Finding Quality Companies With Great Business Value
Our goal is to achieve superior long-term investment returns while minimizing volatility and risk. To accomplish this, we adhere to our investment philosophy based on belief that success is driven by two characteristics.
The Clarkston Credo is to build lasting relationships with select clients by providing investment excellence, sound educational advice, and exceptional customized service. |
Purchase quality companies with enviable business economics. We define high quality as those that possess sustainable competitive advantages resulting in consistently high cash returns on net operating assets (CRONOA ™) and management teams capable of generating high returns on capital.
Our philosophy is governed by a discipline to purchase those companies only when trading at a reasonable discount to their intrinsic value. We believe that future free cash flow determines a company’s business value.
We manage two equity strategies: The Clarkston Small-Cap Equity Strategy and The Clarkston Large-Cap Equity Strategy. Both strategies are governed by our disciplined investment methodology which results in a concentrated portfolio of quality businesses.
