“There were four material contributors to performance: Amazon.com, Inc., TransDigm Group Inc., CoStar Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSGP), and Microsoft Corp. CoStar was one of our best performing investments in 2022, and that trend continued throughout the first half of this year. CoStar reported good results with a 13% increase in revenue, earnings ahead of guidance, and strong free cash flow. They continue to be excited about the progress they are making in terms of growing market share across their suite of products. We expect that the investments that they are making will result in long-term earnings growth and margin expansion. The downward volatility in its stock price in early 2023 gave us an opportunity to add to our position. We are seeing the benefits of that decision, and we continue to be very excited about the company’s prospects.”
