Overview of Factor Investing

Evolution of Factor Analysis Progression of research into the drivers of asset returns SINGLE SOURCE OF SYSTEMATIC RISK MULTIPLE SYSTEMATIC RETURN ANOMALIES ASSORTED STRATEGIC RISK AND RETURN FACTORS Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) proposes return on investment driven by exposure to single factor, market risk or beta. Fama and French develop model accounting for additional factors, stock characteristics of size and style, which also drive performance. Substantial research and analysis into many other strategic factors, which can be used to explain the components of a stock s return.

Evolution of Factor Analysis at Fidelity Fidelity has long history of factor investing, which has evolved significantly over the last decade since the Quantitative Research team was formed. 1988 Fidelity launches its first quant fund, Disciplined Equity 2007 Global Value and Momentum multifactor model researched and launched 2016 Research, development, and launch of stand-alone factor products 1965 2006 2008 2013 Fidelity hires first dedicated Quant analyst Quantitative Research team formally established to complement fundamental capabilities First sector factor model launched in collaboration with fundamental research Quality and Low Volatility models researched and launched Background Fidelity s quantitative research capabilities were built to provide fundamentally based factor insights to portfolio managers, research analysts, and CIOs. Factor-based stock selection models were built via collaborations between FMR analysts and PMs with the Quant Research team. Factor models incorporate the best stock drivers from both fundamental and quantitative perspectives. Evolution resulted in a suite of intuitive, fundamentally-driven models for generating investment ideas and monitoring portfolio exposures. 20 Source: Fidelity Investments.

Factor Usage

Potential Key Uses of Factor Strategies in a Portfolio Investors seek out factor exposures for return/outcome potential and risk management INTENDED OBJECTIVES Strategic Exposure Cyclical Exposure Portfolio Construction Strategic allocations to factors can enhance risk-adjusted returns. Investors may consider exposure to one or a combination of factors to take advantage of their potential benefits. Because factor returns can vary through time, adjusting factor exposures using a cyclical framework may help investors express a market or investment view. Investors and advisors can use factor-based strategies to fine-tune their exposures and better align their broader portfolios with their intended investment objectives and risk profiles. 22

A measure of comparison between the consensus earnings-per-share estimate from 12 months ago and actual earnings-per-share. A measure of the monthly average number of shares shorted divided by monthly average number of shares traded. The percentage of a an index s weight-adjusted portfolio that differs from another comparison index. A historical measure of a fund's sensitivity to market movements and is calculated by comparing the fund's monthly returns, over 36 months, to those of the market, defined by the fund's benchmark. By definition, the Beta of the market (as measured by the benchmark) is 1.0. A Beta of less than 1.0 indicates that the fund is less sensitive to the market, while a Beta of more than 1.0 indicates that the fund is more sensitive to the market. The higher the correlation between the fund and the market (as measured by R-squared), the more meaningful is Beta. A measure of cash generated by a company, which is calculated adding non-cash charges to net income after taxes. A measure of the correlation of weekly changes in the 10-year Treasury yield with weekly stock returns. A measure of growth in dividends per share over the last year. A measure of trailing dividends over last 12 months divided by price per share. Measures the growth in reported earnings per share over the specified past time period. Enterprise value divided by earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization. A measure of financial performance calculated as operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. Free cash flow (FCF) represents the cash that a company is able to generate after laying out the money required to maintain or expand its asset base. A measure of cash generated after deducting all investments needed to maintain and expand assets divided by total earnings. A measure of the stability of a company s free cash flows, calculated as a percentage of the last 20 quarters with positive free cash flow values. A valuation measure of a stock, which standardizes a company's free cash flow by its market capitalization. Generally, the lower the ratio, the less attractive the investment and vice versa, with the logic that investors would like to pay as little a price as possible for as much free cash flow as possible. 32

Glossary Term Information Ratio Market Capitalization Definition Measures a fund's active return (fund's average monthly return minus the benchmark's average monthly return) in relation to the volatility of its active returns. The total dollar market value of all of a company s outstanding shares. Payout Ratio A measure of trailing dividends per share over the past twelve months divided by earnings per share. Price-to-Book (P/B) Ratio The ratio of a company's current share price to reported accumulated profits and capital. Price-to-Cash Flow (P/CF) Ratio Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio (IBES 1-Year Forecast) Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio Trailing The ratio of a company's current share price to its trailing 12-months cash flow per share. The ratio of a company's current share price to Wall Street analysts' estimates of earnings. The ratio of a company's current share price to its trailing 12-months earnings per share. Price-to-Tangible Book Value (TBV) Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) Standard Deviation Volatility-Adjusted 12-Month Return Minus 1-Month Return The ratio of a company s current share price to its total book value, less the value of any intangible assets. A measure of how effectively a company uses the money (borrowed or owned) invested in its operations, typically expressed as net income minus dividends divided by total capital (debt plus equity). A measure of dispersion of a set of data from its mean. Cumulative 12-month stock return divided by monthly volatility, as measured by standard deviation, less the prior month s stock return. 33

In general, the typical business cycle demonstrates the following: Market Indices The S&P 500 Index is a market capitalization-weighted index of 500 common stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation to represent U.S. equity performance. S&P 500 is a registered service mark of Standard & Poor s Financial Services LLC. Sectors and industries are defined by the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS). 34

Important Information The S&P 500 sector indices include the standard GICS sectors that make up the S&P 500 Index. The market capitalization of all S&P 500 sector indices together composes the market capitalization of the parent S&P 500 Index; each member of the S&P 500 Index is assigned to one (and only one) sector. Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index is a market value-weighted index that covers the universe of dollar-denominated, fixed-rate, non-investment-grade debt.

Each stock that is classified will have a coding at all four of these levels. 35

Important Information Because of their narrow focus, sector funds tend to be more volatile than funds that diversify across many sectors and companies. Nondiversified sector funds may have additional volatility because they can invest a significant portion of assets in securities of a small number of individual issuers. The funds are considered nondiversified and can invest a greater portion of assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund; thus changes in the market value of a single investment could cause greater fluctuations in share price than would occur in a more diversified fund.
