Of course, our past performance does not guarantee any future results. Our "Investment Philosophy & Approach" is of utmost importance to understanding an investment opportunity with us. In short, this process generally involves 5 pillars: 1) we conduct "quantitative" analysis on prospective investments using FDIC Call Report data as well as other publicly available information on the banking companies we are analyzing; 2) we perform our own "qualitative" due diligence, using written materials and personal meetings with management of the financial institutions we are studying, in an effort to understand the "culture" of the organizations. We are looking for a specific culture at the banks in which we invest that can best be described as a "balanced culture". We believe our approach to this qualitative analysis is unique among investment managers and it is a critical component of our investment decision; 3) we undertake demographic analysis of the markets in which the banking companies we are examining operate; 4) we review current valuation metrics of all prospective investments - looking for the best values available; and 5) we assess management`s openness to a possible change of control.
