About Alex Roepers
Alex Roepers founded Atlantic Investment Management in 1992 and runs a concentrated, fundamentals-driven long equity book with an activist tilt, typically targeting mid-cap industrials and cyclicals where he believes operational improvement or capital-allocation changes can unlock value. The 2026 Q1 13F reflects that orientation clearly: 12 disclosed positions, top-five names accounting for roughly 70% of a $172M U.S. long book, clustered in industrials and energy services — KEX, APTV, WFRD, and OSK are characteristic picks. Roepers has periodically engaged directly with management teams, so position-building and quiet activism can precede any public signal in the filings. The 13F captures U.S. long equities only; hedges, non-U.S. holdings, and any short exposure are invisible here. The backtest excess return of roughly −14% annualized against SPY over twelve years reflects the cost of concentration and cyclical-sector bias during a period that broadly rewarded growth and megacap tech, not a flaw in reading the 13F itself.
