Source: AMBIT Capital, Bloomberg, data as at June 2020

The above chart and names of the stock / companies are provided for illustration purpose only and represents historical data without having any regards to their future performance.

Source - Ambit Capital Research, The study has gathered a list of Mid Cap stocks which have entered Nifty. It has given a market cap journey of Mid Cap stocks for 5 years before the inclusion in

Nifty index. t-0 represents the year in which the stock has been included in Nifty. t-1 is 1 year before the inclusion in Nifty. Similarly going down to t-5 indicates the market cap of Mid Cap stock 5

years before the inclusion in Nifty. The study has taken an average market cap of all such stocks for these 5 periods which is shown in the chart below. Past performance may or may not sustain

and doesn’t guarantee the future performance. Further, it does not constitute investment research, investment advice or a recommendation to any reader of this content to buy or sell investments.

Mid Caps progress in size before Nifty inclusion

Large caps of tomorrow

– Historically, Nifty’s constituents change by 50% every decade

– Midcaps of today may graduate to become the large caps of tomorrow thereby, replacing the current Nifty

constituents

– Midcaps are an ideal way to gain exposure to some of the rapidly growing industries and business

Over the last 3 years some of the mid cap stocks have become Large caps and entered Large cap indices

But 5 years prior to their inclusion, they were small or mid caps, much smaller in size and much less discussed!

Early exposure to Mid Caps provides access to rapidly growing businesses

HSBC Large and Midcap Equity Fund – primary thought process

Our thought process is as follows

• The key theme of the portfolio has been to be with sector leaders across market capitalisation and as they

would gain from market share and profit pool consolidation. Thus all companies will be dominant players in

their respective sectors.

• We would be looking to be in large caps where scale will be an advantage (like in banks/financials) while for

midcaps the focus will be on sector leaders or niche players in their respective businesses.

• In sectors like retail, consumer durables, specialty chemicals etc. there are sector leaders and niche players

from midcap and smallcap. These sectors may not be represented by largecap names. However, they provide

tremendous market opportunity and can exhibit sustainable profit growth.

• In certain other cases like that of healthcare, we have mix of large and midcaps as there are players in hospitals

or diagnostics which are midcap.

• Also in some cases like financials which is dominated through select large Private Banks, we can look to have

niche regional players (regional banks with strong liability franchise and capital adequacy) and select NBFCs

with strong parentage. This is more from a bottom up perspective.

• We would be focusing on dominant players in their respective sectors, exhibiting sustainable profitability and are

available at reasonable valuations.

• Type of scheme - Large & Mid Cap Fund - An open ended equity

scheme investing in both large cap and mid cap stocks.

• Large and Mid Cap focus - As the name suggests, the scheme

aims to focus on Large Cap and Mid Cap stocks.

• Minimum investment - The fund will hold a minimum 35% of the

corpus in Large Cap companies, while another 35% will be

Current investment theme

Economic impact of COVID-19 can be classified into lockdown phase and the post lockdown phase.

In the post lockdown phase, the markets have begun to look forward to resumption in supply as well as

recovery in demand.

At the moment, the focus of the market is on companies which would revive quickly while once the pandemic

is over and the economy returns to normalcy then the focus would be on companies that would thrive.

Disruptions have created long term investment themes. Each set of crises have seen new trends emerging

from the scene.

COVID-19 being an unprecedented, we believe that there would be an emergence of a new normal with

impact felt across industries (though the impact will not be uniform).

Even before this disruption, the most prominent theme that drove our portfolio construction view was that of

profit pool migration towards market share gainers. Due to the COVID-19 disruption, this process of profit

pool migration towards dominant players will accelerate.

This is leading to big companies becoming bigger and stronger. This theme was / is visibly across many

sectors – notably among Financials, Telecom, Real Estate, Airlines etc.

The above trend would be there in most sectors but it would become more visible in more disrupted sectors

like Travel, Entertainment, Hospitality, Construction etc.

From a medium to long term perspective, the current phase of disruption shall also pave way for accelerated

digital adoption by consumers as well as enterprises.

We see telecom, internet economy, ecommerce, technology vendors etc to benefit from this disruption.

Another long term theme is that of diversification of the global supply chain due to ‘China + 1’ strategy which

could be adopted by corporates as well as economies and India could stand to benefit out of that.

Disruptions have created long term investment themes

Past performance may or may not sustain and doesn’t guarantee the future performance

Current investment theme

In the short term, we are more positive on sectors that can exhibit revenue and earnings resilience as the

impact of the Pandemic and the resultant lockdown in the economy is not uniform across sectors.

We believe that in the near term, growth will be scarce and the balance sheet strength of the companies will be

challenged in a year like the current one. So a company that is displaying growth in earnings and having

balance sheet strength will command a premium and market would be willing to pay.

We believe that the revenue and earnings resilience is most likely to be demonstrated by segments that are in

the business of providing basic and essential products/services. (Example: Healthcare and Telecom). We have

a positive view of these sectors.

We are also moderately positive on companies/sectors that can demonstrate faster recovery in case of an

economic rebound. This would be demonstrated by sectors where there would pent up demand post the

disruption phase. So, as and when the normalcy returns, so would the sales for those companies / sectors. We

are using the correction to reorient the exposure within the Consumer Discretionary space which would be a

beneficiary of this pent-up demand. We are more positive on Consumer Goods as against Consumer Services

part of the discretionary basket at this juncture.

We are also positive on the beneficiaries of the global supply chain diversification, away from China to India.

(e.g. Specialty Chemicals).

We are also moderately positive on companies which would be beneficiaries of a benign crude oil price

environment. These would be sectors where their raw material prices are linked to crude price ( like paints,

PVC pipes).

Currently, we believe that private sector capex as well as government capex will get delayed and we hold

negative view on the sectors dependent on capex. We also have negative view on labour intensive sectors

such as construction, travel, hospitality etc.

In the short term we are more positive on companies that exhibit earnings resilience

Current key focused sectors in HLMEF

Data as at June 2020, OW – Overweight, EW – Equal Weight

Sectors Comments

Healthcare

We are overweight on account of the expected resilience in earnings and also ability to retain the demand in the

current environment compared to other sectors. Recent approval of facilities by the US FDA will improve the

prospects of US business of investee companies. We also believe that the focus of buyers in the US will also be to

ensure steady supply of generic drugs, whereas in the past, price reduction was the only focus. This should ease

pricing pressure for Indian companies as well as give them higher visibility of demand. Domestic business will see a

modest growth as chronic segment will be stable but acute segment will show a decline. Stabilization of raw material

supplies from China has eased pressure on raw material sourcing. We have increase our exposure to the sector,

primarily through companies having US generic business as well as domestic business. Our exposure to pathology

labs is under anticipation that their demand would recover once lockdown is lifted as their services are largely non-

discretionary.

Telecom

Services

Telecom is one sector that will see very limited impact of the lock-down in the country owing to the essential nature

of the service. Looking beyond this crisis period, the telecom sector continues to be a beneficiary of consolidation

and tariff improvement. We see profitability of the sector coming back strongly and the post consolidation phase

would benefit players who are better positioned on network / spectrum and also with better access and ability to

deploy future capital. Our preference is for players with relatively stronger balance sheet and showing better

execution on the ground.

Consumer

discretionary

The fund is overweight in sectors which can benefit from pent up demand, especially consumer goods (like

durables, jewellery, kitchen appliances, passenger vehicles etc.). Our exposure is through market leaders which

should also benefit from market share gains. We also have exposure to tyre industry in the auto sector, which will

also benefit from replacement demand.
