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.
