OVERVIEW

 

Enterprise Diversified, Inc. is primarily focused on partnering with alternative asset managers, in addition to holding interests in companies associated with internet access, real estate, and home services.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slide 3

 

2019 NOTABLES

 

Enterprise Diversified is focused on creating long-term value for shareholders.

 

In 2019, Enterprise Diversified successfully transitioned the company to focus on the asset management business where we have maximum optionality and long-term upside potential.

 

Focused Compounding Capital Management, LLC, a new entity of which Willow Oak is a 10% owner, was formed. In addition to managing client capital through managed accounts, this joint venture launched a private investment fund, Focused Compounding Fund, LP, that began investing January 1, 2020.

 

Non-core assets were shed, and we shifted to an asset-light business in order to generate predictable cash flow from management fee shares, royalties, and other sources.

 

Approximately $6,427,000 of debt associated with the Mt Melrose portfolio was deconsolidated. In total, company debt decreased from $7,521,819 to $511,025.

 

Asset-heavy operations were divested, thereby simplifying public reporting requirements.

 

Costly distractions were eliminated in order to allow the company to focus squarely on Willow Oak Asset Management.

Focused Compounding

 

Investing through both a private partnership and managed accounts, Focused Compounding spends 99% of their time focused on the 1% of stocks every other fund ignores. Finding and investing in great off-the-radar businesses, Focused Compounding achieves uncorrelated returns from a portfolio of companies overlooked by other investors and the market.

Bonhoeffer Fund

 

The bedrock of the Bonhoeffer Fund is independent thinking combined with rigorous analysis, steeped in the principles of finance and corporate valuation. Applying concepts from developed markets that have been effective, the fund identifies and invests in companies that exhibit those qualities in disrupted industries, misunderstood sectors, and emerging markets.

 

Portfolio Manager Keith Smith is a director for Enterprise Diversified and an advisor for Willow Oak; he brings more than 20 years of experience as a valuation expert and a decade of personal investing experience during which he developed and executed the Bonhoeffer strategy, producing exceptional returns over that time.
