Conventum – Alluvium Global Fund stated the following regarding Robert Half Inc. (NYSE:RHI) in its second quarter 2025 investor letter:

"Robert Half Inc. (NYSE:RHI), the recruitment and out placement specialist, was a small position at the start of the quarter. Despite us buying a little more, after falling 23.8% it is an even smaller position now (2.1%). There’s not much we can elaborate on from last quarter’s report. All we can do is point to what appears to be a dichotomy. Whereas the general price levels of equities does not seem to imply too much of a deterioration in economic conditions, Robert Half's share price seems to imply a prolonged downturn. Our valuation, which we think is conservative, is based on a level of maintainable earnings not much higher than its average over an extended period of 10 years. And it trades at a 27% discount to it. Despite that, we fully recognise we may be missing something, and we anxiously await an imminent update as we write this."
