Merewether Capital is a specialist micro and small cap boutique funds management firm. Co-founded by Luke Winchester and backed by ARC Funds (ASX:ARC), the firm operates with a focus on absolute performance, driven by a commitment to deep fundamental research and understanding of the businesses that we invest in.

Merewether Capital invests in all industries with a preference to avoid speculative industries such as resource explorers, pre-clinical biotechs and pre-revenue technology.

Fund Objective

The Fund’s objective is to outperform an absolute return hurdle of 6% per annum over a rolling 5-year period by investing in undervalued, yet profitable ASX listed small and micro-cap companies.

Investment Strategy

Investing in a concentrated portfolio (10-25 positions) of primarily ex-ASX100 listed equities with a focus on profitable, growing small and micro-cap ASX-listed companies. A typical investment will meet the following criteria:

  • Management ownership
  • Growth prospects
  • Reasonable valuation
  • Simple financial accounts

While simple, in small caps each criterion may not be obvious and may require significant digging under the surface to understand the true investment potential.
