INVESTMENT COMMITTEE REVIEW
Investment Philosophy
We believe that scale is not a driver but an outcome of excellence in our work. Our thematic investment styles are designed around nicheinvestment opportunities that exist in the Indian capital markets. Usually such specialties offer limited scope for scale-up in terms of the capitalwe can deploy effectively. The focus is always upon discovering and taking advantage of an insight that can provide the edge, and thenadding layers of research and due diligence to construct a portfolio. The common foundation of knowledge, work culture and networksunderpin all our investment strategies, providing us the benefit of scale.
Unifi is essentially a value investor in growth businesses. We place Value first but always also demand growth potential in a business we own.We believe that stock performance, particularly in mid and small firms, needs a catalyst; and often the best catalyst is an attractive pricecombined with Growth.
Unifi believes that both micro (firm level) and macro risks are critical in determining outcomes. We carefully evaluate the fundamentals of eachbusiness that we own, and in addition ask ourselves if the prevailing and expected conditions in the economy will act for or against ourinterest. At times, while making longer term investments, we consciously trade off adverse macro conditions for terrific entry valuations.
Defining what Value, Risk and Consistency in returns mean to us.Value investing is easy to understand but hard to practice. Our job is to buy something for less than it is at least worth and generally hold on(for years) till we can sell at a price above its fair value.
Risk is typically measured by the volatility of returns generated by an asset. While this makes great sense, we include another dimension toit, and believe that the greatest risk emanates from the probability of an asset’s permanent diminution of value i.e. loss of invested capital.While earning superior returns relative to benchmark is important, it is far more important to earn superior return on each unit of risk that weare exposed.
Consistency of returns relative to our initial objective (in certain strategies we allow ourselves considerable latitude to deviate in order tooutperform eventually) as well as the benchmark is an important measure of performance. We aim to consistently generate top quartileperformance.
Our People. The bedrock of our firm’s ethos is best represented by our commitment to Accountability and Continuity, both internal andexternal. We attract people who are passionate and give them time and opportunity to succeed. We maintain a tight code of conduct and havezero tolerance for poor integrity or quality.
Adhere to the clients’ mandate. Typically, our clients are smart and successful individuals. The most important investment decision is the onemade by our client (with our RM’s careful advice) at the outset in choosing the asset class and the risk level. As his investment manager Unifi iscommitted to stick diligently to the client’s mandate and deliver the best possible outcome while remaining vigilant on the underlying risks.

Fund Structure
Event Arbitrage Fund
Objective
Generate stable absolute returns that are consistently superior to fixed income instruments by identification and quick execution of low risk ”
moderate gain event arbitrage opportunities arising in the equity markets from time to time. The prime focus is to achieve the desired returns by
building a portfolio with relatively low volatility than the benchmark indices to ensure capital preservation across market cycles.
Strategy
Invest in a basket of stocks with underlying arbitrage opportunities driven by corporate events like mergers, acquisition, initial public offers, buyback
of shares, regulation triggered / voluntary open offers made to the public by controlling shareholders etc. Typically, arbitrage opportunities emerge in
such cases due to the perceived discount in the pre-event market price in relation to the open offer / post-event price, occurring largely due to
asymmetric information distribution, difference in investment objectives and expectation amongst investors. Temporary inefficiencies in the market
providing access to robust companies with exceptionally high dividend yields and moderate capital gain opportunities are also circumspectly
considered.
Portfolio Structure
Investments are balanced among the opportunities that are selected. Typically, exposure to any event will usually be not less than 2.5% and not more
than 25% of a portfolio. Also, exposure to an event is restricted to 10% of its potential opportunity/offer size. Investment allocation towards selected
opportunities is gradually increased over a period of time in line with our improved understanding of the event and also to mitigate the impact cost of
build-up. Sufficient liquidity in the underlying stock, credible management and the risk-reward balance are key requirements for any opportunity.
Event specific hedging / leverage are also selectively considered to lock-in gains / generate higher returns.

Delisting Fund*
Objective
Several multinational companies which listed their Indian subsidiaries during the 1970s to comply with the then GOI rules have been seeking to delist.
The SEBI (Delisting of Equity Shares Regulation of 2009) brought in much greater clarity in the delisting process and effectively shifted the balance of
power in favor of minority share holders.
The Delisting Fund sought to achieve attractive absolute rate of return by investing in companies that have a high likelihood of delisting. The price
discovered in the delisting process invariably offered a substantial premium over the then prevailing market price.
Strategy
The fund built a portfolio of 10-12 companies from an universe of about 40, that have a high probability of delisting, without compromising on the
fundamentals and valuations. We ran several filters that examined their technology/product and market position versus the sector, financial
strength, return ratios, management’s track record and valuations.
Portfolio Structure
The fund invested into a diversified portfolio of 5-10 companies. Not more than 40% was invested in one sector and single stock investment was
capped at 20% of the portfolio. Market capitalization of 100Cr was considered as a minimum threshold limit for stock selection. Most, if not all of the
exits, were through the market to derive maximum tax advantage. Use of Derivates was provisioned to hedge the portfolio without exposing the fund
to any leverage.
* The fund was conceptualized and launched in 2009 as a 18-24 month closed ended structure. Partial redemption was made at the end of 12 months and 100% proceeds were returned to investors in March 2011.

