Fund recognized as Best Short High Yield Fund in the United States

 

Jacksonville Beach, FL —Intrepid Capital Management is pleased to announce that the Intrepid Income Fund (ICMUX) has been named the winner of the 2026 LSEG Lipper Fund Awards, United States, for Best Short High Yield Fund for both the five-year and ten-year periods.

 

The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards recognize funds that have excelled in delivering consistently strong risk-adjusted performance relative to peers. The awards are based on Lipper’s proprietary quantitative methodology, which evaluates funds on a risk-adjusted basis over multiple time horizons.

 

“This recognition is a tremendous honor for our team and a meaningful validation of the discipline that has guided the strategy for many years,” said Hunter Hayes, CFA, Chief Investment Officer and Portfolio Manager at Intrepid Capital. “Our focus has always been on delivering attractive income while maintaining a conservative risk profile through shorter duration securities and careful credit selection. Winning Lipper awards for both the five- and ten-year periods speaks to the consistency of that approach across very different market environments.”

 

Hayes added, “The short high yield universe remains a relatively underfollowed corner of the credit markets. We believe that disciplined security selection within this niche continues to offer compelling opportunities for investors seeking income with a focus on capital preservation.”

Mark Travis, CEO and Founder of Intrepid Capital, said the award reflects the strength of the firm’s long-standing investment philosophy.

This recognition from LSEG Lipper reinforces the value of that philosophy and the consistency with which the team has executed it over time.”

 

Launched in 2007, the Intrepid Income Fund is managed by a seasoned investment team that includes Hunter Hayes, CFA; Mark Travis; Joe Van Cavage, CFA; and Matt Parker, CFA, CPA. The team has worked closely together on the strategy since 2019.

Based in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, the firm manages approximately $1.7 billion in assets under management and prides itself on its independent, off-Wall Street approach to investing in less scrutinized areas of the market.

Interest Rate Risk: When interest rates rise, the value of previously-issued bonds and other debt securities decreases.  An increase in interest rates typically causes a decline in the value of the debt securities in which the Fund may invest. 

The value of your investment in the Fund may change in response to changes in the credit ratings of the Fund’s portfolio of debt securities.   

The risk of investing in bonds and debt securities whose issuers may not be able to make interest and principal payments. 

The risk of loss on investments in high yield securities or “junk bonds.” These securities are rated below investment grade, are usually less liquid, have greater credit risk than investment grade debt securities, and their market values tend to be volatile.
