Investment Manager's Review

 

Third Point LLC (the "Investment Manager" or the "Manager") generated positive returns in each portfolio strategy in the first quarter of 2014. Strong credit portfolio performance was largely responsible for gains amidst a volatile equity market environment.

 

In the first quarter, the fund returned 3.3%, nearly double the S&P's returns over the same period with approximately half of the market's equity exposure. Structured credit generated more than 50% of returns for the period, driven by profitable gains in the Alt-A reremic portfolio. On average capital invested, this portfolio gained 14.2% while corporate credit investments gained 8.8% and equity positions were up 1.6%.

 

The Investment Manager maintains a constructive view of global growth and expects strong growth in the U.S. in the second quarter as those markets rebound from winter weather-related setbacks. The portfolio primarily contains compelling, attractively-valued, catalyst oriented situations which are appropriately sized to the Investment Manager's convictions. The Manager will look for attractive entry points to initiate or add to positions as a result of further short-term market volatility.

 

The Investment Manager provides additional transparency to the Master Fund's investors. On a monthly basis the Investment Manager discloses (via a RNS release) the Master Partnership's strategy exposure and performance attribution, geographic exposure, exposure by market cap, and position concentrations. 

 

Material Events

Other than those previously disclosed, the Board of the Company is not aware of any material events or transactions that have occurred between 31 December 2013 and the date of the publication of this statement, which would have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
