TAMID Portfolio Review

TAMID has implemented a systematic portfolio review process. To date, the number of securities in the portfolio has increased to 80. The high number of securities necessitates a monitoring process that incorporates all TAMID chapters.

Step 1

Receiving Assignments

Each chapter has been assigned two to three securities in the portfolio that you are responsible for covering in the review.

Step 2

Portfolio Review

Your chapter will submit a report that recommends a hold or a sell position. An example report has been provided and is discussed in more detail below. Each of the reviews are required to include security details, recent developments, a recommendation, a valuation (DCF and comps), financial summary and KPIs, and the three financial statements.

Step 3

Feedback

A summary report will be sent to all chapters and TAMID stakeholders containing information on the portfolio’s returns, chapters’ reviews, and stock pitches that qualify to have their trades executed. By reporting this information, you will have more visibility into how the portfolio is performing.

Key Assessment Criteria

Does the review include relevant recent developments? Do the recent developments indicate whether the company is on a positive or negative trajectory? Is it clear that the review creators read all the relevant documentation, including press releases, earnings calls, investor presentations, and SEC filings? Are all the required elements specified by the template and best practices above included in the review?

Is the recommendation supported by robust qualitative and quantitative evidence? Is the conclusion logical based on recent developments and other information contained in the report? Is the price target supported by a high-quality valuation analysis?

Is the review formatted well? Are the financial statements spread properly in Excel? If a third-party was reviewing the report, would the formatting detract from the message by conveying that the report was made with a lack of care?

Key Links and Information

These templates are built in Microsoft Word. You should not use Google Docs to edit them. As you will see on the first page, Google Docs has changed the formatting due to compatibility issues. Download the files as .docx documents and edit them using Microsoft Word and Excel.
