Oakmark International Small Cap Fund made the following comment about Sapiens International Corporation N.V. (NASDAQ:SPNS) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

"Sapiens International Corporation N.V. (NASDAQ:SPNS) (Israel) is a global leader in core software solutions in the insurance industry. Because insurance core software is the most mission-critical function in an insurance company and replacing a system is both expensive and disruptive, Sapiens’s customer base is extremely sticky. Given that half of all insurers still use mainframes and will need to modernize to stay competitive, we believe that Sapiens also has significant growth potential. Even after a company selects Sapiens, there are further long-tailed opportunities for growth. Finally, the company has multiple opportunities for margin expansion, including offshoring service talent, re-leveraging its North America business investments and transitioning to the cloud."
