Oracle Cloud Infrastructure comprises many smaller datacenters that can act as public or private clouds, particularly benefiting large enterprises like banks and healthcare companies. The shift to cloud for Oracle applications and databases will provide a revenue tailwind for years to come. | ORCL |

Its increasingly dense fulfillment network enables faster delivery speeds at lower cost, with 10% reduction in average travel distance for packages and 10% fewer touches compared to 2024. Amazon Web Services powers much of the digital world with approximately 30% market share and structurally lower unit costs than competitors. AWS offers more than 200 fully featured services and has consistently reinvested scale advantages into developer tools and proprietary chips, making customer workloads 20-40% more cost-effective. Semiconductors are the most fundamental technology in modern economies, with consumption expected to approach $1 trillion annually by end of decade. The industry has consolidated into dominant players at each key step in the value chain, resulting in deep customer relationships and prolific free cash flow generation. AI demand is driving explosive growth in datacenter interconnect requirements where companies like Amphenol are winning outsized market share. Microsoft's strategic partnership with OpenAI has created valuable new customer sources, while continued AI investments are driving demand for advanced chips across the semiconductor supply chain. HEICO benefits from aerospace industry supply chain problems as manufacturers struggle to ramp production of new aircraft. Rising air travel demand served through greater utilization of existing fleet has created higher maintenance demand, parts shortages, and price inflation - a perfect environment for HEICO to gain market share. Global payment networks Visa and Mastercard are uniquely durable businesses deeply embedded in global commerce plumbing. The digitization of payments continues as a multi-decade growth tailwind, particularly in underpenetrated geographies in Asia and Latin America, with value-added services providing additional monetization opportunities. Moody's and S&P Global operate near monopolies in credit ratings assignment, with regulatory requirements making their ratings industry standard. Both companies are on pace to set new highs in revenue and profitability driven by credit market conditions fueling widespread growth in debt issuance across the economy. | BRK.B AON MSFT V MCO HEI AMZN |

Google's latest Gemini AI release surpassed expectations with benchmarks showing performance moved to the front of the pack. The fund's deep value stocks averaging roughly 16% of portfolio assets had a disproportionately negative impact on returns in 2025. As value-oriented investors, the managers are comfortable taking contrarian positions but must be clear-eyed about how companies' prospects change. The portfolio's life sciences investments representing roughly 18% of average assets experienced a lost year in 2025. The industry began with pressure on research budgets and heightened scrutiny of healthcare apparatus, reorienting around a new normal before organic growth pickup spurred a rally. | BRK.B PRM CHTR KMX GOOGL |

The fund continues to find attractive opportunities among high-quality, cash-generative businesses with defensive characteristics including Colgate, Aon and Berkshire Hathaway. These fundamentally stable businesses underperformed in 2025 but continue to perform in-line with expectations. The portfolio focuses on fundamentally stable, higher quality businesses trading at discounts to intrinsic value estimates.

The fund continues to find opportunities where long-term fundamentals are not fully reflected in current prices. The fund reduced its overall weighting in the Financials sector while shifting exposure across industries. They trimmed more cyclical bank holdings like Wells Fargo and Bank of America, while increasing exposure to insurance brokers and alternative asset managers.
