Starboard Value Portfolio holdings
Starboard Value is an activist hedge fund that took control of Olive Garden owner Darden Restaurants in 2014, replacing its entire board. Jeffrey Smith, the firm's chief executive and chief investment officer, founded Starboard in 2002 with Mark Mitchell inside Ramius Capital, and it went independent in 2011 after years as Cowen's hedge fund. Peter Feld joined in 2005 and, with Smith, controls the business. The firm targets US public companies it believes are deeply undervalued, and prefers to work with their management and boards on a new strategic plan, moving more forcefully if management refuses to act. Other targets have included Smithfield Foods, Yahoo and Macy's, and pension funds, government entities and other institutional investors hold accounts it manages directly.
