Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad international equity market posted double-digit positive returns for the Period but experienced varied performance, influenced by diverse economic conditions, central bank policies and political and geopolitical developments. Still, strong performance overall was supported by a broad-based economic recovery in developed markets, a softening U.S. dollar that provided a material tailwind to U.S. dollar-denominated returns, an artificial intelligence ("AI") investment theme that moved beyond pure-play technology into the wider industrial value chain, and resilient corporate earnings.

 

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • Solactive GBS Global Markets ex United States Large & Mid Cap Index (Index) constituents in the information technology, financials and industrials sectors contributed most positively to the Index’s results during the Period.

  • Taiwan, South Korea and Japan were the top country contributors to the Index’s results.

  • Positions in Taiwan-based semiconductor company Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and South Korea-based technology companies Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix contributed most positively to the Index’s returns during the Period (4.62%, 2.53% and 1.75% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2026, respectively).

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • Index constituents in the communication services, consumer discretionary and real estate sectors detracted from the Index’s results during the Period.

  • China, India and Indonesia detracted most from the Index’s results from a country perspective.

  • Positions in China-based technology conglomerate Tencent Holdings, China-based consumer electronics and smart manufacturing company Xiaomi and Germany-based enterprise application software and business AI company SAP contributed least to the Index’s results during the Period (0.91%, 0.15% and 0.57% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2026, respectively).

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad U.S. equity market delivered strong gains overall, driven by resilient corporate earnings, solid labor data and expanding artificial intelligence ("AI") infrastructure. Monetary policy also played a crucial role, with the Federal Reserve implementing interest rate cuts in the last months of 2025 and then holding steady, as it weighed inflation that remained above target. Still, U.S. equities faced periodic volatility around AI monetization, returns on investment and debt issuance. Concurrently, geopolitical tensions, including maritime shipping disruptions and trade tariffs, drove commodity and energy market volatility. Corporate fundamentals cushioned pullbacks, with profit margins and earnings rather consistently beating consensus expectations across the information technology, industrials and health care sectors.

 

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • The information technology, health care and industrials sectors contributed most positively to the Solactive GBS United States 1000 Index’s (Index) relative results.

  • Positions in information technology companies Apple, NVIDIA and Micron Technology contributed most positively to the Index’s returns during the Period (6.37%, 7.23% and 1.52% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2026, respectively).

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • No sectors detracted from the Index’s relative results during the Period.

  • Positions in social media platforms giant Meta Platforms, entertainment services provider Netflix and information technology company Oracle contributed least to the Index’s results during the Period (1.77%, 0.48% and 0.35% of Fund net assets as of August 31, 2026, respectively).
