Morningstar’s Take
by Kevin McDevitt, CFA 12-23-14
Osterweis’ results no longer justify a Morningstar
Analyst Rating of Silver. This fund has outperformed
going back to its 1993 inception under John Osterweis,
but that hasn’t been the case since multiple
comanagers joined the fund over the years. Since the
move to comanagers in June 2006, the fund’s 7.3%
annualized return through Dec. 17, 2014, lags the
Russell Midcap Index’s 8.9% gain by 1.6 percentage
points. This stretch encapsulates a full market cycle,
including a deep bear market followed by a long rally.
During that time, the fund’s calendar-year return has
landed in the mid-blend Morningstar Category’s top
half only once, in 2008.
As the fund’s strong 2008 showing suggests, it’s
generally been less volatile than most peers. But this
has owed more to Osterweis’ building cash at the right
times rather than holding defensive stocks. That is,
counting on the team to increase its cash stake at the
right time is potentially less reliable than maintaining a
conservative portfolio. True, the team tends to invest in
companies with competitive advantages, which shows
in the latest portfolio. Roughly half the current
holdings are rated by Morningstar analysts and all
have either a Wide or Narrow Economic Moat Rating.
However, this is offset to some extent by the
portfolio’s 48.3% average debt/capital ratio, which is
among the category’s 10 highest.
Overhanging the fund’s results is John Osterweis’
plan to step down as CIO in 2017, when he will be 75.
The remaining team is unproven on its own, as all of
the fund’s outperformance since inception came when
Osterweis was the sole manager. Added to this, three
comanagers have left the firm over the past three
years. The team has high hopes for Nael Fakhry, who
took departing comanager Zach Perry’s place in May,
but he’s an unknown quantity at this point.
The team has time to turn things around before
Osterweis steps down. Its process is largely the same
one Osterweis used to generate outperformance in the
first half of the fund’s history. Disappointing results
since 2006 and uncertainty surrounding the team lead
to a Bronze Morningstar Analyst Rating.
