What this transaction means for investors
This move is a classic example of showing conviction without complacency. OneMain remains the largest position in the portfolio at roughly 12% of assets, even after a modest trim. That signals continued belief in a lender that just delivered $6.56 in full-year diluted EPS and $783 million in net income, up sharply from the prior year, while paying a $1.05 quarterly dividend and repurchasing $70 million of stock in the fourth quarter.
Managed receivables climbed to $26.3 billion, up 6% year over year, and capital generation reached $913 million for 2025. Net charge-offs sit at 7.56%, broadly stable with recent history, and the allowance ratio stands at 11.54%, suggesting reserves remain meaningful relative to risk.
Zooming out, the fund seems to favor cash generative, asset-backed businesses with disciplined underwriting, whether in consumer finance, distribution, or auto retail, and OneMain fits that mold. The stock has lagged the S&P 500 over the past year and swung sharply this quarter, but earnings power and capital returns continue to anchor the thesis.
