Insights of the holiday schedule for Consistent Compounder Portfolio:

Marcellus’ research process tends to judge the long-term sustainability of competitive advantages and fundamentals of companies instead of being influenced by short term noise around macro events such as raw material, cost inflation, weak monsoon, GST, demonetization, war in Ukraine, etc.  The short term (12-24 months) share price performance of any stock, including a CCP stock, rarely tells the investor anything useful about how fundamentals of the company are shaping up, or how the current share price stands relative to the intrinsic value of these firms. History suggests that when quality stocks go through phases of weak returns, they come back stronger, so long as their management implements initiatives to strengthen business fundamentals and competitive advantages. Hence, we back our fundamental conviction even in periods of subdued returns and stay invested (or increase our position).

What to do in rising interest rates regime – increase allocation in high quality BFSI companies

During three of the four rising interest cycles over the past two decades, the Bank Nifty has outperformed the Nifty with large CASA backed private banks further outperforming the Bank Nifty during these cycles.

i) banks with strong CASA franchisees and good risk management to see an improvement in net interest margins (NIMs) alongside steady asset quality;

ii) improved profitability for insurers as they make higher investment income on their float, leading to higher RoEs.

iii) Unlike banks and insurers, NBFCs do not see any benefit in absolute terms from interest rate hikes. However, NBFCs with good parentage and well-matched ALM have a significant competitive advantage over other NBFCs in a rising interest rate environment.

Auditing PromotersHow do we know which Promoter(s) to back?

At Marcellus, one of the key factors of selecting a company is to gauge the cleanliness and competency of the promoters. This becomes a very strong point especially while selecting small cap stocks- Taking a call on small cap company is, to a large extent, taking a call on the promoter(s). Below are the few points which we give a lot of importance while choosing promoters:

  1. Efficient capital allocation—this includes on whether the promoter prioritizes reinvestments over dividends
  2. Having SKIN IN THE GAME—We see the extent to which the promoter is financially & emotionally invested in single mindedly running the Company which takes into consideration factors like % of the promoter’s shareholding, the extent to which his/her remuneration is linked to the financial performance, his/her business interests outside the company, etc.
  3. Succession planning framework– decentralization of decision making amongst members of the Board, CXOs, as well as ground level execution through systems and processes

Most of our Little Champs promoters do very well on the above parameters. While promoter dominance does raise risks surrounding governance and succession, we address these through our forensic & succession planning frameworks.
