The composite includes all fully discretionary portfolios invested in Peregrine’s Large Cap Growth strategy. Net performance includes the effect of advisory or performance fees, while gross performance does not. Both gross and net performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends and interest, and the deduction of brokerage or other commissions, and any other expenses that a client would have paid or actually paid, other than custodial fees. Performance results for the period 1/1/83 through 1/1/88 is for accounts managed by John Dale while he was employed by Peregrine’s former parent company and managed the same strategy. Mr. Nussbaum joined Peregrine 9/1/90 and co-managed the strategy with Mr. Dale from that time until 6/30/15, when Mr. Dale retired from Peregrine. Mr. Donohue joined the team 1/1/11. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. As with any investment there is always potential for gains as well as the possibility of losses.
