Investment Thesis

  1. Proven valuation franchise with an audited track record.

    JYT authored 70+ client valuation reports at Felix Advisory Private Limited across M&A and venture transactions — DCF, comparable company, precedent transaction, purchase price allocation, and option pricing work — plus integrated three-statement models supporting live deal execution and regulatory filings. This is recurring, high-margin analytical revenue, not a one-off gain.

  2. Publishes research nobody assigned.

    The company independently authored a 12-page Nike vs. Under Armour financial statement analysis — five years of ratios, a differentiated turnaround thesis, and a clear call on the highest-leverage fix — alongside seven published reports spanning M&A, APV, real options, fixed income, and factor models. Management demonstrably does the job before being asked to.

  3. Reinvestment at scale: MS Finance, DePaul (Kellstadt).

    Capital is being deployed into an MS in Finance at DePaul University's Kellstadt Graduate School of Business (3.85 GPA; expected June 2027), with operating leverage from serving as Vice President of Events, Kellstadt Finance Association. Pipeline visibility extends through graduation with multiple catalysts (see below).

Risk Factors

RiskAssessment
Key-person riskSevere and unhedgeable. There is only one of her.
Currency exposureFluent in finance jargon; translation costs for non-finance counterparties may apply.
Liquidity riskCalendar fills quickly. Early positioning strongly advised.
Concentration riskPortfolio heavily overweight spreadsheets. Management sees no reason to diversify.
Sleep (SLEEP ▼ −18%)The single declining line item on the book. Correlated with coffee intake (r ≈ −0.97); management considers it a fair trade.
Regulatory riskSubject to GPA maintenance covenants through June 2027. Currently in comfortable compliance at 3.85.

Alternative Assets — Diversified Personal Holdings

Asset classAllocationHouse viewCommentary
Fragrance portfolio 38% BUY Each holding is mapped to its issuing company and carries an internal buy/hold/sell rating. Yes, really. The desk takes scent-to-equity coverage extremely seriously.
Book library 32% ACCUMULATE Long-duration compounding assets. Shelf capacity is the binding constraint; management continues to add on weakness.
Equity research writing 22% OVERWEIGHT Held for strategic purposes. Occasionally spun off into 12-page public filings (see Coverage History).
Cash & equivalents (free time) 8% UNDERWEIGHT Structurally scarce. See "Liquidity risk," above.

Allocations are approximate, unaudited, and subject to change without notice, particularly following fragrance launches.
