Our read on DSTL
CValue, redefined by cash. DSTL screens large-cap America for low debt and steady cash flows, then buys the cheapest survivors on Distillate's normalized free-cash-flow measure rather than on P/E or book value.
The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Distillate U.S. Fundamental Stability & Value Index.
Why people hold it
- Values companies on normalized free cash flow against enterprise value instead of P/E or book value, an approach aimed at a market full of intangible-heavy businesses.distillatecapital.com
- Quality gate comes first: it starts from roughly 500 profitable large caps, then screens out high debt and unstable cash flows before valuation enters the picture.distillatecapital.com
- Positions are weighted by free cash flow generation and rebalanced quarterly, so size follows cash produced rather than market cap. Distributions are paid quarterly.distillatecapital.com
- Live since 2018 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, so the process has a real record rather than a backtest.
Worth knowing
- At 0.39% it costs more than plain-vanilla value funds such as VONV (0.06%) and VYM (0.04%). You are paying for the cash-flow research.
- The benchmark is Distillate's own index, so outcomes ride on one firm's proprietary cash-flow model rather than a widely used public rulebook.distillatecapital.com
- Concentrated by design: a slim slice of the large-cap universe, weighted by cash flow, so sector mix can look very different from the S&P 500.distillatecapital.com
