CORBYN
INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, INC.
INVESTMENT
PROGRAMS
Strategic
Value — The objective of this investment program
is primarily capital appreciation with some income generation. To
achieve this goal, equity and fixed income holdings will tend to
be in fewer, more concentrated positions compared to other Corbyn
account types. This account strategy may also experience a higher
rate of turnover and on occasion we may invest a substantial portion
of the account in “event-driven” equity or fixed-income
securities such as workouts and special situations.
Capital
Appreciation — The objective of this investment program
is capital appreciation with some income generation. The account
is invested primarily in equity securities, but will also have exposure
to fixed income securities. That exposure will focus both on securities
capable of providing equity-like returns as well as fixed income
securities where the primary attribute is the generation of attractive
fixed income streams. Income generation is a secondary consideration.
Balanced
—
The objective of this investment program is capital appreciation,
with income generation an important, but secondary, goal. Balanced
accounts, the largest number of accounts managed by Corbyn, are
invested in both equity and fixed income securities. The relative
weighting between these security types will vary depending on available
investment opportunities and market conditions. The ratio of equity
to fixed income investments is lower than that of the capital appreciation
account classification.
Income
Oriented — The primary
objective of this investment program is to generate current income,
with the achievement of capital appreciation a secondary consideration.
To attain this objective, Corbyn invests primarily in fixed income
investments with either income or capital appreciation potential.
Equity investments may be included; however, they will comprise
a much smaller portion of the portfolio.
Strategic
Income — The principal
objective of this investment program is total return, primarily
resulting from current income, but also some capital appreciation.
To accomplish this objective, we employ a flexible strategy of investing
in fixed income securities including convertible bonds, corporate
bonds, and preferred stocks. There is a heavy emphasis on high-yielding
convertible bonds, where the focus is on the yield-to-expected-maturity,
not the conversion feature of the bonds. The goal is to achieve
total returns that are less dependent upon general interest rate
moves with low correlation to movements in the equity markets.
Income
Only —
The objective of this investment program is to provide a significantly
higher return, after fees, than that which is available on short-term
Treasury securities, money market funds, or CDs. To accomplish
this objective, Corbyn invests in inefficiently priced fixed income
securities with current income as the overriding goal. An income
only account is ideal for individuals and corporations seeking
higher income than that available with current interest rates
or for those portfolios for which no stock market exposure is
desired. The fee for this account is less than that charged for
standard accounts.
