Investment Philosophy

As bottom-up, benchmark agnostic, fundamental investors, we seek to identify companies with sustainable competitive advantages, regardless of industry or economic conditions. We believe that by consistently following our investment philosophy—seeking wealth-creating companies, with great management teams, bought at a discount to intrinsic value—we can provide investors with above-average, long-term, risk-adjusted returns.

What Does the Strategy Invest In?

The strategy invests primarily in equities and equity‐related securities of U.S. mid capitalization entities. Treasury bills or short-term investments, not exceeding three years to maturity, may also be used from time to time. The portfolio is built from the bottom up by selecting high-quality companies at reasonable prices, focusing on the long-term prospects of each company.

Benchmark
Russell Midcap

The Russell Midcap Index measures performance of the 800 smallest companies (31% of total capitalization) in the Russell 1000 Index.

All benchmarks are total return indices (TRIs). Composite benchmarks, if they consist of a blend of more than one index, are calculated by weighting the respective index returns on a monthly basis. Composite and benchmark returns are in Canadian dollars and net of withholding taxes, if applicable.
Internal Dispersion
Internal dispersion is calculated using the equal-weighted standard deviation of annual gross returns of those relationships that were included in the composite for the entire period. No dispersion measure is presented when the composite consists of five or fewer portfolios for the full year.
Standard Deviation
The three-year annualized standard deviation measures the variability of the composite gross returns and the benchmark returns over the preceding 36-month period; it is not presented when 36 monthly returns are not available.

Disclaimers

All information is in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. The strategy performance presented is based on the U.S. Mid Cap Equity Composite and is gross and net of fees. Returns are calculated using a time-weighted calculation and are annualized for periods greater than one year. The index is unmanaged and does not incur fees or expenses. It is not possible to directly invest in an index.

Gross-of-fee returns include the reinvestment of all income received/earned and are presented before management fees and other expenses, and after withholding taxes, if applicable. A client's actual return will be reduced by management fees. Net-of-fee returns are calculated by deducting 1/12th of the top tier of the management fee schedule from the monthly gross-of-fee returns of the composite. Actual fees may vary depending on the applicable fee schedule and the size of the account.

Past performance does not guarantee or indicate future results. All financial investments involve an element of risk. The value of investments may rise and fall so you may get back less than originally invested. Investors should consider the risks, including lower returns, related to currency movements between their investing currency and the portfolio's base currency, if different. Investors should be aware that forward looking statements and forecasts may not be realized.
