Investment philosophy

The bedrock of Perpetua’s investment philosophy is valueorientation. We invest in assets which offer value and that are trading at a meaningful discount to their intrinsic/ fundamental value. We believe that an asset’s price and its intrinsic/fundamental value are not always in line, as asset prices are more volatile than underlying fundamental value. The reason for asset price volatility is largely due to the effect of market sentiment and human emotion on the daily pricing of assets, which creates mispricing in the short term. This mispricing provides opportunities for those who seek to exploit these anomalies. Taking advantage of this mispricing requires a form of contrarian mindset and an ability to invest based on convictions and not on popularity or herding. Our key focus at Perpetua therefore is on determining an asset’s intrinsic/fundamental value and we seek to achieve this in a holistic way. Whilst it is difficult to predict precisely when the price of a security and its intrinsic value will converge, by focusing our attention on ensuring our investment research is thorough and up-to-date, and that we as investors remain patient enough for the investment thesis to be fulfilled.

The key tenets of our investment philosophy are that:

● We are valuation-based

● We seek a margin of safety when investing

● We adopt an holistic approach in considering the fundamental qualities of a business

● We employ a long term view when considering the prospects of a business.
