We believe downside protection is critical to producing long-term outperformance. Goal Seeks to outperform the Russell 3000 Value Index by 2% to 3% annualized over a market cycle.

Quarterly Commentary Portfolio Review Volatility continued. Broad U.S. equity market indices ended the quarter higher, supported by generally positive economic and earnings news. Nonetheless, stocks remained volatile against a backdrop of higher interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and the threat of increased trade barriers. For the quarter, growth continued to outperform value among large- and mid-cap stocks, according to the FTSE Russell Indices, and higher-quality stocks generally underperformed lower-quality stocks. Furthermore, Mergers and Acquisitions activity remained strong. Energy outperformed, while industrials lagged. Within the benchmark, the energy sector was propelled by rising oil and gas prices. On the other hand, the industrial sector lagged on fears of global trade barriers. Positive stock selection in financials. In the financials sector, positive stock selection drove outperformance. An underweight position in the sector also contributed. Our avoidance of Berkshire Hathaway was particularly beneficial. We do not own the stock because it does not pay a dividend. Consumer staples contributed to performance. Lack of exposure to tobacco company Philip Morris International positively impacted Energy detracted. Security selection in the energy sector weighed exposure to ConocoPhillips detracted as both companies benefited from rising oil and gas prices. Industrials a top overweight. During the quarter, industrials became a top overweight in the portfolio. We selectively initiated and added to higher-quality positions that declined due to concerns about trade wars or tempered guidance. Underweight in consumer discretionary. We remain underweight in this sector because it is difficult for us to find consumer discretionary companies that meet our quality and valuation criteria. Key Contributors Berkshire Hathaway. This is a large benchmark company that declined during the quarter. Lack of exposure to the stock was therefore beneficial to relative performance. We do not own Berkshire Hathaway common stock, as it does not pay a dividend. Enterprise Products Partners. This master limited partnership (MLP) outperformed due to increased oil and gas volumes and strong demand in the U.S. The company also simplified its structure and eliminated incentive distribution rights, which we believe results in a more sustainable MLP model. (MLPs are publicly traded, generally higher yielding securities of enterprises that engage in certain businesses, usually pertaining to the use of natural resources.) ONE Gas. Colder weather conditions and lower expenses contributed to outperformance for this large natural gas distributor. The company exceeded earnings per share estimates and raised its guidance to the upper end of the range for the full year. Key Detractors PNC Financial Services Group. During the quarter, banks generally underperformed. Additionally, PNC reported weaker-thanexpected results due to lower loan and fee income growth as well as higher expenses. Exxon Mobil. Our underweight in the integrated energy company detracted from performance. After multiple quarters of underperformance, the stock recovered as the price of oil and gas rose. However, we remain cautious on Exxon as it is making capital investments that could weigh on its returns on capital, free cash flow generation, and ability to organically fund its dividend. 3M. The stock of this diversified industrial company fell after reporting worse-than-expected earnings for its most recent quarter. higher raw material costs. 3M also lowered earnings guidance for its 2018 fiscal year. Notable Trades Eaton. We initiated a new position in power management company Eaton when the stock weakened on concerns that some end markets were slowing. We feel the market overreacted and that Eaton has an attractive dividend yield and a high degree of earlyand mid-cycle exposure. Paychex. A new position was established in this outsourcing company after the stock price fell and we found the risk/reward to be favorable. Paychex was a large beneficiary of U.S. tax reform. After reporting strong earnings, Paychex announced that it plans to reinvest nearly all of the tax reform benefit. We believe investors overreacted, which presented a good opportunity to start a position. AT&T. During the quarter, we eliminated our position in AT&T and added to Verizon Communications. Our metrics show that Verizon offers an attractive valuation and a relatively superior balance sheet. Additionally, since AT&T is undergoing a transitional acquisition, we believe that Verizon offers more stability. General Mills. Following its acquisition of Blue Buffalo Pet a level that caused us to exit our position in the stock. We invested proceeds from the exit into names we believe have more attractive balance sheets. 6

Positioning for the Future The portfolio continues to invest in companies where we believe fundamentals are strong and improving but share price performance does not fully reflect these factors. Our process is based on individual security selection, but broad themes have emerged. Value opportunities in industrials. The industrials sector became a top overweight in the portfolio during the quarter as we selectively initiated and added to higher-quality securities that declined due to concerns about trade wars or tempered guidance. A new position was initiated in Eaton, and we added to our position in 3M. Consumer staples remains overweight. Companies in this sector tend to offer business models that fit our investment process well. Additionally, we believe valuations have become attractive as fundamental headwinds, including fears of increased competition, have pressured stock prices. Procter & Gamble is a top holding that we consider to be one of the highest-quality companies in the consumer product industry. Overweight in financials. In the financials sector, the portfolio moved from underweight to overweight. This was driven by the positioning. We increased our positions in the insurance industry, including Allstate and Marsh & McLennan. A new position was initiated in Invesco, and we added to our position in PNC Financial Services Group. Real estate remains overvalued. We have a material underweight in real estate because our metrics show that valuations in the sector generally remain inflated. Furthermore, we think rising interest rates pose a threat to stocks in this sector. Consumer discretionary is a consistent underweight. This sector is a material underweight in the portfolio. We generally seek attractively valued, higher-quality companies with sustainable business models, and stocks in the consumer discretionary sector fit that profile less frequently. 7
