|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

The composite inception date is 04.01.1999. Effective 06.30.2023, the net of fee performance reflects the deduction of the maximum SMA bundled fee of 3.00% annually for all periods presented. Actual fees may vary by size and type of portfolio. Performance is preliminary and is annualized for periods longer than one year. Net of fees performance returns are presented net of the SMA bundled fee, which includes all charges for trading costs, advisory services, portfolio management, custody and other administrative fees. “Pure” Gross of fees performance returns do not reflect the deduction of any fees including trading costs: a client’s return will be reduced by the management fees and other expenses it may incur. Investment management fees are described in Sterling’s Form ADV 2A. Performance reflects the reinvestment of interest income and dividends and realized capital gains. The performance presented represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Performance is compared to an index: however, the volatility of an index varies greatly and investments cannot be made directly in an index. Market conditions vary from year to year and can result in a decline in market value due to material market or economic conditions.

- Over the past 12 months, our benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index, is up +29.5% as of November 30, 2024. If this year-over-year gain holds, it may be the best year for the Russell 1000 Value in over a decade. - What is interesting to us is that the return thus far in 2024 has been concentrated in the largest holdings in the index. - Where do we stand in terms of overall valuation for the index where these top companies reside? - We provide an update and observations.
