We seek to outperform by investing in companies whose current valuations understate what we believe to be their long-term earnings growth potential based on our fundamental evaluations. We assess companies for their quality, value and momentum.
We believe micro to midcap companies are commonly overlooked because their small capitalization makes them uninvestable by Wall Street. Yet these small-cap companies form the largest investable opportunity set globally.
With worldwide economic connectedness, we believe the merit of a company must be understood within the global landscape.
At Grandeur Peak, we focus on inefficient markets to find great companies at reasonable valuations and hold them long term while they grow their earnings.
We use fundamental analysis to identify high-quality companies for our portfolios.
We believe a Best-in-Class growth company has strong financials, a quality management team, and a sound business model with a sustainable competitive advantage.
A Fallen Angel is a high-quality growth company that we believe has hit a temporary setback relative to its long-term growth potential and thus may be trading at an attractive valuation.
A Stalwart is a maturing Best-in-Class company that continues to grow earnings. We seek an appealing valuation relative to the company’s long-term growth potential.
