interest of equal value in Darlington Partners, L.P.
Our investment decisions and advice with respect to the Funds are subject to each Fund’s investment
objectives and guidelines, as set forth in its respective “Offering Documents.”
We seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term and preserve capital by avoiding
permanent impairments. We aim to achieve these goals primarily through our Funds’ ownership of a
concentrated portfolio of investments in high-quality businesses purchased at discounted valuations that
provide a significant margin of safety. A small portion of Fund assets may be invested in a more
opportunistic fashion to take advantage of shorter- term opportunities and asymmetric risk-reward
opportunities. The Funds primarily invest in equity securities of public and private companies.
We do not currently participate in any Wrap Fee Programs.
As of December 31, 2023, Darlington Partners has regulatory assets under management of approximately
$2.157B, all managed on a discretionary basis.
