Values Value 23

Asset Allocation Principals

• Asset allocation funds are build from the bottom up

and are driven primarily by Equity stock selection

Shares have to give the targeted return i.e. CPI

plus 4% in case of Balanced Fund and CPI plus

5% in the case of Flexible Fund

Down side protection and capital preservation is

key

We do not target asset allocation %

Property compete with Fixed interest

Page 24: Truffle Asset Management

Values Value 24

Asset Allocation Principals

The current positioning in our Asset Allocation

funds are driven by the relative lack of

opportunities in the Equity stock selection

Once Equity and property have been allocated –

left to allocate to Fixed Income

Has to be liquid, low duration, readily available to

deploy in the Equity Market

Property stocks - looking attractive

• Attractive distribution yields

• Low distribution forecast risk

• Leverage is up over the last 5 years but….

• Most companies have hedged the majority of their debt

• Many companies have expanded offshore offering further

portfolio diversification

• Domestic stock risks

• Major Rand weakness - likely in medium term

• Rise in bond yields - likely in medium term

• Offshore stock risks

• Rise in global interest rates - looks unlikely

SteinhoffBecoming a European heavyweight

• Steinhoff is a European furniture retailer in the value segment of

the market:

Trades on a forward EY of 9% and a DY of 3.2%.

Cost savings and efficiencies will drive growth rather than

growing the market.

Their scale and vertically integrated model will help them in

the consolidation of the market

Expect share buybacks to optimise capital structure &

minimize dilution from rights issue

Higher ROIC has helped drive the rerating

The offshore listing in will help realise more value from an

improved rating.

British American TobaccoStable earnings growth in Sterling

• British American Tobacco (BTI) is one of our largest

overweights in the portfolio:

BTI is a Rand Hedge with very predictable earnings with

low volatility.

BTI currently trades on a forward PE of 15x and DY of 4.6%.

Expect earnings to grow at 7- 8% in Sterling plus Rand

depreciation of 4% p.a. = 11- 12% EPS growth in Rands.

Despite regulatory risks we still like the stock as it is

offering a 16% return before rating changes.

Core holding in the portfolio.

Current Market View - Summary

• We are finding value in selective cyclical, property, banking and

insurance stocks.

• Given our size we continue to find attractively valued companies

in the small and mid cap universe eg. Hulamin, Sephaku,

Metair, Super Group and Grand Parade Investments

• Remain at maximum offshore exposure with long term concerns

over the Rand

• Offshore equities offer significantly better value than domestic

equities

• Overall equities are not cheap but valuations are being supported

by low interest rates both locally and globally
