You can get a copy of the semi-annual or annual financial statements at your request, and at no cost, by calling , by writing to us at CI Investments Inc., 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. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The net asset value of the Fund decreased by $.3 million to $92.7 million from March 31, 18 to September, 18. The Fund had net redemptions of $4.6 million during the period. The portfolio s performance increased assets by $4.3 million. Class A units returned 4.4% after fees and expenses for the six-month period ended September, 18. Over the same time period, the Fund s benchmark returned.3%. The benchmark is the S&P Total Return Index. The performance of the Fund s other classes is substantially similar to that of Class A units, 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. Stocks had a strong quarter, touching all-time highs, shrugging off trade tensions and benefitting from exceptional profit growth. Corporate profits jumped 16% year-over-year according to the Department of Commerce, helped by tax cuts and a robust domestic economy. Investors lost confidence in social media stocks as some reported disappointing quarterly results along with cautious outlooks for growth. Information technology stocks generally experienced an increase in volatility in an environment of heightened regulatory scrutiny. Specific stocks hurt by tariffs also made headlines. Large-cap stocks beat small caps. Health care, industrials, information technology, telecommunications services and large-cap financials had strong returns. All sectors were positive except for energy, despite Brent crude edging over $8 per barrel, a four-year high. The -year U.S. Treasury yield closed the quarter above 3%. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the third time in 18 which implies that more rate increases are likely this year and next. U.S. GDP grew at a 4.2% rate in the second quarter amid a pickup in hiring. The consumer price index rose 2.7% from the previous year through August, offsetting modest wage gains. Nevertheless, consumer confidence rose to nearly an 18-year high. Tariffs of $2 billion worth of Chinese goods went into full effect during the quarter, with observers debating the influence they would have on consumers. Investments in Credit Acceptance Corp., Axos Financial Inc., CarMax Inc., LogMeIn Inc., Casey s General Stores Inc., FactSet Research Systems Inc., Carter s Inc., Bruker Corp., CyberArk Software Ltd. and Watsco Inc. were made during the reporting period. Credit Acceptance is in the business of indirect subprime auto lending. Since going public 25 years ago, the company has only lost money in one year (1999), has grown earnings per share at an annualized rate of 21% and has earned an average return on equity of 22.9%. Axos Financial has a sustainable low-cost competitive advantage in a commodity business (banking) through its internet-based business model. Given that a significant portion of bank transactions now occur outside of branches, BofI isn t harmed from a competitive perspective and isn t encumbered with an expensive branch network. The company passes on a significant portion of the benefit to customers through better deposit and loan rates creating a virtuous growth cycle. CarMax, the largest retailer of used vehicles in the United States, currently operates 185 stores and sold 7, used cars at retail in the last 12 months. Despite its size, market share is only about 4.4% of -4 years old used cars, while their share can be % in their more mature markets. CarMax has a differentiated business model (no-haggle pricing, large selection, non-traditional salesperson incentives). Aside from scale, other barriers to entry include an enormous amount of retail and wholesale transaction data, in-house auction business and in-house financing. The company is run by a solid management team with a strong track record on both operations and capital allocation. Over the long term, CarMax can continue to gain market share in this highly fragmented market. The Fund sold out of VeriFone Systems Inc., LegacyTexas Financial Group, Harmonic Inc., Black Hills Corp., Under Armour Inc., TripAdvisor Inc., Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp., Live Nation Entertainment Inc., Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corp. and Alkermes PLC during the period. TripAdvisor is a leading user generated content travel website with 455 million average monthly unique users and 57 million reviews on 1.9 million hotels, 4.4 million restaurants and 875 thousand attractions. The stock was a top contributor after reporting better than expected first-quarter 18 results, including 36% year-over-year growth in its experiences business and raising its 18 EBITDA guidance. We used the strength to exit the position as the shares reached our price target. The portfolio posted positive absolute returns for the period. Stock selection in the consumer staples and information technology sectors and a greater-than-index allocation to the health care sector were positive contributors to relative results. The largest individual contributors were Centene Corp., Encompass Health Corp., LivaNova PLC, Morningstar Inc. and Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc. The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the period. Stock selection, particularly in the consumer discretionary, materials, real estate, financials, industrials and energy sectors, was the primary detractor from relative results. The largest individual detractors were LGI Homes Inc., Bank of the Ozarks Inc., Summit Materials Inc., LCI Industries and Jones Lang LaSalle Inc. The Fund s less-than-index allocations to the energy and real estate sectors also negatively impacted relative performance. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Stocks have the support of a robust global economy, policy rates that remain negative in real terms and the broad adoption of technology that reduces the need for capital and labour. The U.S. is also benefitting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which has boosted corporate profits. However, as its effect wanes and financial conditions tighten, we expect both economic and earnings growth to moderate. With trade frictions potentially increasing and interest rates likely to rise, the stage is set for higher volatility and a growing focus on company fundamentals. We believe our investment approach is well suited to this environment. As always, we seek companies that can generate a growing stream of free cash flow and can allocate that cash effectively for the benefit of shareholders. CIG - 213
2 Effective July 26, 18, the risk rating for the Fund changed from Medium to High to Medium.

Management Fees Approximately 26% of total management fees were used to pay for sales and trailing commissions. The remaining 74% of management fees were used for investment management and other general administration.

10 (1) This information is derived from the Fund s semi-annual and annual financial statements. (2) Management expense ratio is calculated based on expenses charged to the Fund (excluding commissions and other portfolio transaction costs) and is expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net assets for the period, including the Fund s proportionate share of any underlying fund(s) expenses, if applicable. The Effective HST tax rate is calculated using the attribution percentage for each province based on unitholder residency and can be different from 13%. (3) The trading expense ratio represents total commissions and other portfolio transaction costs expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net assets during the period, including the Fund s proportionate share of such expenses of any underlying fund(s), if applicable. (4) The Fund s portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund s portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of % is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the fiscal period. The higher a Fund s portfolio turnover rate in a period, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the period, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the period. There is not necessarily a relationship between a higher turnover rate and the performance of a Fund. Portfolio turnover rate is calculated by dividing the lesser of the cost of purchases and the proceeds of sales of portfolio securities for the period, and excluding cash and short-term investments maturing in less than one year, and before assets acquired from a merger, if applicable, by the average of the monthly fair value of investments during the period. (5) This information is provided for the period ended September, 18 and the years ended March 31.
