PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
Top contributors to performance:
Market intelligence and ESG factor composites, as all factors outperformed.
Among countries, Taiwan was the top contributor. Within the country, an overweight position in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, a contract chipmaker, was one of the top performers. It was held overweight due to its high scores in short sell and momentum factors. The company’s stock surged, driven by soaring demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips, which resulted in record revenues and strong growth in AI-related hardware sales, which exceeded earnings expectations.
Among sectors, materials was the top contributor. An overweight position in Gold Fields, a South African gold miner, was the top performer within the sector. The company saw its stock rise due to surging gold prices. The company’s profits jumped, supported by strong market demand and production at its new Chilean mine. The company was held overweight due to its high scores in prediction and quality factors.
Top detractors from performance:
Management & governance factor composite detracted from performance.
Among countries, South Korea was the top detractor. An overweight position in Kia was the top detractor as the automaker saw its stock fall, driven by lagged earnings and U.S. tariffs on imported cars, hurting investor confidence and raising concerns about profitability and competitiveness. The company was held overweight due to its high factor scores in value and short sell (not held at period-end).
Among sectors, health care was the top detractor. An overweight in Dr Reddy’s Laboratories, an Indian pharmaceutical company, was the top laggard in the sector. The decline of the stock was due to weak earnings, lower-than-expected margins, slow growth in India, and limited new product momentum in the U.S. amid tough generic drug competition. The company was held overweight due to its high scores in value, ESG score, and prediction factors. The Fund existed the position during reporting period.

HOW HAS THE FUND CHANGED?
On May 31, 2023, Franklin Resources, Inc. (“Franklin Templeton”) and Great-West Lifeco Inc., the parent company of Putnam U.S. Holdings I, LLC (“Putnam Holdings”), announced that they had entered into a definitive agreement for a subsidiary of Franklin Templeton to acquire Putnam Holdings in a stock and cash transaction (the “Transaction”). The Transaction was completed on January 1, 2024. As part of the Transaction, your Fund’s investment advisor, Putnam Investment Management, LLC (“Putnam Management”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Putnam Holdings, became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Templeton.

The new contracts were identical to the previous contracts, except for the effective dates, initial terms, updates to fund names as necessary to reflect previous name changes, and certain non-substantive changes.
