Strategy

East Penn Manufacturing Company’s strategy principally focuses on investing in growth prospects with a strong focus on returns in the battery areas. The goal of the investment strategy used to manage the assets of pension plans is to achieve a reasonable rate of return while taking on a manageable amount of risk, as well as to provide enough liquidity for benefit payments and portfolio management. Assets in the company’s pension plans are diversified across asset classes, investment managers, and individual holdings as per policy. It also continues to strengthen ESG-related efforts. The strategy model that the corporation has adopted is still based on the idea that accelerating general decarbonization initiatives can coexist with the production of batteries.
