Jefferies Financial Group is a full-service investment banking and capital markets firm that was founded in 1962. After nearly 30 years of focusing on institutional trading services, it entered the investment banking industry in the early 1990s, which ultimately grew into the core business. In 2013, Jefferies merged with Leucadia, a manufacturing-focused holding company. Since the merger, Jefferies became the core of the combined business as the bulk of the legacy portfolio was sold off and the parent company was renamed to match the subsidiary. Within the investment banking landscape, Jefferies predominately serves the North American middle market and has captured considerable market share over the past decade.

What the manager wrote
I view JEF as having 4 parts: a broker/dealer in bonds and equities, an investment bank, an asset manager and a collection of 'extra assets'. The tangible book value of the first 3 parts ('core') is approx. $21 per share and the value of the 'extra assets' I believe exceeds $10 per share. About 3 years ago, JEF embarked on a process to dispose of its extra assets and refocus on its core business. Since then JEF has returned over $3.4Bn to shareholders through dividends and accreditive share repurchases. I expect this process to continue with a conclusion sometime in the next 24 months.
