Career History
Founder
1975 - Current
Southeastern Asset Management, Inc.

Southeastern Asset Management uses a value-oriented, long-term, bottom-up stock selection process. Research is driven internally by the firm's global investment team. The firm seeks to achieve superior long-term performance by acquiring equity securities of financially strong, well-managed companies run by capable management teams, at market prices significantly below their assessment of their business value. Southeastern sells stocks when they approach their appraisal. They consider companies of all sizes, although most of their assets are invested in mid-size and larger companies. Southeastern Asset Management is an activist firm. The firm focuses on securities of companies believed to have unrecognized intrinsic value and the potential to grow.
