Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month reporting period ended December 31, 2025, the Fund returned 8.69%, as compared to its broad-based securities market index, the Russell 3000
®
Index, which returned 17.15% and an additional index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund, the Russell Midcap
®
Value Index, which returned 11.05% over the same period.
The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by one sub-adviser: Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”).
GSAM Summary of Performance
Performance was affected by several investment themes during the period. Positioning associated with the “Themes and Trends” pillar detracted from performance, while exposure related to “High-Quality Business Models” and “Fundamental Mispricings” also weighed on results; positioning associated with the “Sentiment Analysis” pillar remained relatively flat. From a sector perspective, holdings within the materials sector were the top contributor to performance, with an overweight to the chemicals industry contributing significantly, including an overweight position in Coherent Corp., held primarily due to “Themes and Trends”-related factors, which performed well. Holdings within the consumer discretionary sector were the top detractor from performance, as an overweight position in the diversified consumer services industry was especially challenged, along with an underweight position in Robinhood Markets, Inc., held primarily due to “High-Quality Business Models”-related factors, which did not perform well.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month reporting period ended December 31, 2025, the Fund returned 6.69%, as compared to its broad-based securities market index, the Russell 3000
®
Index, which returned 17.15% and an additional index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund, the S&P MidCap 400
®
Index, which returned 7.50% over the same period.
The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by one sub-adviser: Keyridge Asset Management Limited (“Keyridge”) (formerly known as Irish Life Investment Managers Limited).
Keyridge Summary of Performance
Performance during the period was affected by heightened volatility early in the year associated with U.S. tariff policy, which contributed to a broad market drawdown, followed by a recovery beginning in April as trade tensions eased. A resilient economic
backd
rop, upward revisions to growth expectations, robust earnings, continued optimism around AI, and the resumption of the Federal Reserve’s rate cutting cycle were key factors influencing performance. Mid-cap stocks underperformed the overall market as interest rates and yields remained relatively high, which weighed on companies with higher leverage. Ciena Corp, a telecoms equipment provider, was the largest contributor to performance due to strong demand across its cloud and service provider segments and increased revenue tied to AI network infrastructure. Lumentum Holdings, a photonics company, also contributed to performance as demand for cloud and networking products supporting AI data centers remained strong. Sarepta Therapeutics, a biopharmaceutical company, detracted the most from performance amid weak sales and elevated safety concerns related to its gene therapy product ELEVIDYS. Avantor Sciences, a life sciences company, also detracted from performance where sales declines and significant goodwill impairment in its distribution reporting unit weighed on results.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month reporting period ended December 31, 2025, the Fund returned 3.31%, as compared to its broad-based securities market index, the Russell 3000
®
Index, which returned 17.15% and an additional index with investment characteristics similar to those of the Fund, the Russell Midcap
®
Growth Index, which returned 8.66% over the same period.
The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by one sub-adviser: T. Rowe Price Investment Management, Inc. (“T. Rowe Price”).
T. Rowe Price Summary of Performance
Stock selection was a detractor to performance during the period. Stock selection in consumer staples and energy contributed to performance, though the impact in consumer staples was partially offset by an overweight allocation. In contrast, unfavorable stock selection in healthcare detracted from performance but was partially offset by an overweight exposure, while security selection in the industrials and business services sector also detracted from performance.
