Brown Advisory Sustainable Small-Cap Core Strategy Q1 2026 Portfolio Activity

First Financial Bancorp maintains a return on tangible common equity in the high teens, and we were able to buy the stock at an attractive valuation. We purchased shares of Guardant Health, as recent due diligence highlighted a stable competitive environment and underscored a number of positive catalysts for the company over the next several years. We exited our position in Dynatrace, Inc. to redeploy capital to other higher conviction names following the broad software de-rating.
