| 2025 Q4 | Jan 20, 2026 | Harding Loevner International Small Companies Equity | -1.9% | 15.1% | 0005.HK, 0700.HK, AAPL, BHP.AX, BP.L, GSK, HSBA.L, LLY, MARS, MC.PA, MKC, MSFT, NESN.SW, OR.PA, PAN, SANOFI, SAP.DE, SHOP.TO, VOW3.DE, WEED.TO | AI, Consumer Staples, gold, growth, international, momentum, Quality, small cap | The fund emphasizes quality-growth investing that demands relentless skepticism toward market narratives and constant scrutiny of company fundamentals. They focus on financially strong, well-managed companies equipped with durable competitive advantages, operating in industries poised for long-term growth. The letter discusses how price momentum is a well-documented phenomenon where securities whose prices have risen are more likely to keep rising in the short run. When momentum takes hold, fundamentals usually fade from view while narratives are used to justify price moves. AI enthusiasm has lifted hardware and semiconductor stocks while weighing on shares of software and services holdings. The fund discusses AI infrastructure buildout and questions about the durability of demand across the AI supply chain, while also addressing concerns about AI disrupting IT services businesses. Gold is trading at its highest inflation-adjusted level in five decades, but it is a volatile commodity. Gold-mining companies have not had a great history of profitability other than when prices are unusually high, yet surging gold prices sparked a rally in mining stocks. | EVT GR HERDEZ MM 4527 JP 002891 CH CWK LN DIA IM |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 13, 2026 | Ennismore European Smaller Companies Fund | 0.0% | 10.7% | AAD.DE, BNTX, COST.L, DWNI.DE, EVS.BR, LSS.PA, PDX.ST, RNK.DE, SFQ.DE, SIKA.SW, STB.L, STO.DE, THEP.PA, TRI.PA, ULP.L, VETQ.PA, VOW3.DE | AI, defense, Europe, infrastructure, Long/Short, Quality, small caps, value | The fund focuses on European smaller companies with significant volatility in 2025 as investors turned attention towards large, liquid businesses. Despite brief revival of interest in small caps early in the year, the asset class faced headwinds from investor preference for large-cap themes like energy, defense, and AI. The fund employs a valuation-first investing framework with strong conviction in individual positions based on quality of businesses and embedded margin of safety. Top ten long positions trade at average EV/NOPAT multiple of thirteen times versus twenty-four times for short positions, implying nearly 50% valuation discount for comparable quality. Several portfolio companies benefited from upcoming infrastructure spending in Germany and the UK, with Vossloh and Costain Group seeing significant improvements in market perception. The fund anticipates positive triggers from launch of exceptionally large infrastructure projects in Germany. The defense industry continued to rally with valuations detaching from fundamentals in favor of narrative. The fund was slow to react to this theme, with short position in Renk Group costing performance as defense companies outperformed despite fundamental concerns. Artificial intelligence emerged as an intense focus theme for investors, creating headwinds for some portfolio companies. Moltiply Group faced investor concerns about AI impact, while the broader market showed exuberant behavior in speculative corners with focus on AI themes. | R3NK GR STO3 GR SFQ GR DWNI GR TRI FP EVS BB SIKA SW STB LN |
