Hawk Ridge Capital Management LP spent the first quarter of 2025 quietly building bigger bets across a range of industries. The firm added hundreds of thousands of shares in companies spanning financial technology, security hardware, staffing, and construction, according to Watchlist News.
The largest dollar moves were in Fidelity National Information Services and Allegion PLC. Together, those two positions alone are now worth nearly $239 million. The buying spree signals a deliberate push into diversified, mid-to-large-cap names.
FIS and Allegion Lead Hawk Ridge's Biggest New Bets
Hawk Ridge added 640,200 shares of Fidelity National Information Services in Q1, bringing its total to 2,597,980 shares. That position is now worth about $121.9 million, according to Watchlist News. It ranks as the fund's seventh-largest holding and makes up about 4.4% of the portfolio.
The fund also bought 198,800 more shares of Allegion PLC, lifting its stake by 32.9% to 802,807 shares. That position is valued at roughly $116.6 million and sits at eighth in the portfolio. Combined, FIS and Allegion now represent a major slice of the fund's overall exposure.
Robert Half Stake More Than Doubles in a Single Quarter
The boldest move by share count was in Robert Half Inc. Hawk Ridge added 1,023,000 shares in Q1, a 134.2% jump. The firm now holds 1,785,400 shares worth about $45.35 million, according to Watchlist News. The position ranks 23rd in the fund's portfolio.
Robert Half is a staffing and professional services company. The heavy buying suggests Hawk Ridge sees value in the sector despite ongoing uncertainty in the labor market. The position now accounts for about 1.6% of the fund's total holdings.
Insperity and MYR Group Round Out Portfolio Additions
Hawk Ridge opened a fresh position in Insperity, Inc., buying 1,464,781 shares worth about $39.6 million. The stake now ranks 26th in the portfolio and makes up roughly 1.4% of holdings, according to Watchlist News. Insperity provides HR and workforce solutions to small and mid-sized businesses.
MYR Group, a specialty electrical contractor, also saw its stake grow. Hawk Ridge added 18,748 shares, a 16.9% increase, bringing the total to 129,945 shares valued at about $36.7 million. That position ranks 28th and represents about 1.3% of the fund.
A Pattern of Selective Diversification Across Multiple Sectors
Hawk Ridge was not just buying. The firm trimmed its position in Seagate Technology by 13.7%, selling 27,604 shares, according to Watchlist News. It also added a brand-new stake in RB Global, purchasing 396,700 shares to make it the fund's 27th-largest holding.
The quarter's moves span financial services, security products, staffing, HR tech, and industrial contracting. That range suggests a selective, sector-agnostic strategy. Hawk Ridge appears to be hunting for undervalued mid-cap names while trimming positions where it sees less upside.
