The information regarding the Private Equity Investments, as presented above, has not been prepared, reviewed or approved by any such Private Equity Fund or any general partner, manager or sponsor of such Private Equity Investments or any of their respective affiliates.
1. Organization
Pomona Investment Fund (the “Fund”), was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on August 12, 2014 and commenced operations on May 7, 2015. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. On August 3, 2017, in connection with the Fund’s revolving credit facility, Pomona Investment Fund LLC was organized as a Delaware limited liability company, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Fund. All inter-company accounts and transactions relating to Pomona Investment Fund LLC have therefore been eliminated.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Fund has formal valuation policies and procedures (the “Valuation Procedures”), which have been approved by a board of trustees (the “Board”). The Board has delegated direct and oversight responsibilities for making valuation determinations for investments held by the Fund to a valuation committee (the “Valuation Committee”), which draws on the resources and personnel of Pomona Management LLC (the “Administrator” and the “Adviser”) in carrying out its responsibilities. The Board receives valuation reports from the Valuation Committee on a quarterly basis and determines if the Valuation Procedures are operating as expected and the outcomes are reliable.
The Valuation Procedures are applied to all of the Fund’s investments, which primarily consists of the following types of Private Equity Investment strategies:
| • | Secondary Investments refer to investments in existing Private Equity that are typically acquired in privately negotiated transactions. |
| • | Primary Investments refer to investments in newly established private equity funds, which are made during a private equity fund’s initial fundraising period in the form of capital commitments that are then called down by the fund and utilized to finance its investments during a predefined period. |
| • | Seasoned Primary Investments refer to primary investments made after an investment fund has already invested a certain percentage of its capital commitments. |
| • | Direct Investment/Co-Investment refers to an investment in an operating company by the Fund, as opposed to an investment in an investment fund that, in turn, invests in operating companies. |
All investments are recorded at “Fair Value” in good faith. Fair value is based on actual or estimated market value, with special provisions for assets not having readily available market quotations, and for situations in which market quotations are deemed unreliable. The private equity investments (“Private Equity Investments”) in which the Fund invests normally do not have readily available market prices. Determining the fair value of Private Equity Investments and other assets requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each asset while seeking to employ a valuation process that is consistently followed. There is not necessarily a single standard for determining fair value of such assets, and determinations of fair value may involve subjective judgments and estimates.
The fair values of the Fund’s Private Equity Investments are estimates and are determined by the Adviser in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. If applicable, these estimates are net of management and performance incentive fees or allocations payable pursuant to the respective organizational documents of each Private Equity Investment. Ordinarily, the fair value of a Private Equity Investment held by the Fund is based on the net asset value (“NAV”) of that Private Equity Investment reported by its investment manager. If the Adviser determines that the most recent NAV reported by the investment manager of a Private Equity Investment does not represent the fair value or if the investment manager of a Private Equity Investment fails to report a NAV to the Fund, a fair value determination is made by the Adviser in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. This includes adjusting the NAV provided by an investment manager for other relevant information available at the time the Fund values its portfolio, including capital activity and material events occurring between the reference dates of the investment manager’s valuation and the relevant valuation date.
For investments that do not have readily determinable fair values and for which it is not possible to use NAV as practical expedient, such as certain Direct Investments/Co-Investments, the Fund will review and value such investments using one or more of the following types of analyses:
| • | Market comparable statistics and public trading multiples discounted for illiquidity, minority ownership and/or other factors for investments with similar characteristics. |
| • | Discounted cash flow analysis, including a terminal value or exit multiple. |
| • | The cost of the investment, if the cost is determined to best approximate the fair value of the investment. |
| • | Valuations implied by third-party investment in similar assets or issuers. |
3. Fair Value Disclosures
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), the Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurement). The guidance establishes three levels of fair value as listed below.
| - | Level 1 – Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date |
| - | Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active |
| - | Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable |
The notion of unobservable inputs is intended to allow for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Under Level 3, the owner of an asset must determine fair value based on its own assumptions about what market participants would take into account in determining the fair value of the asset, using the best information available.
The inputs or methodology for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement; however, the determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Administrator. The Administrator considers observable data to be market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The Fund’s Private Equity Investments are generally restricted securities that are subject to substantial holding periods and restrictions on resale and are not traded in public markets. Accordingly, the Fund would not be able to resell such investments for extended periods, if at all.
The following table is a summary of information about the levels within the fair valuation hierarchy at which the Fund’s investments are measured as of December 31, 2020:
| Investments | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||||||||||||
| Direct Investments/Co-Investments | $ | - | $ | - | $ | 2,338,080 | $ | 2,338,080 | ||||||||

As the Fund uses the NAV as a practical expedient to determine the fair value of certain Private Equity Investments, these investments have not been classified in the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2020, $264,358,561 was fair valued utilizing NAV as practical expedient.
During the period ended December 31, 2020, the Fund did not have any transfers between any of the levels of the fair value hierarchy. The Fund records all transfers at the end of each reporting period.
The following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value:
