Fund OverviewThe Cyan C3G Fund operates as a wholesale unregistered managed investment scheme under a unit trust structure. The Fund primarily invests in ASX listed companies outside the ASX 100 and typically holds between 15-35 stocks.

Cyan C3G Fund is based on the investment philosophy which can be defined as a comprehensive, clear and considered process focused on delivering growth. These are identified through stringent filter criteria and a rigorous research process. The Manager uses a proprietary stock filter in order to eliminate a large proportion of investments due to both internal characteristics (such as gearing levels or cash flow) and external characteristics (such as exposure to commodity prices or customer concentration).

Typically, the Fund looks for businesses that are one or more of:
a) under researched,
b) fundamentally undervalued,
c) have a catalyst for re-rating.

The Manager seeks to achieve this investment outcome by actively managing a portfolio of Australian listed securities. When the opportunity to invest in suitable securities cannot be found, the manager may reduce the level of equities exposure and accumulate a defensive cash position. Whilst it is the company's intention, there is no guarantee that any distributions or returns will be declared, or that if declared, the amount of any returns will remain constant or increase over time. The Fund does not invest in derivatives and does not use debt to leverage the Fund's performance. However, companies in which the Fund invests may be leveraged.
Manager CommentsThe Cyan C3G Fund increased 1.90% in January, outperforming the Small Industrials Index that fell 3.8%, by 5.70%. Since inception, the Fund has an annualised return to 27.09% p.a., with a volatility of 11.49%. In the same time frame, the ASX 200 Accumulation Index has returned +4.52% p.a. with a higher volatility of 12.98%.

The positive Fund result in the month can be attributed to Bubs (BUB), Axsesstoday (AXL), Afterpay (AFY), and Money3 (MNY). Though the Fund had no major negative contributors, the two poorest performers were Abundant Produce (ABT) and Skydive the Beach (SKB). Many the portfolio's larger positions contain the investment team's preferred characteristics of high return on equity, strong cash conversion and below average dividend payout ratios, which positions them well to deliver ongoing earnings growth and share price appreciation.
