01

Interim management report

In Aesop's well-known fable about the hare and the tortoise, the hare bounds ahead after the gun fires, until, over-confident of victory in a long race, he decides to take a nap. The tortoise meanwhile perseveres at a steady pace, ever-onwards, eventually over-taking the hare and crossing the finish line in first place. Your managers have been reminded of this tale more than once during the past six months, a period when they have looked a little more tortoise than hare. SAINTS' portfolio has undoubtedly made good progress since the start of 2024, with the companies growing their earnings and dividends at a steady pace, and the Company's NAV per share (with borrowings at fair value) rising to a new record during the period. The NAV per share (with borrowings at fair value) was 561.7p as at 30 June 2024, up 4.1% year

to date. But the wider stock market has bounded ahead, up nearly 11% over the same period. Your managers have thoroughly scrutinised the holdings in the portfolio, and we firmly believe that all is well: perseverance remains the name of the game. But we owe shareholders an explanation of why the portfolio's performance has recently looked a little more pedestrian than the market.

Equity markets

This has been a remarkable six months for equity markets, with the benchmark FTSE All-World Index rising almost 11%, taking its cumulative rise over the past year to about 18%. This is heady stuff when one considers that over long periods of time the stock market has delivered an annual nominal price return of somewhere around 6-7%. (For those keeping score, the UK market as measured by the FTSE All-Share Index has risen by about 6% per annum since its inception in 1962; the US market as measured by the S&P 500 has risen a little over 7% p.a. during the same period).

Why have equity markets been so strong? If we cast our minds back to this time a year ago, many were fretting deeply about the possibility of a global recession, after a period of swift increases in interest rates to tame inflation. The narrative through the back half of 2023 was that rate hikes would torpedo growth, and equities were not the place to be, particularly with gilts at 5%. Fast-forward to today, however, and that storyline is old news. Economists (and others who make a living forecasting disaster or euphoria) are now optimistic about a 'soft landing' for most economies, and excited about the potential pro-growth benefits of reduced interest rates.

The way this has played out in the stock market is that many cyclical and economically-sensitive companies have seen a dramatic reassessment of their fortunes. A good example is the US banking giant JP Morgan, whose share price has almost doubled in the past twelve months. Or ExxonMobil, which saw its shares rise almost 20% in the first quarter of this year. As these names constitute a sizable part of the stock market, these moves have driven the index higher. This effect accounts for perhaps 1/3 of the underperformance of SAINTS' global equity portfolio against the market over the period.

Alongside 'soft landing euphoria', the other big theme in the stock market of late has been Artificial Intelligence ('AI'). This is best encapsulated by the extraordinary rise in the share price of Nvidia, the semiconductor designer whose chips are, without

a doubt, the gold standard for the intense computing power that is required to make AI work. Over the past 12 months Nvidia's revenues have soared as companies fall over themselves to place orders for its chips, excited by the potential of AI to generate profits: or at least, fearful of missing out if they don't. Its share price has soared too, making it one of the world's largest companies by market capitalisation. SAINTS does not own shares in Nvidia, and so its meteoric rise accounts, on its own, for another third of the gap between SAINTS' equity portfolio and the index.

02

Interim Financial Report 2024

The Scottish American Investment Company P.L.C.

Nvidia, it must be said, is a fascinating conundrum. Without doubt it's a special company, with a visionary leader, and a probably-enduring lead in designing AI chips. But the challenge with investing in Nvidia is that in some ways it is reminiscent of Cisco, or Nortel Networks, in the heady days of the early internet. We are currently in the middle of a capital expenditure phase for AI, where companies are rapidly trying to build capabilities, much as they splurged on Cisco's internet routers and switches to connect to the internet in the mid-1990s, or all those fibre optic cables from Nortel which telecoms companies laid down in an effort to become the pre-eminent carriers of the internet's rapidly-growing data. When customers are in "build it or miss out" mode, revenues at companies like Nvidia can

soar upwards.

But history also teaches us, whether we look back at the dotcom capex boom of the 1990s, or indeed the railway-building boom that marked the first investments for SAINTS in 1873, that this will not last forever and that, when there is euphoria, there is a good chance that supply overshoots demand, at least for a while. This can be very painful for companies which sell cables, or locomotives.

So there are two reasons that SAINTS does not own Nvidia. The obvious one is that it pays a minimal dividend - it yields 0.02% - but the subtler one is that the investment outcome from here is

a long way from the predictable dependability and resilience which, along with growth, is the bedrock of SAINTS' approach.

Long-time shareholders will know that SAINTS is focused on the steady long-term compounding of earnings and dividends. We self-identify as tortoises. We invest in companies which we expect to grow their earnings on average around 10% per annum, faster than the long-term market average of around 5%; indeed actually quite fast for a tortoise! From experience we have found that the most cyclical stocks, like JP Morgan or ExxonMobil, are not usually a good fit with the steady long-term compounding and resilient dividends we seek.

