Hyperscalers are approaching 90% of operating cash flows for CapEx spending, creating natural constraints on future growth rates. Quality factors including sales stability and high gross margins continued to underperform in 2025 as markets favored cyclical and momentum-driven assets. The portfolio's quality growth companies are trading at historically attractive relative valuations. Market leadership was dominated by momentum and cyclical assets while quality growth strategies faced headwinds. Extreme concentration and momentum effects created significant winners and losers independent of company fundamentals. | INFY NOW ARM MELI MSFT SE NFLX AVGO 9983 JP TSM GOOG |

The portfolio is positioned to capture AI value through companies providing essential intellectual property and manufacturing capability for the AI ecosystem, including TSMC, Arm Holdings, SAP, and Dassault Systemes. The portfolio focuses on high-conviction quality growth businesses anticipated to achieve consistent mid-teens earnings growth with reduced variability. Despite market headwinds favoring cyclical assets, SGA maintains conviction in quality companies with predictable revenue and cash flow generation that should become more sought after if market volatility increases. New positions were established in Sea Limited and Grab Holdings, both Southeast Asian consumer internet companies with integrated ecosystems. Sea operates Shopee e-commerce platform with integrated payments and logistics, while Grab provides super-app services for ride-hailing, food delivery, and digital payments across Southeast Asia. | TEAM ARM DSY FP SRT GR 9983 JP |

The fund adds defensive longs in healthcare and new exposure to the Korea Defense ETF, citing global security and cost advantages. Its positioning favors durable, high-quality businesses poised to outperform when speculative excess fades. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 13, 2026 | Upslope Capital Management | 2.0% | 14.8% | 6954.T, 8697.T, BAH, BIO, CCK, CME, DPLM.L, FCN, GOOGL, HOLN.SW, HSIC, HSY, INTC, MKTX, SAND.ST, SMIN.L, STE, TDY | AI, Automation, defense, healthcare, industrials, Japan, Long/Short, mid cap | Manager exited European defense stocks for the first time since early 2022, citing full valuations and expectations that the Ukraine conflict may wind down. However, maintains exposure through Booz Allen Hamilton and Korea Defense ETF, noting long-term secular tailwinds from rising geopolitical risks and defense spending. AI is described as everywhere, particularly on buyside analyst desktops, contributing to faster market pace and gambling-like behavior. Manager sees AI moving into the physical world as a catalyst for industrial automation companies like Fanuc, which is positioned to benefit from AI's expansion beyond digital applications. Fanuc holds ~50% market share in CNCs and is a leading factory robotics player, positioned to benefit from AI moving into the physical world and rising trade barriers boosting global reshoring. The company serves general industrial, automotive, electronics, and aerospace end markets with global diversification. Portfolio includes Japan Exchange Group benefiting from ongoing Japanese equity market structure reforms and corporate governance improvements. Fanuc represents exposure to leading Japanese industrials with fortress balance sheets and global market leadership in automation. | HSIC 6954 JP CCK BAH |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 13, 2026 | Fenimore Dividend Focus Strategy | -4.4% | 1.9% | AJG, APH, AVY, BR, CDW, CTAS, HEI, HLI, IEX, JKHY, MCHP, MLM, PAYX, ROST, RSG, STE, SYK, TT, VRSK, WSO | AI, dividends, healthcare, mid cap, Quality, technology, value | Fenimore maintains focus on high-quality companies with strong balance sheets, consistent profitability, and prudent capital allocation. Quality as a factor remained out of favor despite many businesses showing strong long-term fundamental prospects. The firm believes solid business fundamentals should reassert themselves as the primary driver of stock prices in the long run. AI excitement and related infrastructure builds continued to drive the market, drawing capital away from nearly every other area. Investor enthusiasm was driven toward businesses with AI-related exposures. Amphenol benefited from data center buildouts supporting AI, with its IT Datacom segment growing 128% organically. Dividend-paying companies lagged non-dividend-paying companies by more than 50%. On average, portfolio holdings raised their dividends 9% over 2025, in line with their earnings growth. The top three dividend raisers were Amphenol (55%), Cintas (15%), and Verisk Analytics (15%). Valuations for portfolio companies are becoming more attractive while other indices become more overvalued. The fund sees compelling valuations within the portfolio, which management believes sets the fund up for solid future performance. Many quality franchises are trading at relative multi-year lows. | TT APH JKHY ROST |
