Mid-Caps - “Sweet Spot” of the Market
We believe mid-caps offer an attractive opportunity to capitalize on pricing inefficiencies. Compared to larger-cap companies, many mid-caps are underfollowed by Wall Street analysts. Yet, mid-caps generally possess stronger balance sheets to withstand economic weakness and have deeper, more experienced management teams than their smaller-cap counterparts.
Focus on Well-Capitalized Businesses
As bottom-up, fundamental managers, the Portfolio Managers seek well-capitalized mid-sized businesses that fit the following criteria:
- Own strong, market-leading franchises with high barriers to entry.
- Generate significant free cash flow.
- Possess robust balance sheets.
- Run by strong management teams with track records of deploying free cash flow in shareholder-friendly ways.
We believe these companies have the potential to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle.
