The first quarter of FY2015 ended reasonably well for EGP holders – we bested the market by 1.02%, which is an annualised 4.14%, more or less in the middle of the 3 – 5% outperformance that is our stated target.
Naturally, holders would generally prefer that outperformance to come alongside solid performance by the benchmark, but I am happy to get it any time, with the expectation that over a reasonable period the Australian market will give investors a good result and if we do our job right, EGP investors will do a little better than that.
As I set out in the e-mail to our holders that contained the report, there are a number of reasons to expect that the next 12 or 18 months have great potential for a number of our holdings. If that happens, we should be able to continue to generate outperformance over that period.
For non-members, please find the quarterly performance report here. As always it is also stored for posterity on the ‘Reporting’ tab – Tony Hansen 03/10/2014