Monthly Returns Unifi BSE 500
Insider Shadow Fund
Objective
Generate superior risk adjusted returns, in relation to the broad market, by investing in fundamentally sound companies where the promoters’ have
acquired additional shares at market prices or companies that have repurchased their own shares. Typically, such an action by a company or a
controlling shareholder demonstrates their conviction that the company’s growth prospects or inherent value has not been captured in its stock price
at that point.
Strategy
The strategy is to create and update (on a daily basis), a universe of companies where the promoter is increasing his stake -At market prices either
through creeping acquisitions or buyback route, where complete disclosures of stock purchases have been made to the exchanges, and that seem to be
motivated either by an undervalued stock price or an impending improvement in business prospects that are still to be reflected in the market price
From this universe the fund cherry picks for investment, firms using a bottom-up fundamental evaluation validated by the fund manager having a
positive view of the sector in which the firm operates. An emphasis is placed on companies whose promoters have increased their stake in the recent
past & where the current market price is trading a discount or at an acceptable premium to the price at which the promoter increased his stake. The
extent of financial outlay by the promoter or company has to be meaningful in relation to the size of the firm.
Portfolio Structure
The fund intends to keep investments balanced among companies, but may significantly vary exposure to companies as situations evolve.
Typically, the fund will hold about 20 positions ranging from 2.5% to 10% of the portfolio, with a median of 5%.

Sector Trends- Large Cap Fund
Background
History emphasizes that only a few sectors drive market performances at any given point in time. Thus, an investment in the right sector at the right
time is a definitive means of earning superior returns compared to the benchmark indices. As different economic events drive performance of different
sectors at various points in time, the concept of this style is to side with companies that are at the positive end of a business cycle and avoid companies
that are at the un favourable end of the business cycle.
Strategy
In short, the strategy will be to avoid Underweight sectors that are at the moment defensive and/or underperforming and be over weight on sectors
that are expected to see favourable near term tail winds. The investment strategy will be to manage differential sector exposure levels to constituents of
BSE 200, relative to the Sensex. Alpha will be generated by maintaining an overweight stance on sectors expected to lead the market and by going
under weight/ avoiding sectors that are expected to lag the market. The benchmark for performance evaluation is BSE 30 and universe for investment
in BSE 200
Portfolio Structure
65-80% of the portfolio will be invested in Top-5 sectors of BSE- 30 and the remaining will be invested in bottom up ideas from BSE 200; all sectors
participating in India’s growth is represented in BSE 200. The average market cap of companies in BSE 200 is US$4.7 bn. and the median market cap is
US$2 bn. Our Universe will mostly be limited to BSE 200. BSE 200 companies consist of front line leaders in their respective industries and are
companies that have the best operating levers, financial metrics and governance norms to perform. Among the BSE 200, BSE 30 stocks (Sensex) will
likely have a majority of the exposure.

Deep Value @ Discount Fund
Objective
The Fund seeks to achieve above-average returns with below-average risk. The market’s current focus is on short-term issues, rather than on a long-term structural shift. Today’s valuations allow for exceptional returns along with substantial downside protection. The Fund aims to double investors’capital in 36 months or less.
PhilosophyFocus on absolute returns.Intrinsic value is not a single, precise number. Rather, it is a range.Buy at a discount to intrinsic value, conservatively calculated.Look for situations where the market is not only ignoring the future, but also a bit of the present.The combination of both a bargain price at the time of purchase and the value add from retained earnings over the holding period
will contribute to investment returns.Aim to be rational, not merely contrarian.Cheap price in relation to value is often the single biggest catalyst.
Strategy The fund as the name suggests concentrates on identifying Deep Value buys (within a market cap range of Rs 2000- 10000 million) that arise out ofsituations such as: Pockets of cyclical pessimism towards the industry or the company, Valuation mismatch that arise from de-mergers of disparatedivisions into companies, Compulsions of large institutional investors causing value buying opportunities While we track the performance of ourfirms actively, the fund will hold a very passive, concentrated portfolio of 8-10 stocks with virtually no trading.
Structure and FeesThe Fund will operate on the PMS platform where the investor’s assets will remain either in cash with a bank/liquid fund (pending deployment), orin the form of stock with CDSL. In either case, the assets will be under the investor’s name. The fund would remain open ended, but the expectedtime frame to realize the full value of the investment is about 36 months. Capital would be returned to the investor either when the portfolio doublesor at the completion of 36 months, whichever is earlier. Unifi’s management fee will be 1% p.a. of NAV and a performance fee i.e a 20% profit shareover a 10% hurdle rate..

Unifi Alternative Investment Fund
Investment objectiveThe objective of the fund is to generate consistent absolute returns higher than conventional fixed income instruments.This fund would primarily employ the following strategies with a capability to use permitted leverage and derivatives on an opportunistic basis. Itwould not have any segment bias and would consider equity as well as debt investment opportunities across all sectors subject to extant regulations.
Event Arbitrage Identification of low risk-moderate gain opportunities in the capital markets thrown up by market events, behavior and regulation.Such opportunities arise from corporate events like mergers, acquisition, buyback of shares and regulation triggered open offers for acquisition ofshares from public shareholders.
Convertible Bonds & Arbitrage Investments in rupee or dollar denominated Convertible Bonds / Debentures issued by Indian companies with goodcredit standing. A well-constructed portfolio of Convertibles can deliver attractive yields especially when held till maturity. The yields could furtherimprove if they can be converted into Equity on the stipulated date at a discount to the market price at that point. Our focus would be to invest inconvertible papers of select creditworthy companies to capture appealing YTMs and the potential equity advantage without detracting from the basicobjective of capital safety.
Structured High Yield Debt Investments in high yield debt instruments ranging from pure interest bearing bonds to innovative and varied type ofdebt instruments including asset-backed securitized instruments. The returns from this strategy arise on account of periodical coupon accruals as wellas capital gains.
