PPIVX Investment Objective and Strategy
Phaeacian Accent International Value Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Datum One Series Trust.
Investment objective
The Fund seeks to provide above-average capital appreciation over the long-term while attempting to minimize the risk of capital loss.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund primarily seeks to identify investment opportunities across international markets, including both developed and emerging countries. It typically invests in equity securities of companies of all market capitalizations domiciled in jurisdictions outside of the United States. The portfolio manager does not restrict potential investments by market capitalization and the Fund may invest in small, mid and large capitalization companies. The Fund typically invests in a small selection of companies the portfolio manager believes are high quality and financially strong, and that the portfolio manager believes have management teams that run the business well operationally and allocate capital in a way that builds share value over time. The portfolio manager seeks to invest in these companies when their stock prices are significantly less than the portfolio managers estimate of their intrinsic values per share.
The portfolio manager defines the intrinsic value of a business to mean the discounted value of the sum of all the free cash flows that can be generated by the business during its remaining life. The Fund may invest in a variety of types of equity securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible securities, rights and warrants. The Funds universe of potential investments primarily includes companies domiciled in jurisdictions where the portfolio manager believes reasonable business practices exist. In investing the Funds assets, the portfolio manager focuses on countries with established rules of law and political systems that allow for transparent and unbiased enforcement of those laws, although there can be no assurance that the Funds assets will in all cases be invested in countries that offer such protections.
The Fund will primarily invest in companies domiciled in Continental Europe, Japan, the United Kingdom, emerging Asian markets, the Americas (which typically excludes the United States), Australia and New Zealand, and developing EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) countries. There are no geographic limits on the Funds non-U.S. investments. The portfolio manager does not expect to invest more than 35% of the Funds assets in securities of companies domiciled in emerging markets, however, the Funds investments in emerging markets may exceed this amount depending on market opportunities. The Fund considers emerging markets to be markets located in countries that have an emerging stock market as defined by MSCI, countries or markets with low- to middle-income economies as classified by the World Bank, and other countries or markets with similar emerging characteristics.
Given the Funds broad investment universe, the portfolio manager expects to be able to deploy a large part of the Funds assets under normal circumstances. However, the Fund will seek to remain true to its investment disciple at all times and in all market conditions, and may at time hold cash in lieu of equities if the portfolio managers cannot find sufficient investment opportunities that meet all of its key investment criteria. In addition, the portfolio manager may invest in depositary receipts, which are receipts that represent interests in non-U.S. securities that may be sponsored or unsponsored. The portfolio manager believes that the Funds investment goals are best achieved by taking a long-term approach. The portfolio manager considers himself as owner of businesses and believes the intrinsic value of a business is not decided by what happens in a given quarter, but rather by what will happen over a multi-year period.
However, the portfolio manager is also valuation-driven. As such, what ultimately dictates the Funds holding period of any security is how much time it takes for the discount to fair value to unwind. Key Investment Criteria. The portfolio manager expects to consider the following investment criteria, among others, under normal circumstances. 1. Business Quality . The portfolio manager seeks to invest in businesses with high barriers to market entry, low threat of substitutes, sustainable competitive advantages, and power over customers as well as suppliers. The portfolio manager believes that such businesses can expand revenue over time, generate industry leading margins, realize high levels of free cash flow, and earn attractive returns on capital employed. 2. Financial Strength . The portfolio manager considers the overall financial strength of businesses.
The portfolio manager seeks to avoid companies with excessive leverage on their balance sheet relative to the free cash flow profile of the business. The portfolio manager believes that a strong balance sheet can help a company withstand temporary disruptions or adverse economic circumstances, and put it in a position to gain strength though challenging times. 3. Strong Management . The portfolio manager seeks to invest in companies with shareholder-aligned management teams that have histories of both operational excellence and capital allocation that builds shareholder value. 4. Low Absolute Valuation . The portfolio manager only makes investments when he believes the investment offers a high margin of safety, i.e., when the issuers shares trade at a significant discount to the portfolio managers estimate of their intrinsic value.
Given the portfolio managers strict investment criteria, a broad potential investment universe, a limited number of holdings in the portfolio, and a benchmark-agnostic approach are all important aspects of the Funds strategy. While there are thousands of publicly listed companies across international markets, the portfolio manager believes that only a limited number of them combine strong business fundamentals, financial strength, and shareholder-friendly management teams while trading at a significant discount to intrinsic value, which leads the portfolio manager to run a concentrated portfolio. The portfolio managers benchmark-agnostic approach focuses on whether an opportunity meets all of the investment criteria, rather than where the company is domiciled or which sector or industry it operates in.
The portfolio manager is cognizant of macro-economic factors, but center his analyses around, and selects stocks based on the fundamentals of the underlying businesses. The portfolio manager performs security selection on a bottom-up basis and conducts extensive research on individual investment candidates, focusing on business fundamentals. The portfolio manager eschews businesses that do not lend themselves to appraisal. The portfolio manager uses research findings to estimate the intrinsic value of businesses. The Funds portfolio construction is the product of this research and valuation process. The portfolio manager selects companies that meet his qualitative investment criteria and in his view offer a significant margin of safety. The portfolio manager ranks all portfolio securities according to the relative discount to his estimate of intrinsic value and usually allocates the largest portfolio weightings to those investments that he believes offer the greatest opportunity for appreciation.
The portfolio manager believes that this approach allows his best ideas to have a meaningful impact on the Funds performance. The portfolio manager may sell a portfolio holding when the holdings market price appreciates and approaches the portfolio managers estimate of intrinsic value; when the portfolio manager finds an opportunity to reallocate the Funds assets to other investments with greater reward potential; or when the original investment thesis no longer holds.
