ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
This statement relates to the common stock, no par value, of Winmark
Corporation, a Minnesota corporation ("Winmark" or the "Company" or the
"Issuer"). The address of the Company's principal executive offices is 4200
Dahlberg Drive, Suite 100, Golden Valley, MN 55422.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
(a) This Amendment to Schedule 13D is being filed by Farnam Street
Partners, L.P., a Minnesota Limited Partnership (the "Fund"), and by its General
Partner, Farnam Street Capital, Inc., a Minnesota corporation ("FSC"). Mr.
Raymond E. Cabillot is Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and
Mr. Peter O. Haeg is President and Secretary of FSC. The Fund and FSC are making
this filing because they are the beneficial owner, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), of more than five
percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
(b) The principal office of the Fund, FSC and Messrs. Cabillot and Haeg
is 3033 Excelsior Boulevard, Suite 300, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55416.
(c) The Fund was organized in January 1998 as a Minnesota Limited
Partnership. FSC is a Minnesota corporation. Its principal business activities
involve investing in equity securities of publicly traded companies, as well as
other types of securities.
(d) - (e) During the last five years, neither the Fund, FSC nor the
principals of its General Partner have been convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) nor have the parties
been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
competent jurisdiction as a result of which such individual was or is subject to
a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or
prohibiting, or mandating activity subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
The aggregate purchase price of the purchases identified in response to Item
5(c) was $880,252.56. All such purchases were paid for with investment proceeds
from various limited partnership interests. All securities identified in
response to Item 5(c) were acquired by open market purchases.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
All of the shares of the Company owned by the Reporting Person were, at the time
of their purchase, acquired for investment purposes in the ordinary course of
business. FSC makes investments in companies that it believes are undervalued
and represent an attractive investment opportunity. FSC may from time to time
purchase additional shares of the Company's stock or dispose of all or some of
the shares.
Except as set forth in this Item 4, FSC has no present plans or proposal that
relates to or would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a)
through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. FSC intends to review its investment in
the Issuer on a continuing basis and, depending on various factors, including,
without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the
price levels of the common stock, conditions in the securities markets,
conditions in the industry and general economic conditions, may in the future
take such actions with respect to its investment in the Issuer as it deems
appropriate including, without limitation, purchasing additional shares of
common stock or selling some or all of its shares or to change its intention
with respect to any and all matters to in Item 4.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) FSC manages the Fund and a separate account which together
beneficially own 367,325 shares of common stock of the Issuer, representing 6.2%
of the shares outstanding. The Fund beneficially owns 261,253 shares of the
outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, representing approximately 4.4% of the
Common Stock (based upon 5,964,796 shares outstanding on November 3, 2004, as
reported in the Issuer's most recent 10-Q filed on November 9, 2004).
(b) The Fund does not share voting and dispositive power with respect
to any shares. However, Messrs. Cabillot and Haeg, as officers of FSC, may be
deemed to have beneficial ownership of the shares reported in this Schedule 13D
by virtue of their shared voting and dispositive power. However, they disclaim
beneficial ownership and have no direct pecuniary interest in the shares.
(c) TRANSACTIONS WITHIN THE LAST 60 DAYS OR SINCE THE LAST FILING.
