Quarterly PSN Top Guns List published by YCharts identifies best-in-class separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies.
Orlando, FL — September 3, 2026 — Abacus FCF Advisors announced today it has been named to the celebrated PSN Top Guns List of best performing separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies for Q2 2026. The highly anticipated list, published by YCharts, remains one of the most important references for investors and asset managers.
“On behalf of YCharts, I want to extend my congratulations to this quarter’s PSN Top Guns winners for their outstanding performance during a particularly challenging period for investment managers,” says President and CEO of YCharts, Sean Brown.
“The second quarter tested even seasoned professionals, as markets shifted from early optimism to a more challenging environment that caught many portfolios off guard. What distinguishes these winners is their disciplined approach and ability to navigate uncertainty with conviction. They positioned portfolios with precision and delivered standout results when it counted most.”
“As we look ahead, we’re more excited than ever about the future of the SMA space. Our PSN Top Guns winners are leading the way in demonstrating what’s possible when skill meets the right investment vehicle. We’re committed to supporting this growth and helping investors and advisors connect with the exceptional talent that can deliver meaningful outcomes for their clients.”
The Abacus FCF Leaders Strategy is a systematic equity strategy that seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in U.S. companies demonstrating superior Free Cash Flow Return on Invested Capital (FCF-ROIC). The strategy employs a proprietary multi-factor model using cash-flow-based inputs rather than earnings-based metrics to reduce exposure to accounting discretion. The strategy is available through separately managed accounts and as an ETF ($ABFL: Abacus FCF Leaders ETF).
Through a combination of PSN’s proprietary performance screens, the PSN Top Guns awards products in six proprietary categories in over 75 universes based on continued performance over time.
Abacus FCF Advisors’ FCF Leaders strategy earned a PSN Top Guns 1-Quarter award in the All Cap Core Equity Universe, meaning the strategy had one of the top ten returns for the quarter in its respective universe.
Manager Commentary
“Quality was the weakest global factor in the first quarter of 2026 and rebounded to outperform its parent benchmark in the second — a reminder of how quickly factor leadership rotates and why we do not try to time it. Our process does not change with the regime. We own companies that convert capital into cash, and we let that discipline compound.
In the current cycle, capital spending tied to artificial intelligence is consuming an extraordinary share of operating cash flow across the largest technology platforms. Free cash flow return on invested capital is how we separate the businesses funding that build-out from durable earnings power from those funding it with their balance sheets. The strategy’s top-ten return in the All-Cap Core Equity Universe this quarter is evidence the market is rewarding that distinction.”

It is not an endorsement, recommendation, or evaluation of Abacus FCF Advisors or any of its strategies by PSN or YCharts, and it should not be interpreted as an indication of future performance. Rankings reflect only those firms and products that elect to report to PSN and are therefore not representative of the full universe of available strategies.
