| 2025 Q3 | Nov 16, 2025 | Matrix Dividend Income | - | - | ACN, LMT, STZ | dividends, income, Quality, stability, valuation | The letter emphasizes the durability and growth of dividend income as a core investment theme, highlighting consistent dividend increases across the portfolio and strong free-cash-flow support. Management argues that high-quality dividend payers are poised to benefit from declining short-term rates and shifting market sentiment toward stability amid slowing economic growth. With attractive valuations and resilient earnings profiles, dividend-oriented equities remain well-positioned for defensive outperformance. | LMT STZ ACN |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 30, 2026 | Aristotle Value Equity Fund | 1.0% | 9.7% | AMGN, CBSH, COF, LEN, MRK, MSFT, PH, SONY, STZ, TDY, UBER, USB, WFC | AI, earnings, large cap, rates, Trade Policy, US, value | Artificial intelligence continued to be a major theme with more than 300 S&P 500 companies mentioning AI on earnings calls. This enthusiasm helped propel mega-cap tech stocks higher and drive market gains. However, scrutiny increased around AI-related revenue circularity, massive capital spending scale, and durability of longer-term returns on investment. Trade relations between the U.S. and China remained a key market focus. Tensions flared with tariff escalations and export controls, with China expanding export controls on rare earth minerals and the U.S. threatening 100% tariffs in retaliation. President Trump and President Xi ultimately reached a one-year trade truce at the APEC summit. The Federal Reserve implemented two 0.25% interest rate cuts during the quarter, lowering the federal funds target range to 3.50%-3.75%. Fed Chair Powell emphasized a data-dependent approach, acknowledging risks to both sides of the Fed's dual mandate and maintaining a cautious stance going into 2026. Value stocks handily outperformed growth stocks with the Russell 1000 Value Index outperforming its Growth counterpart by 2.69% in the quarter. However, for the full year, the Russell 1000 Growth Index outperformed the Russell 1000 Value Index by 2.65%, reflecting continued growth leadership despite quarterly value outperformance. | CBSH COF PH UBER SONY |

| Q4 2025 | Jan 16, 2026 | GDS Investments | - | - | ABNB, AMZN, CRWV, DEO, F, GE, GM, GOOGL, LEN, NVO, ORCL, RIVN, STZ, TDW, TREX, VAL, WMT, ZTS | AI, Buybacks, cyclicals, Electric Vehicles, Quality, Rotation, technology, value | AI-related infrastructure investment is beginning to unwind or recalibrate, with companies shifting from internal cash flows to debt financing. The manager expects a widening gap between pure AI infrastructure companies and those with diversified business models. Market rotation is expected away from speculative AI growth toward more traditional businesses. Share repurchases feature prominently across the portfolio as a signal of management confidence and value creation amplification. Multiple holdings have authorized significant buyback programs, including TDW ($500M), VAL ($600M ongoing), STZ ($4B), and others totaling billions in authorized repurchases. Rivian represents maybe the most exciting position in the portfolio, with the company developing its own autonomy platform and in-house chip (RAP1). The R2 model represents a pivotal moment, and partnerships with Volkswagen and Amazon have strengthened the balance sheet while expanding strategic options. The manager focuses on separating durable value from speculative excess, building positions in under-owned, under-valued businesses with strong balance sheets and leadership positions. The strategy involves finding high-quality businesses facing cyclical headwinds that have pushed market prices below intrinsic value. | RIVN TREX AMZN GOOG |
