Amber Road, Inc. (AMBR), is in the Internet software & services sub-industry, where we have found a number of companies we like. We participated in Amber Road’s IPO in March 2014 and added to our position in May 2014. The company has a unique product: a proprietary database developed over the past decade that tracks the complex issues involved in international trade, including worldwide import/export controls, tariff rules, restricted party lists, and sailing schedules, in over 20 languages. It has a high quality customer base and subscription-based revenue model that provides transparency into the company’s financial health.
