“We exited Monolithic Power Systems in the IT sector, rolling the proceeds into newer semiconductor additions, Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:LSCC) and Qorvo. Lattice makes programable logic devices used in a wide range of applications including PC/servers, industrial, automotive and communications equipment. The volumes in most of its end markets have been depressed since the 2022 supply chain shock, but we believe declines have stabilized and volumes should start to grow late this year into 2026. Lattice is the best positioned company in the industry, taking share from other players through innovation, and its new CEO delivered remarkable returns for investors at a prior company owned in the Select portfolio.”
