Jacobs Holding AG’s assets can be divided into two main categories: investment pool assets, which are the investments that Jacobs Holding AG manages as an active investor for the purpose of long-term value creation, and credo assets, which consist of agribusiness and other non-core businesses.
The key performance metric for the Board and the Management is Total Shareholder Return (TSR) on the net asset value of the investment pool in a given year. The total return is defined as the sum of the annual change in the net asset value of the investment pool, plus the dividend paid out to the Jacobs Foundation and the cash transfers that are required to fund the agri business and other businesses during the financial year.
