Prosper Stars & Stripes Christopher E. Hillary | “One theme that has had success is the ongoing pressure caused by the investment boom in AI crowding out spending in other areas. We have shorted Universal Display Corp (OLED), Dolby Laboratories (DLB), and Logitech International (LOGI) on this theme. We believe cost pressures on technology components such as DRAM to result in higher prices for consumer electronics. This would have a significant impact on back-to-school and holiday spending, the key periods for these companies' end markets. We expect the forecasts that these companies are providing at this time of the year to prove optimistic, as tech cost inflation is unusual. Further, we believe the so-called K-shaped economy, where consumers have felt the pressure of rising costs of living, will continue to squeeze discretionary purchases like these. Rising prices make it nearly impossible to use discounts to stimulate sales, compounding the pressure.” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Aug 18, 2026 | View Pitch |
Aristotle/Saul Global Equity Fund Portfolio Manager | “We first invested in Dolby Laboratories (Dolby), the creator and licensor of audio and imaging technologies, in the first quarter of 2022. We were attracted to Dolby's asset-light licensing model, trusted brand, strong intellectual property portfolio and deep relationships with both content creators and device makers. We believed Dolby would benefit from the growing demand for more immersive entertainment experiences, allowing the company to extend its technology into new use cases. During our ownership, Dolby executed well in several respects: increasing adoption across content and devices, expanding into newer end markets such as autos and gaming, adding to its patent portfolio and maintaining the high-margin, cash-generative financial profile that first attracted us. However, adoption has not translated into the level of earnings growth we initially expected. As a result, while we continue to view Dolby as a high-quality franchise and will monitor its monetization efforts, we believe the remaining catalysts lack the visibility and timing we require, and we exited the position.” | BULL | Q2 2026 Aug 10, 2026 | View Pitch |
