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 | |

The manager notes this has been the worst six-month period for high-quality stocks since 1975, as investors have rotated to more volatile, riskier stocks. The portfolio's operating margin has improved to 27.6%, which is 640bps above historical average and 1,880bps above benchmark. | View | |

The AI and data-center buildout is fueling a multi-year capital expenditure cycle extending beyond semiconductors to power generation, transmission, and thermal management components.

They embrace this volatility as it creates opportunities to buy below fair value and sell above fair value, while improving their process to capitalize on these dynamics. The letter discusses how momentum has become an over-owned factor, with many investors avoiding declining stocks. The managers believe taking the other side of downward momentum can be extremely profitable if positioned to ride through volatility, as much trading is now quantitative rather than fundamental. The fund focuses exclusively on small and micro-cap opportunities, believing there is compelling opportunity for meaningful long-term capital appreciation. They discuss how small-caps falling into micro-cap territory face institutional selling pressure when they drop below arbitrary thresholds like $100M market cap. | OM ARQ RZLT XOMA |

McKinsey projects nearly $7 trillion in capital expenditures will be needed worldwide by 2030 to build up AI infrastructure. The Fund believes we are entering a transition period for AI, moving into a higher risk phase with flood of capital and unusual financing structures. The consistency of corporate earnings is a major reason for continued stock market strength. The S&P 500 is projected to deliver 12% earnings growth in 2025, while small cap companies are showing their first signs of earnings growth recovery after three years of contraction, posting 13% growth in 2025. The Federal Reserve began cutting rates in the fourth quarter with cooling inflation giving policymakers confidence. Lower interest rates are expected to continue into 2026, which typically takes around a year to feel effects through the economy and would likely support small business hiring and consumer confidence. | View | |
