Alatus invests in a concentrated, high-conviction portfolio of 15-20 positions with an investment horizon of 3-5 years, and frequently longer.
A disciplined, bottom-up, free-cash-flow based approach to securities valuation and selection is applied, and combined with Private Equity-like independent market research and competitive analysis. Portfolio companies generate strong, visible and growing free cash flow, and enjoy sustainable barriers to entry to value added niches, leading to high and defensible returns on capital. The team seeks to enter positions at attractive equity FCF yields, and thrives to identify upcoming inflections in FCF to achieve significant capital appreciation.
The Firm invests in companies that are steered by strong management teams, whose interests are aligned to shareholders’, and where quality corporate governance practices are in place. The team regularly engages in open-ended and constructive dialogues with the management teams of our portfolio companies. Alatus will seek to drive outcomes via activism when deemed appropriate.
