About FESAX
First Eagle Small Cap Opportunity Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on investing in equity securities of small- and micro-cap companies. The fund's primary objective is to achieve long-term capital growth by identifying businesses that are temporarily mispriced or possess inefficiently valued assets, often due to transitory or fixable issues. Its investment team uses fundamental, catalyst-driven research to pinpoint companies with potential for turnaround, accelerating growth, or those overlooked within the market. Typical holdings have a market capitalization under $3 billion at purchase, and the portfolio is broadly diversified, typically spanning 180 to 300 companies, reflecting a strategy designed to balance opportunity with risk management. The fund is classified within the small value category and is managed using a disciplined approach that seeks value opportunities across a wide universe of approximately 3,000 U.S. small-cap stocks. Through this approach, the fund plays a distinctive role in giving investors exposure to potentially undervalued segments of the U.S. equity market, aiming to benefit from market inefficiencies and corporate catalysts for improvement.