Our approach has proved rewarding to shareholders, providing capital and income growth well-ahead of inflation over the long term, with a steady dividend that shareholders can rely on through thick and thin (the last cut was in 1938). But our differentiated approach does mean that SAINTS' portfolio can lag behind in times when cyclical names, or large index constituents which we don't own, are rocketing upwards.

SAINTS' portfolio

While a third of SAINTS, performance gap comes from cyclicals, and another third from not owning Nvidia, the remaining third comes from a residual of ups and downs during the past six months. Let's take a closer look at some of the individual holdings in SAINTS' portfolio.

During the first half of the year, three investments fared particularly well: Schneider Electric, Atlas Copco and Novo Nordisk. All continued to report strong earnings growth. Schneider is benefiting from structural trends towards electrification, as a leader in the provision of low- and medium-voltage electrical equipment, such as boards to manage electrics in buildings. A particularly strong area of growth has been datacenters: these complex buildings require good power management to be efficient. Schneider is seeing good volume and price growth in this business, which is driving earnings and dividend growth.

Atlas Copco also reported continued solid growth, in its businesses ranging from compressors to vacuum pumps, and it has additionally been a beneficiary of the improvement in sentiment towards cyclical names mentioned earlier. Atlas is what we would describe as a light cyclical, rather than a deep cyclical, and therefore fits our philosophy of steady compounding and resilient dividends.

Novo Nordisk continues to see strong demand for its appetite suppressants, which help patients combat weight gain, and during the first half of the year it received news that its 'Wegovy' product has been approved in China, a potentially massive market. We view demand for Novo's pharmaceuticals as more "opex" than "capex" for customers, and with only 1 million patients currently taking Wegovy, out of an estimated 800 million globally who potentially could benefit from it, we see a long runway for further growth.

On the negative side, Sonic Healthcare, the Australia-based operator of a global network of pathologists' labs, saw its earnings and share price fall as the temporary boost to its profits from COVID- related testing, which was still ongoing a year ago, finally dissipated in the recent half year. We have prodded its outlook and continue to believe that rising testing volumes worldwide, positive price/ mix from ever-more sophisticated tests ordered by doctors, and ongoing cost control efforts by the company, will drive steady compounding of earnings in the years ahead.

03

B3, the operator of equity and derivative exchanges in Brazil, also saw a cyclical downturn in trading volumes; we believe this is temporary and its long-term growth potential remains strong. Finally Edenred, the France-based provider of meal and other employee-related vouchers, saw its share price fall after the Italian government said it was re-opening an old investigation into whether

the company was complying with the rules of a particular tender some years ago. We continue to investigate this, to make sure nothing untoward has happened, but so far we're comfortable with what we've seen and continue to foresee growth in the years ahead.

Earnings review

We mentioned earlier that we have thoroughly scrutinised the portfolio to check all is in order with SAINTS' investments. This is a reference to an important exercise that we conduct annually: a detailed examination of the financial results of every company in the portfolio. The goal is to check whether the earnings growth of each investment is meeting our expectations. We take each company's latest reported annual results and clean up the numbers to get a clear understanding of the profit growth each has delivered. This is more complicated than it sounds, because many factors distort the headline results of a company: currency moves, acquisitions and disposals, or the treatment of certain accounting items.

Once we have cleaned up the numbers, and have a good read on each company's underlying earnings growth for the past year, we then stack these numbers against their cleaned-up results from previous years. This done, the key metric we look at is five-year compound growth in clean earnings per share. By looking at five-year growth rates we isolate some of the noise from economic cycles or years like 2020. We get a good read on long-term

profit progression.

As mentioned above, our philosophy is to invest in steady growth and in practice we look for companies which we expect to compound their EPS by around 10% per annum for a decade or more. This forms the bedrock of delivering above-inflation dividend and capital growth to SAINTS' shareholders.

Aiming for 10% should ensure that even if we get some investments wrong, as we inevitably will, and even allowing for lower returns from SAINTS' small non-equity portfolio, the portfolio's capital and dividend growth should have a good likelihood

of beating inflation and the broader stock market.

So what did we find, after conducting our review this year? We found that over the last five years, on a capital-weighted basis, the portfolio's companies have successfully delivered slightly above our 10% EPS growth hurdle. (We should note for full transparency this number reflects the current portfolio, which will have changed a bit over the past five years, but as our turnover is low, particularly in relation to complete sales and new purchases, this impact should be modest.)

