The month was characterized by significant volatility in the global equity market, along with persistent enthusiasm for Generative AI.

Over the past year, the prevailing \u201crisk-on\u201d market sentiment has led to a decline in the Fund\u2019s quality-growth style of investing. Although the portfolio&#8217;s market value has decreased over the last year, the underlying growth fundamentals remain strong. For the month, the Fund posted a return of -7.5% after fees and expenses, while its benchmark, the MSCI All Country World Index Net Total Returns (AUD), returned -0.2%. Since its inception in December 2017, the Fund returned 208.5%, surpassing its benchmark&#8217;s 163.8%.

Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ:WIX) is an Israel-based cloud-based web development platform for registered users and creators. On April 02, 2026, Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ:WIX) stock closed at $81.95 per share. One-month return of Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ:WIX) was -12.72%, and its shares lost 45.37% over the past 52 weeks. Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ:WIX) has a market capitalization of $4.78 billion.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Lakehouse Global Growth Fund stated the following regarding Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ:WIX) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"neo-blockquote yf-1kwbn3\">\n<p class=\"yf-1kwbn3\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START --><strong>&#8220;Wix.com Ltd.<\/strong> (NASDAQ:WIX) delivered another strong and consistent quarter, with bookings and revenue in constant currency both accelerating 13% year-over-year to $515 million and $504 million. Growth was supported not only by new users but also by higher quality customers coming through Wix\u2019s partner network who show stronger commercial intent, adopting higher subscription tiers and using more value-adding services such as payments. Underlying operating profit was broadly flat on the prior year as management reinvested in scaling the recently acquired Base44 business. Even with the reinvestment, free cash flow margins excluding acquisition-related transaction costs expanded 3 percentage points year-over-year to 32%, leaving the business comfortably above the Rule of 40 and trading at an attractive ~10 times 2026 free cash flow.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1kwbn3\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->With the core business performing well, attention this quarter shifted to Base44, Wix\u2019s newly acquired visual coding platform that enables users with limited or no coding experience to build standalone applications. Although visual coding has at times been flagged as a potential disruptor to website development tools like Wix, adoption to date has largely centred on application development rather than websites. In our view, the acquisition broadens Wix\u2019s reach into the adjacent no-code application development category, complementing its core website-building offering.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1kwbn3\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Early traction has been encouraging. In less than six months under Wix\u2019s ownership, Base44\u2019s user base has grown sevenfold to more than 2 million users, and its annual recurring revenue has increased more than tenfold, with expectations of reaching about $50 million by the end of 2025. The product is already emerging as a category leader with more than 10% of audience traffic, and management has increased investment in marketing and AI compute capacity to support this momentum. This rapid uptake creates a short-term drag on margins, as users are mostly billed monthly while new cohorts consume more compute resources early in their usage cycle. While this may weigh on margins through 2026, investment levels remain within management\u2019s control, and as Base44 scales alongside continued growth in Wix\u2019s core business, we believe the company is well placed to return to margin expansion over time.&#8221;<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: none\" data-testid=\"read-more\">\n<figure data-testid=\"article-figure-image\" class=\"yf-750ceo\">\n<div class=\"image-container yf-lglytj loader\" style=\"--max-height: 430px;\">\n<div class=\"image-wrapper yf-lglytj\" style=\"--aspect-ratio: 768 \/ 430; --img-max-width: 768px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"yf-750ceo\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Why Braze, Inc.
