MARK VS PUBLIC MARKET

How does the GP's self-reported return compare to simply buying the S&P 500 at the same vintage?

Vista Foundation Fund IV
+2% IRR
~+10% total return over 5 yrs
S&P 500 (2021 vintage)
+5%
Total return, 2021 to present

VERDICT: GP marks outpace the S&P 500 by ~5pp. But DPI is low — returns exist only on paper until realized.

Notes

Software focus. Pluralsight debacle.

ALL RETURNS ARE SELF-REPORTED BY GP MARKS — NOT AUDITED, NOT MARK-TO-MARKET
