Overview & Strategy Blueprint Capital Management (BCM) offers an actively managed small/micro-cap equity strategy.

Each client has real-time transparency and individual liquidity via separately managed accounts. We aim to deliver investment returns that are primarily driven by our security selection, based on our combined 30 years of investment experience. BCM focuses on exploiting inefficiencies within small/micro-caps through our research process which requires direct and frequent interaction with the senior management of the companies in which we invest. Many of our investments are not yet on the radar of Wall Street, which can result in first mover advantages for our clients. Investment Philosophy & Portfolio Construction The BCM strategy follows a high-conviction, concentrated approach, delivering between 12-15 best ideas to clients. We believe this approach maximizes investment returns for clients, driven by stock-specific outcomes. We have the flexibility to invest in shorter term opportunities, but we strive for a medium-term holding period, which may offer certain tax efficiencies for certain clients. We generally focus on the Technology and Consumer sectors. High barriers to entry are a positive (ie. intellectual property, patents, first mover advantage). Why Small/Micro-caps? Investors are generally under-exposed to small/micro-cap companies, despite this market segment being 8x larger, as measured by the total number of companies, vs. the large cap universe. Historical returns from small/micro-cap indices have generally outperformed large cap indices over various time periods, and have provided meaningful diversification benefits to investor portfolios. Portfolio Managers Neil Cataldi and Jason Revland have a combined 30 years of Wall Street experience across multiple disciplines including: portfolio management, fundamental research, trading, and client service. Both have significant personal capital invested alongside our investors in the strategy.
