"L1 Capital posted a 9.8% return for 2025, navigating a highly concentrated market by exploiting valuation anomalies in 'perceived AI losers' while remaining fully invested in high-quality businesses exposed to resilient affluent consumer trends."
In its Q4 2025 report, L1 Capital International outlines a 2.2% net return for the quarter (vs 2.5% for the benchmark) and a 9.8% net return for the full calendar year 2025. The manager discusses the rise of a K-shaped economy, where affluent consumers thrive while lower-income demographics face severe financial pressure. They address the market's over-simplified division of companies into AI winners and losers, identifying high-quality software and information services incumbents (like Salesforce, Intuit, and LSEG) as mispriced opportunities. Significant portfolio adjustments included initiating positions in Salesforce and LSEG, expanding Jacobs Solutions, and trimming or fully exiting positions in AerCap, HCA Healthcare, and CES Energy Solutions for valuation and risk management.
