Kettle Hill Capital Management, LLC's disciplined, proprietary approach to investing and stock selection directs us to:



Focus on the small-capitalization stock universe: $100mm - $5B market capitalization
Identify stocks with powerful, non-consensus catalysts
Evaluate risk-reward discipline, targeting ideas with 50% upside/10% downside characteristics, within appropriate time horizon
Perform due diligence: proprietary research/surveys, interviewing multiple industry sources
Build financial models based on expectations
Initialize investment thesis, price target
Consistently monitor business trends, competitors, current market expectations
Manage positions based on achievement of target, change in thesis, stop-loss triggers, net-exposure management, short-term trading opportunities?


We seek balance between the return potential of the portfolio and the risks inherent in individual stocks, industry selection, small-cap investing, and the broader markets and economies. Our goal is to minimize downside risk and limit volatility while maximizing investor opportunities.

Kettle Hill Capital Management, LLC was founded in 2003 as an alternative investment manager. By focusing on unique risk-reward opportunities within the small-capitalization equity universe, we seek to generate superior absolute returns over the investment cycle.

We build our long-short equity portfolio on the principles of independent thinking, excellent fundamental research, and sound investment discipline to provide investors with a differentiated value investment strategy. Our investment selection takes advantage of significant risk-reward opportunities and inefficiencies in the small-capitalization universe, given:

-Limited sell-side research, banking coverage

-Liquidity constraints confining buy-side research coverage, ownership

-Meaningful catalysts, change: new products, new management, restructuring, mergers, acquisitions, IPOs, liquidity events, economic/industry dynamics

The ability to identify these unique opportunities is the product of the proprietary research that makes Kettle Hill Capital Management, LLC distinct, thereby creating rewarding opportunities for our investors.
