| 2025 Q4 | Jan 30, 2026 | Immersion Investment Partners | 0.0% | 0.0% | BELFB, BROS, CAVA, CELH, CMG, DPZ, MAMA, PAR, RDVT, SBUX, TGT, WING | AI, Food, growth, Restaurants, small caps, tech, Valuations | The letter argues that the unwind of AI-driven mega-cap excess has created significant valuation dislocations in high-quality small-cap companies unfairly punished by broad tech multiple compression. Immersion emphasizes differentiated valuation work, variant perception, and patience in concentrated positions where fundamentals, unit economics, and long-term growth remain intact despite weak sentiment.

SiTime Corp benefited from 115% growth in its data center segment reflecting surging demand from AI applications. The manager published a piece discussing AI as one of their top five secular trends for the near-to-medium term. The portfolio had strong performance from semiconductor investments including MACOM and SiTime. MACOM delivered strong Q4 results with 30% revenue growth, serving telecommunications, data center, defense, and industrial markets. SiTime revolutionized timing devices with MEMS-based silicon solutions and saw 45% growth driven by AI applications in data centers. Chime was highlighted as a leading online bank and top contributor in the Financial sector. The company's cost-effective, mobile-first, cloud-native infrastructure allows it to serve underbanked populations with free banking services. Revenue continues to increase above 30% annually with profit margins above 65%, and the manager believes Chime can triple its revenue per customer over the next five years. Guardant Health, a provider of blood-based diagnostic tests for cancer, was a significant contributor with strong Q3 results. The core oncology business grew revenues 30% with acceleration driven by innovative product enhancements. The company continues to lead the charge in converting oncology testing from tissue to blood, representing a major shift in cancer diagnostics. Flying taxis were mentioned as one of the speculative investment themes that drove 2025 returns, though the manager deliberately avoided these speculative companies. Drones were also identified as one of the top five secular trends for the near-to-medium term in the manager's recent publication. Robotics was identified as one of the manager's top five secular trends for the near-to-medium term. This represents an area of focus for finding category leaders before they become widely discovered, though specific robotics investments were not detailed in this letter. | View | |
