Executive Summary
In Q2 2025, the AMG Frontier Small Cap Growth Fund (Class N) returned 13.91%, outperforming the Russell 2000 Growth Index's return of 11.97%. Industrials was the largest contributing industry, driven by Pagaya Technologies and ATI Inc. The Technology sector also contributed strongly, benefitting from the bottoming of a multi-year semiconductor inventory cycle and transition to next-gen technology cycles. Consumer Discretionary detracted, notably via Life Time Group Holdings due to slower sign-up growth at locations under construction. The fund initiated three new positions: Sterling Infrastructure, ODDITY Tech, and Saia. Despite persistent concerns over interest rates and fiscal deficits, the manager is constructive on the outlook due to newly passed tax legislation incentives.
