Clarity of tangible objectives – identify a select number of high-conviction, company-specific opportunities that will deliver outsized returns over the next 1-3 years.____________________________________________________________________________________________Understand the landscape – years of on-site company visits, ongoing engagement with industry contacts, analysis and industry screens.____________________________________________________________________________________________I. Identify the opportunity: Source ideas in the process of ongoing industry due diligence and via industry researchII. Fundamental analysis – three primary stages

1. Conduct long-term (5+ years) historical analysis of the company’s fundamental drivers and valuation• Creating a mosaic to thoroughly understand, evaluate and compare the company to its industry

2. Evaluate management, strategy and execution• Do they do what they say they do? Was their success or failure because of or in spite of themselves? What is their view

of their industry and strategy going forward in light of our view of their industry and strategy going forward?3. Determine intrinsic value by applying some primary valuation measures

• Discounted cash flow, price relative to normalized earnings power, and private market valueIII. Present analysis to the entire investment team for review

• Approved ideas considered for inclusion in portfolio• Portfolio constructed at stock-specific level with best risk-adjusted ideas that are consistent with our macro call

IV. Risk controls embedded at stock level and portfolio level • Chief Investment Officer works with portfolio manager to identify the hedges we can utilize to remove market risk.

Systematic Completion of transaction

Risk Management Review Position size, liquidity, industry concentration

Liquidity and adherence to established stop losses

Detailed due diligence

Overall, portfolios have had a long bias since inception. When combined with extreme liquidity and short trading, volatility is reduced while allowing markets to stabilize.

How do we hedge/manage risk?

• Liquidity – 90% of portfolio can be converted to cash in three days– very few private investments and rarely brokered deals

• Listed options – puts, put spreads• Short selling – at all times and in all market conditions• Macro hedges – index futures both in Canada and the U.S.• Commodity hedges – short underlying commodity• ETFs and structured products• Sell discipline – intrinsic value, thesis changed, make room for new/better idea,

price drops create review or stop loss

CI Canadian Small/Mid Cap Fund

Became sub-advisor (with Picton Mahoney) January 1, 2013

Total Return of 12.22% Small and mid-cap mandate Invests in companies with a market capitalization of

less than $5 billion Best long ideas from Partners Fund that fits the

mandate Does not look like the index or the benchmark Able to be materially overweight sectors Able to be completely zero weighting in sectors Able to include some U.S. equities

Red Sky Canadian Equity Corporate Class

Launched January 1, 2013 AUM approximately $10 million In 2013, return was 27.20% compared to 12.99% for TSX TR –

top-quartile fund Best long ideas from Partners Fund No hedging other than liquidity and possible elevated levels of

cash (up to 40%) Can short and use options when necessary

Both of these funds are managed like a hedge fund and will look to generate absolute returns in all markets. Due to a limitation on shorting, it will not have the same volatility as the Partners funds.
