aksia.com). The report defines TVPI as (cumulative distributions + fair market value) / cumulative contributions and labels IRRs of investments held less than two years "n.m."; 27 funds have no IRR (n.m., or "-" in the report) and 14 have no multiple ("-", mostly commitments with nothing contributed yet), all shown as blank. Dollar amounts are whole US dollars as reported (inception-to-date contributions and distributions). Total value = distributions + fair market value, and DPI = distributions / contributions, are computed. All 408 partnerships in the report are included: 305 active and 103 liquidated (no remaining fair market value), of which 23 are in LACERS' Specialized Portfolio and the rest in its Core Portfolio. LACERS counts 36 Credit/Distressed and 15 Natural Resources (energy) partnerships as private equity in this report, alongside buyout, growth equity, venture capital, secondaries, co-investment and fund-of-funds vehicles; its separate private credit and real estate reports are not imported.

Maine Public Employees Retirement System (MainePERS): MainePERS Private Market Investments Summary, as of March 31, 2026. "Interim Net IRR" as printed in the Private Equity pages of the Private Market Investments Summary that MainePERS posts each quarter, one quarter in arrears. MainePERS says the figures are based on cash flow information provided by the general partner, use interim estimates, were not prepared, reviewed or approved by the partnerships or general partners, and should not be used to compare returns among funds or limited partners; it reports an IRR only for funds with more than 24 months of history and contributions above 50% of the commitment, and marks the rest "NM" (14 rows, shown as blank). The report gives amounts in thousands of dollars (shown here multiplied by 1,000): Commitment, Amount Contributed, Total Distributions, Current Market Value and Total Value (distributions plus market value). TVPI = Total Value / Amount Contributed and DPI = Total Distributions / Amount Contributed are computed from those rounded amounts. The report gives a date of commitment, which it says is not the date of the first capital draw, and no vintage year, so vintage is blank. All 173 rows MainePERS lists under Private Equity are included as it classifies them (buyout, growth and venture funds, plus a few energy, special-situations and credit-type funds it holds in that class): 138 funds and the 35 co-investments listed under them, named here as "fund: co-investment". Their contributions and distributions add up to the Private Equity line of the report's Asset Class Summary ($5,578,116,000 contributed, $5,810,920,000 distributed, 14.3% interim net IRR for the class); their commitments add up to $5,329,830,000, where that summary line says $5,352,225,000, a difference the report does not explain. Its Alternative Credit, Infrastructure, Natural Resources and Real Estate tables are not imported. View source

Orange County Employees Retirement System (OCERS): OCERS Private Equity Portfolio Summary, as of December 31, 2025. "Net IRR" and "TVPI" as printed in the "Portfolio Summary by Status" of the quarterly OCERS - Private Equity Portfolio Report that OCERS posts on its website (the report's legend names Aksia LLC as its source). The report gives every amount in $ millions to one decimal; they are converted to whole dollars here, so each is rounded to the nearest $100,000: Total Commitment, Contributions and Distributions. Total value = Distributions + NAV is computed; DPI is left blank because amounts rounded to $0.1 million do not give a reliable ratio for small funds. Vintage is the report's "Vintage Year". The report marks the IRR of investments held less than 24 months "n.m." (not meaningful); 64 funds have no IRR (n.m., or "-" for commitments with nothing contributed yet) and 17 have no TVPI, all shown as blank. 12 funds' values are marked by the report as adjusted for contributions and distributions since the last valuation, which is before the report date. All 237 funds in the report are included: 211 active and 26 liquidated (no remaining NAV), adding up to the report's printed totals of $6.90 billion committed, $5.09 billion contributed and $5.39 billion NAV. OCERS's private equity portfolio as it reports it includes funds of funds, secondaries, co-investments and a few private credit funds; its separate Real Assets and Real Estate summaries are not imported.

Public School and Education Employee Retirement Systems of Missouri (PSRS/PEERS): PSRS/PEERS Annual Comprehensive Financial Report: Private Equity Partnerships, as of June 30, 2025. Holdings only: the Private Equity Partnerships table of the Systems' Annual Comprehensive Financial Report lists each manager's fund family on one row, naming the funds held together (for example several consecutive funds of one series), with an investment strategy and one combined "Fair Value" at the June 30 fiscal year-end, shown here as the market value in whole dollars as printed. The report says the Systems were invested in 278 separate partnerships with 91 firms in the Private Equity asset class; the table has 104 rows, so a row can stand for several partnerships and its value is their total. It reports no commitment, contributions, distributions, vintage year, multiple or IRR per row, so committed, paid-in, distributed, total value, IRR, TVPI and DPI are blank; nothing is derived or estimated. The report says fair values are reported by the Systems' private equity advisors and reflect the most current net asset values, cash-flow adjusted through June 30 where a net asset value was older. Every partnership row is included as classified by the Systems (8 Venture Capital, 8 debt-related (distressed, opportunistic, mezzanine) and 1 Fund-of-Funds, the discretionary fund-of-funds relationship reported under its manager's name, alongside acquisition, special situations and secondary funds); the table's "Stock distribution account" and "Cash and Equivalents" rows are left out. The rows add up to the table's printed Total of $10,632,702,691. The separate Private Credit and Private Real Estate partnership tables are not imported. View source

Washington State Investment Board: WSIB Private Equity Portfolio Performance Summary By Strategy, as of March 31, 2026. Net IRR as labeled by WSIB, calculated by Hamilton Lane from general partner cash flows and valuations and not confirmed by the general partners. TVPI is WSIB's total value multiple (B+C)/A recomputed to two decimals from the reported totals (WSIB prints one decimal). WSIB lists an initial investment date rather than a vintage year; its year is used as the vintage (blank for commitments not yet funded). Includes realized and legacy partnerships. View source

West Yorkshire Pension Fund (WYPF): WYPF Private Equity Portfolio Quarterly Transactions, as of March 31, 2026. WYPF publishes each quarter every private-market fund it holds outside property, each with its local currency, a commitment, cumulative distributions, cumulative contributions and an "Ending Adjusted Valuation" in whole units of that currency; it reports no vintage year, multiple or IRR, so those are blank. Shown here: commitment as committed, cumulative contributions as paid-in, cumulative distributions as distributed, the ending adjusted valuation as market value, and total value as distributions plus valuation (derived). TVPI and DPI are left blank because WYPF says performance metrics calculated from the data should not be used to compare returns among funds. The date is the last day of the quarter named on the sheet ("March 2026 exc. property"). Dollar amounts are converted: euro amounts are multiplied by 1.1518 and pound amounts by 1.3184 US dollars, the Federal Reserve's H.10 foreign exchange rates for 2026-03-31 (federalreserve.gov/releases/h10/hist/dat00_eu.htm and dat00_uk.htm), and rounded to the dollar; dollar amounts are as published (48 funds in US dollars, 22 in euro, 38 in pounds). Contributions and distributions made over many years are therefore converted at the 2026-03-31 rate, not the rates when the cash moved. The sheet does not label asset classes: within each currency its rows run alphabetically in consecutive groups, and the first group is the private equity funds (buyout, growth, venture, fund-of-funds, secondaries and co-investment vehicles), the later groups being infrastructure, credit and other holdings, as their names show. Only the first group of each currency is included, 108 funds; the other 72 lines are left out. That reading of the sheet's order is this site's, not WYPF's. 29 of the included funds have a valuation of zero. WYPF's own notes: valuations are provided by each fund's general partner or manager, have not necessarily been audited, and may be older than the stated date with adjustments for later cash flows. WYPF also invests in private equity through the Northern LGPS funds' Northern Private Equity Pool, which is not in this workbook. View source
