On 23 October 2013 Kempen SeNSe Fund (KSF) was merged with Kempen (Lux) Sustainable European Small-cap Fund (the Fund). In June 2011 the first institutional class of the Fund was launched. The results shown of the periods before June 2011 are those of KSF. KSF had a similar investment structure, a higher cost structure and a different tax regime that could have influenced the returns shown. Until 28 February 2017 the benchmark of the Fund was the MSCI Europe Small Cap Total Return Index, of which the constituents are adjusted by reducing the UK component by 50%. Performance is shown after deduction of ongoing charges. The value of your investments may fluctuate. Past performance provides no guarantee for the future.

Market developments per 2019-03-31
In March the Fund (I-class) increased by 2.2% (net of fees), versus a 1.4% increase for the MSCI Europe small-cap index. Year to date, the Fund (I-class) increased by 14.9% (net of fees) versus a 14.2% increase of the benchmark.
Portfolio developments per 2019-03-31
In March we have expanded our portfolio with four new names: Sbanken, Hibernia, Sydbank and Krones.
The best performing companies were Ion Beam, I.M.A. Industria Macchine Automatiche and SimCorp. In a trading update Ion Beam (+29%) presented its full year results which were in line with the previously lowered expectations. Furthermore, the company announced that they will enter final negotiations for a multi room system in China. We see this as an important yet unusual announcement indicating ongoing favorable activity in the market. Increased activity and resulting contract awards are necessary to support the valuation of Ion Beam’s share price. However, in the past Ion Beam typically announced contract wins when they were signed as opposed to when they were about to enter final negotiations. All in all, the positive share price reaction clearly indicates that this announcement alleviated concerns that some investors have had. Following solid results that showed particular strength in Food and Pharma, I.M.A. Industria Macchine Automatiche’s (+19%) chairman targets €2bn sales in 4 years, suggesting high single digit annual revenue growth. During March SimCorp (+10%) announced three contract wins. Last three years SimCorp has won on average 10 contracts on an annual basis, so the company started this year very strong. These contract wins underline the favorable long-term growth prospects and strong market position of SimCorp.
Weakest performers were Implenia, Coats Group and Brembo. This month there were no significant press releases by Implenia (-11%) other than a contract win and the outcome of the company’s annual general meeting with all proposals being approved. Yet, the shares showed a marked decline in March. We attribute this decline to the company’s roadshow following last month’s results announcement and investors continuing to adjust exposures in their portfolios. Coats Group (-11%) shares pulled back after reaching new highs at the end of February on the back of solid results. Brembo (-5%) shares were under pressure from overall negative sentiment in the global automotive industry as illustrated by soft guidance for flat volumes in 2019.
ESG commentary
We are pleased to see the successful implementation of a low sugar program at AG Barr, a UK based manufacturer and distributor of soft drinks. Today over 99% of the AG Barr portfolio of manufactured soft drinks is outside the scope of the Soft Drinks Industry Levy (SDIL), which came into effect in 2018. The so-called ‘sugar tax’ was first announced in 2016, in line with the UK government commitment to tackling rising rates of obesity and type 2 diabetes. The SDIL would tax the soft drinks industry for total sugar content over 5g per 100ml and apply to drinks such as AG Barr’s Irn Bru. We have had engagement meetings with the company in 2017 and 2018 to discuss the company's response to consumer trends towards low sugar drinks and the potential impact of the sugar tax.

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
