Alluvium Global Fund Stuart Pearce, Alexis Delloye | “The share price of Linamar, the industrial manufacturer, was up 17.0%, but not without volatility. On 15 April the Linamar share price fell 12.6% as the market suddenly seemed convinced that US tariff changes (implemented a few days earlier) would have a devastating effect on its business. After studying the tariff changes, and considering management's reassurance (that the effect would be marginal - to the extent that it maintained its 2026 outlook), we bought some shares the day after. Not long after it rebounded and accounted for more than 5% of the Fund. We are not usually traders, but a combination of price vs value analysis, and regulatory requirements led us to sell some of our holding, and it now represents 4.2% of the Fund.” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Jul 29, 2026 | View Pitch |
Forager International Shares Fund Steve Johnson | “Linamar Corporation (TSX:LNR) started the financial year with few friends. Linamar's most important business is making parts to go into new cars, right around the world but with a clear bent towards North American-made vehicles. And Donald Trump was ruining the whole industry with his tariff plans, was he not? Fast forward 12 months, the North American auto industry is doing pretty well, insulated from the fierce Chinese competition that's killing automakers in Europe, Japan and Korea. The key question mark from the tariff tantrum—would Canadian parts producers be hit with tariffs or sheltered within the North American ecosystem—has been answered, happily. Linamar is pumping out record profits from its automotive business, more than offsetting a more difficult environment for its industrial business. The stock is up 55% over the year, adding 1.5% to Fund returns. Even at the current share price, it's still cheap.” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Jul 15, 2026 | View Pitch |
Alluvium Global Fund Stuart Pearce, Alexis Delloye | “Linamar has been severely impacted by newly announced US tariffs due to its reliance on exporting components to the US from its Canadian base. While achieving its aggressive double-digit growth guidance is now uncertain, the stock's distressed valuation and underlying cash generation support keeping the position.” | BULL | Q1 2025 Mar 1, 2025 | View Pitch |
