Pershing Square Holdings offers a compelling double discount. The vehicle trades at an approximate 33 percent discount to the net asset value of its underlying public liquid equity portfolio.

Supported by low-cost long-term debt financing, this structure provides a wide margin of safety and powerful compounding mechanics.
