"The Fund returned +14% in Q2 2025, bringing YTD returns to under +1%. The manager remains highly constructive on key idiosyncratic positions including Sable Offshore, Burford Capital, and LifeCore."
Greenhaven Road Capital's investor letter for July 2025 reports a second-quarter return of approximately +14%, which brings year-to-date returns to just under +1%. Although the YTD returns are modest, the manager outlines a portfolio of high 'expected value' holdings with idiosyncratic drivers where success depends on company-level execution rather than macroeconomic factors such as interest rates or GDP growth. This setup is likened to waiting to open presents on Christmas morning. Major holdings discussed include Sable Offshore (SOC), which is working to reopen a California oilfield; Burford Capital (BUR), which holds a massive potential judgment settlement against Argentina; and LifeCore (LFCR), a contract drug manufacturer that stands to benefit significantly from potential domestic manufacturing tariffs. The fund's top five holdings also include Cellebrite (CLBT), KKR, and PAR Technology (PAR), which were detractors in the first half but have strong long-term outlooks or sale catalysts. Finally, the manager highlights a new asymmetric investment in AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) and mentions holding various short positions on indices and expensive consumer/food businesses.
