Through investment in high quality companies, the portfolio management team seeks to build a portfolio that may participate in rising markets while minimizing participation in declining markets. Quality is determined by analysis of a companys financial statements and is measured by a companys demonstrated ability to consistently grow earnings over the long-term. The portfolio managers believe that high quality companies typically have strong balance sheets, sustainable cash flow, enduring competitive advantages, long product cycles, and stable demand over a business cycle, among other characteristics. The portfolio managers also may utilize financial quality rankings provided by nationally recognized rating services when determining quality. The portfolio managers are responsible for fundamental analysis and security selection. They typically favor high quality companies they believe have sustainable above-average earnings growth potential and are trading below intrinsic value. Sustainable earnings growth potential is determined by fundamental analysis of a companys financial trends; products and services; industry position and conditions; and other factors including portfolio managers assessment of company management. The portfolio managers seek to manage individual security risk through analysis of each securitys risk/reward potential and to manage portfolio risk by constructing a portfolio of what they believe to be attractively valued growth companies. The portfolio managers may sell a security when its fundamentals deteriorate, when its valuation is no longer attractive, or when other securities are identified to displace a current holding.
