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 closed out the financial year on a strong note, rising 2.4% in June and taking the return for the year to 11.49% and over 25% p.a. since inception in July 2014.

Performance was driven by a number of positions including Medical imaging services provider, Capitol Health which rose 38% in June following the the new management team's capital raising to pay down debt, and the sale of its NSW assets.

Adding to this a newer holding, MSL Solutions rose 34% in June, while the Fund's investment in Blue Sky Funds continued to provide solid gains as it hit new highs on the back of new institutional mandate wins.

Finally the IPO of Kelly Group, a Sydney based consolidator of smaller accounting firms, made a sound market debut almost 30% above its $1.00 issue price. Despite this gain the Manager added to the initial position as the company continued its rise, ending the month at $1.42, providing a healthy gain for the Fund's investors.
