HUDSON BAY CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LP


Hudson Bay Capital Management LP (“Hudson Bay Capital”1), a Delaware limited partnership, is an alternative asset management firm founded in 2005 by Sander Gerber. Mr. Gerber is Hudson Bay Capital’s principal owner and the managing member of Hudson Bay Capital’s general partner. Hudson Bay Capital provides investment management services on a discretionary basis to privately offered investment vehicles, and from time to time may also provide investment management services to one or more separately managed accounts, although Hudson Bay Capital does not currently provide management services to any managed account. Hudson Bay Capital’s main office is located in New York, NY. The office of Hudson Bay Capital’s affiliate, Hudson Bay Capital UK LLP (“HBC UK”), is located in London, United Kingdom. HBC UK’s advisory personnel have been seconded to Mirabella Financial Services LLP (“Mirabella”), which serves as a sub-manager to Hudson Bay Capital with respect to Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd. and HB Fund LLC. Mirabella is authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. As of February 28, 2019, Hudson Bay Capital managed client assets with a net asset value of slightly over $3.3 billion, all on a discretionary basis. Hudson Bay Capital currently manages three Fund products: (i) a multi-strategy Fund, comprised of Hudson Bay Fund LP (operating primarily for the benefit of taxable U.S. investors and certain tax-exempt U.S. investors), Hudson Bay International Fund Ltd. (operating primarily for the benefit of non-U.S. investors and certain tax-exempt U.S. investors) and Hudson Bay International Levered Fund Ltd. (operating primarily for the benefit of non-U.S. investors and certain tax-exempt U.S. investors who wish to invest on a more levered basis) (along with their affiliates, the “Multi-Strat Funds”); (ii) Hudson Bay Cap Structure Arbitrage Enhanced Fund LP (operating primarily for the benefit of taxable U.S. investors and certain tax-exempt U.S. investors) (along with its affiliate, Hudson Bay Capital Structure Opportunities Master Fund Ltd., the “Capital Structure Fund”); and (iii) Hudson Bay MLP Fund LP Fund (the “MLP Fund”), a co-investment vehicle designed to invest and divest in one specific investment alongside an affiliate of Hudson Bay Fund LP. Hudson Bay Fund LP, Hudson Bay International Fund Ltd., Hudson Bay International Levered Fund Ltd., the Capital Structure Fund and the MLP Fund (and where applicable, their affiliates) are each referred to herein as a “Fund” and collectively, as the “Funds” or the “Clients.” The Multi-Strat Funds and the Capital Structure Fund are currently open to new investors; the MLP is no longer accepting new subscriptions.
The Multi-Strat Funds
The Multi-Strat Funds are organized in a master-feeder structure, whereby: (i) Hudson Bay Fund LP (the “Onshore Fund”) invests all of its investable assets in Hudson Bay 1 References herein to Hudson Bay Capital, include Hudson Bay Capital’s affiliates, where appropriate. Master Fund Ltd. (the “Master Fund”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, and HB Fund LLC (“HB Fund”), a Delaware limited liability company; and (ii) Hudson Bay International Fund Ltd. (the “Offshore Fund”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, and Hudson Bay International Levered Fund Ltd. (the “Levered Fund”), also a Cayman Islands exempted company, each invests all of its investable assets in the Master Fund (through Hudson Bay Intermediate Fund Ltd. (the “Intermediate Fund”), a Cayman Islands exempted company). The Levered Fund invests its assets on a levered basis, by employing leverage at the Levered Fund level. Hudson Bay Capital has been managing its multi-strategy product since 2006. Assets of the Onshore Fund, the Offshore Fund and the Levered Fund (collectively, the “Feeder Funds”) are pooled in the Master Fund in order to concentrate credit status and obtain negotiating leverage with counterparties, while also achieving administrative economies of scale, eliminating the need for trade allocations and simplifying ongoing operations. Investments that would be tax disadvantageous to the Offshore Fund or the Levered Fund (for example, originating debt obligations such as loans, notes and other debt instruments or obligations), as well as investments that Hudson Bay Capital believes are not practical or otherwise in the best interest of the Multi-Strat Funds to make through the Master Fund (“Onshore Investments”), may be made by the HB Fund, and, in such cases, they may not be made by the Master Fund. The HB Fund may invest excess cash not invested directly in its portfolio in the Master Fund. Although the Master Fund currently implements its own investing and trading strategies directly, both the Master Fund and the