Temple Bar Investment Trust PLC Annual General Meeting

Alastair Mundy Target audience This document is being provided for informational purposes only. Circulation must be restricted accordingly. Nothing herein should be construed as an offer to enter into any contract, investment advice, a recommendation of any kind, a solicitation of clients, or an offer to invest in any particular fund, product, investment vehicle or derivative.

General risks The value of investments, and any income generated from them, can fall as well as rise. Where charges are taken from capital, this may constrain future growth. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. If any currency differs from the investor's home currency, returns may increase or decrease as a result of currency fluctuations. Investment objectives and performance targets may not necessarily be achieved, losses may be made.

Specific risks

Borrowing/leverage risk: The Company can borrow additional money to invest, known as leverage. This increases the exposure of the Company to markets above and beyond its total net asset value. This can help to increase the rate of growth of the fund but also cause losses to be magnified. Charges to capital risk: A portion (60%) of the Company’s expenses are charged to its capital account rather than to its income, which has the effect of increasing income (which may be taxable) whilst reducing its capital to an equivalent extent. This could constrain future capital and income growth. Company share price risk: The Company’s share price is determined by supply and demand for such shares in the market as well as the net asset value per share. The share price can therefore fluctuate and may represent a discount or premium to the net asset value per share. This can mean that the price of an ordinary share can move independently of the market. Interest rate: The value of fixed income investments (e.g. bonds) tends to decrease when interest rates and/or inflation rises. Equity investment: The value of equities (e.g. shares) and equity-related investments may vary according to company profits and future prospects as well as more general market factors. In the event of a

company default (e.g. bankruptcy), the owners of their equity rank last in terms of any financial payment from that company. Target Target audience

6 Confidential | Investec Asset Management How we invest

Investment is most intelligent when it is most business-like ● We research assets that are potentially mispriced

● We look for companies that we can understand and value with some measure of confidence

● We value stocks on a through-the-cycle basis with particular attention to downside risks ● We can take a substantial amount of short-term pain (falling stock price) if we are confident our valuation is correct

Our approach requires patience (and capacity to bear short-term pain) but it is inextricably linked to opportunity

Hidden assets Special situations Fallen angels Quality cyclicals Deep value  Mediocre businesses at very  Cannot be computerised  Spin offs  Often old market darlings  Industrials and financials attractive prices

8 Confidential | Investec Asset Management Avoiding value traps What are we not attracted to?

Most of the stock ideas fail one or more of our pre-screening tests which we’ve implemented to avoid value traps

Balance sheet ● Too much debt? ● Hidden liabilities? ● Thinly capitalised financial?

Structural Valuation ● Terminal decline? ● Optical cheapness not enough given ● Risk of obsolescence? Pre-screening the business / industry? ● Value-destructive industry? ● Discount to book for financials tests justified by unappealing returns?

Governance Circle of competence ● Arm of the state? ● Too hard? ● Controlled by a majority shareholder ● Too complicated? with minority shareholder rights and ● Past experience in the sector returns a low priority? suggests avoiding?

9 Confidential | Investec Asset Management After pre-selection Full due diligence lasts between 3 and 6 weeks. Template is flexible but there are certain questions that need to be answered

The price Capital structure ● Is valuation low in absolute terms? ● Is it safe through the cycle? ● We prefer EV/EBIT to take account of capital structure ● Does it give the company time to sort out its current issues?

Objective: The business 1. Is the business cheap in Cash flows ● Can we understand the industry and the relation to its fundamental ● Do they confirm accounting profits? company’s position in it? characteristics? ● How capital-intensive is the business? ● What are its future prospects? 2. What is the likelihood that it will recover? 3. What happens to our investment if we are wrong?

Corporate governance Returns ● Have management been good stewards of the business and ● Does the company add value over time? shareholder funds (can we “trust” them?) ● What is a normal rate of return on capital and why should it continue to ● Do they have a sustainable, long-term strategy? be so?

39 Confidential | Investec Asset Management Summary

● A decade after the financial crisis, the growing global debt mountain remains a significant problem

● The conventional policy tools have been fully used. We believe further unconventional tools will be used in the future

● And if we are worrying about nothing, bonds are significantly over-valued

● And a rise in bond yields would make it hard for equities to gain further ground…

● …although interesting opportunities do exist for contrarians