As one would expect there is a range of outcomes at the stock level. The vast majority of holdings have broadly met or exceeded our growth target, some spectacularly so. The top five include such diverse names as gaming company Netease, stock exchange B3, and sportswear company Anta Sports, all of which have compounded their EPS by more than 15% per annum. It also features two technology-related holdings: TSMC and Microsoft. Apart from Netease, bought at the end of 2020, the other four companies have been held for more than decade.

At the other end of the scale, a few holdings have disappointed. This is almost inevitable in an actively managed portfolio, and is one of the reasons why it is important that SAINTS' portfolio is well diversified. But any holdings that fall short of our growth hurdle are subsequently placed under the microscope.

We need to prod them further and have a good think about whether they deserve to continue as holdings … or should be upgraded.

Two examples. When we conducted this exercise last year we identified Want Want, the Chinese food company, as a holding that had fallen short of our hurdle over the past five years. After conducting further research on the ground in China, investigating whether this had been cyclical or structural, we decided its prospects had deteriorated, and so we sold the shares.

Contrast this with Amadeus, the airline IT company, where EPS growth has been negative over the past five years. Further review has confirmed the major problem it has faced has simply been the slow recovery of air travel since COVID. We are convinced that having bottomed in 2021, its future still looks bright: indeed most of Amadeus' competitors have been hugely weakened during the past few years, and it is now taking market share from them. We believe the next several years are likely to see strong growth of at least 10% p.a (global air travel has indeed just passed its pre-COVID peak) and have concluded that we should continue to hold the shares.

04

Interim Financial Report 2024

The Scottish American Investment Company P.L.C.

In summary, SAINTS' equity portfolio is meeting our stretching 10% per annum growth target. Excellent growth from the likes of Atlas Copco, TSMC, Microsoft and many more like them is driving good underlying earnings growth. A minority of names has fallen short, but we have them under close inspection and will continue divesting and re-investing where appropriate to ensure that SAINTS remains well-placed for growth in the years ahead. We are confident in the continued strength and prospects for long-term compound growth of the underlying companies.

ESG

We continue to monitor and engage with holdings where we see potential ESG concerns. Recently we have focused on many of the portfolio's Consumer Packaged Goods companies, as these names potentially face challenges to growth from changing expectations around packaging recyclability, nutritional content, supply chain auditing, and similar matters. An example is the emerging debate about so-called"ultra-processed foods" ('UPF'). This area is characterised by nascent science but growing consumer concern.

As part of our review we drew on multiple sources, including speaking to the companies themselves. For example we engaged with Nestlé, speaking with its Deputy Head of Corporate Regulatory and Scientific Affairs and Assistant VP & Global Head of Food and Industry Affairs, to understand their approach to UPF within their portfolio. We had similar conversations at other food and beverage companies.

These conversations have given us confidence that all of our holdings are on the right track. For example when it comes to recyclability, Nestlé has upgraded its packaging to the point that more than 86% is now either recyclable, reusable or compostable. This is quite some way ahead of the average food company, and positions Nestlé well for the future as more and more consumers take care of their environmental footprint.

It is important that companies stay front-of-foot with evolving consumer needs. We believe this is essential to continued growth in the long-term.

We are happy to see that SAINTS' holdings are taking this seriously and appear well-positioned for the future.

Other asset classes

An advantage of the investment trust structure is the ability to borrow at attractive rates and long maturities, and invest this for higher returns than the cost of borrowing. SAINTS has modest debt of £95m, implying gearing of less than 10%, with a blended fixed interest rate just below 3%. It invests this in a mix of properties, bonds and infrastructure names.

Performance in these other asset classes is typically mixed over any short-term period, with some doing better and some worse, and this was the case once again in the first half of the year. The infrastructure names and the fixed income portfolio showed negative returns whilst the property portfolio made a positive if modest contribution to returns.

The infrastructure holdings continue to be buffeted by volatile expectations of interest rates. In the UK, we have an investment in renewables through Greencoat UK Wind, and an investment in assets in North America and Europe through BBGI Infrastructure. Both companies have been impacted by widening discounts to NAV during this period of higher interest rates, though we continue to have confidence in the quality of these assets and the cash flows that fund their attractive dividends.

In SAINTS' fixed income portfolio, there was broad weakness in Emerging Markets bonds due to interest rates staying higher for longer than expected. Our investments are mostly in Central and Latin American countries, where interest rates remain much higher than prevailing inflation rates. For example, Mexico's inflation rate has fallen to 4% while its interest rates remain elevated at 11%. This provides investors with a significant return opportunity, particularly given that these Emerging Markets' Central banks are likely to cut interest rates once the US Federal Reserve starts doing so, providing a tailwind to Emerging Markets bonds going forward.