HB Fund also invest through a variety of other legal entities (“Trading Vehicles”), including one or more other funds managed by Hudson Bay Capital. Hudson Bay Capital Associates LLC (the “General Partner”) is the general partner of the Onshore Fund.2 References herein to the Multi-Strat Funds include the Feeder Funds, the HB Fund, the Master Fund and/or any other subsidiary trading vehicles, as the context requires.3 The investment objective of the Multi-Strat Funds is to target traditional and non- traditional sources of alpha by employing a diverse set of catalyst-driven absolute return strategies that are intended to be uncorrelated to each other and to the major indices. In deploying their trading and investing strategies, the Multi-Strat Funds expect to hold both long and short positions in a broad range of debt and equity securities, derivatives and investments on a global basis. Hudson Bay Capital currently categorizes its strategies into the following four groups in its reports to investors: (i) event-driven/merger arbitrage (including long/short equity); (ii) volatility trading; (iii) convertibles; and (iv) credit. 2 The Master Fund serves as the managing member of a separate, two-member, limited liability company, HB Measure LLC (“HBM”). In its capacity as managing member, the Master Fund has delegated all investment discretion for these entities to Hudson Bay Capital. Accordingly, Hudson Bay Capital exercises all investment discretion over HBM. HBM is not “offered” to investors and serves primarily as a special purpose vehicle for a single Master Fund investment. 3 Throughout this Brochure, references are made to one or more Multi-Strat Funds engaging in investment/trading activity. As set forth above, currently, only the Master Fund and HB Fund are permitted to make direct investments into portfolio companies, and nothing herein shall be read to suggest otherwise. However, there are no material limitations on the instruments, strategies, markets or countries in which the Multi-Strategy Funds may invest. The strategies in which the Multi-Strat Funds invest are constantly evolving and new strategies may appear within the Multi-Strat Funds’ portfolio with some regularity. Although the functional currency of the Multi-Strat Funds is in U.S. Dollars, the Offshore Fund offers separate tranches of Class A shares (the “Foreign Currency Shares”), each of which has the same general provisions as the other Class A shares, but whose functional currencies are in the Japanese Yen and the British Pound, respectively. The Foreign Currency Shares’ will be issued, reported and quoted in their respective currency denominations, the Multi-Strat Management and Performance Fees (as those terms are defined below) will be calculated in their respective currency denominations and cash payments on redemption will be paid in their respective denominations; notwithstanding that their par value shall be U.S. Dollars. Hudson Bay Capital generally expects to cause the currency exposure of the Foreign Currency Shares to be hedged to minimize, to the extent reasonably practicable, fluctuations in the value of the Foreign Currency Shares arising from fluctuations in the applicable currency exchange rate and expects to engage in transactions, including the purchase and sale of spot and forward contracts, currency options and currency futures contracts to manage U.S. Dollar-foreign currency risks. The expenses of currency conversions and the expenses, profits or losses of currency hedging activities undertaken in relation to the Foreign Currency Shares incurred by the Master Fund will be allocated to the Foreign Currency Shares. Redemption proceeds of the Foreign Currency Shares will generally be paid on a date following the calculation of the net asset value of the Foreign Currency Shares for the month in which the redemption occurs, but generally no later than 5 business days following the month end of the month after the month as of which the Foreign Currency Shares may be redeemed (“the Redemption Payment Date”). Side Letters The Multi-Strat Funds and, in certain cases, Hudson Bay Capital, have the discretion to waive or modify the application of, or grant special or more favorable rights with respect to, the terms or provisions applicable to investment in the Multi-Strat Funds to the extent permitted by applicable law. Such terms may relate to certain withdrawal rights, fees, portfolio level information rights or different participation in profits and losses of certain securities (“Favorable Terms”), or other matters. To effect such waivers or modifications or the grant of any special or more Favorable Terms or any other terms, the Multi-Strat Funds may create additional classes, sub-classes, tranches or series of interests for certain investors that provide for these differing rights. Certain side letters may