"EdgePoint's Q2 2025 commentary highlights how a strict focus on the margin of safety and capital structure priority protected investor capital in a Farfetch term loan, generating a 13.7% IRR despite the company's operational distress."
In the Q2 2025 credit commentary, Steven Lo outlines EdgePoint's strict focus on risk management, defining risk as the permanent loss of capital rather than market volatility. EdgePoint aims to protect capital through two key steps: sticking to a consistent bottom-up investment approach (identifying unrecognized positive business changes) and establishing a comfortable margin of safety. This margin of safety is illustrated by their investment in Farfetch Ltd.'s senior secured term loan in September 2022. Despite Farfetch subsequently experiencing poor inventory management and cash burn, the priority of the term loan in the capital structure and substantial asset coverage ensured that EdgePoint exited the investment with a 13.7% annualized IRR (outperforming the high-yield index's 7.6% return over the same period). Since inception, EdgePoint has completed over 700 credit investments with only eight defaults, six of which still achieved a positive return.
