"Deploying capital into out-of-favor quality giants like ASML, Alphabet, and Synopsys, while standing firmly behind a hard-hit top holding, PAR Technology."
Executive Summary
Bristlemoon Global Fund returned 5.0% for the September 2025 quarter (net of fees). The manager highlights their core philosophy of focusing on 'underappreciated quality' opportunities where market skepticism has depressed entry valuations. The letter details why recent additions ASML, Alphabet (GOOGL), and Synopsys (SNPS) were purchased at deep discounts despite solid long-term fundamentals. Additionally, the manager reviews their top-five holding PAR Technology (PAR), which suffered a 44% drawdown over short-term ARR growth guidance cuts. They argue that the market overreacted to temporary macroeconomic delays and strategic rollout pauses, and they maintain high conviction in PAR's asymmetric upside potential, notably through its pursuit of massive tier-1 contracts and potential private equity interest.
