Laketon Investment Management is a bottom-up, large-cap, growth manager. With an emphasis on concentrated equity portfolios, the firm seeks out high-quality companies with strong growth prospects by applying a bottom-up investment approach that includes both quantitative and qualitative inputs. Laketon's active investment style focuses on high quality Canadian equities and is designed to create the appropriate balance between positive return generation in up markets and capital preservation in down markets. The firm's investment mandates tend to hold companies with these characteristics: large-cap bias; sustainable profitability; proven management teams; attractive history of return on capital; and strong free cash flow. Portfolios are well-diversified and are fully invested in a concentrated portfolio of 30 to 45 holdings. Laketon employs a responsive sell discipline that incorporates both tactical and fundamental buy/sell strategies.
