DALLAS, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ranger investment Management,
L.P. (Ranger Investments), a boutique investment manager specializing in small- and micro-cap U.S. growth strategies, has been named to the PSN Top Guns List of high-performing separate accounts, managed portfolios or managed ETF strategies for the period ended June 30, 2024. Ranger Investments was also named to the PSN Top Guns List for the period ended March 31, 2024.
Dallas-based Ranger Investments' Micro Cap Growth strategy received Top Gun 6 Stars for the period ended June 30, 2024 in the micro cap universe. The Ranger Micro Cap Growth strategy also generated the best five-year annualized returns among the 10 strategies receiving this designation through the period ended June 30, 2024.
The recent PSN Top Guns list ranks investment strategies in six proprietary categories in more than 75 asset class universes based on continued performance over time and is a widely used resource by investors, financial advisors, and asset managers.
To be awarded six stars, strategies must:
have an r-squared of 0.80 or greater relative to the style benchmark for the recent five-year period,
have returns greater than the style benchmark for the three latest three-year rolling periods, and
have a standard deviation for the five-year period equal or less than the median standard deviation for the peer group.
Then, the strategies with the top 10 information ratios for the latest five-year period receive 6 Star status.
Ranger Investments'
U.S. Micro Cap Growth strategy is team managed by portfolio managers Conrad Doenges, Andrew Hill, Joseph LaBate, and Brown McCullough and senior analysts Devin Holland, Kevin Zhu and Jeff Dalton. Ranger Investments launched the strategy for institutional investors on Aug. 1, 2014 and now offers it as a separate account, model portfolio, and mutual fund-the Ranger Micro Cap Institutional Fund (RFIMX).
"We're pleased that our Micro Cap Growth strategy has been recognized again with
PSN Top Guns status," said Doenges, who also serves as Ranger Investments' chief investment officer. "The portfolio continues to deliver strong returns for investors in the micro cap category, providing just one example that there are attractive opportunities in the U.S. stock market beyond mega cap stocks."
The Ranger U.S. Micro Cap Growth strategy recently marked its 10-year anniversary. The strategy composite annualized return was 14.51%, net of fees, for the 10 years through July 31, 2024, vs 5.57% for its benchmark, the Russell Microcap Growth Index, for the same period. The cumulative 10-year return for the strategy, net of fees, is 287.5% since inception through July 31, 2024, vs 72.0% for the Russell Microcap Growth Index. The annualized and cumulative 10-year returns for the strategy have also exceeded those of the large cap S&P 500 Index over the same period.
The Micro Cap Growth strategy's goal is to capture and compound returns while managing risk to preserve shareholder capital. Ranger's investment team seeks to invest in
U.S. micro cap growth companies with distinctive advantages, including durable business models, sustainable growth, expanding markets, and exceptional management. The concentrated portfolio currently has approximately 35 positions.
