"Mayar Capital underperforms the speculative CY 2025 index run, returning 14.1% net versus the MSCI World's 21.1%. The fund maintains a cautious posture, warning of AI sector 'circular financing' while rebalancing into durable, high-quality franchises on price weakness."
In the CY 2025 Letter to Partners, Managing Director Abdulaziz A. Alnaim reports a 14.1% net gain for Class A, underperforming the MSCI World's 21.1% increase. Alnaim frames this underperformance as a structural result of index concentration in a few highly valued US technology giants. The letter pays tribute to Warren Buffett upon his retirement on December 31, 2025, emphasizing the alignment of Mayar's investment style with Buffett's teachings on treating shares as fractional business ownership. Alnaim details risks in 'circular financing' loops within the AI boom and references the collapse of the valuation premium at Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy). The fund was highly active in portfolio rebalancing during the period, trimming various positions (e.g., Samsung, Alphabet, Nestlé) on valuation strength, and systematically adding to high-quality franchises on price weakness (e.g., Nike, Bright Horizons, Croda). The fund also established new positions in Booking Holdings, AsOne, and Taylor Wimpey. Mayar ended the year with $407 million in AUM.
