OUR PHILOSOPHY

  • Capital Distribution – fair to minority shareholders
  • Error in decision – Business errors vs avoidable mishaps
Earnings

  • Actual earnings vs expected
  • Cyclical vs Structural earnings
  • Companies that can double profits in 4 years or less or where EV/EBITDA can halve in four years

  • Can be Buy or Sell opportunity
  • Events on the horizon
  • Disruptive trends/new themes
Timing
  • What is the price discounting
  • Time frame of investment
  • Mean reversion
  • Good company is not necessarily a good investment if price is not right
Structural
  • Size of the opportunity
  • Competitive positioning / MOAT

Investment Philosophy

Alpha generators
  • Believe in investing with an endeavor to generate alpha over the markets rather than just allocating within benchmark index
  • Companies where profitability is expected to grow higher than market average
  • Fundamentally underpriced stocks with reasonable growth expectations
Fundamental driven
  • Bottom-up research with focus on balance sheet
  • Numbers speak more than presentations and hype
  • Returns ultimately are all about earnings
Risk reward equation
  • Expected returns must justify the risk / uncertainty taken
  • A good company might not necessarily be a good stock
  • Focus on the price we pay, and value derived
  • What is in the price?
Agile and flexible
  • Each investment opportunity is looked upon individual merit
  • Not constrained to a particular theme or style
  • Effectively adapt to changing investment landscape
Patient investors
  • Buy and hold
  • Invest in a stock as if investing in a business
  • Think like a partner
  • Active portfolio adjustments to align with market conditions
Happy to be contrarian
  • Prefer to be first, early investors
  • Do not chase the momentum
  • Open to look at companies across sectors and market caps and business cycle
