Hotchkis & Wiley Large Cap Fundamental Value

Investor Summary

The fund is managed by an experienced four-person portfolio management team with an average tenure of 23.1 years. George H. Davis Jr. serves as Executive Chairman with 37 years at Hotchkis & Wiley and 41 years of total industry experience, holding degrees from Stanford University. Scott McBride, CFA, functions as CEO and portfolio manager, joining in 2001 with expertise in technology companies and degrees from Georgetown and Columbia universities.

Fund Strategy

The Large Cap Fundamental Value strategy represents Hotchkis & Wiley's founding investment approach, having invested in undervalued large-cap stocks for over 45 years. The firm employs disciplined investment strategies that primarily rely on in-house fundamental security research with the goal of providing clients with portfolios offering attractive risk-adjusted returns relative to specified benchmarks. The investment process emphasizes long-term thinking about company valuations, focusing on price and what investors receive for that price in terms of earnings, cash flow, and dividends. The team uses discounted cash flow models anchored on normalized earnings and seeks to build a portfolio of 40-60 stocks that offers a payout yield exceeding that of the S&P 500 while trading with a P/E ratio below the market average. The approach targets companies with strong market positions, robust balance sheets, and significant cash flow generation capabilities.

ANNUALIZED SINCE INCEPTION	QUARTERLY	YTD
8.77%	5.65%	5.89%

Executive Summary

Hotchkis & Wiley's Large Cap Disciplined Value Fund returned 5.65% in Q2 2026, underperforming the Russell 1000 Value Index's 13.87% return. The underperformance was driven almost entirely by the fund's lack of exposure to semiconductors and hardware, which returned 138% and 72% respectively and comprised 13% of the benchmark. The manager views the quarter as a speculative, momentum-driven rally fueled by boundless AI excitement, with valuations reaching bubble-like extremes and investor leverage spiking. While acknowledging AI as a powerful tool, the manager believes markets have overbuilt infrastructure and questions whether AI data center capex growth is sustainable if revenue payoffs disappoint. The portfolio actively avoids perceived AI beneficiaries with excessive valuations while favoring high-quality businesses where AI disruption fears are overstated, particularly enterprise software companies with strong moats and switching costs. The manager has added to defensive segments like healthcare and consumer staples, which offer attractive risk/return prospects. Key holdings include Workday, APA Corp, and health insurers Humana and Elevance. The manager expects market reversion when euphoria gives way to rational fundamentals and believes the portfolio is well positioned for that environment.

Core Thesis

The manager believes current AI-driven market leadership represents a speculative mania with unsustainable valuations and questions whether massive data center capital expenditures will generate sufficient returns, while seeing compelling opportunities in high-quality businesses trading at attractive valuations where the market overstates AI disruption risks, particularly in enterprise software with strong switching costs and moats.

Forward Outlook

The manager expects the mania-driven market to revert when euphoria gives way to rational economic fundamentals and valuation. They believe the businesses they own—attractively valued, high quality, well capitalized, and prudently managed—are well positioned for that reversion. The tone is patient and contrarian, with conviction that current market extremes are unsustainable.

TICKER	COMMENTARY
APA	APA Corp. (APA) is an independent oil and gas E&P (exploration & production) company operating in the Permian and in Egypt. Quarterly results were in line with expectations and supportive of our investment thesis, but the stock fell as oil retreated due to optimism about a resolution to the conflict in Iran. APA offers strong free cash flow generation driven by favorable natural gas price differentials and underappreciated reinvestment opportunities in Suriname, Egypt, and potentially Alaska. Despite concerns over shorter Permian resource life, APA trades at attractive value metrics relative to its free cash flow yield and remains leveraged to a structurally undersupplied global energy market. The company has an investment grade balance sheet and trades at a valuation discount to its peers.
WDAY	Workday Inc. (WDAY) is a leader in cloud software for back-office business functions, spanning human capital management (HCM), financial management, and adjacent ERP (enterprise resource planning) products, with 60% of the Fortune 500 as HCM customers. Shares declined over the period, pressured by investor concerns that AI could disrupt application software vendors. The most recent quarter, however, did not show evidence of this. Subscription revenue grew 14%, 12-month backlog grew 16%, retention remained industry leading, margins expanded, and management reiterated full-year subscription revenue guidance while raising operating margin guidance. AI adoption also appears to be progressing, with Workday-developed agents now used by more than 4,000 customers and Recruiting Agent activity up sharply year over year. We continue to believe the disruption thesis significantly underestimates enterprise switching costs and the non-code moat that makes Workday durable.
CMCSA	Comcast Corp. (CMCSA) is one of the largest wireline telecom service providers in the US. The stock underperformed due to a weak quarterly earnings result, largely due to AT&T launching an aggressive pricing strategy as it attempts to build share on its fiber to the home footprint. Comcast's share price does not fully reflect the business's growth from broadband pricing and wireless market share gains. The company announced it is separating its NBCU/Sky media businesses in a spinoff. We view this development as positive, confirming our belief in the management team's ability to create value. Our investment thesis remains intact.
HUM	Humana Inc. (HUM) is one of the largest pure Medicare Advantage (MA) health insurers in the United States. Performance over the quarter was strong following news that the US agreed to increase 2027 payments for private MA plans above its initial proposal earlier in the year. The company's stock has been undervalued due to higher utilization by enrollees and uncertainty regarding reimbursement rates. We view these issues as temporary because the company reprices its business every year, which should lead to a recovery in margins.
FFIV	F5 Inc. (FFIV) sells application networking and security software as well as data center appliances. The company's stock rose after it posted good quarterly results and raised both its revenue and EPS guidance. The company is misunderstood and gets incorrectly classified as a legacy IT hardware vendor, resulting in an attractive valuation for a company with better-than-average fundamental risk ratings. F5 has over 50% market share in traditional ADCs (application delivery controllers), along with various multi-cloud networking and application security products.
ELV	Elevance Health Inc. (ELV) is the second largest health insurer, and one of the largest commercial insurers in the United States. Shares rose during the quarter after the company reported quarterly earnings that beat consensus estimates. It was further supported by news that the US agreed to increase 2027 payments for private Medicare Advantage plans above the initial proposal. The company is priced at a discount to the market, driven by skepticism surrounding margins and growth, despite being a superior business that grows above gross domestic product while returning most of its cash to shareholders.
