Quick Take
"Aoris underperformed in 2025 due to a widening valuation gap despite strong underlying portfolio earnings. The manager is highly constructive, viewing the 25% average discount as a coiled spring poised to drive attractive multi-year future returns."
Executive Summary
In 2025, Aoris's Class A (Unhedged) fund returned 4.0%, underperforming its benchmark (13.7%) due to a widening gap between company fundamentals and lagging share prices. Intrinsic values of owned businesses grew by an estimated 13%, but the valuation gap detracted 5% from returns. Top performers included Amphenol (+82%), Halma (+37%), and L'Oréal (+15%). The fund exited two mistake positions: Atlas Copco and Copart. Underperforming positions Accenture and RELX were held based on the strong belief that they are mischaracterized as 'AI losers'. In 2025, Aoris executed four sales (MSCI, Fastenal, Atlas Copco, Copart) and added four new positions (Grainger, Jack Henry, IHG, SAP). Amazon was added to the reserve list. Heading into 2026, the portfolio is highly constructive due to an average valuation gap of 25%, representing a historic investment opportunity.
