Palouse Capital Management, Inc. Named to PSN Top Guns List of Best Performing Strategies for Q2 2023

Quarterly PSN Top Guns List published by Zephyr identifies best-in-class separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies 

Spokane, WA (September 28, 2023) – Palouse Capital Management, Inc. (“PCM”) announced today that its Diversified Income (“DI”) strategy has been named to the celebrated PSN Top Guns List of best performing separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies for Q2 2023.  PCM’s DI strategy was ranked #6 of ten in the three star PSN Top Guns US Balanced category for the second quarter1. The highly anticipated list, published by Zephyr, remains one of the most important references for investors and asset managers.   

“Volatility in the market continues to drive investors to actively managed investments like SMAs,” says Chris Volpe, Director of Wealth Management Solutions for Zephyr. “PSN Top Guns provides the intelligence and insight to identify strategies that align with client goals. Palouse Capital Management, Inc. is a best-in-class performer and worthy of this influential recognition.” 

PCM manages its DI strategy to generate income and long-term capital appreciation. The DI strategy’s investable universe includes dividend-paying common equities, preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and bonds. The tactical allocation of the DI strategy is to maximize income while controlling risk via asset class diversification. PCM’s fundamental value approach to common equity selection is generally applied; however, with all investment decisions, income is prioritized. Therefore, the fund seeks to invest in common equities with higher-than-average dividend yields and dividend potential. PCM’s DI strategy is team-managed by Spencer Shelman, CFA, Bryn Harman, CFA, and Ryan Long, CFA.

“We are honored to be recognized by PSN as among the top ten performing asset managers in the balanced category for our Diversified Income strategy over the trailing three-year period,” stated Spencer Shelman, Portfolio Manager for PCM.  “The PSN Top Guns recognition is especially meaningful to us today because of the volatile interest rate backdrop that we’ve seen over the past few years.  We see an attractive set up for the strategy in the years ahead, as interest rates continue to see big moves and active management of investor capital experiences a renaissance.” 

Bryn Harman, PCM’s Chief Investment Officer, stated “We are proud to once again receive PSN’s recognition for our efforts with the DI strategy. This is the thirteenth time that our DI strategy has been recognized on the Top Guns list since its inception in 2010. Three of our other strategies, Small/Mid Cap Value, Large Cap Value and Large Cap Value Total Return, have been on PSN Top Guns lists in the past. We employ the same fundamental approach to investing across all of our strategies, and our long-term performance has shown that our approach has worked well through several phases of the business cycle.” 

Through a combination of PSN’s proprietary performance screens, the PSN Top Guns List ranks products in six proprietary categories in over 75 universes based on continued performance over time.

Ken Roberts Investment Management Inc., of Spokane, says it has expanded its offerings to include a new Small/Mid Value strategy.

“Our firm has always had a fundamentally driven value-investment philosophy in buying companies that appear to be below our estimates of attainable future value based on the long-term fundamentals of a business,” says Ken Roberts, the firm’s founder and chief investment officer, in a press release.

“Our new Small/Mid Value strategy provides a natural transition down the market cap range from our Large-Cap Value strategy,” Roberts says. “We feel that by consistently applying the invest- ment team’s long-term experience and discipline in analyzing market cycles, sectors, industries, and individual companies, we can provide a unique opportunity for our clients when buying undervalued small to mid-sized companies.“

Chartered Financial Analyst Bryan Harman, who has more than 17 years of experience analyzing small and mid-size companies, is serving as Roberts’ senior portfolio manager for the newly introduced strategy.

Harmon says in the press release he has recog- nized during his years in equity research and portfolio management that smaller companies “have less research coverage providing greater inefficiencies in the pricing of their stock.”

He says, “Our research effort focuses on finding companies typically below $5 billion in market capitalization, with strong balance sheets, that are undervalued relative to their peer group, and that exhibit strong upside potential in earnings and, thus, stock price appreciation.”

Adds Harmon, “This new strategy really gives us another way to serve our clients’ needs, and I am truly enjoying the in-depth company-by-company research effort necessary to building diversified client portfolios.”

Founded in 1994, Ken Roberts Investment Management is a boutique asset-management firm that provides active asset management nationally to high net-worth individuals, corporations, foun- dations, endowments, and public funds.

Past performance is no indication of future results. All investments involve risk including the loss of principal. Small- cap investing typically carries more risk than investing in well-established large cap companies since smaller companies generally have limited product lines and financial resources and a higher risk of failure. Historically, smaller companies’ stock has have experienced a greater degree of market volatility than the average stock. KRIM’s Small/Mid Value Strategy may not be suitable for everyone.
