Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?

U.S. equities rose in 2025, rebounding from early tariff concerns after a temporary implementation pause that allowed for improved trade negotiations. Favorable corporate earnings, investor interest in artificial intelligence and high-growth companies, supportive tax legislation, and Federal Reserve interest rate cuts contributed to sustained market strength despite persistent elevated inflation throughout the year.
Versus the Russell 1000 Value Index, stock selection in industrials and business services led contributors to relative performance. GE Aerospace shares rose over the year as robust commercial aviation demand drove strong financial results and consistent guidance raises. Solid aftermarket services, operational improvements, and a substantial order backlog aided revenue visibility, with increased share buybacks and dividends further supporting investor confidence. An underweight exposure and stock choices in consumer discretionary, particularly Las Vegas Sands, also added value.
In contrast, stock selection in materials detracted from relative performance. International Paper shares declined due to weaker earnings, soft global packaging demand, and margin compression from higher costs. Pressure on the stock was exacerbated by losses from mill closures and the divestiture of its cellulose fibers business. Management’s reduced long-term guidance and DS Smith integration challenges further strained investor sentiment. In consumer staples, stock choices also hindered results, driven by Kimberly-Clark.
The portfolio is actively managed and seeks substantial dividend income and capital growth by investing in the dividend-paying stocks of established companies that appear undervalued. Notable changes in absolute positioning during the period included an increased exposure to communication services and a lower allocation to consumer staples.
