Aoris hallmark

Quality First, Value Investing.

We invest in 15 exceptional businesses worldwide, using a focused, long-term strategy grounded in quality, valuation discipline, and business resilience.

We invest with a business owner mindset. As owners, we participate in the growth in intrinsic value of durable, highly profitable, market-leading businesses where we consider the risk of a disappointing outcome to be low. We aim to deliver returns of 8-12% p.a. after fees over a typical 5–7-year market cycle.

About Aoris

What’s important to us

Quality

Quality to us is about investing in highly profitable, market-leading, growing businesses. They create wealth for shareholders by earning a sustainably high ROIC and reinvesting capital at attractive incremental rates of return.

Value

We believe the price we pay matters. That's why we look to own high-quality, growing businesses that are at, or below, their intrinsic value today.

Resilience

The businesses we own are resilient to economic stress and to competitive challenges, and adaptable to the changing needs of their customers. Time makes them stronger.
