First Houston Capital is a fee-only registered investment adviser based in Houston, Texas. The firm serves high net worth individuals, their retirement plans, foundations, and other clients by managing portfolios comprised solely of stocks and bonds, applying a value-oriented approach aimed at owning proven, profitable, and predictable companies. Its investment philosophy emphasizes cash-dividend-capable businesses with durable market positions and barriers to entry, while avoiding highly cyclical equities and speculative assets; a typical holding period is described as long-term, with sales triggered by over-pricing, unmet objectives, or a position exceeding 5% of a portfolio. The company operates within the investment management industry and positions itself as a fiduciary advisor focused on professional asset management for a select client base, with recent activity noted in an investment in U.S. Bancorp. Based in Houston, the firm identifies itself as serving a niche market that values steady returns through established equities rather than speculative opportunities.
