"Longleaf Partners International Fund delivered a strong 14.89% return in Q2, outperforming its benchmark by capturing a performance reversal driven by solid company fundamentals. The manager initiated three new value positions and exited Naver due to long-term AI-related search disruption risks."
In 2Q25, the Longleaf Partners International Fund returned +14.89%, outperforming the FTSE Developed ex North America Index, which returned +12.63%. The quarter marked a fundamental performance reversal from Q1 as several key 'coiled spring' holdings uncoiled. Top contributors in the quarter included Glanbia, Eurofins, Canal+, Melco Resorts, and Entain, with no material detractors reported. Portfolio activity was robust: the fund initiated three new positions (Koninklijke Philips, Treasury Wine Estates, and Medley) and exited two (Naver and Louis Hachette). Despite the broader market trading at all-time highs, the manager remains constructive and sees significant opportunity in the portfolio, which currently trades at an attractive price-to-value ratio in the high-60s%.