enable certain investors to receive reports and have access to information regarding the Multi-Strat Funds’ portfolio that might only be available to other investors upon direct request from such investor. Accordingly, certain investors may be privy to certain information regarding the Multi-Strat Funds that may not be available to other investors and such investors may make investment decisions with respect to their investment in the Multi- Strat Funds based on such information, including requesting redemptions. Although certain investors may invest with different material terms, the Multi-Strat Funds and Hudson Bay Capital will only offer such terms if they believe other investors will not be materially disadvantaged. The Multi-Strat Funds or Hudson Bay Capital, as applicable, may create additional classes, sub-classes, tranches or series of interests and enter into side letters without notice to, or consent of, other investors. Favorable Terms granted to certain investors (other than current and former members and employees of Hudson Bay Capital, their family members and/or related entities) will be offered to all existing investors with an equal or greater investment in the Multi-Strat Funds; provided that (i) such terms or conditions were not offered based on an investor’s special regulatory, tax or other particular status; and (ii) an investor electing to accept such favorable terms or conditions also agrees to be bound by any conditions, restrictions, limitations or obligations imposed on an investor in connection with its investment in the Multi-Strat Funds. Other rights and investment terms that do not constitute Favorable Terms may not be offered to such other existing investors. Individual Investor Investment Restrictions Certain investors (“SRI Investors”) that are subject to a “socially responsible” or similar investment mandate which precludes them from participating in profits or losses attributable to certain securities and other instruments (“Restricted Investments”) of companies (“Restricted Companies”) have entered into side letter agreements with the Offshore Fund and Hudson Bay Capital (and may enter into similar relationships in the future with the other Feeder Funds, including the Onshore Fund) whereby Hudson Bay Capital uses reasonable efforts to allocate profits and losses attributable to such Restricted Companies away from the SRI Investors’ shares (the “SRI Shares”) and to other investors (“non-SRI Investors”) who are not SRI Investors (the “Restricted Investment Reallocation”). In cases where a single investment thesis or idea is manifested through a group of positions, including related hedges, one of which is an investment in a Restricted Company, as a general matter, Hudson Bay Capital will treat the entire group of investments as a Restricted Investment even if certain of the positions in the group are not securities or other instruments of Restricted Companies. In certain cases, where this general rule results in outcomes Hudson Bay Capital deems suboptimal, alternate rules may be applied. Because Restricted Investments may include hedges (internal and otherwise) in the Investment Manager’s discretion, the Restricted Investments Reallocation may result in a different allocation of profits and losses to the SRI Investors and the non-SRI Investors than would have occurred had there been no hedges (internal or otherwise). Hudson Bay Capital retains complete discretion in determining the methodology used to determine the Restricted Investments Reallocation. The SRI Shares are not managed as a segregated, or even separate portfolio; i.e., the performance of the SRI Shares will be derived, inter alia, by removing the profits and losses associated with the Restricted Investments from the overall profits and losses associated with the Offshore Fund’s portfolio. As a consequence, other shares of the Offshore Fund may be adversely (or positively) affected by Hudson Bay Capital’s compliance with the specific investment criteria applicable to the SRI Shares to the extent such investment criteria cause the other shares to have different exposures and weightings than would otherwise be applicable to the Offshore Fund’s portfolio in the absence of the SRI Shares. PM Tranches Certain of the Multi-Strat Funds may also issue tranches and/or classes of shares/interests corresponding to the investment strategy (or a sub-strategy to the extent there are multiple investment strategies managed by a particular portfolio manager) pursued by a particular portfolio manager (the “PM Tranches”). Generally, only the portfolio manager associated with a PM Tranche, members of such portfolio manager’s team, a family member of such persons and/or trusts or other entities for their benefit and certain other persons associated with Hudson Bay Capital will be eligible to subscribe for a PM Tranche.
