The fund has limited direct AI exposure through Lattice Semiconductor and has not reached comfort levels on sustainable AI impact for many benchmark holdings.

These AI-impacted stocks declined 15% despite 10% revenue growth and 15% EPS growth, representing 42% of the portfolio. The manager believes the market's assessment of AI risk differs from their own and expects valuations to recover as AI concerns moderate. The fund focuses exclusively on high-quality businesses with superior characteristics including competitive advantages, sustainable growth, and strong financial metrics. This quality-focused strategy was out of favor in 2025 as investors sold higher-quality investments to buy riskier stocks. The Earnings Quality factor performance was in the 100th percentile, demonstrating the fund's quality bias during a period when quality was penalized. The fund invests in a portfolio of competitively advantaged small and medium-sized businesses, which remained out of favor for most of the quarter. The strategy of owning leading small-cap businesses has been the foundation since inception, delivering 354 basis points of annual outperformance over the benchmark since inception despite recent headwinds. | View | |

JFrog benefited as customers leveraged generative AI to improve developer productivity, driving increased binary creation and platform usage. The manager expects corporations to show continued productivity gains as AI is adopted to reduce costs and open new revenue opportunities. Data center activity was a key driver for several holdings. Vertiv Holdings benefited from robust data center infrastructure demand with 29% organic revenue growth. Legence Corp, an engineering and maintenance services company, was a strong contributor due to robust data center activity. Aerospace and defense players were among the best performers in 2025, including Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Karman Holdings, and RBC Bearings. The manager notes heightened aerospace and defense spending and improving margins in this sector. The manager expects small-cap companies to grow faster than large caps going forward, which is not typical of recent years. Better growth ahead for small caps could lead to market broadening and leadership change. Small caps have historically grown more slowly than large caps, contributing to extended underperformance. | View | |

They note that quality factors worked against active managers in 2025, with low-quality stocks significantly outperforming high-quality names. Small cap earnings growth turned positive during 2025 and is expected to stay positive and potentially accelerate in 2026. Small caps continue to trade at a relative discount to large caps, presenting an opportunity for this discount to narrow. The firm maintains significant exposure to AI infrastructure and sees an accelerated pace of innovation happening across various industries. Their technology holdings are diversified across AI infrastructure among other areas. | View | |

The acceleration in Q4 underscores persistent safe-haven demand amid geopolitical tensions, central bank buying, inflation hedging, massive global debts and a favorable macro backdrop with lower real yields on fixed income securities. Silver far outpaced even gold with explosive momentum in the final quarter, delivering a colossal 147.5% gain for the year to $71.54 per ounce. This reflects gold's safe-haven spillover plus strong industrial demand from solar, electronics, EVs, and AI-related applications, chronic supply deficits, and early cycle speculative fervour. The firm's significant allocation to precious metals royalty companies was the primary driver of outperformance in 2025. Precious metals staged historic rallies as hard assets and inflation hedges dominated, providing a powerful tailwind to resource-heavy Canadian indices amid broader global uncertainty. The new Rocklinc Principled Equity Fund focuses on undervalued securities through a concentrated portfolio of 20 or fewer holdings, enabling conviction-driven investments based on deep fundamental analysis. The firm deliberately steers clear of overvalued securities trading at extreme multiples and resists purely speculative investments. Canada leads globally in active ETF adoption, with about 30% of total ETF assets under management being actively managed, compared to just 8% in the US. The firm launched the Rocklinc Principled Equity Fund ETF to tap into this booming market where investor demand and competition among providers are driving rapid growth. Sprott has successfully positioned itself at the center of the modern energy transition through its dominance in the uranium sector. The Sprott Physical Uranium Trust is now the largest holder of physical uranium in the world, effectively becoming the institutional gateway for nuclear energy exposure. | SII |

The economy has grown from about $1 trillion to around $4 trillion over roughly 17 years, with credible estimates suggesting it could roughly quadruple over the next 15-20 years. India has moved from the periphery to the center of global equity markets as the fourth-largest listed market in the world. AI represents a new layer of software and automation that is already changing how work is done, how products are built, and how decisions are made. It has triggered a significant investment cycle across the physical stack including chips, servers, networking equipment, power generation, cooling, and data centers. Several businesses in the portfolio are already using these tools to improve efficiency, decision-making, and service quality. The alternative-asset industry is still in the early stages of moving from the margins into the mainstream, both for institutions and particularly for private-wealth clients. KKR's three-engine model is designed for this structural shift, with management aiming to build a business that can double and then double again, taking adjusted net income per share from $3.42 in 2023 to more than $15 within roughly 10 years. HEICO operates in the unglamorous world of replacement parts and mission-critical components, serving as the world's largest independent supplier of FAA-approved PMA replacement parts. The business benefits from structural tailwinds including Americans driving more, an aging vehicle fleet, and rising repair complexity that means more vehicles are totaled rather than repaired. The excess and surplus (E&S) segment has grown steadily for years, with AM Best estimating that direct premiums written are approaching $130 billion, accounting for more than a quarter of all U.S. commercial-lines premium. Kinsale has built a focused underwriting business designed for speed, discipline, and cost efficiency with consistently low expense ratios in the low-20s. | HEI KKR KNSL CPRT TRIV IN BAF IN |
