Why we think BWX is worth watching
Tim Kelley
March 23, 2017
A little-known company we hold is BWX Limited. This small Melbourne-based company owns a range of skin and hair care brands. It also manufactures cosmetics for third parties. Shares in BWX began trading on the ASX in November 2015 at $2.12. They have doubled since then, and we think there’s more good news ahead. continue…

The road ahead looks good for outdoor advertisers
Stuart Jackson
March 20, 2017
These days, it’s hard to go far without being distracted by outdoor advertising. Displays are everywhere: from roadsides to shopping malls to bus stops. We believe the industry is poised to enjoy continued revenue growth. And this should benefit businesses like oOh!media and APN Outdoor – which have tabled a $1.6 billion merger – and QMS Media. continue…

Why Chorus Limited looks undervalued
Tim Kelley
March 16, 2017
One slightly unusual holding in our domestic funds is Chorus Limited (CNU), New Zealand’s largest owner of telecommunications networks. CNU has had a bumpy ride this last year, but we think the market has marked it down too far due to regulatory uncertainty. If we are right, then the company should re-rate. continue…

Stuart Jackson
March 9, 2017
Seek is a high quality business that has been a core part of our portfolio for a few years. We like Seek for a number of reasons.

Was Ramsay’s Chris Rex really worth a billion dollars?
Ben MacNevin
March 2, 2017
Ramsay Health Care produced a great result for the first half of FY17 and kept its tradition of upgrading full-year guidance. The market should have received this result well, particularly in light of weak industry activity, were it not for one bit of unexpected news – the retirement of CEO, Chris Rex. continue…

Reviewing Isentia
Tim Kelley
February 23, 2017
As many investors have noted, iSentia Limited (ASX: ISD) delivered a poor earnings announcement yesterday. The Montgomery Fund and Montgomery [Private] Fund both hold positions in ISD, and so this is clearly disappointing for us. The combined holdings amounted to less than 2% of the assets in those Funds before the announcement, so the damage was contained, but nonetheless, disappointing. continue…

Why we continue to like Challenger
Roger Montgomery
February 20, 2017
Challenger Financial Group (ASX:CGF) has over $60b in assets, commands the leading market position in annuities, and has a growth profile that should be supported by a rising tide of superannuation assets. We like the business – it’s one of Montgomery’s larger positions. Our views were confirmed this week, when Challenger presented its interim results.
