Profile
Kempen International Funds SICAV - Kempen (Lux) Sustainable Small-cap Fund (the Fund) aims to generate strong long-term investment results by investing in a concentrated portfolio of smaller European companies that adhere to strict sustainability criteria integrating environmental, ethical, and social standards.
The Fund is managed on the basis of a bottom-up stock picking strategy that focuses on the identification of high quality companies and special situations. High quality companies have a proven and sustainable competitive advantage which is characterised by strong returns on invested capital, while special situations include companies that will benefit from a restructuring of their cost base or capital structure, a change in management, or for example, new regulation.
The fund manager believes that consistent investment results can be achieved using its investment philosophy that focuses on earnings as a key driver of stock prices in the long run, and change within a company as a catalyst. The Fund only invests when risk and reward are asymmetrically related.

Market developments per 2018-12-31
In December the Fund (I-class) was down 5.3%, versus a 6.4% decline for the MSCI Europe small-cap index. In 2018, the Fund (I-class) is down 18.2% (after costs) versus the benchmark that is down 15.9%.
Whereas company specific news flow was very light in December, markets were overwhelmed by political/macro oriented news flow which sent global stock markets down. The two main events which triggered a sell-off in global stock markets in December are: 1) the planned two interest rate hikes for FY19 which may cause the current fragile economic recovery in Europe to stall and 2) the arrest of Huawei CEO Ms Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver, Canada reduces the likelihood of a short-term resolution in the trade war between the US and China.

Portfolio developments per 2018-12-31
During December we added three new names to the portfolio which are still relatively small. There were no complete sales during December.
The best performing companies were Amer Sports, SimCorp and Sweco. The formal announcement of the €40 per share offer early December significantly increased the likelihood of the delisting of Amer Sports and triggered a 16% increase in the share price in December. SimCorp shares recovered from the weakness in November as the company announced two orders with new US clients and one order with an existing German client. The announcement of AF to acquire Poyry at a 45% premium on previous day closing price to create a leading European engineering and consulting company shows the underlying value of Sweco’s business model.
Weakest performers were Implenia, Aurelius and Ion Beam. On the first day of the month Implenia issued a profit warning for FY18 but reiterated its medium-term targets. Comments that earlier identified problem projects (Norway) are deteriorating and new potential problem projects (Germany, Poland) are identified recently is clearly disappointing. Projects not under control and a weak balance sheet (equity only represents 21% of balance sheet) means that the company has little headroom to absorb additional project losses. Despite management reiterating its FY19 outlook and confirming the earlier identified operational improvement potential of its investments in its December shareholder letter the Aurelius shares were weak in December. In an update Ion Beam management disclosed the win of one new contract and that the strategic discussion on its Dosimetry business is ongoing. More contract wins or financing of contracts are required for the company to reach its FY18 guidance of positive FY18 EBIT. We believe the share price already largely reflects the risk of not meeting guidance.

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.

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
