•Disciplined security analysis: Valuation, Growth (eg. Earnings and revenue
growth), Income (eg dividend yield). Thereby avoiding the pitfalls of each style and
capturing the best of all three theories for selecting stocks.
•Qualitative and Quantative: (i) determining the variables to use to identify stocks
falling in each style (eg. PEG), and then (ii) determining the range of relevant values
(eg. PEG 0.2-0.8) for each criteria (iii) weighting those criteria

•Low Transaction Costs: Our strategy is inherently not a
high turnover strategy thereby reduces portfolio churn and
transaction costs.
•Money Management: 25% per position hard stop-loss means no position can impact portfolio
more than 1.8%.
•Risk impact of our 14 positions have same impact on portfolio downside as a GBP 200m equity
funds largest 10-14 positions.

Value Growth Income: USP
Downside of Traditional Styles &
Other Funds
Our way for generating maximising risk-adjusted
returns
Value Stocks: can remain
undervalued for long periods. Can be
excessively undervalued because
business is not viable.
As our stocks are also growth stocks, they tend to be
spotted earlier by big funds. We avoid extremely strongly
valued, or strongly growing or strongly yielding stocks –as
these too can be problematic.
Income Stocks: Yields alone do not
ensure shareholder returns
Yields provide downside protection. If the stocks price
should fall, yields increase, ensuring a floor to price falls.
But growth and valuation criteria mean the company should
get selected rapidly and rise again.
Growth Stocks: Can be over-valued
and not exceed expectations causing
price declines
Our stocks are already relatively undervalued so strong
growth means expectations are usually exceeded resulting
in strong price rises.
Exits based on entry criteria We do not want to exit when our stocks are, say, fully
valued. We want them to be overvalued when we exit. So
our exits are based not on our entry criteria, but time – the
optimal time, without back-test over-fitting, we think it takes
for shareholder returns to be maximised, which based on
VGI criteria is 12 months.

Value Growth Income: USP
Transaction costs cause
cost drag due to large
number of portfolio holdings
Our portfolio stocks have the same downside
impact as the largest 10-20 holdings of a
GBP200m fund. We don’t need 100 holdings
and the costs inherent in them to diversify
away risk. But our concentration generates
Alpha due to our stock selection skills.
Style Drift By having a combination of styles we should
‘smooth’ the effects and downsides of any
one style.
Poor bear market
performance
Our stocks represent target ‘flight to quality’
stocks in bear markets.
