Mar Vista U.S. Quality Strategy stated the following regarding Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:BRK-B) in its second quarter 2025 investor letter:

"Despite hitting all-time highs early in the second quarter, Berkshire Hathaway Inc.'s (NYSE:BRK-B) stock declined 9% for the three-month period. Warren Buffett’s surprise announcement at the company’s shareholder meeting that he would retire at year-end marked the beginning of the stock sell-off. Berkshire was built intentionally to outlast Mr. Buffett so the formal announcement of his retirement doesn’t change our perspective on the business. While there may be subtle changes, we expect Greg Abel will maintain Berkshire’s core investment and capital allocation principles. The new CEO will have substantial dry powder to deploy with almost $340 billion in cash and an additional $40b in annual free cash flow. We would expect Mr. Abel to instill a material dividend policy to provide an outlet for excess cash. Stock repurchases are likely to remain opportunistic depending on Berkshire’s stock valuation relative to his and the Board’s estimate of fair value. Berkshire’s ability to deploy capital at the most opportune times, when valuations are cheap and capital is scarce, will remain an important feature with or without Buffett."
