Executive Summary
The Polaris Global Equity Composite posted strong performance in Q4 2025, gaining 7.00% (net of fees) outperforming the MSCI World Index's 3.20%. For the full year 2025, the Composite gained 26.82% vs. 21.60% for the index, reflecting a notable market leadership shift away from U.S. tech mega-caps toward international value equities. Key absolute performers included SK Hynix, Samsung Electronics, and Lantheus Holdings, while Marathon Petroleum was the primary detractor. The manager disciplinedly exited several fully-valued positions to fund opportunities in structurally stable Asian financial and tech leaders.
