Profile
Kempen International Funds SICAV – the Kempen (Lux) European Small-cap Fund (the Fund) manages a bottom-up investment process to a concentrated portfolio containing relatively high-quality, small European businesses, with the aim of earning an attractive return in the long term.

Portfolio developments per 2019-02-28
In January we have expanded our portfolio with one new name: SAF Holland. During February we increased the weight of this name and added another two names to our portfolio: Euronext and Vesuvius. In addition, we have completely sold our positions in Amer Sports and Aurelius.
The best performing companies were Greggs, Sweco and Kingspan Group. In a trading update Greggs (+18%) announced a 14% increase in revenue for the period until 16 February of which +9.6% like-for-like sales growth in the company managed shops. Although partly helped by an easy comparison basis, the strong start of the year will cause the underlying profit before tax to exceed previous expectations. Sweco (+16%) reported solid organic growth and earnings above market expectations. Sweco’s most important market, Sweden, showed a strong recovery after a weak Q3. Kingspan Group (+16%), the global leader in high performance insulation reported a good and well received set of full year results. Revenue grew by 21% in 2018 and EBITDA improved by 18% vs the prior year.
Weakest performers were Mekonomen, Ion Beam and Sabre Insurance Group. Mekonomen (-7%) already prewarned in January. The final results were in line. The company proposes to not pay a dividend given the leverage on its balance sheet. Ion Beam (-6%), the world’s leading provider of proton therapy solutions, provided a trading update ahead of the company’s full year results release on March 21. While some orders will not be included in FY2018, the company confirmed its earlier profit guidance and continues its path to sustained profitability. Sabre Insurance Group (-3%) had its stock trading flattish for most of the month. The stock ended the month on a weak note without company specific newsflow.
ESG commentary
Exercising voting rights is an essential part of responsible investment and active shareholdership and constitutes a powerful tool of engagement. At Kempen we often take the opportunity to comment on Annual General Meetings (AGM) agendas, engage with management around controversial items, and in some cases attend the meeting in person. In anticipation of the 2019 proxy voting season we have improved the Kempen voting and governance policy, reflecting insights we gained from internal working groups, participation in industry-wide investor think tanks, as well as by observing governance trends across jurisdictions. Some of the major adjustments include increased frequency of auditor rotation in regard to EU audit legislation, stricter director independence criteria, a broader definition of board diversity, remuneration guidelines around major corporate transactions, as well as the improvement of shareholder rights.

Our KCM wide approach to responsible investment
To put our vision into action we engage with our investment targets on a wide array of strategic, financial, environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics. Our long-term investment worldview paired with thorough analysis and an experienced and diverse ESG team allow us to use both voting and engagement as means to consistently encourage positive change. Through this process of constructive engagement, we are able to contribute to the development of principles and standards of corporate responsibility within companies that we invest in. Our full voting records are available here.
Our fund approach to Responsible Investment
Exclude
Exclude investment in entities involved in the production tobacco and of controversial weapons, such as cluster munitions, anti-personnel mines, nuclear warheads, chemical and biological weapons
For the sustainable strategies exclude adult entertainment, alcohol, animal testing, fur, gambling, GMO, nuclear energy, thermal coal and weaponry.
Integrate
We undertake our own fundamental ESG research on each company
Then an independent sustainability consultant checks the scores which drives the rating
We will only invest in companies that have either a Provisional or Pass rating
If a company receives a Fail rating then we will not invest
Engage
ESG engagement can enhance performance through increasing upside potential and mitigating downside risk
We believe that all companies face ESG issues and that it is important to address these before and during investment
As long-term shareholders it is our fiduciary duty to consistently encourage positive change through engagement and exercising proxy voting rights
