Thanakorn Lappattaranan/iStock via Getty Images Performance The SGA U.S. Large Cap Growth portfolio returned -11.1% (gross) and -11.8% (net) in the first quarter compared to -9.8% for the Russell 1000 Growth Index and -4.3% for the S&P 500 Index. The relative shortfall for the portfolio was most pronounced during the first two months of the quarter as performance diverged sharply between the immediate AI CapEx beneficiaries and perceived AI losers. The pressure on companies perceived to be at risk from AI disruption weighed on several positions in the portfolio, notably our software holdings. Relative performance improved, however, in March with the portfolio outperforming as geopolitical risks resurfaced with the outbreak of the Iran War which led to more cautious investor sentiment and greater appreciation for predictable growth companies. AI Disruption Fears Dominate Market Source: UBS, SGA. Data as of 3/31/2026. Highlights ▪ The SGA U.S. LCG Portfolio returned -11.1% (Gro S s) and -11.8% ( NET ) in Q1 compared to the Russell 1000 Growth Index return of -9.8% and the S&P 500 Index return of -4.3%. ▪ Relative returns were negatively impacted by the continued divergence between AI CapEx beneficiaries and perceived AI losers in software. ▪ The re-introduction of geopolitical risk and macroeconomic uncertainty shifted investor sentiment to a more cautious stance, supporting the portfolio's relative performance in March. ▪ A new position in Mastercard ( MA ) was initiated on weakness; positions in Gartner ( IT ) and UnitedHealth ( UNH ) were exited due to fundamental deterioration. ▪ The largest contributors to performance were Arm Holdings ( ARM ), CPKC, and Waste Management. The largest detractors from performance were Microsoft ( MSFT ), Intuit ( INTU ), and Salesforce ( CRM ). ▪ The portfolio continues to compound revenues and earnings in line with our estimates and is expected to generate 13% revenue and 19% earnings growth over the next three years. ▪ The portfo...

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images C3.ai, Inc. ( AI ) has gone from a promising enterprise AI company harnessing the power of AI models to a company with no clear explanation for why sales have fallen off the cliff. The founding CEO has returned to the company following a health scare after suggesting he was too involved in C3.ai in the past. My investment thesis is now ultra-bearish on the company with no clear product strategy while AI leaders report massive growth. Source: Finviz From Bad to Ugly C3.ai reported FQ4 2026 revenues fell 53% to only $51.6 million. The enterprise AI software company started the fiscal year on the path to $100-plus million in quarterly sales, riding 20%-plus growth, and ended the year just collapsing with revenues down over 50%. C3.ai beat quarterly results only after the company slashed guidance over the course of the year while the original expectations would've been for at least 20% growth on top of the $109 million reported in FQ4'25, or ~$131 million. So, while sales were down 53%, the numbers were far worse compared to the original expectations. The odd part of the earnings report is that C3.ai didn't lead with any new product development accomplishments or signals about AI tech that would drive growth in FY27 and provide the path for a turnaround. The entire earnings call focus was on restructuring the sales organization with new leadership when the AI world is led by product development and enterprise AI is under pressure due to the ability to vibe code software replacements. The company cut the workforce from 1,075 to start the last quarter to only 700 employees now after previously announcing mass layoffs . The business is on a path to already save $135 million annually, yet C3.ai guided to a total net loss from operations in FY27 of at least $128 million. C3.ai claims on their website to run 40 turnkey enterprise AI applications for business-critical needs, yet the company leads with customer success stories, not pro...
