Executive Summary
Alluvial Fund reported a strong 15.5% return for Q3 2025 (33.6% YTD). Dave Waters highlights the extreme valuation gap between speculative technology stocks and durable asset-backed companies. Core holdings continue to unlock value: Zegona Communications is successfully executing on fiber JV sales (though being trimmed to manage concentration risk), FitLife Brands acquired Irwin Naturals out of bankruptcy, and NewPrinces plans to list its stake in Princes. Out-of-favor positions such as Net Lease Office Properties and Unidata SpA remain deeply undervalued but supported by strong assets. The fund added to its position in helicopter operator PHI Group and initiated a new post-bankruptcy energy engineering stake.
