Pursuing Quality, Sustainable Growth and Reasonable Valuation
We are laser-focused on finding quality companies that can deliver growth that is stronger and more enduring than the market’s expectations.
These companies are rare, so when we find them we pursue them with confidence and conviction—but we never abandon our valuation discipline.
Our team and investment philosophy are united by a common belief—that quality companies with sustainable growth at attractive valuations can drive above-average, long-term investment returns.

Our investors seek the long-term risk and return characteristics that only a specialist, high conviction fundamental manager can provide.
We invest confidently at the intersection of sustainable growth, quality and reasonable valuations.
Our analysis of quality is forward-looking, focusing on qualitative attributes that lead to sustainable growth. The Confidence Quotient (CQ) is our proprietary analytical framework that quantifies how we think about quality.
We believe that the power of long-term, compounding growth is underappreciated by the market and offers unrecognized investment opportunity. Our extended investment horizon is a crucial part of how we generate alpha.
We don’t chase growth at any price. We insist on a valuation that is justified by the firm’s growth potential. Our valuation discipline creates a growth margin of safety.
CQ provides structure to how our team evaluates quality, bringing rigor, measurability and consistency to the process of assessing five elements of quality that we score and track over time. Each element of CQ is backed by a detailed scorecard that provides a framework for determining our confidence in the company’s quality.
