Commentary Highlights
September 30, 2025- Markets: Global equities delivered solid gains in 2025’s third quarter (3Q25), buoyed in part by easing trade tensions and optimism surrounding artificial intelligence (AI). Central bank actions—notably the US Federal Reserve’s interest-rate cut and the potential for further monetary easing—supported market sentiment, as did generally robust corporate earnings. Global information technology (IT) stocks were volatile but ultimately topped all 10 other major equity sectors, supported by robust earnings and forward guidance from many IT and tech-adjacent firms—especially those tied to AI, cloud, data infrastructure, semiconductors and software.
- Detractors: Stock selection in communication services, consumer discretionary, industrials and health care.
- Contributors: Stock selection in the software and IT services industries; stock selection in the financials sector; and a supportive stock selection and underweighting in the hotels, restaurants and leisure industry.
- Outlook: While we believe the excitement around the progress in both agentic AI and Generative AI (GenAI) as well as data-driven experimentation is merited as a widening array of industries test AI’s novel business applications, other parts of the economy are also exciting—including aerospace and defense, robotics, genomics and green energy.

Prior to close of business on November 3, 2023, the ETF operated as an open-end mutual fund. The ETF has an identical investment goal and substantially similar investment strategies as the predecessor mutual fund. The NAV returns include returns of the Advisor Class shares of the predecessor mutual fund prior to the ETF's commencement of operations. Prior to the ETF's listing on 11/6/2023, the NAV performance for the Advisor Class shares of the predecessor mutual fund is used as a proxy for market price returns, which are typically calculated using the official closing price of the ETF. If the predecessor mutual fund had been structured as an exchange-traded fund, its performance may have differed.

Distributions & Tax
- Distribution Frequency
- AnnuallyThis fund is an ex-Dividend fund
- Capital Gain Distributions
- December
Distributions are not guaranteed and are subject to change.
Final composition of the current year’s distribution—income, capital gains and/or return of capital—are based on US tax rules and will be determined by February of the following year. For tax characterization of a distribution, such as return of capital and tax-exempt income, click on the “Tax Information” tab above.
Distributions Per Share
12/14/2021
Annually, a fund must distribute all realized capital gains net of realized losses, so the fund will not be subject to an entity level income tax. A fund’s capital gain distribution in a particular year may be a result of the disposition of holdings that appreciated in value during prior years. Thus, while the fund may gain or lose value over the course of a year, a capital gain distribution paid by the fund may not be indicative of current performance of the fund.
The distributable amount of net capital gains are paid on a per-share basis to all investors who hold shares of the fund on the record date of the distribution and are recognized by the shareholder for tax purposes as of the ex-date of the distribution, regardless of when the gains or losses arose in the fund. Net gains on holdings held long term by the fund would be distributed to shareholders as a long-term capital gain distribution no matter how long the shareholder has owned shares in the fund.
Refer to the fund’s annual report or statement of additional information for specific information regarding distributions.

Risks
All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. To the extent the portfolio invests in a concentration of certain securities, regions or industries, it is subject to increased volatility. The investment style may become out of favor, which may have a negative impact on performance. Active management does not ensure gains or protect against market declines. Small- and mid-cap stocks involve greater risks and volatility than large-cap stocks. International investments are subject to special risks, including currency fluctuations and social, economic and political uncertainties, which could increase volatility. These risks could be magnified in Emerging Markets. Because the Fund is non-diversified, it may be more sensitive to economic, business, political or other changes affecting individual issuers or investments than a diversified fund. The manager may consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria in the research or investment process; however, ESG considerations may not be a determinative factor in security selection. In addition, the manager may not assess every investment for ESG criteria, and not every ESG factor may be identified or evaluated. These and other risks are discussed in the fund's prospectus.
