Manager believes high yield credit is fundamentally strong but valuations are tight, particularly in higher quality BBs. Strategy emphasizes sourcing positions with higher income levels given limited price appreciation opportunities. |

VolatilityManager emphasizes volatility as a structural feature of markets, noting that rare events occur far more frequently than expected. April's volatility event validated their convexity approach, with systematic monetization during stress periods. December saw compressed volatility with VIX hitting year lows, creating buying opportunities despite short-term costs. |

| TICKER | COMMENTARY |
|---|---|
| DAVA | Endava is an IT services provider, which the market perceives as an AI loser. Since this industry bills by the hour, the amount of billable work goes down if programming becomes more efficient. The alternative view is that this lower cost enables different kinds of IT projects for DAVA's customers and the lower price per project will be compensated for by higher volumes. When AI just came onto the scene, large corporates delayed their IT investment decisions to figure out how to apply AI to their business. Earlier in 2025, we started seeing the first signs of companies beginning to commit to large AI-related IT spending. Unfortunately, the business uncertainty following the Liberation Day tariffs postponed this recovery. We think 2026 will be the year when Endava returns to growth. Unfortunately, DAVA has also underperformed its peers because of less-than-stellar execution. The company now trades at 0.3x sales, versus 1-2x for peers. We think that normalized Net Income margins are around 10%, putting the company around 3x P/E once the business stabilizes and rationalizes its headcount. It's even cheaper if they manage to return to growth. |
| FND | Floor & Decor Holdings (FND) is a specialty retailer offering a broad assortment of hard-surface flooring products at everyday low prices. |
| NVO | Novo Nordisk shares were a drag on the portfolio due to increased competition in the weight-loss drug market, resulting in reduced sales and profit growth outlooks. In December, the company announced FDA approval for its oral Wegovy pill, which could alter investor perception positively. |
