1 DHFL Pramerica Deep Value Strategy

2 Be Yourself To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment - Ralph Waldo Emerson

3 PMS in an Investor s Portfolio Should be complementary to the client s mutual fund portfolio Should have a different investment philosophy and style Being different, a PMS helps the client diversify across products effectively

4 How can a PMS be different? Be less affected by daily or monthly comparison Stick to a disciplined and logical investment philosophy Focus on the long term only

5 Two broad ways to invest successfully. Method 1 List out the critical success factors in investing and try and follow the same Method 2 List out the most probable causes for failure and try and avoid them The avoidance of loss is the surest way to ensure a profitable outcome - Seth Klarman

6 Temporary versus Permanent loss For an investor, the real risk in the stock market is the risk of permanent loss All shares are subject to price fluctuations; therefore temporary losses are unavoidable Permanent loss occurs when an investment is made In a substandard business In a company where the management is questionable At a price that is exorbitantly high

7 Our proposition A portfolio construction that takes active steps to reduce the incidence of the three major causes of permanent loss, thereby increasing the chances of success over the long term A portfolio that is by and large different to the mainline mutual funds, thereby acting as a diversification tool for the investor

8 A robust process to refine investment choices About Total # companies listed in India # companies in the investment universe Track Record Filter Size Filter Earnings Power Filter # companies in the portfolio Price Filter

9 Stock Investment Universe Consistent track record of generating above average Return on Capital Employed (RoCE*) Consistent track record of generating positive Free Cash Flows History of positive Minority Shareholder Bias Investment Universe of companies Points towards sustainable Growth in Earnings

10 When do we sell a stock? When the assumptions with which the stock was purchased in the first place are no longer valid When the stock s price goes well beyond what we think it is worth* When for the same perceived level of risk, we spot a superior opportunity* When there is a redemption request (*) Note: It shall be our endeavour to keep the chances of short term capital gains taxes to the minimum. Therefore to the extent possible, we shall refrain from selling within a period of 12 months

11 Buying when the future is uncertain A stock is available cheap only when the general market does not expect it to do well in the short term Therefore, if an investor wishes to beat the market he/she should purchase the stock before the market does (i.e., buy when the fear caused by the uncertainty still exists in the minds of most investors) If one is confident about the quality of the company and its longterm earnings power, then its short term price movement should be of less importance High uncertainty is frequently accompanied by low prices. By the time the uncertainty is resolved, prices are likely to have risen - Seth Klarman in Margin of Safety

12 Advantages of buying early There is less competition to buy and therefore prices are more attractive Helps accumulate a decent quantity before the price moves up Significant holding helps the overall portfolio if the stock goes up manifold If price falls after the initial purchase, we have the chance to buy more of a good company s stock at a cheaper price

18 Why invest with us? Bulk of the participants in the market seek quicker returns and tend to avoid opportunities that do not show a promise of quicker returns The Strategy sees an investment opportunity by having a different time horizon to investing. We see opportunities in good businesses when they are in the midst of temporary difficulties If such an opportunity arises in a poor business, we are not interested in exploiting it. Our proposition is to buy good businesses ignored by a majority of investors in the market, and hold them till they become popular again An investment process that naturally provides the investor with a qualitatively different portfolio