The Capital Structure Fund
Hudson Bay Cap Structure Arbitrage Enhanced Fund LP (the “Capital Structure Feeder Fund”), a Delaware limited partnership, invests substantially all of its assets through a “master-feeder” fund structure in Hudson Bay Capital Structure Opportunities Master Fund Ltd. (the “Capital Structure Master Fund”), a Cayman Islands exempted company (together, as previously defined, the “Capital Structure Fund”).4 Hudson Bay Capital may form one or more additional feeder funds in the future to invest in the Capital Structure Master Fund. The General Partner is the general partner of the Capital Structure Fund. The Capital Structure Fund’s investment objective is to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns by investing and trading in debt, equity, options, derivate contracts (including credit derivatives) and other securities and instruments, as well as those instruments that Hudson Bay Capital believes are appropriate to hedge certain exposures or positions in the portfolio. Hudson Bay Capital also will from time to time cause the Capital Structure Fund to make opportunistic investments in other types of securities and transactions. The Capital Structure Fund pursues its investment objective and strategies primarily in the United States, but may also invest on a global basis. The Capital Structure Fund will implement a number of different strategies in its portfolio, including but not limited to convertible arbitrage, relative value, capital structure arbitrage and other credit-related strategies. Although the Capital Structure Fund’s overall focus will be on convertible and other equity-linked and related investments as well as other debt, there are no material limitations on the markets, strategies, instruments or countries in which Hudson Bay Capital may trade on behalf of the Capital Structure Fund, and the Capital Structure Fund is not subject to any specific diversification requirements with respect to the issuers, 4 As the Capital Structure Feeder Fund may make investments or enter into transactions directly or indirectly through the Capital Structure Master Fund or other vehicles, references to the term “Capital Structure Fund” in this Brochure should be understood to mean the Capital Structure Feeder Fund, the Capital Structure Master Fund and/or any other vehicle through which the Capital Structure Feeder Fund makes investments or enters into transactions. product types or amount of leverage that may be incorporated in its portfolio, except as may be dictated by applicable laws. The Capital Structure Fund uses leverage, which will be substantial, but there is no assurance that the desired level of leverage will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Within the Capital Structure Fund’s overall focus on investments in convertible and other equity-linked and related Securities, the Capital Structure Fund’s portfolio may from time to time be concentrated, possibly materially, in a particular market, strategy, instrument type or country. On an ongoing basis, the Capital Structure Fund’s portfolio evolves as new market sectors, instruments, strategies and techniques are incorporated by Hudson Bay Capital and others are discontinued or modified. The Capital Structure Fund’s portfolio and its performance can be expected to differ materially over time. Side Letters The Capital Structure Fund and, in certain cases, Hudson Bay Capital, have the discretion, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to waive or modify the application of, or grant special or more favorable rights with respect to, the terms or provisions applicable to investment in the Capital Structure Fund, and have done so. Such terms may relate to withdrawal rights, fees, portfolio level information rights or different participation in profits and losses of certain securities (“Favorable Rights”) or other matters. To effect such waivers or modifications or the grant of any special or more Favorable Rights or any other terms, the Capital Structure Fund may create additional classes, sub-classes, tranches or series of interests for certain investors that provide for these differing rights. Although certain investors may invest with different material terms, the Capital Structure Fund and Hudson Bay Capital generally will only offer such terms if they reasonably believe other investors in the Capital Structure Fund will not be materially disadvantaged. The Capital Structure Fund may create additional classes, sub-classes, tranches or series of interests, and the Capital Structure Fund, or in certain cases Hudson Bay Capital, may enter into side letters with investors without notice to, or consent of, other investors.
The MLP Fund
The MLP Fund, a Delaware limited partnership, is a special purpose, co-investment vehicle designed to invest and divest in one specific investment alongside HBC MLP LLC (“HBC LLC”), which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Onshore Fund. The General Partner is the general partner of the MLP Fund. The MLP Fund is no longer accepting new subscriptions. HBC LLC and the MLP Fund have acquired convertible preferred interests in a security of a certain master limited partnership (the “MLP”), as well as the underlying units of the MLP and any payments or distributions of any kind made pursuant to the MLP security (the “Asset”) targeted by Hudson Bay Capital. HBC LLC has invested and will divest in the Asset at the same time (to the extent reasonably practical to do so) and on the same terms as the MLP Fund. The MLP Fund may purchase, sell or enter into a variety of financial instruments in order to hedge its investment in the Asset (the “Hedging Trades”). The MLP Fund does not expect to acquire assets other than the Asset and in connection with the Hedging Trades. The MLP Fund may retain cash or cash equivalents to meet margin calls or potential margin calls. Side Letters The MLP Fund and Hudson Bay Capital have entered into certain agreements with certain of the MLP Fund investors that supplement and/or modify the terms of the MLP Fund’s Confidential Private Placement Memorandum and Limited Partnership Agreement. While the terms applicable to MLP Fund investors may differ, Hudson Bay Capital does not believe that such differences materially disadvantage any MLP Fund investor. please register to get more info
