Fund Information

Jensen Value is a no-load mutual fund comprised of approximately 50-60 high quality common stocks of successful, well-managed companies that we believe are undervalued relative to their business performance.

The selection process targets companies that have achieved strong business performance in each of the last 10 years and which have financial strength and sustainable competitive advantages. These companies have produced consistent returns above their capital costs, which we believe makes them more likely to deliver attractive long-term shareholder returns.

We apply specific quantitative factors to our well-defined universe of fewer than 200 companies.  These factors are rooted in fundamentally-based investment principles and supported by extensive back testing of our investable universe.  We believe they are predictive of future market performance.  The factors reflect each company’s consistency of business performance, operating efficiency and valuation of its stock. 

Each quarter qualifying companies are assigned a score based on these factors and ranked within Jensen’s investable universe. The top one-third are included in The Jensen Value Fund subject to its optimization to the Russell 3000 Value Index.

The Fund sells a company when it drops from the top-one third of the universe as determined by the quarterly ranking process, subject to optimization, or when it’s fundamentals deteriorate, indicating a loss of competitive advantage.

While the Fund is no-load, there are management fees and operating expenses that do apply.

There is no assurance that the investment process will lead to successful investing or that the stated objective(s) will be met.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Fund invests in mid and smaller capitalization companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. The Fund may invest in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods.

The Russell 3000 Value index measures the performance of those Russell 3000 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. This index is unmanaged, and you cannot invest directly in an index.
