| 2025 Q4 | Jan 12, 2026 | REQ Global Compounders | 0.0% | 0.0% | ADDTECH-B.ST, APH, BERG-B.ST, BRO, CSU.TO, DPLM.L, GREEN.ST, HEI, HLMA.L, IMCD.AS, INDU-A.ST, JDG.L, LAGR-B.ST, LIFCO-B.ST, LMN.TO, MOMENT.ST, NCAB.ST, NIBE-B.ST, ROKO.ST, ROP, TOI.TO | Acquisitions, AI, Capital Allocation, compounders, Decentralized, long-term, Quality, software | AI narrative has negatively impacted vertical-market software companies, representing 20% of Global fund exposure. Management believes AI poses opportunities rather than uniform threats to VMS, particularly for mission-critical systems with high switching costs. They view trusted incumbents as better positioned to deploy AI effectively than new entrants. Portfolio companies completed 145 acquisitions in 2025, with 70% outside Nordic countries. Companies maintain disciplined approach to M&A with average acquired sales of EUR 12m. Acquisition-driven compounders demonstrate resilience through dual growth engines of organic growth and acquisitions. AI infrastructure build-out has been a clear tailwind for companies exposed to data center expansion. Halma and Diploma benefited from demand for compute, power, cooling, and electrical systems. Amphenol saw robust demand as data-center architectures evolve to support higher power densities. Tariff and trade-related uncertainty under Trump administration affected portfolio companies including IMCD and Judges Scientific. IMCD experienced macroeconomic pressure from tariffs, while policy uncertainty created headwinds for university funding affecting Judges Scientific. | CSU CN BRO JDG LN |
