Executive Summary
In the 4Q25 investor letter, Long Cast Advisers reports a flat return for the year (YTD 0%) and a 1% gain for the quarter. Since inception in 2015, the fund has returned 271% net of fees (14% CAGR). Principal Avram Fisher details key portfolio updates: largest quarterly purchases included PDEX, CCRN, and NRC. Notably, the fund is revisiting CCRN due to its strong balance sheet and the return of its founder as CEO. NRC was initiated as a new position, driven by positive catalysts like a new CEO from Amazon and improving deferred revenues. The fund fully exited CCRD due to its acquisition and rolled the proceeds into EEFT, while also selling RELL. The manager reiterates conviction in other top holdings like MTRX, RSSS, and PESI, remaining committed to highly concentrated, value-oriented micro-cap investing.
