Because markets are not perfectly efficient, mispricing can occur when there is a fundamental misunderstanding about a company. The small cap market is especially prone to mispricing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-an-emerging-landscape\">An Emerging Landscape<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many smaller companies operate in rapidly evolving markets that are giving rise to new industries or market segments. Additionally, these companies may have relatively short track records as public companies, creating skepticism about their growth trajectories. Think about Amazon in its early days when people did not understand how book sales and broader retail categories could be revolutionized online, displacing individual stores by centralizing warehousing and distribution. This type of ambiguity creates an opportunity to use in-depth research to identify the small subset of companies that are positioned to succeed over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-limited-analyst-coverage\">Limited Analyst Coverage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the small cap market lacks in-depth analyst coverage. Analysts tend to focus their attention on larger companies, which are more widely known and have a larger impact on the market, as illustrated in the chart below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"459\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806-1100x459.jpg\" alt=\"Average number of analysts per stock\" class=\"wp-image-207465 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806-1100x459.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806-700x292.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806-1536x641.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Stocks-Per-Analyst_1717010806.jpg 1817w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/459;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: FactSet. Data as of June 2023. Large, mid, and small cap indexes are S&amp;P 500, S&amp;P MidCap 400, and S&amp;P SmallCap 600, respectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you couple the market inefficiencies created by both the potential mystery around smaller companies and lower analyst coverage, experienced investors can add value through disciplined fundamental research. In his book,&nbsp;<em>Pioneering Portfolio Management<\/em>, former Yale University Chief Investment Officer David Swensen wrote:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Because Wall Street finds following smaller companies far less profitable, in terms of both day-to-day trading opportunities and occasional investment banking transactions, investors face the prospect of uncovering some interesting, mispriced investment opportunities. Although success demands hard work,&nbsp;small capitalization equity managers with an edge have a reasonable shot at generating attractive relative returns.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-successfully-navigating-the-small-cap-growth-market\">Successfully Navigating the Small Cap Growth Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all small cap companies will be able to grow and create shareholder value. It is critical to deploy a disciplined approach to identify those companies that can deliver sustainable growth over a multi-year horizon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have found that focusing on a high-conviction portfolio of carefully selected businesses has allowed us to deliver strong results over time. Companies in our portfolio must meet our standard of quality, growth, and valuation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-quality\">Quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the small cap market includes many unproven and unprofitable companies, it is critical to focus on quality businesses. We define \u201cquality\u201d as companies with the following four characteristics: (1) a distinct proprietary advantage; (2) a leading position in the industry; (3) potential for margin expansion; and (4) the presence of a strong management team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through our in-depth fundamental research, we identify a select group of quality companies and generally avoid unprofitable and\/or highly levered businesses. Our San Francisco location gives us the opportunity to perform ground-floor research with many of our portfolio companies and their competitors, as well as meet with management teams frequently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-secular-growth\">Secular Growth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are also committed to finding companies that are experiencing durable secular growth, as opposed to cyclical businesses that are simply benefitting from a strengthening economy. In other words, we are looking for companies that operate in a sector or industry that is undergoing a structural transformation, as this generally translates into an expanding customer base as well as pricing power. Historically, we have found that secular growth drives sustainable increases in both customer demand and revenue growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, secular growth usually marks a permanent shift in purchasing patterns. Sometimes it is because an older, inferior product is replaced by a better one (e.g., flip phones -&gt; smart phones), and sometimes it is because something entirely new comes along (e.g., cloud computing, artificial intelligence). We focus on smaller companies with the innovative DNA to deliver superior value to customers. By contrast, incumbents, which are frequently larger companies, can get caught off-guard. As Alphabet\u2019s CEO recently admitted, \u201cscale isn\u2019t always good for you since it makes it harder to \u201cmove fast [and] maintain a culture of risk-taking.\u201d He added that \u201ccounter-intuitively \u2026 the more successful things are, the more risk-averse people become.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our portfolio is built around companies that can deliver durable increases in demand, so it has maintained much higher revenue growth than the index.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"543\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-1100x543.jpg\" alt=\"Median company revenue growth rate fourth quarter, 2023\" class=\"wp-image-207463 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-1100x543.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-700x345.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-768x379.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-1536x758.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/OSTGX-Median-Company_1716993449-2048x1011.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/543;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: FactSet. The figures above exclude companies where data was not available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-valuation\">Valuation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Buying at the right time is nearly as important as buying the right companies. Because of their distinctive growth\/quality characteristics, the companies in our portfolio tend to trade at premiums compared to many names in the index, which have lower growth and\/or profits. We are patient investors that wait for appropriate entry points. In selecting investments, we utilize an absolute valuation discipline \u2013 each new position must have 100% upside potential based on our five-year earnings model using an industry appropriate P\/E ratio of no more than 30x, and we generally trim when the upside falls to 50% or lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-final-thoughts\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Identifying and exploiting mispricing opportunities is always challenging, but it is less so in an inefficient market like small cap growth, which contains many relatively unknown companies. This allows us to conduct our own due diligence and formulate a differentiated view, which can lead to substantial upside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a combination of quality, growth, and valuation, we have established a repeatable method of finding these opportunities to drive long-term returns. This disciplined approach has led to outperformance versus the Russell 2000 Growth since the inception of the fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally Posted May 30, 2024 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osterweis.com\/insights\/active-pays-scg\">Active Pays in Small Cap Growth<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Market inefficiencies create opportunities for active managers.
