Focus on buying great companies at attractive prices
- Non-diversified focus – Investments in companies will often be held to a small number of equity positions.
- Deep value driven – We believe understanding what companies are worth can lead to lower risk, and higher return opportunities.
- Owner-like mindset – Focus on the long term and buy a company as if you will own it all.
Make informed valuation decisions on companies

- Moat – Analyze a 10-year history of compound growth rates for Book Value Per Share, Earnings Per Share, Operating Cash Flow Per Share, and Sales to see a sustainable moat.
- Management – Analyze the effectiveness of management through a 10-year history of Return on Equity, Return on Invested Capital and Debt.
