European Equities: Fear, loathing & opportunities

• Markets have been driven almost entirely by macro worries and ‘tail risks

• Eurozone crisis resolution: slow, chaotic with knock-on effects on the economy

• Greece has unsettled markets again, but sorting out the Eurozone favourably is still the most likely outcome:

- German economic self interest

- LTROs show meaningful policy response is probable

- Significant reform in the periphery

- Not all is bad in the European economy.

• Markets driven by fear reach extremes: ‘safe havens’ become dangerous, ‘risk’ becomes attractive

• Buying under-valued stocks is the best way to make money: time to look at out-of-favour stocks, sectors and countries

High vs. Low Quality Prospective P/E Relative

Source: BofA Merrill Lynch European Quantitative Strategy as at 15 May 2012. ‘High’ quality and ‘low’ quality refer to baskets of stocks scored on the basis of return on assets, return on capital, return on equity, 5 year return on equity and leverage. All factors are equal-weighted. Charts above show the relative performance and valuation of the top 25 and bottom 25 of the largest 250 stocks in Europe.Past performance is not a guide to future returns.

‘High quality’ stocks typically outperform over the long term, but ‘safety at any price’ has now led to unsustainable extremes of performance and valuation in Europe

• ECB under Draghi clearly more active as witnessed by 3 year unlimited LTRO operations, greater flexibility on collateral

• QE not allowed for the monetary financing of states, but is allowed as a monetary policy tool

• EFSF, ESM, SMP tools

• Greek € exit would raise spectre of ‘contagion’ in the periphery: expect significant policy response to counter it

• Pension reform – retirement at 67 years and linked to life expectancy

• Labour market – reform Article 18 to tackle gap between young and old, small and large companies

• Balanced budget – now voted into law

• Liberalisation – pharmacies, taxis, professional services

• Privatisation/competition – public tendering of contracts for electricity, gas, refuse collection

Spain

• Pension reform – retirement age increased to 67

• Labour market reform – reduced collective bargaining, increased flexibility to adapt to cycle, reduced bureaucracy to start-up businesses

• Budgetary & financial stability law – balanced budget enshrined in constitution, much tighter control over regional govt. finances

• Banking reforms – clean-up of real estate books, recapitalisation, consolidation

• Energy reform – regulatory certainty, decrease reliance on imports, lower prices

Spain: Not just a real estate crisis. Strong export growth (exports at 31% of GDP in Q4 2011), better unit labour cost trends, true unemployment levels well below the official rate of 25%, plus a fast-track programme to pay arrears owed to suppliers by regional governments worth 3% of GDP

What do we like? How are our funds positioned?

We are active “long-only” investors, who are driven by underlying valuations of stocks, not by labels like “value” or “growth”. Stock-picking is thus very important, but we also look at macro-economic factors when building portfolios

At present we are positioned for a slow growth environment, but the likely resolution of the Euro crisis means that we do not wish to be too defensively invested: defensive stocks can be too expensive, cyclical/financial stocks can be too cheap

Favoured areas at present include:

Defensives: pharmaceuticals, service industries with steady growth, selected telecoms, motorway stocks – not most consumer staples

Industrials: aerospace, transport, paper – not most capital goods

Financials: insurance, selected banks

Recent market dislocation has produced opportunities

• International energy company headquartered in Spain

• Expropriation of Argentinian subsidiary YPF hit the share this spring, but share price decline has substantially surpassed what would be justified by this alone

• Spanish listing and status as major component of IBEX35 has hit share

• Repsol (ex YPF) offers significantly faster growth than the industry average, yet the share price implies falling returns and no asset growth

• Position increased

• Core Benelux banking franchise is well-capitalised and well-funded with a relatively conservative asset mix

• Share has suffered disproportionately due to some exposure to peripheral bonds and ’risk off’ market mood

What do we like? UK consumer selectively becoming more interesting

N Brown plc

• Mail order/internet retailer of ‘outsize’ clothing

• Leading position in a growth market

• Large family holding results in prudent long term management

• Should benefit from pressure easing on UK households into 2012

• …and also from lower cotton prices

• Attractive valuation for a company with growth opportunities (PE 10x Yield 5%)

What are we avoiding? Cyclicals with margin and multiple risk

• Certain cyclical companies do not discount a downturn

• Relative performance at all time highs, growth expectations too ambitious and peak margins expected to remain

• We are zero weighted in names like LVMH and Atlas Copco
