Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Recently I asked a question about Crius "Where are the earnings?"

You replied on April 19th that "Crius made 44 million last year." I had hoped for something more detailed but I obviously should have asked a more detailed question.

To that end, Crius lost 74.9 million the year before (2015) although part of it was one time. If you combined the two years, the payout is hardly 60% of earnings.

My questions are:

1) Has Crius had positive earnings in years prior to 2016? I understand it's a relatively new company and a series of losses aren't that unusual.
2) I feel that you think Crius has turned a corner at this point and 2016 will be more typical than 2015. If so, could you explain your reasoning. I'm considering an investment.

Q: Peter, in the past you've indicated that you want to like this stock more. It's finally moved over this past half year, or so, as it's finally getting noticed again.

Can you get past the fees, etc., which you've objected to previously? To me, the fees are relatively modest, considering the discount to NAV, private holdings, astute management, overall long term decisions made by the company, etc.

They have a good sized stake in Real Matters, which will have its IPO in early May.

And, would you consider it ever for a spot in one of your coveted portfolios?

Thanks,
David
