INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
THREE CORE BELIEFS GUIDE THE ENTREPRENEURSHARES INVESTMENT PROCESS
ENTREPRENEURIAL LEADERS CREATE FUNDAMENTAL VALUE
• Visionary entrepreneurial leaders have economic and non-economic incentives to create value • These leaders see far horizons and are resilient in tough times • Their organizations keep costs lean, debt levels manageable, and expansion projects within reach
ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPANIES OUTPERFORM THE COMPETITION
• Our research asserts that entrepreneurially run companies achieve higher long-run growth rates • Those companies emphasize motivated and transparent leadership and prioritize shareholders • They focus on sustainable organic growth and operational efficiency
ENTREPRENEURIAL BEHAVIOR TRANSLATES INTO SHAREHOLDER VALUE
• This dynamic drives earnings growth, stock price appreciation, and above average employment growth
