Introduction to Hunter Hall

Chief Investment OfficerHunter Hall Investment Management

May 2016

1. Investing is NOT a competition. Its objectives are to preserve capital and to make money NOT to outperform indices or other managers.

2. However, the investment management industry IS a competition. Its objectives are outperform benchmarks and other managers.

3. It is therefore highly prone to dangerous behaviours such as being fully invested at all times, index-hugging, selling positions because they have become a large part of the portfolio or favouring momentum over value.

How did we do it?

What is Value?

Momentum investing:

What a stock can be sold for = “exchange” value

Value investing:

The cash a stock will generate = “utility” value

8

Utility Value = Intrinsic Value

9

Intrinsic Value =

The Net Present Value of Future Cashflows after

• Capital Investment to maintain Operating Capital• Capital investment to maintain Competitive Position• Capital Investment for Growth• Tax• Inflation
