Value Investment Principals [VIP] has a 12-year track record, starting in 2009, focusing on unique under-covered stocks. Our typical ideas have zero/limited research coverage, “deep-value”, growth, high cash and FCF [Free Cash Flow]. We search for High Dividend Yields to appeal to retail clients, creating a steady source of income. We have a strong track record of performance for both large institutional and High Net-Worth Individuals [HNIs].Approximately 2/3 of our ideas have been in growth industries (with earnings growth of more than 2x the GDP growth rate). Our deep-value ideas all have multiple catalysts that are likely to unfold over the next 6-12 months to unlock value. We offer 10+ page research reports with detailed IS/BS/CF forecasts, rigorous ratio analysis and Discounted Cash Flow valuations alongside price targets on all recommendations. Our team consists of 3 highly skilled analysts with Masters degrees and extensive industry experience. Bottom-line, all of our ideas have been ignored by Wall Street analysts, and this creates opportunity in undervalued, under followed stocks with high dividend yields and growth.Sandy Mehta, CFA, our founder and Director, has over 30-years’ experience as a PM of a 5-Star award-winning small-cap fund as well as a flagship $15 billion Global Equity Fund. Sandy also founded Acumen Capital Management in 2004, and incubated a global long-short $200 million Hedge Fund. In 2015, he founded equity research firm Evaluate Research, his third entrepreneurial venture in global financial services, focusing on unfollowed equities. He has an MBA degree [Director’s List Honors] from the Wharton School, and a Master of International Management [with Honors] from the American Graduate School of International Management. He attained his CFA at the age of 25.
