Value Investment Style

1. Knowledge and expertise will be more important thandiversification.

It is more important to know a small number of companies intimately than to know verylittle about a lot of companies. Risk will increase the more diversified you become.

2. Intrinsic value: cash flow, after allowance for the capitalexpenditure to keep the business going will be the keymeasure for valuation.

The intrinsic value of a business – the true underlying value – will depend on its ability toproduce cash in the future less the cash it consumes. The intrinsic value will vary overtime as cash-flow certainty and the discount rate change.

3. Risk: standard deviation of returns or likelihood of loss? Value investors reject the idea that risk is the standard deviation of historic returns. Riskshould be about the probabilistic assessment of something bad happening.

4. The share market can wildly mis-price companies relativeto their intrinsic value. With time however prices willtend to correct.

In the short term, the share market is effectively a popularity contest. Share price willmove up and down depending on the number of buyers or sellers. In the long term, theshare price will reflect the economic fundamentals of the business. Over short periods oftime (even extending to several years) there can be a wide gap between the intrinsicvalue and that available at the stock exchange.

Over short periods oftime (even extending to several years) there can be a wide gap between the intrinsicvalue and that available at the stock exchange.

5. We think of investments in terms of part ownership of abusiness.

Shares are a fractional ownership of a business – they are a lot more than a stockcertificate, a CHESS statement, or a ‘blip’ on a screen.

6. “Mr Market” should be your friend. Bi-polar “Mr Market” provides you buy and sell prices every day – sometimes high andsometimes low. You should exploit his moods - buy when he is down and sell when he ishigh. DMX Asset Management will have a long term investment horizon so this theme isused as a guide in “bear” and “bull” markets.

7. Margin of safety. The idea is you want to have a sufficiently large gap between the intrinsic value and thecurrent share price to make the investment attractive and to allow for any inaccuracies inthe assessment of the intrinsic value.

Value Investment Style

8. Governance. Alignment of rewards and treating shareholders as partners.

9. Investing or value investing. Investing should be about a considered appraisal of a business/investment case againstall known facts with the expectation that on average a superior return can be achieved.This contrasts with speculation which is short term and more akin to gambling.

10. Value versus growth. Value investing can be applied to both low and high growth businesses. The key is theintrinsic value compared to the current share price – the margin of safety.

11. The distinction between price, book value and intrinsicvalue.

Price is the current share price. The book value (sometimes called the equity value) isthe value of the assets minus liabilities as reported in the accounts expressed on a pershare basis. The intrinsic value is the true underlying worth of the business.

11

12. Macroeconomic factors. These are very hard to forecast accurately and, given the value investing approach isover the long term, frequently of only limited relevance.

13. Gold and other assets that will never produce anything. Non income producing assets have no value in the value investing framework.

14. Family companies. Very often family companies have performed well because decisions are frequentlymade within a longer period and, as the business will be the major part of the wealth ofthe family, they will typically have a higher level of engagement than a salariedemployee will.

Sources of Competitive Advantage

We believe competitive advantage stems from five sources:

•Network effects. This occurs where the value of the product increases as more people have or use the product. Agood example of this would be the internet. If you and another person were the only people on the internet it wouldbe far less value to you than if many people use the internet. The more people that use the internet the morevaluable it is for other people to join and the more people that join the more valuable it is to join. It becomes avirtuous circle. Examples of this would include telecommunications, credit cards, and credit rating services.

•Cost advantages. This includes scale in distribution (such as railways or grocery retailing) and manufacturing (forinstance there is only one incandescent light globe manufacturer left in the world). It will also include companieswhose costs are structurally lower than competitors (for instance the Escondida mine jointly owned by BHP and RioTinto has the highest concentration of copper and lowest strip ratio of any sizeable copper mine in the world).

•Intangible assets. This will include factors such as brands, patents, licences and government concessions, andeven corporate culture.

•Switching costs. For instance it is difficult and time consuming to change the bank or telephone company you use.In the corporate environment it can be expensive and risky to relocate plant and equipment or transition from one ITsystem to another.

•Scale efficiencies. This would include natural monopolies (airports, or water or electrical utilities, for instance),niche markets, and rational oligopolies (such as the Australian banking market).
