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 rose +9.00% in April, taking annualised performance since inception in August 2014 to +11.53% versus the ASX200 Accumulation Index's +4.13%. Cyan expect the volatility to continue for the foreseeable future as investors' focus shifts to the breadth and depth of the economic impact of COVID-19.

The Fund was particularly active in February and March as the spread and impact of the virus emerged. During that period Cyan repositioned the portfolio to both avoid significant losses and take advantage of the buying opportunity.

Top performers in April included Vita Group, Carbonxt Group, Raiz, Quickfee and Jumbo Interactive. Only 3 positions delivered a minor negative return with none of them being material detractors to performance.

Cyan believe the fund is well diversified and exposed to fundamentally strong businesses that offer material upside over time.
