SaltLight Capital made the following comment about Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (NYSE:BAM) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:
“We’ve spoken about Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (NYSE:BAM) (down 32% YTD), our North American alternative asset manager in our 1Q22 and 2Q22 letters extensively. Rising interest rates will likely adjust some portfolio valuations however offsetting this is that Brookfield is positively exposed to inflationary assets. Management held an investor day last quarter and upgraded their five-year targets.
The spin-off transaction will be completed in the next month, and we’ll start to receive back some enviable cash flow. The spun-off manager will likely trade at a 6%-8% yield on distributable earnings and given the growth in the underlying asset management business, this could grow at c. 12-15% per annum. 81% of Brookfield’s funds are perpetual or greater than ten years in duration, which means that the base revenues are recurring to at least 2032.
We think that there will be many more opportunities for BAM in the ‘re-shoring’ of key industries like the recent $15bn Intel Fab funding deal[2]. Few private equity funds can invest these kinds of sums in one deal and over-indebted sovereign balance sheets are unlikely to offer much support. This leaves a wide opportunity for scaled investment managers like Brookfield.”