The positive contribution from the property portfolio came from the income generated over the period, with the capital return of the portfolio marginally negative over the period. Property markets have been challenging for the past couple of years,

and investors have rightly had questions about the ongoing valuations of properties on the balance sheets of investment trusts. But the manager

of SAINTS' properties has steered clear of the most-affected sectors. With property valuations holding up, at least for SAINTS, we hope this provides re-assurance to shareholders. During the past six months, the property managers have

05

continued to look for opportunities to improve the portfolio, both through extending and improving leases and through sales and purchases. The allocation to property has risen over the reporting period, largely due to proceeds from sales towards the end of 2023 being reinvested in two new properties.

Transactions

Our philosophy of finding and holding great companies for the long-term naturally results in fairly low turnover within the portfolio, as long as we are doing our job well. During the first half of 2024, we made a new investment in Swedish drilling equipment company Epiroc, and we divested shares in GSK, Dolby Labs and Kering. More details on the rationale for these transactions follows below.

Epiroc is a Swedish company selling high-value,mission-critical drilling equipment to mining and construction companies. Its expertise in hard-rock drilling and strong track-record of innovation have made Epiroc a global leader in a consolidated industry. There are many structural drivers supporting growing demand for their products and a large and growing installed base of equipment supports steadily-rising demand for new attachments, spare parts and maintenance, which are provided by a strong network of highly-specialised technicians. Representing close to 70% of revenues, this part of the business helps reduce the inherent cyclicality of its end-markets and provides steady cashflows, allowing Epiroc to reinvest for growth whilst paying an attractive and resilient dividend.

GSK is a British pharmaceutical company which we have held for more than 5 years in the portfolio. Our investment case had two main assumptions: that the company would sharpen its commercial focus under new management, and that the appointment of well-respected chief scientific officer, Hal Barron, would lead to a rejuvenation of the company's drug pipeline. Since then, the commercial turnaround has happened, but the second part of our investment case has failed to materialise and indeed Hal Barron left the company.

Dolby, of the ubiquitous logo, makes software for audio and vision applications, such as the sound encoded in broadcast TV. Held since 2012, the shares have delivered a cumulative return of more than 200% (in GBP), or about 10% per annum and slightly ahead of global equities over the period. Although these returns have been solid, we have been underwhelmed by the pace of revenue

and profit growth at the company. Our analysis is that structurally, the company faces an ongoing headwind from pricing, whilst its highly technical engineers' pay keeps rising. Dolby is struggling to grow its profits at an attractive rate. We do not see this fundamentally changing and so we have divested from the holding.

Luxury group Kering, owner of brands such as Yves Saint Laurent, has been a successful investment since our first purchase in 2016. At the time, we anticipated a successful turnaround in the fortunes of its flagship brand, Gucci, under a new creative director. This led to several years of strong growth in profits, and ultimately resulted in a cumulative return on our initial investment of ~180%, compared with ~130% for the wider stock market over the same period. However, in the past 18 months, the company appears to have gone off track. The creative director has left, we are not convinced by the new strategy for Gucci, and there has been a great deal of churn in the management team. The company is now quite leveraged, both operationally and financially, and we are concerned that it will see a prolonged period of weak sales and potentially even financial difficulties going forward. With its prospects looking unattractive, we divested from the holding.

As well as funding the purchase of Epiroc the proceeds from these disposals were reinvested in existing holdings. Outside the equity portfolio, notable transactions were two new investments in the property portfolio (inflation-linked rentals from a service station near Gatwick and an industrial warehouse in the south of England) which were funded by disposals from sovereign bonds.

Conclusion and Outlook

SAINTS' NAV per share reached a record level in the first half of the year. The underlying growth of the portfolio remains strong, if a little more 'tortoise' than the market's 'hare'. We remain staunch believers that focusing on companies which steadily compound their earnings and dividends ever-higher will stand SAINTS' shareholders in good stead in the long-term.

Ultimately, we expect this approach to drive not only real capital growth in the portfolio, but also inflation-beating income growth. This is core to SAINTS, objectives: a resilient dividend which grows ahead of UK inflation. All of the equity holdings pay dividends, and over time we expect these dividends to follow earnings growth, underpinning SAINTS' ability to pay a growing dividend to shareholders backed by natural income.

06

Interim Financial Report 2024

The Scottish American Investment Company P.L.C.

At this half-way point, it is always a little unclear exactly how SAINTS' income growth will play out in the remainder of the year. On the one hand portfolio earnings and dividend growth has been robust. But on the other exchange rates remain an unknown, and recently we have seen Sterling strengthening. As most of SAINTS' investments are outside the UK, this introduces uncertainty to the growth rate in income.

However, the Company is able to draw on reserves if necessary: an advantage of the investment trust structure. With UK inflation trending down towards 2%, we are optimistic that income growth from SAINTS' investments should once again allow the Board to increase the dividend at a rate above inflation. In the meantime your managers will continue to steer the portfolio in pursuit of steady growth, and we will report back again at the full year results.
