Egerton Capital LimitedInvestment process

– A fundamental approach to stock selection is taken which is detailed, intensive and forensic

– Strong valuation disciplines are used in the search for equities with the potential for meaningful multiple expansion

– In this process, longer-term investment time frames are utilised

– This “bottom-up” approach creates a portfolio that is dynamic, eclectic and uncorrelated

– Disciplined research and a strong quality/value bias are important elements in on-going portfolio monitoring

Egerton Capital LimitedPortfolio construction

– There is one pool of capital

– Decision making is led by John Armitage, the CIO, working together with the analysts

– The fund’s exposures are principally driven by individual, stock by stock investment decisions

– Wholesale “exposure management” is limited to times when it is perceived that there is a marked change in the financial environment, and/or where relative performance has deteriorated significantly

– Shorts are considered profit centres and not used for funding

– The top 20 holdings typically account for between one half and three quarters of the portfolio’s gross long position

Egerton Capital LimitedRisk control

– “Know what you own”: detailed and forensic knowledge of all constituents within the portfolio is crucial to success

– The goal is to create a diversified portfolio out of an eclectic/uncorrelated group of stocks

– Emphasis on portfolio liquidity is permanent

– Leverage is used sparingly as has been the case since inception

– Cash levels are raised where appropriate, and derivatives are used as “disaster insurance” within a budget

– Individual position sizes are usually limited to no more than 5%-7% of equity at book cost, and small cap position sizes are limited to 0.5%-1.0% of the same

Egerton Capital LimitedStock examples

VISA Inc. – The world’s leading brand and network for credit and debit card payments– Key play, with no credit risk, on multiple trends of cash/cheque replacement and “bancarisation”– Most developed market – USA – still seeing highly positive trends:

– Credit card expenditure has reached a cyclical trough– Debit card spend increasingly replacing cash and cheque, and growing 20% YoY– “Prepaid” card market reaching out to un/under banked (estimated up to 80mn Americans)– Ongoing growth in card usage for business/tourism is accelerating valuable “cross border” volumes– Tapping ever more merchant categories: Quick Service Restaurants, Taxis, Car Parking, Healthcare– Rapid growth of eCommerce is clearly highly geared to card usage

– Developing markets benefit from similar trends, plus ongoing “bancarisation”:– Brazilian card volumes growing at 24% YoY– 85% of Brazilian card usage still at the ATM (no economics for Visa) vs. 15% at POS (Visa earns money)– Russian growth only fell to 40%+ in recession. Top 4 retailers don’t even accept cards today.– High potential for new technology to leapfrog developed world – like cellular: mobile payments, transportation

– High operational leverage, with negligible marginal cost per transaction captured/processed– Strongly cash generative: sitting on $5bn, and generating US$2bn+ annually for dividends and buybacks
