For the six months ending 30 June 2018, the net asset value of Class SGD Acc of the Fund increased6.39%, outperforming the benchmark MSCI World Healthcare Index, which gained 3.56% (in SingaporeDollar terms) while the net asset value of Class USD Dist increased 4.25%, underperforming thebenchmark, which increased 1.50% (in United States Dollar terms).

The Fund is sub-managed by Wellington Management Singapore Pte Ltd and the commentary thatfollows reflects the views of the sub-manager.

The portfolio’s outperformance was due primarily to stock selection in medical technology andbiopharma.Withinmedical technology,Boston Scientificwas a top contributor to the portfolio. The stockoutperformed in the first quarter of 2018 as fundamental progress remained strong and pipeline updateswere well received by the market. In the second quarter, Boston Scientific continued to showmarket-leading organic growth in medical technology, largely due to management’s strategy to pivot the

portfolio towards higher growth end-markets over the last five years. In addition, management’scontinued focus on operational efficiency helped drive further profitability improvements and we seemoreroom ahead.While the launch of the Lotus Edge transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has beenpushed back until 2019, pipeline initiatives in atrial fibrillation, neuromodulation, urology/pelvic repair andelectrophysiology should continue to position the company attractively within their sector.

Loxo Oncology, a biotechnology company developing precision oncology drugs with three programs inclinical development, was a top contributor within the biopharma mid cap sector. During the secondquarter, the company announced that its lead drug larotrectinib was accepted for priority review by the USFood and Drug Administration for NTRK/Trk-driven solid tumours. In addition, the company presentedcompelling clinical data for its second molecule, LOXO-292, in RET-driven tumours at the AmericanSociety of Clinical Oncology annual meeting. We believe Loxo is a leading oncology biotech with furtherupside based on its pipeline assets.

The top relative contributors to returns were Johnson & Johnson, Loxo Oncology, Boston Scientific,BeiGene and Agios Pharmaceutical.

The key relative detractors were Portola Pharmaceuticals, Alkermes, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals,TESARO and Incyte.

In terms of country exposure, investments in theUnited States,China and Switzerland generated mostof the weight’s outperformance. As at end June 2018, the Fund had the following country asset allocation:United States (69.69%), Ireland (7.19%), Japan (4.89%), United Kingdom (4.13%), China (2.18%),Switzerland (1.99%),Netherlands (1.66%),Belgium (1.21%) and others (2.50%), with the remainder incash (4.56%).

Economic and Market Review

The Health Care sector has performed generally in line with the broader market year-to-date. The smalland midcap biopharma stocks have somewhat outperforming larger-cap biopharma, driven both bycontinuing innovation and pipeline successes in the small-to-midcap space as well as a number ofacquisitions that commanded significant premiums. We are also encouraged by the strong number ofbiopharma Initial Public Offerings that in our view underline the continuing flow of innovation intherapeutics.

Outlook and Fund Strategy

The Health Care sector has advanced strongly since the 2016 US elections, but a number ofuncertainties have recently driven stock volatility. We believe that meaningful structural reform of drugpricing is unlikely in the foreseeable future, regardless of political rhetoric. However, we are mindful of therisks. Regarding efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare), we still believe that most of themillions of Americans who have obtained insurance coverage in the past few years will retain coverage insome form, whatever adjustments might be made.

As Health Care companies continue to share additional information about the implications of the US taxreform bill passed in December 2017, we remain of the view that the bill will be generally favourable forthe industry. Large-cap multinational companies should benefit from cash repatriation, providing free

access to cash flows, some of which we expect to see redeployed into mergers and acquisitions. Thatsaid, we expect sizeable variation between both companies and sub-sectors within the Health Careindustry.

In selecting stocks for the portfolio, we strive to identify companies that develop innovative products andprovide a true value proposition. We believe that such companies should be comparatively wellpositioned over the longer term, despite inevitable political and regulatory changes.
