Overview

  • SRH Total Return Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is a non-diversified closed-end fund with a total return investment objective. To achieve its objective, the Fund utilizes a bottom-up, value-driven investment process to identify securities of good quality businesses trading below estimated intrinsic value. The intent of this process is to identify investment opportunities that will provide attractive returns over a long holding period. By doing this, the Fund seeks to keep portfolio turnover low, which the sub-adviser believes helps to minimize associated trading costs. The Fund maintains a high level of investment flexibility and has the ability to invest in equity and fixed income securities of domestic and international companies without limitation to a company's market capitalization.

  • The Fund is managed by its investment adviser, Paralel Advisors LLC. SRH Advisors, LLC serves as the Fund's sub-adviser. Joel Looney, CFP and Jacob Hemmer, CFA of the sub-adviser serve as the Fund's portfolio managers and, with assistance from other advisory personnel, are jointly responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's assets.

  • The Fund is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "STEW".

Note to Stockholders on Concentration of Investments

The Fund's management feels that it is important that stockholders be aware that the Fund is highly concentrated in a small number of positions. Concentrating investments in a fewer number of securities may involve a degree of risk that is greater than a fund which has less concentrated investments spread out over a greater number of securities. In particular, the Fund is highly concentrated in Berkshire Hathaway Inc., which, in addition to other business risks, is dependent on Warren Buffett for major investment decisions and all major capital allocation decisions. If Mr. Buffett were no longer able to fulfill his responsibilities to Berkshire Hathaway Inc., the effect on the value of the Fund's position in Berkshire Hathaway Inc. could be materially negative.
