Our Partnership Principles

We will communicate with you regularly and in

a straightforward manner. We will not sugarcoat

or exaggerate the truth. We will never promise

what we cannot deliver.

We will continue to keep a substantial percentage

of our net worth invested along your side, as

have many of our family members and friends.

Rest assured that our interests are aligned with

yours.

We will strive to manage your capital to maximize

long-term results and will gladly accept

“bumpier” short-term results to achieve them.

We will look at risk before return and will ignore

high-risk opportunities regardless of potential

payoffs.

Our Strategy

We invest globally in great businesses that have durable economic moats, favorable customer economics, consistent financial results, high and stable returns on capital, strong cash flow generation, and attractive capital redeployment opportunities.

We do that by buying securities of great companies with able and shareholder-oriented managements, a conservative capital structure, and a strong track record of rational capital allocation.

We pay reasonable prices for these securities, giving us a margin of safety on our investment, and we place significant amounts of our capital into such rare opportunities and continue to own such companies as long as these conditions are satisfied.

We are patient and disciplined. We don’t view ourselves as investing in little pieces of paper that trade in markets. Behind every stock there is a real business and we, the shareholders, collectively own that business. This mental framework drives our decision-making process. Many in the investment field call us value investors, we call ourselves businesspeople.

Most of the time, the successful execution of our strategy requires us to act against the crowd. Or, in the words of Warren Buffett: “Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.” Our edge over other market participants is in having a much longer investment horizon, better temperament, and the investment discipline to stay the course, especially in down and volatile markets.

Letter from the Managing Director

For the three months ending June 30, 2020, Mayar Fund (Class A) returned 19.5% net of all expenses and fees while the MSCI World Index increased by 19.4% Since its inception in May 2011, Mayar Fund is up 129.6% net versus a 97.6% increase for the MSCI. That corresponds to a 9.5% annualized rate of return for Mayar Fund, compared to 7.7% for the MSCI.

I write to you today from our office in Clerkenwell on my first day back after working from home for the past four months. And what a four months it has been!

It was one of the most, if not the most, intense and exhausting period of my professional career both intellectually and emotionally. I’m sure many of you feel the same.

While the Great Financial Crisis of 2008-2009 was also emotionally draining because it kept dragging on and on without an end in sight, I think an important difference this time around is the amount of information we are regularly bombarded with on our smartphones. The never-ending alerts and notifications make it difficult to disconnect. They make it very hard to see the forest for the trees.

Restaurant kitchens are one of the most intense work environments. I experienced that first-hand many years ago when I managed a restaurant company in Saudi Arabia. One of the things you learn when you work in a busy restaurant kitchen is how to tune out the noise all around you and focus on the task at hand. Among all the yelling, machine noises, and visual distractions, there are clear “signals” that you need to listen for that are key to performing the job at whichever kitchen station you happen to be at. Investing is, in many ways, similar. The past few months have been an extreme example of that.

Most of what we read, see, and hear every day as investors is pure noise that adds no value to what we do. So, while the challenge for previous generations of investors may have been finding enough information, the challenge for our generation is controlling

General Commentary

Page 11: MAYAR FUND LTD...2020/07/06  · Mayar Fund Class A (Initial Series) - Since Inception Value of $100,000 invested AM M F N $229,556 $197,640 $114 $80,000 $100,000 $120,000 $140,000

the fire hose of information that we get hit with every moment of every day. It is filtering out the signal from the noise.

In a crisis, horizons shrink to an extremely short period for many people. Investors, policymakers, and individuals ignore the future almost completely and fixate on the here and now. Survival becomes an overwhelming concern.

But while survival is no doubt important — there’s no future without it — the future still matters a lot when making most decisions. And it is in these shrinking-horizon market environments that attractive long-term investment opportunities are born.

Because we’ve already done our homework and have identified many great businesses that we want to own, all we had to do in the midst of the panic in March and April was to ask ourselves the only two remaining questions that matter: 1) will this company survive until the crisis is over? and 2) will it be worth a lot more in five years than it’s selling for right now? If the answer to both is yes, then our job is to tune out the noise, focus on the long run, and take advantage of these opportunities. The March-April period was our most active period since inception.

Now, let us turn to the elephant in the room; the US stock market recovery! The S&P 500 is now within 5 or 6% of its record high in February, right before this pandemic started spreading around the world. Nasdaq is at a record high, around 5 or 6% above it’s February highs. With COVID-19 cases still rising in many US states, unemployment near record highs, and the economy starting to recover but still well below where it was in February, one has to wonder why is it that the US market has fully recovered? Why is the stock market so disconnected from what’s happening in the real economy?

I’ve been thinking about this question a lot over the past few weeks and I have a few ideas that could help explain things. Please do take them with a grain of salt as talking about the overall market is not my core competency. I usually shy away from these discussions, but many of you have been individually asking me about my opinion over the past few weeks and I think it’s only fair that I share my thoughts on the matter with all of you.

