Jason Burack is the CEO of Hawk Capital Management, LLC a registered investment advisor. Being a registered investment adviser or referring to being registered does not imply a certain level of skill or training. The firm manages discretionary fee-only equity portfolios for individuals and families. We focus on stock investments in companies that have capital efficient operating models, recurring revenues, high returns on invested capital, secular industry tailwinds, and an enviable competitive position.
At Hawk Capital Management we are focused on serving
our clients needs and investing in equities
using proprietary research.
The firm strives to build long lasting mutually beneficial relationships with each client. This is achieved through integrity, frequent meaningful communication, and outstanding customer service.
Hawk Capital Management has stringent investment standards for each position in the portfolio, consistent with our concentrated approach.
We generate proprietary equity research using fundamental and industry trend analysis, while employing analytics to enhance our view and understanding.
The firm's equity strategy is a bottom-up fundamental approach using proprietary research. We build concentrated portfolios of initially equally weighted positions, occasionally rebalancing in accordance with information flows and relative weighting deltas. Our focus on smaller capitalization companies allows us to identify potential opportunities where others may not be looking. When evaluating larger more widely followed companies, we identify opportunities where the market's efficiency may have overpriced in a set of expectations.
Hawk Capital Management prefers asset light, recurring revenue businesses that can generate substantial incremental return on invested capital. We also like industry leading firms with enviable competitive positions bordering on monopoly.
An important goal of the research process is to value the underlying business. If a stock trades at a discount to its intrinsic value, there may exist potential for capital appreciation. To determine intrinsic value, we primarily use the balance sheet and discounted cash flow analysis.
