1 This annual management report of fund performance contains financial highlights but does not contain the complete annual financial statements of the investment fund. You can get a copy of the annual financial statements at your request, and at no cost, by calling , by writing to us at United Financial, 2 Queen Street East, Twentieth Floor, Toronto, ON, M5C 3G7 or by visiting our website at or SEDAR at Securityholders may also contact us using one of these methods to request a copy of the investment fund s proxy voting policies and procedures, proxy voting disclosure record, or quarterly portfolio disclosure. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND STRATEGIES The primary investment objective of the International Equity Growth Corporate Class (the Fund ) is to provide long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity-related securities of international issuers which are believed to offer above-average growth potential. Equity-related securities include convertible preferred shares, convertible debt obligations and warrants. The Fund also may invest in other mutual funds. The portfolio advisor allocates the Fund s investments in those companies that are believed to have a reasonable prospect of above-average earnings growth or long-term capital appreciation. The portfolio advisor seeks to diversify investments to capture return and diversification benefits by looking for companies with consistent earnings growth, expectations of future earnings growth, accelerating earnings, revenues, cash flows, leadership in its field and/or increasing market share. The Fund may use derivatives, but only as permitted by securities regulations. The Fund may also enter into securities lending transactions, repurchase transactions and reverse repurchase transactions, to the extent permitted by securities regulations, to earn additional income. In the event of adverse market conditions, the portfolio advisor may invest in short-term fixed income securities or cash equivalents. The Fund may, from time to time, engage in active and frequent trading of investments. This increases the possibility that an investor will receive taxable capital. This can increase trading costs, which will reduce the Fund s performance. RISK There were no changes to the Fund over the period of this report that materially affected the overall level of risk associated with the Fund. This Fund is suitable for investors who can tolerate medium risk, want an investment that is focused on generating capital growth, and are planning to hold their investment for the medium and/or long term. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The net asset value of the Fund increased by $34.6 million to $245.5 million from March 31, 217 to March 31, 218. The Fund had net sales of $16.6 million during. The portfolio s performance increased assets by $27.4 million. The Fund paid distributions totalling $9.4 million. Class A shares returned.1% after fees and expenses for the one-year period ended March 31, 218. Over the same time period, the Fund s benchmark returned 11.7%. The benchmark is the MSCI EAFE Return Index. The performance of the Fund s other classes is substantially similar to that of Class A shares, except for differences in the structure of fees and expenses. For the returns of the Fund s other classes, please refer to the Past performance section. Strong economic growth, which became increasingly synchronized across developed and emerging markets, propelled global equities during the 12-month period. Global gross domestic product rose nearly 4%, and ongoing corporate earnings growth continued to stoke investor confidence. Overseas stock markets generally posted double-digit total returns, as the MSCI EAFE Return Index rose more than 15% although currency conversion reduced this to 11.7% for Canadian investors. Asian and emerging markets were the strongest performers, particularly during the second half of the period. The MSCI Far East Index rose 2% over the 12-month period (16.2% for Canadian investors). The MSCI Emerging Markets Index soared 25.4% (21.4% in Canadian-dollar terms). European equities also posted solid, propelled by accelerating corporate earnings and strong underlying economic growth. The MSCI Europe Index was up 15.1% (11.5% in Canadian-dollar terms). Stock market sentiment remained positive through most of the period. As wore on and markets reached historic highs, it became increasingly difficult to find attractive risk-return investment opportunities. The combination of elevated expectations and high valuations led to relatively high cash positions across many Cambridge portfolios as 218 began. However, the markets soon became volatile, and beginning in late January the MSCI EAFE fell 9% in less than two weeks. While corporate earnings continued to accelerate through the end of the period, investor sentiment became cautious, with the focus turning to tightening financial conditions and higher interest rates. Rising trade tensions between the United States and China caused further angst. Central banks around the world responded to the accelerating economic backdrop by raising short-term interest rates. In mid-march, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) increased its benchmark one-quarter of a percentage point rate to 1.5%, However, the European Central Bank and Bank of Japan held their benchmark rates steady, as they chose to pause their respective economic stimulus programs. Yields on the two-year government bonds in Germany and Japan remained at slightly negative levels during the quarter. The Fund underperformed the benchmark due to its positions in the information technology, industrials and consumer staples sectors. Currency hedging detracted from relative value. The portfolio had overweight exposure to industrials and information technology, and was underweight in financials. Information technology and consumer discretionary were the largest sectors. Exposure to health care was decreased, while energy was increased. The portfolio s cash position was about 8% at the period end, down from 16% a year earlier. Nearly one-fifth of the Fund s assets were in Japan, which was a strong contributor to performance, as were positions in Denmark and Norway. CIG
2 Among individual securities, Nolato AB and Tsuruha Holdings Inc. made the largest individual contributions to relative performance, while Auto Trader Group PLC was the biggest detractor. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS As rising short-term interest rates filter through the global economy, we will be watching for signs of slowing economic growth. This may be somewhat offset by the benefits of U.S. tax reform, which should stimulate capital spending and support economic growth in the second half of 218 and beyond. In Canada, housing and consumer debt levels will be closely monitored as these could make the domestic economy vulnerable to a potential slowdown. We will adhere to Cambridge s bottom-up fundamental investment process to uncover attractive risk-reward opportunities. This involves evaluating the investment merits of a business and measures this analysis at a range of scenarios to determine the investment s potential upside and downside. This evaluation is an integral part of our investment process and helps prepare for potential volatility. We will monitor economic and market developments and will be ready to act when compelling risk-adjusted return opportunities emerge.
