They believe quality stocks will eventually reclaim leadership after periods of low-quality outperformance. Small Cap biotechnology and pharmaceuticals emerged as significant outperformers in Q4, representing 132% of the Russell 2000 Growth Index's total returns. The manager notes they are materially underweight this sector, which created headwinds for relative performance as biotech rallied 33% for the year. The market showed persistent preference for AI-related hardware and infrastructure stocks, with AI themes dominating Index returns. The manager notes that capital flowed into more speculative AI names within the benchmark, creating valuation compression for traditional quality holdings. Defense-related stocks were among the key drivers of benchmark performance, with investors concentrating capital in defense stocks. The manager notes their lack of exposure to defense contractors weighed on relative results as this sector outperformed significantly. | GNRC BSY CSGP VEEV POOL WST IDXX ROL RGEN JKHY |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 18, 2026 | Conestoga Small Cap Composite | -1.9% | -10.1% | AAON, AZTA, BMI, CWAN, DGII, DSGX, FSV, KRMN, LMAT, NGEN, NOVT, RBC, RGEN, ROAD, SPSC, STVN, TREX, TRNS, VCEL, VERX | Biotechnology, credit, Performance, Quality, small caps, tariffs, volatility | Small Caps achieved new all-time highs in 2025 despite extreme volatility, with the Russell 2000 Growth Index surging 50% from April to October after initial tariff concerns. The manager expects Small Caps to outperform Large Caps given 32% projected earnings growth versus 13% for Large Caps and a 25% valuation discount. The market was dominated by low-quality, high-beta, unprofitable stocks during the April-October rally, creating headwinds for the manager's high-quality approach. However, profitable stocks began outperforming unprofitable ones by 5% from mid-October through year-end, suggesting quality leadership may be returning. Small Cap biotech and pharmaceutical stocks dominated fourth quarter performance, representing 132% of the Russell 2000 Growth Index's total returns despite comprising only 11% year-to-date through Q3. The manager's minimal exposure to this sector was a significant performance headwind. Trump administration's comprehensive tariff strategy announcement in February caused Small Caps to plummet over 20% in weeks. However, potential policy modifications in April sparked a dramatic turnaround, with the Russell 2000 Growth Index surging nearly 50% over six months. Concerns about credit quality in private credit and regional banking emerged in Q4, highlighted by First Brands bankruptcy and Tricolor fraud allegations. JPMorgan CEO's cockroach comment underscored systemic concerns, triggering a 10% correction in the Russell 2000 Growth Index. | MLAB KRMN BMI FSV RGEN RBC CWAN |
