“Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (NYSE:BAM) is an asset-light alternative manager that was recently spun out of Brookfield Corporation. The company invests in real estate, infrastructure, renewable power, private equity, and credit assets globally and has more than $750 billion assets under management (AUM) and $400 billion of fee-earning capital.

Here is what Baron Funds had to say about Mobileye Global Inc. (NASDAQ:MBLY) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

“During the fourth quarter, we participated in Mobileye Global Inc. (NASDAQ:MBLY)’s IPO. Mobileye is a leading ADAS and autonomous driving technologies and solutions provider with over 125 million vehicles across 800 models that have incorporated its products to date across 50-plus vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) including 13 of the top 15 global OEMs. The company was founded in 1999 and effectively pioneered the ADAS market introducing its first EyeQ system-on-chip (SoC) in 2007, enabling the vehicle to gain ADAS capabilities (such as real-time detection of vehicles, pedestrians, and lane markings) for a price of around $50. While the company remains a leader in ADAS today (with an approximate 70% market share), we believe the bigger opportunity is in leading the autonomous driving revolution. This would, in our view, significantly improve safety; meaningfully increase the vehicle utilization rate, which today is only around 4%; and dramatically grow the company’s content per vehicle. Mobileye’s SuperVision, a fully operational point-to-point assisted driving navigation solution, is the next step in the company’s progress towards autonomous driving, and it has a price tag of over 20 times that of its basic ADAS SoC. At the last Consumer Electronics Conference, the company announced a $3.5 billion backlog for its SuperVision solution across six OEMs and nine vehicle models. In addition, the company announced a $1.5 billion design win for its consumer AV program and a $3.5 billion backlog for its Mobility-as-a-Service or robotaxi solution. CEO and Founder, Amnon Shashua discussed his long-term vision in the company’s shareholder letter:

 “More than two decades ago, I founded Mobileye on the belief that computer vision technology could help prevent automobile crashes and save lives. From that simple idea, a global industry was born… By 2030, we expect Mobileye driver-assistance systems to be deployed in another 270 million vehicles globally… We believe that we will be positioned to deliver an autonomous driving solution that can enable the mass adoption of AVs [Autonomous Vehicles] including both Mobileye-powered robotaxis and consumer-owned autonomous driving vehicles. And Mobileye will be well on the way to delivering the future I first envisioned more than two decades ago.””

Here is what Baron Funds had to say about Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE:GTLS) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

“Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE:GTLS) is a leading global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment servicing multiple applications in the clean energy and industrial gas markets. The company announced a large and transformational acquisition of Howden, a company of similar size to Chart, but the market hated the deal and the stock got hammered. The concerns were that Chart would have to take on lots of debt to do the deal, the acquired business is of lower quality, and the synergy estimates seemed aggressive. Our view, after much work and consideration, is that Howden is a fine business that fits very well with Chart, increasing its end-markets, expanding the geographic reach, and doubling the “nexus of clean” opportunities to address. We believe that the synergies are identified and significant, and that the deal will be accretive. We also believe that leverage will decline quickly from the free-cash-flow and asset dispositions we expect. Chart did a large equity raise near the end of the year at a depressed price, which we participated in and more than doubled our position in the stock. We believe Chart is a best-in-class industrial compounder focused on growing clean energy end-markets.

We added to our position in Chart Industries, Inc. during the quarter. Chart is a leader in cryogenic technology, process, and storage equipment sold into industrial gas and clean and traditional energy end-markets. We took advantage of a significant drop in share price when the company announced a $4.4 billion merger with private company Howden, a global leader in compressors and blowers, that approximately doubles Chart’s revenue and EBITDA. The stock sold off as the unexpected deal is the largest in the company’s history, which added integration risk, increased leverage at a time of elevated rates, and required the company to issue equity, all in the face of heightened macroeconomic uncertainty heading into 2023…” (Click here to read the full text)
