| 2025 Q3 | Sep 30, 2025 | SGA – U.S. Large Cap Growth | -1.4% | 2.8% | AAPL, ABBV, AMZN, AON, ARM, AVGO, AXP, CMG, COO, CP, CRM, DHR, ECL, GOOGL, GWW, INTU, IT, JNJ, META, MSFT, NFLX, NKE, NOW, NVDA, NVO, ORCL, PLTR, SNPS, SPGI, TSLA, UNH, V, WCN, WDAY, WM, YUM | AI, growth, large cap, momentum, Quality, technology, underperformance, valuation | AI infrastructure buildout remains a dominant market force driving speculation and momentum trading. While AI benefits some portfolio companies like Nvidia, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon, the manager warns of bubble dynamics similar to the dot-com era. Historical parallels suggest infrastructure beneficiaries may face disappointment while long-term winners emerge later as companies building services on top of infrastructure. | View | |

| 2024 Q1 | Apr 27, 2024 | Parnassus Growth Equity Fund | 3.3% | 21.0% | AAPL, ADYEY, AKAM, AMAT, AMZN, AVGO, CHTR, CP, CRM, GOOGL, INTU, ISRG, LLY, MSFT, NTRA, NVDA, PTC, SPGI, TSM, V, VRTX, YUM | AI, growth, healthcare, large cap, semiconductors, technology | AI-related momentum and optimism continued from 2023 into Q1 2024, particularly within semiconductors. The fund benefits from AI exposure through holdings like NVIDIA, Taiwan Semiconductor, and Broadcom, which are positioned to benefit from soaring demand for AI capabilities and chip production. | View | |
| 2024 Q1 | Apr 27, 2024 | Parnassus Fixed Income Fund | 4.8% | 4.5% | ARE, ARES, BAC, CHRW, CP, GPN, MKC, MS, ORCL, SQ, SYY, TFC, YUM | Corporate Bonds, duration, Esg, fixed income, rates | The fund maintains a 60% overweight allocation to corporate bonds versus the 25% benchmark weight, believing they provide the best long-term returns due to higher initial yields. Corporate bonds aided performance as tight spreads and strong economic growth supported healthy profitability and cash flows. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 8, 2026 | SGA – U.S. Large Cap Growth | 0.2% | 3.0% | AAPL, AMZN, ARM, AVGO, AXP, COO, CRM, DHR, GOOGL, GWW, INTU, META, MSFT, NFLX, NKE, NOW, SPGI, V, WM, YUM | AI, growth, large cap, momentum, Quality, semiconductors, valuation | AI capital expenditures are expected to moderate due to structural constraints including power availability, skilled labor shortages, and capital availability. Hyperscaler CapEx spending has reached historically high proportions of revenues and operating cash flows. The most attractive long-term AI opportunities reside with businesses building long-term value rather than companies exposed to cyclical swings. 2025 was characterized by extreme momentum dynamics with capital flowing into immediate winners while perceived losers saw unprecedented pressure. Market leadership concentrated in lower-quality, speculative, and cyclically sensitive stocks. The momentum trade has been exceptionally profitable short-term but timing the inevitable reversal remains challenging. Quality growth companies with stable fundamentals have seen relative valuations plummet to lowest levels in decades while cyclicals trade at historically high levels. The portfolio focuses on reliable and durable growth companies with lower variability that continue to compound earnings and cash flows attractively despite not being rewarded by the market currently. Semiconductor and AI capital equipment stocks were among market darlings, buoyed by massive AI infrastructure spending. However, purely cyclical sectors exposed to hyperscaler CapEx growth rates will have a shorter runway of growth left as further upward growth revisions become challenging. | ALC YUM IT META MSFT ARM AVGO CRM COO GOOG |

While positive on GenAI potential long term, considerable uncertainty remains on pace and degree of monetisation, resulting in increasing risks to the market. The underlying rationale for the recent rally appears increasingly driven by speculative elements including circular deals heavily dependent on OpenAI growing and monetising its user base. | ADS GR |

Portfolio exposed to highest-quality players in AI value chain including cloud providers benefiting from increased AI adoption. Risks include potential slowdown in AI investment growth due to power, labor and material constraints. Amazon AWS showing acceleration in growth and margin expansion from increased capex spend, with notable deals to provide computing to OpenAI. All incumbent cloud providers viewed as winners from increased AI application adoption despite short-term positioning shifts. Hermès highlighted as structurally advantaged business with rare durability built on craftsmanship and restraint. Company has delivered exceptional consistency through cycles with disciplined supply, minimal discounting and limited fashion risk, insulating it from cyclical luxury demand pressures. TSMC performing strongly on continued strength in semiconductor demand for AI applications, described as insane by CEO. Company has cemented dominant position at leading edge and begun mass production of 2nm chips using new Gate All Around transistor architecture. | MSFT GOOG TSM |
