Portfolio manager comments — Q2 2024
Fund performance was positive during Q2 and the fund rose 1% in SEK. The holding in Nibe was weighed down by the weak market for heating pumps in Europe due to persistently high inventories in the distribution chain, declining gas prices and lower subsidies. The inventory situation should be rebalanced during the end of the year and there is a further need for energy transition that is assisted by effective climate solutions over the long term.
Fund returns were also weighed down by the holding in the installation company Bravida when an incident of over-billing by one of the company’s businesses was reported and confirmed. We have a close dialogue with management regarding the company’s measures to strengthen internal routines and processes, which will be followed up. The fund was also weighed down by the holdings in Handelsbanken and Hexagon following Handelsbanken’s release of a weak Q1 report and Hexagon’s construction exposure.
Holdings in AstraZeneca, ABB and Atlas Copco were the strongest contributors to returns, with AstraZeneca’s capital markets day sharing positive outlooks during the quarter and ABB posting strength on reports that were stronger than expected. Atlas Copco continues to perform strongly in the wake of the positive sentiment regarding the benefits realized by the company as a result of the AI trend.
The fund purchased a new holding in Sampo, which is now a pure non-life insurance company with a strong history in an attractive industry with high dividend yields.
We decreased the positions in Novo Nordisk as a result of strong share price performance. In the upcoming reporting period we will continue to focus on investee companies that have sustainable business models and competitive offers with sustainable growth even in a weaker economy.
