About the Adviser
SouthernSun Asset Management, established in 1989, is a research-driven investment management firm implementing Small Cap, SMID Cap, Focused U.S. and Focused Global investment strategies. Our name reflects a commitment to shed light on investment opportunities both at home and around the globe.
SouthernSun invests in niche-dominant, attractively valued companies with financial flexibility and uniquely fitted management teams. SouthernSun believes careful, in-depth analysis of a company’s financial strength and human capital is the most comprehensive method of assigning proper valuations, identifying catalysts and reducing risk of investment.
SouthernSun believes there is no substitute for knowing each company we invest in as if it were our own. This belief compels us to be thorough, diligent and patient in our study of each individual company. An integral part of this process is knowing management, its business environment, and operational strengths, and viewing the company “through the eyes of its management team” as well as an objective outside investor.
We are absolute return-oriented and invest with a core-value approach as we apply disciplined financial analysis and extensive on-site research to gain an “information advantage.” We feel the depth and breadth of our research allows us to more quickly and clearly identify buy/sell catalysts.
