1 Schroder UK Smaller Companies Fund Final Short Report 1 June 2015 to 31 May 2016
2 Schroder UK Smaller Companies Fund Review of Investment Activities From 29 May 2015 to 31 May 2016, the price of A Accumulation units on a selling price to selling price basis rose 4.77%. In comparison the FTSE* SmallCap ex Investment Trusts Index generated a total return of 0.25% 1 and the FTSE* All Share Index generated a negative total return of 6.31% 1. 1 Source: Thomson Reuters Datastream. The fund has delivered a strong absolute performance over the past twelve months to outperform its FTSE* SmallCap ex Investment Trusts Index benchmark. Our top performing holding over the period was budget package holiday provider Dart Group which published a robust year end trading statement. In a continuation of last year s strong trading, the company revealed that more than 50% of its summer 2016 season had already been booked, which was ahead of the same point in Off licence and convenience chain operator Conviviality was another top contributor. The market welcomed its acquisition of drinks wholesaler Matthew Clark and news in the year end trading update that results would be ahead of expectations. Defence and security business Cohort also performed well on the back of a well received earnings accretive acquisition of a Portuguese global defence supplier. Although the timeframe for completing the deal has slipped, the company published a robust set of interim results, at which it said full year revenue forecasts (excluding the acquisition) were well underpinned by the order book. On the negative side, not owning electrical retailer Darty was the largest single detractor after it was subject to a bidding contest between France s Groupe Fnac and South African retailer Steinhoff International. Meanwhile, CLS Holdings performed poorly amid weak sentiment towards the prime London residential property market. Although CLS Holdings predominantly invests in commercial property, it is developing Vauxhall Square, a major mixed used development in central London. Following a turbulent year we expect further market volatility amid an uncertain outlook for global growth and as the UK seeks to extricate itself from the European Union (EU) in the wake of a leave vote at the EU referendum. Consequently, our focus will remain on bottom up analysis, seeking out companies with unique assets, strong franchises and the ability to fund their expansion organically from internal resources. As of April 2016, and Rosemary Banyard s departure, Andrew Brough has been the sole manager of the fund. Fund Manager: Andrew Brough

The Operating charges are calculated on an ex-post basis and as such may differ from the Ongoing charges figure where the Ongoing charges figure has been annualised for a unit class that has not been in existence for a full year. Please remember that past performance is not a guide to future performance and it might not be repeated. The value of investments and the revenue from them may go down as well as up and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Because of this, you are not certain to make a profit on your investments and you may lose money.

10 Investment Objective & Policy The fund s investment objective is to aim to achieve capital growth by investing in UK smaller companies. The policy is to invest in smaller companies in the UK which are expected to exhibit superior growth over the long term. Investment will be in directly held transferable securities. The fund may also invest in collective investment schemes, warrants and money market instruments. Risk Profile Risk and reward indicator Lower risk Potentially lower reward Higher risk Potentially higher reward The risk category was calculated using historical performance data and may not be a reliable indicator of the fund s future risk profile. The fund is in this category because it can take higher risks in search of higher rewards and its price may rise and fall accordingly. The fund s risk category is not guaranteed to remain fixed and may change over time. A fund in the lowest category does not mean a risk free investment. Specific risks The fund invests solely in the securities of a particular country. There may be a greater risk than investing in funds that hold securities in a range of countries. The fund invests in smaller companies which may be less liquid than larger companies and price swings may therefore be greater than in larger company funds. For these reasons, the purchase of units should not normally be regarded as a short term investment.
