The firm employs a bottom-up approach to identify stocks with above-average earnings growth, strong financial strength, dominant business models, pricing power, significant free cash flows, attractive risk/reward characteristics and the ability to prosper in a variety of market environments.

Position sizes average 5%, although that weighting may vary depending on a stock's risk-reward characteristics. Roxbury's Health Sciences strategy is a non-diversified product that focuses on healthcare investments including biotechnology, medical devices, pharmaceutical and professional health services companies. They employ a bottom-up approach to identify stocks with above-average earnings and dividend growth, strong financial strength, dominant business models, pricing power, significant free cash flows and attractive risk/reward characteristics.

The typically portfolio holds 35 to 60 stocks with market-caps averaging below $10 billion. Individual positions are limited to 5% of the portfolio at cost. Roxbury's Small-Cap Growth strategy seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in stocks with market-caps below $2 billion that have strong growth characteristics and attractive pricing relative to underlying profitability. The process begins by screening a universe of stocks with future expected earnings growth of greater than 15%. The firm then performs fundamental analysis to identify companies with growing revenues, stable or expanding margins, emerging industry leadership positions, low debt levels, solid cash flows and high or potentially high returns on capital. Further research is performed to identify companies with dominant competitive positions, positive business and market trends and strong management teams. Companies become a purchase candidate only if the firm believes there is a catalyst in place to provide for at least 15% stock price appreciation over the next 12 months.

Individual stock positions are limited to a maximum of 5% and sector concentrations can't be more than 15% different than the weightings in the Russell 2000 Growth Index.

Roxbury looks for companies with favorable competitive positions, strong financials and a commitment to enhancing shareholder value. Companies typically have seasoned operations that can continue to grow in a variety of market environments and are run by experienced management teams. Companies should also have proprietary technologies, free cash flow generation, low cost production and high barriers to entry.

Roxbury looks for companies with attractive unit growth opportunities, strong pricing power, dominant or rapidly growing market shares, sustainable or expanding profit margins, well-capitalized balance sheets and consistent excess free cash flows. The portfolio typically consists of 30 to 50 stocks. Position sizes range from 1% to 5% at cost.	Analyst-Equity	-
