Past performance is not indicative of future results. All investments involve risk, including possible loss of principal. The PSN Top Guns 'Bull & Bear Masters' designation is a third-party award based on objective quantitative criteria (3-year returns and up/down capture ratios) and is not a guarantee of future performance. JAG Capital Management did not pay to enter or influence this award; a license was obtained to use the award recognition in marketing materials. The award is given by Informa Financial Intelligence's PSN, an independent investment manager database, based on gross composite performance data. Net performance (after fees) for the period was lower.

Global Value Investment Corporation Named to PSN Top Guns List of Best Performing Strategies for Q1 2025
MILWAUKEE, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Value Investment Corporation (GVIC) announced today it has been named to the celebrated PSN Top Guns List of best performing separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies for Q1 2025. The highly anticipated list, published by Zephyr, remains one of the most important references for investors and asset managers. "Q1 2025 presented a fascinating market narrative marked by significant rotation and global shifts. Success demanded adaptability, deep market understanding, and strategic positioning," says PSN Product Manager Nick Williams. "PSN Top Guns managers demonstrated exceptional skill in navigating these complex dynamics, where value sectors outperformed growth, international markets showed strength, and policy shifts created both challenges and opportunities. Their expertise in reading and responding to these evolving market conditions continues to showcase the enduring value of active management in separately managed accounts." GVIC's recognition across multiple categories reflects the firm's disciplined approach to value investing and its ability to identify opportunities where price dislocations create long-term value potential. The awards demonstrate the effectiveness of GVIC's investment philosophy over a multi-year period that rewarded patience, disciplined fundamental analysis, and contrarian positioning. "These awards validate our commitment to principled, value-oriented investing and our belief that rigorous fundamental analysis coupled with concentrated portfolios creates an information advantage that enables superior long-term performance," said JP Geygan, CEO and President of Global Value Investment Corporation. "In a quarter marked by significant market volatility, our strategies demonstrated resilience through disciplined security selection and our long-term investment horizon. We remain focused on building generational wealth for our clients through thoughtful capital allocation and our unwavering commitment to investing excellence." Through PSN's proprietary performance screens, the PSN Top Guns awards products in six proprietary categories across more than 75 universes based on continued performance over time. GVIC's Concentrated Equity Value Strategy (CEVS) and Total Return Value Strategy (TRVS) were named to PSN Top Guns 3-Year Category awards, meaning each strategy had one of the top ten returns for the three-year period. Below are the honors that were awarded for each strategy. Concentrated Equity Value Strategy (CEVS): 3-Year Micro Cap Universe 3-Year US Value Universe Total Return Value Strategy (TRVS): 3-Year US Balanced Universe The Concentrated Equity Value Strategy focuses on capital concentration in a limited number of high-conviction equity investments, allowing GVIC's investment team to devote substantial time to understanding the determinants of long-term value realization. This approach leverages the firm's exhaustive knowledge of portfolio investments to create significant information advantages. The Total Return Value Strategy applies value-oriented investment principles across a diversified portfolio of individual equity and corporate debt securities, and is designed to deliver long-term capital appreciation while managing risk through thoughtful asset allocation and security selection. Both strategies reflect GVIC's belief that short-term market inefficiencies create opportunities for disciplined investors willing to arbitrage dislocations between price and intrinsic value, and that value-creating initiatives often bear fruit over periods measured in years, not quarters. GVIC did not provide any compensation to PSN, Zephyr, or Informa Intelligence, Inc. for this ranking.
