The valuation gap is evident across multiple metrics including price/earnings, price/cash flow, and enterprise value/sales. Historically, such discount levels often preceded attractive relative returns for value stocks over subsequent three- to five-year periods. Exposure to emerging markets helped returns, led by South Korean Samsung Electronics, Mexico's Cemex, and Erste Group Bank operating across emerging Europe. Leading contributors for the year included emerging market holdings such as Alibaba, Samsung, Taiwan Semiconductor, Brazil's Embraer and Mexico-based Cemex. The portfolio continues to have larger weighting to select emerging markets, particularly Mexico, South Korea, and Brazil. National Grid has strategically repositioned its asset base toward electricity networks, reducing exposure to gas and aligning with long-term energy transition trends. Over the past decade, roughly 75% of its regulated asset base is in electricity, expected to rise to 80% by 2029, supported by structural growth in electrification and renewable integration. The company's position as a critical enabler of decarbonization provides attractive risk-adjusted returns. Mondi is a leading European producer of corrugated packaging, containerboard, kraft paper, and uncoated fine paper with strong presence in Eastern and Western Europe. Secular trends such as sustainability, convenience, and the shift from plastic to paper underpin steady growth in fiber-based packaging. The company's cost leadership, strong positioning in high-barrier-to-entry kraft paper market, and integrated operations provide competitive advantage. | TSCO LN NG LN MNDI LN |

The manager notes AI stocks accounted for approximately 61% of the S&P 500's return in 2025. Unlike the dot-com era, some AI leaders are real businesses financing substantial AI investments with self-generated cash flow, though valuations for some are attractive while others may be overvalued. The manager emphasizes following value investing discipline by purchasing only companies from their MVP list with stable values at discounted prices. They focus on businesses with sustainable competitive advantages trading below intrinsic value estimates, with portfolios showing improved price-to-value ratios across all strategies despite positive absolute returns. Small Cap returns have lagged Large Cap for an extended period, with Small Cap Value performing even worse. The manager notes conversations with clients questioning continued Small Cap allocation, spotty sell-side coverage, and an ignored segment creating opportunities. Their Small Cap portfolio remains most discounted with weighted average price-to-value ratio in mid-50s. The manager owns more insurance-related businesses, highlighting opportunities in the sector. They discuss Ryan Specialty Holdings as a commercial excess and surplus insurance broker, and Everest Group as a leading reinsurance company trading at discount to tangible book value despite producing underwriting profits. Share repurchases are highlighted as value-creating when companies buy back stock below intrinsic value.

The manager believes AI is as real and transformational as the Internet, with approximately 61% of the S&P 500's return in 2025 coming from AI-related stocks. However, concerns exist about paying too much for AI businesses despite their real potential. The manager is finding tremendous opportunities in non-AI related companies that are steadily compounding their values but being ignored by the market. These 'old economy' companies are becoming increasingly discounted while AI stocks dominate returns, creating attractive value opportunities similar to the late 1990s dot-com era. Small Cap returns have lagged Large Cap for an extended period, with the manager noting conversations about whether to continue allocating to Small Caps. The Small Cap portfolio has a weighted average price to value ratio in the mid-50s, representing the most discounted portfolio. Sell-side coverage is spotty to nearly non-existent for many small cap holdings. Share repurchases are highlighted as a key value creation mechanism, with Medpace repurchasing over 8% of shares at approximately 50% of intrinsic value, effectively providing 100% returns on capital deployed. Companies are using strong balance sheets and free cash flow for opportunistic buybacks at discounted valuations. | MSFT CSGP CRM GOOG CBRE RYAN |

Artificial Intelligence is disrupting numerous businesses similar to the Internet in the 1990s. AI stocks accounted for approximately 61% of S&P 500's return in 2025. Manager believes AI is as transformational as the Internet but warns against paying excessive valuations for AI-related companies, drawing parallels to dot-com bubble. Small Cap returns have lagged Large Cap for extended period, with Small Cap Value performing even worse. Manager sees this as opportunity, noting sell-side coverage is sparse and segment is ignored and unloved. Small Cap portfolio remains most discounted with weighted average price-to-value ratio in mid-50s. Manager focuses on MVP list of highest quality, most stable value companies in the world with sustainable competitive advantages. Lower quality companies have outperformed higher quality companies, especially in Small Cap, with companies having negative earnings accounting for 28% of Russell 2000 Value Index return. Medpace used strong balance sheet and free cash flow to repurchase over 8% of shares at approximately 50% of estimated intrinsic value. Every dollar spent on share repurchases gave 100% return because they were purchasing at half of estimated fair value, increasing estimated value per share by 29% in single quarter. | View | |

Manager notes sell-side coverage of Small Caps is much less robust, leading to ignored and unloved segment.

The fund focuses on identifying companies with sustainable competitive advantages in this transformative environment. SpaceX has revolutionized space travel with reusable rockets and dominates launch services, carrying over 500,000kg of spacecraft mass in Q3 2025 alone. The company is uniquely positioned for emerging opportunities in interplanetary logistics, in-orbit data centers, and asteroid mining. EchoStar provides indirect exposure to SpaceX through strategic transactions at attractive valuations. Starlink has achieved significant scale with millions of active customers and is expanding into direct-to-cell services for smartphones. The satellite internet constellation aims to deliver high-speed, low-latency broadband globally, particularly to underserved areas. This represents a major growth opportunity in telecommunications infrastructure. EchoStar's transformation involved monetizing valuable spectrum licenses worth billions, resolving regulatory issues with the FCC. The company sold spectrum to AT&T and SpaceX for over $40 billion combined, demonstrating the significant value of these invisible wireless highways. Remaining spectrum assets provide additional monetization opportunities. The fund holds luxury brands like Kering, Swatch Group, and spirits companies as AI-proof investments. These companies with strong brand moats and pricing power are expected to endure and potentially thrive despite AI disruption. Their business models are considered resilient to technological changes affecting other industries. | SATS |
