"Despite Q4 2025 underperformance from its software overweight, Voss is maintaining its software conviction while initiating a new core long in Choice Hotels (CHH) to play a significant balance-sheet capital-unlock catalyst."
Voss Capital's Q4 2025 investor letter outlines a net return of -2.1% for the Voss Value Fund, LP, underperforming benchmarks due to its overweight position in software. The fund managers argue that the market has indiscriminately sold off software stocks due to existential AI fears (e.g., catalyzed by Claude Code), creating a significant valuation disconnect for deeply-moated incumbents like Flywire (FLYW), Cellebrite (CLBT), and PAR Technology (PAR). Voss argues these firms have irreplaceable payment rails, slow-moving government procurement relationships, or high switching costs that protect them from AI-native entrants. Additionally, Voss initiated a new 5.3% core long position in Choice Hotels (CHH), an asset-light hotel franchisor trading at a bottom 2.5% historical valuation multiple (10.7x EBITDA). Voss expects a massive cash unlock (~$700M) as CHH completes and sells off proprietary hotel developments, providing a direct catalyst for share buybacks or M&A.
