The valuation gap is evident across multiple metrics including price/earnings, price/cash flow, and enterprise value/sales. Historically, such discount levels often preceded attractive relative returns for value stocks over subsequent three- to five-year periods. Exposure to emerging markets helped returns, led by South Korean Samsung Electronics, Mexico's Cemex, and Erste Group Bank operating across emerging Europe. Leading contributors for the year included emerging market holdings such as Alibaba, Samsung, Taiwan Semiconductor, Brazil's Embraer and Mexico-based Cemex. The portfolio continues to have larger weighting to select emerging markets, particularly Mexico, South Korea, and Brazil. National Grid has strategically repositioned its asset base toward electricity networks, reducing exposure to gas and aligning with long-term energy transition trends. Over the past decade, roughly 75% of its regulated asset base is in electricity, expected to rise to 80% by 2029, supported by structural growth in electrification and renewable integration. The company's position as a critical enabler of decarbonization provides attractive risk-adjusted returns. Mondi is a leading European producer of corrugated packaging, containerboard, kraft paper, and uncoated fine paper with strong presence in Eastern and Western Europe. Secular trends such as sustainability, convenience, and the shift from plastic to paper underpin steady growth in fiber-based packaging. The company's cost leadership, strong positioning in high-barrier-to-entry kraft paper market, and integrated operations provide competitive advantage. | TSCO LN NG LN MNDI LN |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 18, 2026 | Distillate Capital International | 0.0% | 41.5% | 005930.KS, 066570.KS, 1024.HK, 2319.HK, 2618.HK, 267270.KS, 601600.SS, 6594.T, 9618.HK, AEM, AUTO.L, BATS.L, CX, FMX, GIB.TO, MC.PA, RHHBY, RIO.AX | cash flow, fundamentals, international, Quality, valuation, value | U.S. equities are historically expensive by any measure and at a valuation level that has typically been associated with much more subdued future returns. The S&P 500 is near record multiples and trading at concerningly rich valuations primarily due to a short list of very large and expensive stocks. International stocks look very appealing even after significant outperformance in 2025. International stocks significantly outperformed their domestic counterparts in 2025, and the less expensive portions of the market did particularly well. International companies offer an important counterbalance to the richness of the broader U.S. market when selectively chosen and are beneficial from a diversification perspective. The strategy systematically filters out highly levered or fundamentally less stable companies and focuses on cash flow stability and low indebtedness thresholds. Quality metrics include fundamental stability scores and leverage ratios that differentiate the portfolio from broader market benchmarks. | View | |
