Allspring Discovery Large Cap Growth Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Allspring Funds Trust.
Investment objective
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, we invest: at least 80% of the Fund's total assets in equity securities; and up to 25% of the Fund's total assets in equity securities of foreign issuers through ADRs and similar investments. We invest principally in the equity securities of approximately 30 to 40 companies that we believe offer the potential for capital growth. We may also invest in equity securities of foreign issuers through ADRs and similar investments. We select equity securities of companies of any size. We seek to identify companies that have the prospect for improving sales and earnings growth rates, that enjoy a competitive advantage (for example, dominant market share) and that we believe have effective management with a history of making investments that are in the best interests of shareholders (for example, companies with a history of earnings and sales growth that are in excess of total asset growth).
We pay particular attention to balance sheet metrics such as changes in working capital, property, plant and equipment growth, inventory levels, accounts receivable, and acquisitions. We also look at how management teams allocate capital in order to drive future cash flow. Price objectives are determined based on industry specific valuation methodologies; including relative price-to-earnings multiples, price-to-book value, operating profit margin trends, enterprise value to EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) and free cash flow yield. In addition to meeting with management, we take a surround the company approach by surveying a company's vendors, distributors, competitors and customers to obtain multiple perspectives that help us make better investment decisions.
Portfolio holdings are continuously monitored for changes in fundamentals. The team seeks a favorable risk/reward relationship to fair valuation, which we define as the value of the company (i.e., our price target for the stock) relative to where the stock is currently trading. We may invest in any sector, and at times we may emphasize one or more particular sectors. We may choose to sell a holding when it no longer offers favorable growth prospects, or reaches our target price, or to take advantage of a better investment opportunity.