1. Let me start by saying that the stock market never has and really shouldn’t represent the current economy. Stocks represent “claims” on companies’ future earnings (more technically, free cash flows) from now until Judgement Day. What happens in any one quarter or year doesn’t matter that much in calculating the total value of these claims. When a stock goes down on bad news it’s because investors expect that the bad news would cause a permanent reduction in future cash flows. Therefore, one potential explanation for the market’s current levels is the outlook for the earnings power of US Corporations over the next 20 or 30 years hasn’t changed by much since February.

2. Another factor to consider is the general level of interest rates. If you lend your

Page 12: MAYAR FUND LTD...2020/07/06  · Mayar Fund Class A (Initial Series) - Since Inception Value of $100,000 invested AM M F N $229,556 $197,640 $114 $80,000 $100,000 $120,000 $140,000

money for ten years to the US government today, you will get paid a fixed 0.65% per annum in interest. If you buy Microsoft shares on the other hand, Microsoft will pay you 1% in dividends this year and this dividend will probably grow over time. Back in February lending money to the US government earned you double the current interest rate so the attractiveness of Microsoft’s 1% dividend relative to lending money to the government has changed substantially. This means that holding everything else equal, the same stock is worth more today than it was in February. In fact, it might still be worth more even if the company’s outlook for the next 20-30 years has deteriorated. You can see this effect very clearly in the performance of stable dividend paying companies such as consumer staples.

3. The third factor to consider is that a big chunk of the S&P 500’s recovery has been driven by the performance of a handful of companies. The top five companies (Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Alphabet) now constitute 22% of the index and have driven an even higher percentage of the index’s performance. The index’s performance does not reflect the performance of the average stock or even most stocks. If we look at the S&P 500 equal-weighted index (which still includes those 5 technology names, just without the concentration in weight), we find that it’s sitting 14% below its February highs. You see a similar picture if you look at other US indices such as the Russell 2000, which is down 15%. For the same reason, European indices which don’t have heavy technology weights are significantly below their highs with the MSCI Europe down 16% and the FTSE 100 down 20%.

4. The question then becomes, are those technology names extremely expensive? Are we seeing a new tech bubble? In principle, I’m far more inclined to accept that a handful of stocks are mispriced than accept that all or most stocks are. The market is right on most things, most of the time. But there are also reasons to believe that the market could be right about pricing those tech stocks as well. They have proven to be resilient, they continue to grow when most companies struggle, and they produce prodigious amounts of cash flows that are now being discounted at much lower rates, as I’ve mentioned in #2 above. So, while I think the market is likely mispricing these technology names, I’m willing to accept that there’s a good chance that I’m wrong. Time will tell.

5. Governments around the world have provided and continue to provide unprecedented amounts of fiscal stimulus. Unlike monetary stimulus which I think is not always effective, fiscal spending is going directly into the real economy and helping offset some of the decline in demand caused by the pandemic. This should be factored in by investors because it will help speed-up the recovery, and we’re already starting to see some of evidence of that.

You will notice that I failed to mention the effects of “liquidity” coming from central banks in the above discussion. That’s because I think counting it as another factor would be redundant. Fundamentally, I think monetary stimulus would have its most

pronounced effect in the factors mentioned in #2 and #4 above.

In summary, I think most stocks are currently trading near their fair value. Some might be overpriced and in certain cases egregiously so. A tiny minority, mostly outside the US, still present attractive buying opportunities.

During the quarter, we increased our investment in homebuilders, adding to our positions in Toll Brothers, Redrow, Vistry, and initiated a new position in UK homebuilder Taylor Wimpey. We also increased our investment in SAP and Booking Holdings.

We trimmed our investments in Alphabet, LabCorp and Visa and we fully exited our investments in Dunelm and Microsoft. All for valuation reasons.

I would like to welcome the newest member of our team, Stefan Dawidowski, who joined us as Chief Operating Officer on June 1st. Stefan has extensive operations experience, having worked in investment banks and the alternative asset management industry for the past twenty years. He joins Mayar Capital from ALMA Capital Management Luxembourg where he set up the Investment Management function and served as a CSSF regulated Conducting Officer. Prior to this, for nine years Stefan was Head of Operations and Trade Flow Technology for Eikoh Research Investment Management, an FCA-regulated Japanese equity hedge fund. He has also worked for Altima Partners LLP, Deutsche Bank in London and Singapore, and for BNP Paribas in London.

I would also like to welcome several new partners that have invested in this quarter. All have been recommended to us by existing partners who remain our preferred way of finding like-minded investors. We remain open to new investors who share our ethical values and investment philosophy.

We ended the quarter with $114.4m in Assets Under Management (AUM) at Mayar Capital, a new record.

As always, I remain available if you have any questions or thoughts.

Best regards,

Abdulaziz A. Alnaim, CFA
