"Lyrical delivers strong YTD performance across US (+15.7% Net CS) and International (+30.6% Net) strategies, powered by an 'uncommon combination' of cheap valuations (12.6x forward P/E) and superior EPS growth (>10% CAGR)."
Lyrical Value Equity Strategies published their 3Q 2025 Investor Update, reporting total firm assets of $8.3 Billion. The flagship U.S. Value Equity - CS strategy generated +3.4% in 3Q25, bringing YTD returns to +15.7% (outperforming the S&P 500 by 90 bps and the S&P 500 Value by 600 bps). Internationally, the LAM International Value strategy excelled with +30.6% YTD, outperforming the MSCI EAFE index by 550 bps despite avoiding European banks. The manager emphasizes that the current valuation spread (market premium) between their portfolio and the S&P 500 is historically wide at 80%, presenting an exceptionally attractive risk-reward dynamic supported by stronger average EPS growth rates (>10% vs 6.4% for the S&P 500).
