"The AMG Frontier Small Cap Growth Fund returned 7.53% in Q3 2025, lagging its benchmark due to healthcare and consumer-discretionary headwinds, but remains constructive on a small-cap rebound driven by falling interest rates."
In Q3 2025, the AMG Frontier Small Cap Growth Fund (Class N) returned 7.53%, underperforming the Russell 2000 Growth Index which gained 12.19%. For the 12-month period, the fund returned 4.00% compared to the index's 13.56%. Underperformance was primarily driven by stock selection in the health care sector (including detractors Inspire Medical Systems, Ultragenyx, and Evolus) and consumer discretionary holdings (Mattel, Life Time). Technology was the primary contributing sector, led by gains in Silicon Motion and Coherent. The manager initiated new positions in Allegiant Airlines, Cognex, Unity, and Renasant Bank. Looking forward, the fund maintains a constructive outlook, believing that Federal Reserve rate cuts and improving employment will benefit small-cap corporate earnings and equity valuations.
