Here is what Wedgewood Partners specifically said about Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) in its Q2 2022 investor letter:

“Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) grew its core recurring revenue at a +6% organic rate driven by the increase in the number of open equity and ETF positions at its platform customers. We think this increase in position count was a pleasant surprise compared to the downturn in asset prices seen during most of the quarter. Broadridge customers include large online brokerage providers that have expanded into the mass market. As more investors carry more positions and instruments (regardless of size) Broadridge’s services are necessary to connect these investors with corporate governance communications from issuers and other service providers. All told, we think the expansion of capital markets is a healthy long-term trend that Broadridge should continue to benefit from.”
