2025 Q4	Jan 20, 2026	The Bristol Gate U.S. Equity Strategy	0.0%	0.0%	ACN, AMAT, AVGO, CARR, CTAS, GE, IBKR, LLY, MSFT, ODFL, TMO, UNH, ZTS	AI, dividends, healthcare, Quality, semiconductors, technology, value	Bristol Gate focuses on companies with robust free cash flows and disciplined capital allocation that deliver superior risk-adjusted returns through sustainable dividend policies. Portfolio companies grew dividends by 14.3% over the last twelve months compared to 5.6% for the S&P 500. The firm believes dividend growth rates are powerful predictors of total return and fastest dividend growers often outperform the broader dividend universe. Since ChatGPT's launch in late 2022, the market has experienced a seismic shift with investor capital concentrating heavily in AI leaders, creating narrow market breadth. Bristol Gate devotes significant resources to data science and machine learning in their investment approach, believing in AI's transformative power. However, their focus remains on identifying high dividend growth companies rather than over-concentrating in AI themes. Eli Lilly continues to benefit from the strength of its incretin portfolio, commanding 58% of the US incretin market and exiting Q3 with 71% of new prescriptions. The company raised annual guidance for the third time in 2025, with strength expected to continue into 2026 when its oral GLP-1 drug orforglipron hits the market in Spring. The oral alternative is expected to significantly expand the market globally due to ease of use, simpler supply chain, and lower cost. Applied Materials rose despite mixed results due to AI-driven demand optimism, specifically around advanced logic and high bandwidth memory chips. Management issued cautiously optimistic Q1 2026 outlook and forecast significant uplift in second half of calendar 2026 as spending shifts back toward AMAT's strengths. Analog semiconductor companies have been reporting improving results, signaling a shift in real-world manufacturing and consumer spending.	IBKR ZTS TMO AMAT LLY	View

2025 Q4	Jan 18, 2026	The Davenport Core Leaders Fund	0.1%	10.7%	AAPL, ACN, ADBE, AMZN, AVGO, CTAS, EOG, GOOG, ISRG, META, MRVL, MSFT, NOW, NVDA, ROK, SPOT, UBER, UNH, UNP, VRTX	AI, diversification, large cap, Quality, risk management, technology, value	AI and technology stocks led market gains in 2025, with Nvidia up 38.87% after a 171.17% gain the prior year. A gold rush mindset developed across the AI ecosystem, spreading to speculative corners including MEME stocks and unprofitable AI/tech companies. However, there are risks around massive capital outlays for computing power and unclear paths to returns. The market was dominated by momentum-driven stories with little regard for valuation, particularly in AI and tech sectors. 18 of the top 20 performers in the Russell 3000 from April through November were unprofitable companies. Jumping on momentum bandwagons proved more fruitful than having differentiated perspectives or being valuation sensitive. The Fund emphasizes high return businesses with durable competitive advantages and management teams committed to long-term capital allocation. Strategy holdings are positioned to consistently compound intrinsic value across market conditions, staying grounded in business fundamentals rather than short-term market trends. The Fund remains purposefully diversified despite market leadership being narrow and focused on AI. This discipline reflects commitment to effective risk management and appropriate diversification, which weighed on relative performance but positions the Fund well for various market scenarios.

2025 Q4	Jan 18, 2026	The Davenport Value & Income Fund	1.5%	13.7%	ACN, ADBE, ARE, C, CTAS, EOG, FDX, GOOG, HPQ, ISRG, META, MMC, MRVL, MSFT, NOW, NVDA, ORCL, SPOT, UBER, UNP, VRTX	AI, Buybacks, dividends, large cap, technology, value	Technology and AI-related stocks led the charge again in 2025, with tech and communications services sectors advancing 23.83% and 32.47% respectively. AI darling Nvidia was up 38.87% after a 171.17% gain the prior year. A gold rush mindset developed across the AI ecosystem with fervor spreading to speculative corners of the market. In 2025, 36 of the Value & Income Fund's 42 holdings increased their dividends by an average of 7% year-over-year. Companies like McDonald's, Exxon Mobil, Fidelity National Financial, and Becton-Dickinson continued their annual streak of dividend enhancements at 49, 43, 10, and 54 years respectively. In 2025, 30 of the Value & Income Fund's holdings reduced their share count via buybacks by 1.2% on average. Companies are taking advantage of discounted valuations to accelerate buyback pace and return capital to shareholders. The managers focus on stocks that have been cast aside as investors focused elsewhere on momentum plays. They believe the market's sun could shine elsewhere soon and can't stomach the risk associated with many of today's highflyers. Their conservative approach has weighed on relative performance but they've seen this dynamic before.		View
2025 Q4	Jan 13, 2026	Fenimore Dividend Focus Strategy	-4.4%	1.9%	AJG, APH, AVY, BR, CDW, CTAS, HEI, HLI, IEX, JKHY, MCHP, MLM, PAYX, ROST, RSG, STE, SYK, TT, VRSK, WSO	AI, dividends, healthcare, mid cap, Quality, technology, value	Fenimore maintains focus on high-quality companies with strong balance sheets, consistent profitability, and prudent capital allocation. Quality as a factor remained out of favor despite many businesses showing strong long-term fundamental prospects. The firm believes solid business fundamentals should reassert themselves as the primary driver of stock prices in the long run. AI excitement and related infrastructure builds continued to drive the market, drawing capital away from nearly every other area. Investor enthusiasm was driven toward businesses with AI-related exposures. Amphenol benefited from data center buildouts supporting AI, with its IT Datacom segment growing 128% organically. Dividend-paying companies lagged non-dividend-paying companies by more than 50%. On average, portfolio holdings raised their dividends 9% over 2025, in line with their earnings growth. The top three dividend raisers were Amphenol (55%), Cintas (15%), and Verisk Analytics (15%). Valuations for portfolio companies are becoming more attractive while other indices become more overvalued. The fund sees compelling valuations within the portfolio, which management believes sets the fund up for solid future performance. Many quality franchises are trading at relative multi-year lows.
