We sold ExamWorks Group, Inc. (NYSE:EXAM) in the quarter after it announced that it would be acquired by a private equity firm. This was another one of the stocks that had gone down dramatically in 2015 (it was down 36% in 2015 and it was a significant holding in the Fund), which rebounded sharply in 2016 (up 32% for the year to the acquisition price). Holding the investment during this period was possible only because we had such confidence in our fundamental research.
