Kingsford Capital Management, LLC, or the “Adviser”, is a California limited liability company
formed in 2001. The Adviser’s manager and principal owner is Michael I. Wilkins. Mr. Wilkins
is the Adviser’s portfolio manager.
The Adviser provides discretionary investment advisory services to commingled vehicles,
structured as private funds (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) including:
• Kingsford International, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“KI”);
• Kingsford Alpha Capture Fund, L.P. a Delaware limited partnership (the “ACF Onshore
Feeder”); and
• Kingsford Alpha Capture Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (the
“ACF Master Fund” and together with the ACF Onshore Feeder, “ACF”). It should be
noted that Kingsford Alpha Capture Master GP, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as
the general partner of the ACF Master Fund.
The Adviser also serves as the adviser for two separately managed accounts (collectively, the
“Separate Accounts” and together with the Funds, the “Advisory Clients”).
Each Advisory Client is governed by a limited partnership agreement, private offering
memorandum, advisory agreements
or articles of association (as applicable) that sets forth the
specific guidelines and restrictions applicable to each client (the “Governing Documents”). In
addition, investors in each Fund are provided with offering documents prior to their investment,
which also contain information regarding the intended investment program for such Fund (together
with the Governing Documents, the “Offering Documents”).
As further described in Item 8, the Adviser generally pursues a fundamental, short-selling
investment strategy and in some cases the strategy is paired with index longs with the goal of
creating a market neutral investment strategy.
The Adviser does not tailor its services to the individual needs of clients, except for any investment
restrictions imposed by Separate Account clients. The investors in the Funds have no opportunity
to select or evaluate any fund investments or strategies. The Adviser selects all fund investments
and strategies. The Adviser’s discretionary authority is limited, however, as described in Item 16.
As of December 31, 2023, the Adviser had approximately $169,991,000 in assets under
management, all on a discretionary basis.
