2025 Mid-Year Global Outlook for Value Webinar

July 18, 2025

Co-CIO and Portfolio Manager John Goetz and Portfolio Manager Evan Fox discuss our mid-year global outlook and how markets react in volatile times, hosted by Director of Business Development and Client Services, Paul Whymper-Williams.

Their discussion covers Pzena’s perspective on the turbulence that has defined 2025, value’s role in volatile markets, and where we’re finding opportunity today. The discourse is followed by a live Q&A session.

Q2 COMMENTARY

HOW DOWNTURNS CREATE LONG-TERM OPPORTUNITY

We explore market volatility, which, while unsettling, is usually short-lived and has historically created excellent long-term opportunities for patient investors focused on valuation.

This recording is for institutional investors, and in the UK for professional investors and eligible counterparties only. Any views and statements expressed in this recording are those of Pzena Investment Management, are based on internal research, and are subject to change. It does not constitute investment advice. Your capital is at risk and past performance is not an indicator of future performance.

These materials are intended solely for informational purposes. The views expressed reflect the current views of Pzena Investment Management (“PIM”) as of the date hereof and are subject to change. PIM is a registered investment adviser registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Neither the speaker nor PIM undertake to advise you of any changes in the views expressed herein. There is no guarantee that any projection, forecast, or opinion in this material will be realized. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

All investments involve risk, including loss of principal. The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of economic or political changes or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Investments in foreign securities involve political, economic and currency risks, greater volatility and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater for investments in Emerging Markets. Investments in small-cap or mid-cap companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility than larger companies. PIM’s strategies emphasize a “value” style of investing, which targets undervalued companies with characteristics for improved valuations. This style of investing is subject to the risk that the valuations never improve or that returns on “value” securities may not move in tandem with the returns on other styles of investing or the stock market in general.

The specific portfolio securities discussed in this document were selected for inclusion based on their ability to help you better understand our investment process. They do not represent all of the securities purchased or sold during the quarter, and it should not be assumed that investments in such securities were or will be profitable. PIM is a discretionary investment manager and does not make “recommendations” to buy or sell securities. Holdings vary among client accounts as a result of different product strategies having been selected thereby. Holdings also may vary among client accounts as a result of opening dates, cash flows, tax strategies, etc. There is no assurance that any securities discussed herein remain in our portfolios at the time you receive this presentation or that securities sold have not been repurchased.

This recording does not constitute a current or past recommendation, an offer, or solicitation of an offer to purchase any securities or provide investment advisory services and should not be construed as such.
