Executive Summary
During the quarter ending September 30, 2025, the Loomis Sayles Global Growth Fund posted a return of 7.59% (Class Y), slightly underperforming its MSCI ACWI benchmark by 0.03%. Top performance contributors were Tesla, Alphabet, and Oracle, while MercadoLibre, Netflix, and Adyen were the largest detractors. In terms of activity, the fund did not make any new purchases but selectively added to existing holdings in Novo Nordisk and Vertex, which was funded by trimming Alibaba. The fund continues to operate with low turnover (estimated 9.0% annualized since inception) and a concentrated high-conviction exposure to mega/large-cap structural winners in sectors like communication services, information technology, and consumer discretionary, maintaining a collective 43% discount to its estimated intrinsic portfolio value.
