The fund prefers durable businesses with strong balance sheets over hype-driven tech names. It cites Solventum, a 3M healthcare spin-off, as a value compounder aligned with its disciplined investment ethos. | SOLV US |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 27, 2026 | Diamond Hill Large Cap Strategy | 1.4% | 5.7% | AIG, AON, BRK-B, CAT, CB, CL, COF, COO, DOV, EQT, GM, GOOGL, HCA, HIG, LH, MU, NDAQ, SOLV, SYY, WIX, ZTS | AI, Defensive, financials, healthcare, large cap, Quality, technology, value | The fund remains cautious of AI-driven market exuberance where investor sentiment often appears to outpace business fundamentals. AI optimism drove strong performance in information technology and communication services sectors, with hundreds of billions in AI-related capital spending supporting stocks like Micron and Sandisk. The fund continues to find attractive opportunities among high-quality, cash-generative businesses with defensive characteristics including Colgate, Aon and Berkshire Hathaway. These fundamentally stable businesses underperformed in 2025 but continue to perform in-line with expectations. The portfolio focuses on fundamentally stable, higher quality businesses trading at discounts to intrinsic value estimates. New positions like Dover Corp were initiated when stocks traded at significant discounts to estimated intrinsic value. | EQT SOLV WIX DOV COO SYY LH ZTS COF AIG GM |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 26, 2026 | Davis Opportunity Fund | 0.0% | 22.0% | AMAT, AMZN, COF, CTRA, CVS, DGX, GOOGL, META, MKL, SOLV, TECK, UNH, USB, VTRS, WCC | active management, energy, financials, healthcare, Outperformance, selectivity, technology, valuation | Davis advocates for active management over passive indexing given stretched valuations in major indexes. They believe active managers can be selective at the security level and maintain rational diversification, contrasting with passive indexes where weightings are determined by share price momentum. The fund was opportunistic in healthcare throughout 2025, investing decisively in managed care insurers when operating costs surged unexpectedly. They believe these businesses traded at low multiples on depressed earnings with good recovery potential, as small margin improvements can translate into large percentage increases in earnings power. Holdings span social media, online search, cloud computing and e-commerce including select Magnificent 7 positions. They also own semiconductor companies at reasonable valuations, including picks and shovels businesses like Applied Materials with strong competitive positions and long track records of value creation. The portfolio looks different from major passive indexes in financials. Capital One Financial is a core holding with strong consumer finance, deposit-rich banking, and payment processing capabilities. It trades at only 13-14 times forward earnings despite attractive economics and is the fifth-largest holder of AI-related patents among major US companies. The fund owns stakes in energy and commodities companies that they have been quietly building. Coterra represents their energy business holdings, while Teck Resources reflects interest in select commodities like copper that serve as critical inputs to the electrification trend. | WCC COF UNH |

The manager emphasizes that fundamentals eventually win out despite current market speculation. The manager identifies significant red flags in circular financing fueling the AI boom, comparing it to vendor financing of the late 90s. Companies like Oracle, OpenAI, Nvidia and CoreWeave participate in arrangements that effectively fund their own customers' purchases. Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy) serves as a cautionary tale of speculative excess. The stock fell 60% as its premium to Bitcoin holdings evaporated, forcing the company to sell equity to cover preferred dividends rather than buy more Bitcoin. | NKE TW LN BKNG |
