WPG Partners
A commitment to small caps.
A traditional value focus.
A process built on unparalleled research.
At WPG Partners, we’ve been investing exclusively in small- and micro-cap companies for more than 25 years. Our approach focuses on identifying overlooked, fundamentally strong companies that are experiencing an inflection point in their business cycles.
A value-oriented approach to small-cap investing
We buy stocks that exhibit:
- Improving capital structures and sound fundamentals
- Inflection points in the business cycle
- Catalysts for sustained positive change
We sell stocks based on:
- Deteriorating balance sheets and weakening fundamentals
- Decreasing demand, margins, and earnings
- Heightened capital requirements or competitive threats
We believe identifying overlooked businesses with improving fundamentals gives us a competitive advantage.
Finding these unique opportunities requires extensive fundamental research. Our process combines comprehensive stock screens, inputs from diverse industry contacts, and hands-on original research, including more than 700 company meetings a year.
