Growth & Income Fund

BUFDX | BUIDX

STRONG COMPANIES, SMART VALUATIONS, SUSTAINABLE RETURN POTENTIAL

We are focused on buying dividend-paying companies that have sustainable competitive advantages, strong return on capital and free cash flow, conservative balance sheets, and great management teams.

We seek to buy these companies at reasonable valuations and believe that holding them for the long term will generate favorable risk-adjusted returns in the Buffalo Growth & Income Fund.”
