The Fund invests primarily in the securities of U.S. companies, but it may also invest outside of the U.S. Wedgewood seeks investments in market leaders with dominant products or services that are irreplaceable or lack substitutes in todays economy. Wedgewood invests for the long-term, and expects to hold securities, in many cases, for more than five years. Wedgewoods investment process involves rigorous qualitative and quantitative inputs as well as a strict valuation and risk discipline. Wedgewoods quantitative process seeks to differentiate among the 500-600 largest companies to separate those which exhibit factors such as above-average returns on equity, returns on capital, cash flow returns on investment, earnings per share growth and revenue growth. The qualitative process then focuses on the sustainability of the companys business model with particular emphasis on barriers to entry, competition and relative buyer/supplier leverage. Wedgewood next uses a valuation model to forecast future performance for sales, earnings and financial position to create absolute valuation projections for the companys intrinsic value seeking to invest in a focused (19-21 securities) portfolio of its highest conviction ideas. Positions are reduced or eliminated from the portfolio over time when long-term growth rates fall below Wedgewoods expectations, a superior opportunity becomes available and/or appreciation results in an excessively large holding in the portfolio.
