Palm Valley Capital Fund

Investment Objective

The Palm Valley Capital Fund seeks to achieve long-term total return. 

Principal Investment Strategies

  • The Fund primarily invests in a portfolio of small capitalization common stocks.  The Fund considers small-cap companies to be those that, at the time of investment, have a market capitalization of less than $10 billion.

  • Under normal circumstances, the Fund will hold common stocks
    of fewer than 40 different companies.

  • The Adviser to the Fund is Palm Valley Capital Management.  The
    Adviser narrows down its investable universe by primarily focusing on those small-cap companies that it believes are more likely to grow consistently, have long operating histories, are profitable and have historically generated positive free cash flow, and possess strong balance sheets.

  • Once the Adviser has identified companies meeting its
    quantitative and qualitative criteria, it seeks to purchase high-quality businesses that it believes to be trading below fair value
    and are less likely to experience a permanent loss in value.

  • The Adviser uses the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) valuation
    model as its primary valuation methodology.

  • To manage risk, the Adviser uses a flexible and opportunistic
    approach to the Fund's cash position.
      The Fund may hold a
    significant position in cash or cash equivalents for an extended
    period of time.
