"REQ Capital's funds delivered positive performance in H1 2025, driven by strong fundamentals in decentralized, acquisition-driven compounders like its new largest holding, Röko AB."
REQ Capital's Half Year Investment Report for July 2025 details the performance and strategic actions of its funds during the first half of 2025. REQ Global Compounders achieved a 5% return, while REQ Nordic Compounders rose 6%. Both funds are managed under an ultra-long-term, unconstrained philosophy focused on acquisition-driven compounders (ADCs)—businesses with decentralized cultures and strong reinvestment engines that grow by acquiring niche private companies. A key event during the period was the fund's cornerstone investment in the IPO of Röko AB, a Swedish sector-agnostic acquirer that quickly became the largest holding at 9% of the portfolio. Other significant developments included portfolio company DCC selling its healthcare division to focus on energy, and Topicus executing major transactions such as its acquisition of a stake in Asseco Poland. Additionally, the fund increased its position in Lumine Group, lifting total exposure to the broader Constellation family to nearly 20%. The report also details 'the cold start problem,' advising investors that mature ADCs with established capital allocation playbooks are far lower-risk, more resilient compounders compared to newer, unproven competitors that present optical cheapness but carry high execution risk.
