Our goal is to identify those companies that appear to be trading at a discount to what our estimation indicates as their projected future intrinsic value, which, over time, may produce strong share price return. Patience On a short-term basis, stocks may overreact to news and noise. On a long-term basis, we believe markets are efficient and patience may reward those who have identified undervalued stocks. Bottom-Up Stock Selection We identify value through rigorous fundamental analysis, proprietary screens, and a worldwide network of experienced research resources. Research is done on a company-by-company basis in different countries and industries to determine what we consider its economic worth to be based on projected future earnings, cash flow, asset value potential, and material environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors.

4 Templeton Asian Important Legal Information Templeton claims compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS ). Templeton (or the firm ) as defined encompasses the wholly-owned investment management subsidiaries of Templeton Worldwide, Inc. with global, international, single country or regional, and emerging market equity investment objectives, serving both retail and institutional clients. The firm definition for Templeton does not include the foreign-domiciled investment advisory subsidiaries of Templeton Worldwide, Inc. that primarily offer only locally registered investment mandates or funds and the wrap-fee and non-wrap-fee accounts managed by Templeton Separately Managed Accounts (formerly Templeton Portfolio Advisers). Each investment advisory subsidiary within Templeton employs the same bottom-up, valueoriented investment style whether managing global equity, non-u.s. equity, single country or regional equity, or emerging market equity mandates. Portfolio managers pursuing similar investment mandates share research, have equivalent access to Templeton s bargain and source of funds lists, and are subject to the same peer review process. Templeton believes that the performance shown is representative of its management style and relevant for consideration in selecting any individual investment advisory subsidiary comprising Templeton. Some of the individual investment management subsidiaries which comprise Templeton, however, may have limited or no accounts included in the composite. Effective 1 December 2017, the equity accounts previously defined as Franklin Europe are included in Templeton s firm definition. Templeton Asian consists of all discretionary portfolios managed by Templeton with investment objectives that seek capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of the Asia Region excluding Australia, New Zealand and Japan. The Asia Region includes but is not limited to the following countries: Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, People s Republic of China, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan and Thailand. No account(s) in the composite use leverage or derivatives other than the use of forward foreign currency contracts in conjunction with the normal settlement of security trades in currencies other than the base currency of each account. As a result, leverage or derivatives do not have a material affect on returns. Total returns are presented in U.S. dollars both gross and net of investment advisory fees, are inclusive of commissions and transaction costs, and assume reinvestment of any dividends, interest income, capital gains, or other earnings.
