"Montaka's June 2025 letter reinforces its focus on high-quality companies with self-reinforcing 'flywheel' competitive advantages, highlighting their purchase of KKR during market volatility and providing an in-depth bullish thesis on Floor & Decor."
Executive Summary
In the June 2025 Quarterly Letter, Montaka Global Investments highlights its commitment to long-term compounding through a highly concentrated, low-turnover portfolio of "advantaged" global businesses. Portfolio managers Andrew Macken and Chris Demasi emphasize the "flywheel" concept—a self-reinforcing dynamic where a company shares economic benefits with its customers, resulting in enhanced customer adoption, increased market scale, and stronger competitive moats. Despite a highly volatile quarter driven by geopolitical events and tariff announcements (such as Trump's 'Liberation Day' policy), Montaka capitalizes on market fluctuations to increase key positions, notably adding to alternative asset manager KKR (KKR) during a major price dip. The managers express strong conviction in their top holdings, which constitute 76% of the portfolio, and share that the fund's 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year net performance annualized metrics are tracking at or above 20%. The letter also includes a comprehensive case study of Floor & Decor (FND), outlining how its specialized model and direct sourcing create massive competitive advantages over fragmented local independent retailers. Montaka argues FND is significantly undervalued at an $8 billion market cap, with a clear path to $1 billion in annual operating profit by 2030.
