| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | ClearBridge Investments International Growth ADR Strategy | 0.0% | 0.0% | 0700.HK, 8035.T, AZN.L, CLS.TO, EL.PA, ENR1.DE, GALD.SW, HEI.DE, III.L, ITX.MC, LIN, NVO, NWG.L, RACE, ROG.SW, RYA.L, SE, SIE.DE, SONY, TT, UCG.MI | AI, Asia, banks, Europe, growth, international, Pharmaceuticals, value | The Strategy saw strength in holdings supporting the buildout of AI workloads during the quarter, led by Siemens Energy (electrical equipment for data centers), Tokyo Electron (semiconductor equipment), and Celestica (cloud platform technology solutions). Data centers remain supportive for earnings revisions in industrial holdings. Health care was a focus of activity with repurchases of EssilorLuxottica and Galderma Group and addition of Roche. Roche reported positive Phase III data for giredestrant and fenebrutinib with peak sales opportunities of $5 billion each. The sector has been improving after U.S. policy pressures moderated. Increased non-U.S. defense spending is here to stay as NATO evolves from U.S. leadership to more European participation. There has been rebuilding of inventories in the European Union and efforts to maintain steady defense infrastructure supply. Japan has also increased defense spending under its new prime minister. Despite investor avoidance since COVID, Chinese innovation is rapid and happens at lower prices. The next five years will see companies consolidate and dominate higher value chain positions across pharmaceuticals, battery materials, solar energy and technology. Lower valuations and higher profitability make exposure necessary. Banks can benefit from funding AI and energy transitions through new profitable loans. Heidelberg Materials could see upside from implementing decarbonization technologies in cement production. The transition creates lending opportunities and operational improvements for industrial companies. Value has worked internationally because inexpensive stocks are direct beneficiaries of enormous stimulus measures in Germany, Europe and Japan. The Strategy increased structural growth exposure through European and U.K. banks where there is a step change in earnings. Bank valuations remain inexpensive with excess capital. | HEI GR ROG SW NWG LN AZN LN |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 14, 2026 | Hardman Johnston International Equity | 4.3% | 0.0% | 0700.HK, 7011.T, AMZN, AZN, DTE.DE, GE, LDO.MI, MELI, NEX.PA, NVO, PRX.AS, PRY.MI, RHM.DE, SDZ, SIE.DE, STAN.L, TMUS, VZ, WEIR.L | AI, Asia, defense, Europe, financials, healthcare, international, Mining | The portfolio maintains exposure to defense companies like Rheinmetall AG despite short-term volatility from Ukraine-Russia peace deal speculation. Management sees structural shift toward increased defense spending across NATO and Asia Pacific nations after years of underinvestment. Visible growth stretches years into the future with strong orders, high backlogs, and political will to invest in national security. The manager acknowledges AI's long-term potential to drive productivity gains while remaining cautious about concentration risk. Companies involved in AI development remain attractively valued relative to growth trajectories, though excitement has stretched beyond IT sector into energy and utilities. The challenge is avoiding portfolios that appear diversified but are overly concentrated around AI themes. Sandoz Group benefits from strong biosimilar growth with streamlined U.S. regulatory guidance moving closer to EU model. This regulatory shift reduces development costs, enabling reinvestment into pipeline expansion and acceleration of future programs. The company plans to launch generic semaglutide in Canada in 2026 as a test case for larger global opportunities. The global mining cycle remains supportive with capex momentum improving after years of troughing, underpinned by elevated commodity prices. Weir Group was initiated as a new position, benefiting from high aftermarket exposure and secular demand drivers in copper and gold. The company is well positioned whether capex flows to greenfield or brownfield projects. Standard Chartered's Wealth Management platform has taken share from competitors and benefits from expanding assets under management. This business contributes to rising fee income that diversifies the bank away from traditional net interest income. Rising wealth in key Asian, Middle Eastern, and African markets with strong demographic growth supports the trajectory. | DTE GR NEX FP WEIR LN MELI 7011 JP RHM GR STAN LN AZN SDZ SW |
