The U.S. Dollar is the currency used to express performance. Returns are presented gross and net of fees and include the reinvestment of all income and other earnings. From January 1, 2014 to April 27, 2015, and March 1, 2016 to present, all calculated returns included dividend accruals. Net of fee performance was calculated using the highest applicable annual management fee applied monthly. Composite performance is presented net of foreign withholding taxes, where applicable. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Returns are based upon currently available information and subject to change. Periods of less than one year are not annualized.

Results are based on fully discretionary accounts under management, including those accounts no longer with the firm.

As of January 1, 2022 to present, a portfolio is no longer removed due to a client initiated significant cash inflow or outflow. Additional information regarding the treatment of significant cash flows, as well as policies for valuing portfolios, calculating performance, and preparing compliant presentations is available upon request.
