This quarter saw a ~12% stake increase at prices between $10.55 and $11.98. The stock is now at $10.72. Goosehead Insurance (GSHD), SOPHiA GENETICS SA (SOPH), and SBA Communications (SBAC): These very small (less than ~1% of the portfolio each) stakes were increased this quarter. Stake Decreases: Mastercard (MA): MA is currently the largest 13F stake at ~16% of the portfolio. It was first purchased in 2010 and has consistently increased since. Their overall cost-basis is ~$22 compared to the current price of ~$469 per share. Q1 2020 saw a ~9% stake increase while Q2 2022 saw a ~14% selling at prices between ~$309 and ~$379.

Moody's Corporation (MCO): The initial purchase of MCO happened in Q1 & Q2 2012 in the high-30s price-range. Since then, the position size has doubled at higher prices. Recent activity follows: Q4 2016 saw a ~15% increase at prices between $94 and $109 and that was followed with a ~22% increase the following quarter at prices between $95 and $114. There was a ~18% trimming in the last three quarters. It currently trades at ~$474 and is now the second-largest stake at ~16% of the portfolio. Note: Akre’s cost-basis on MCO is ~$39. KKR & Co.

Recent activity follows: the six years through Q3 2018 saw consistent buying almost every quarter. The share count increased over four times from 1.7M shares to 7.1M shares during that period. The buying happened at prices between $65 and $118. The stake was decreased by 9% in the last quarter at prices between ~$185 and ~$217. The stock is now at ~$220.

The position was at 825K shares as of Q1 2017 - every year had seen adjustments but overall, the stake had remained remarkably steady over that twelve-year period – the stock returned ~10x during that time. 2017 saw a ~130% stake increase at an average cost of ~$195.
