Fund OverviewThe Fund is index unaware with an absolute return focus. The Fund seeks to invest in companies generating strong cashflows at attractive valuations. In absence of attractive investments being identified, the fund will hold cash. Glenmore will use a fundamental, research driven investment process to identify undervalued securities.

The main driver of identifying potential investments will be bottom up company analysis, however macro-economic conditions will be considered as part of the investment thesis for each stock.
Manager CommentsThe Glenmore Australian Equities Fund rose +0.53% in January, taking 12-month performance to +10.66% vs the ASX200 Accumulation Index's -3.11%. Since inception in June 2017, the Fund has returned +22.05% p.a. vs the Index's +7.95%.

The Fund's Sharpe and Sortino ratios (since inception), 0.94 and 1.12 respectively, by contrast with the Index's Sharpe of 0.50 and Sortino of 0.53, highlight its capacity to produce superior risk-adjusted returns while avoiding the market's downside volatility. The Fund's up-capture ratio (since inception) of 211.6% indicates that, on average, the Fund has risen more than twice as much as the market during the market's positive months.

Top contributors in January included Coronado Global Resources, ARB Corporation, Dicker Data, Uniti Group and Integral Diagnostics. Key detractors included Polynovo, Magellan Financial Group and Mineral Resources.

Glenmore noted that, while congnisant that pockets of elevated valuations across the ASX are emerging, they continue to be very confident in the medium and long-term earnings prospects for the portfolio's holdings.
