Security Valuation - The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for business. Securities listed on the Exchange (and other national exchanges including NASDAQ) are valued at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. Listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Securities traded on foreign exchanges are valued based upon the last sales price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available or securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Davis Selected Advisers, L.P. (“Davis Advisors” or “Adviser”), the Fund’s investment adviser, identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of their respective exchanges will be fair valued using a fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Pricing Committee. The Pricing Committee considers all facts it deems relevant that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Adviser’s portfolio management team, when determining the fair value of a security. To assess the appropriateness of security valuations, the Adviser may consider (i) comparing prior day prices and/or prices of comparable securities; (ii) comparing sale prices to the prior or current day prices and challenge those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third-party pricing service or broker source; (iii) new rounds of financing; (iv) the performance of the market or the issuer’s industry; (v) the liquidity of the security; (vi) the size of the holding in a fund; and/or (vii) any other appropriate information. The determination of a security’s fair value price often involves the consideration of a number of subjective factors and is therefore subject to the unavoidable risk that the value assigned to a security may be higher or lower than the security’s value would be if a reliable market quotation for the security was readily available. Fair value determinations are subject to review by the Fund’s Board of Trustees at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. Fair valuation methods used by the Fund may include, but are not limited to, valuing securities initially at cost (excluding commissions) and subsequently adjusting the value due to: additional transactions by the issuer, changes in company specific fundamentals, and changes in the value of similar securities. Values may be further adjusted for any discounts related to security-specific resale restrictions.

Short-term investments purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

The Adviser’s valuation procedures are reviewed and subject to approval by the Board of Trustees. There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation procedures during the period.

              Fair Value Measurements - Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal market for the investment. Various inputs are used to determine the fair value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 – 
quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 – 
other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment
speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 – 
significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of
investments)

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities nor can it be assured that the Fund can obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security.

*Includes certain securities trading primarily outside the U.S. whose value the Fund adjusted as a result of significant market movements following the close of local trading.

The following table reconciles the valuation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) during the period on Level 3 securities still held at September 30, 2022 was $(14,704). The cost of purchases or proceeds from sales may include securities received or delivered through corporate actions or exchanges.

The significant unobservable input listed in the above table is used in the fair value measurement of common stock, and if changed, would affect the fair value of the Fund’s investments. The “Impact to Valuation from an Increase in Input” represents the change in fair value measurement resulting from an increase in the corresponding input. A decrease in the input would have the opposite effect.
