During the quarter, the company’s share price declined due to weak earnings results and anticipation of a short-term industry downcycle. This gave us the opportunity to purchase a company that we believe will benefit long term from increased memory demand related to artificial intelligence (AI) at a price below our estimate of intrinsic value.”
