The fund invests in global small and mid cap equities with 30-60 holdings, maintaining benchmark agnostic positioning. The portfolio targets companies with market capitalizations in the SMID cap range, seeking to outperform the MSCI World SMID Cap Index over rolling three-year periods. The fund emphasizes valuation discipline as part of its QARP approach, seeking quality companies at reasonable prices. Many high-quality businesses in the portfolio are trading at compelling valuations, with the portfolio's weighted upside potential sitting at the upper end of historical ranges based on conservative assumptions. | VEEV AUTO LN COR TSCO CNM TTC 3064 JP 6146 JP CPG LN LPLA GWW ODFL |

Tokyo Electron was added as a new position, benefiting from increasing semiconductor complexity across various end markets. MercadoLibre faced share price volatility reflecting a tug-of-war between accelerating revenue growth and concerns over short-term margin pressure from defending market share in Brazil. Despite disappointing performance, the manager sees substantial growth runway and disciplined long-term management. DSV shares rebounded after geopolitical pressure on global trade. Third-quarter results exceeded expectations with margin improvement and upgraded guidance on DB Schenker acquisition synergies. Management accelerated integration timeline with most savings expected within two years. Lundin Mining was added as a new position, described as a high-quality copper-focused miner with low-cost assets and strong production growth potential. The manager sees an improving demand-supply balance in copper with current valuation not accounting for company quality. | 2454 TT SALM NO 8035 JP LUN CN DSV 005930 KS TME |
