INVESTMENT PROCESS

Run quantitative screening

The universe of over 8,000 stocks worldwide is ranked statistically based on a composite score of three factors:

� Valuation—Multiples of earnings, cash flow, and book value � Fundamentals—Operating returns on operating assets � Business momentum—Earnings surprises and estimate revisions

Conduct a fundamental analysis

Quantitative results are vetted through an in-depth review and analysis of each company: � Valuation—How much are we paying? � Fundamentals—What are we buying? � Business momentum—Is the business improving or deteriorating?

Adhere to a sell discipline

A reversal of any one of the three factors triggers a sell decision. A position may be sold based on: � Valuation—The stock price has reached its target � Fundamentals—Fundamentals have weakened � Business momentum—Momentum has turned negative
