FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT DISCLOSURE
One of our most important responsibilities as mutual fund managers is to communicate with shareholders in an open and direct manner. Some of our comments in our letters to shareholders are based on current management expectations and are considered "forward-looking statements." Actual future results, however, may prove to be different from our expectations. You can identify forward-looking statements by words such as "estimate", "may", "will", "expect", "believe",
"plan" and other similar terms. We cannot promise future returns. Our opinions are a reflection of our best judgment at the time this report is compiled, and we disclaim any obligation to update or alter forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

At Oakmark, we are long-term investors. We attempt to identify growing businesses that are managed to benefit their shareholders. We will purchase stock in those businesses only when priced substantially below our estimate of intrinsic value. After purchase, we patiently wait for the gap between stock price and intrinsic value to close.
"What is smart at one price is stupid at another."
-Warren Buffett
The S&P 5001 returned 31% in 2019. With the exception of its 32% return in 2013, this was the S&P 500's largest annual gain in the past 20 years. The Oakmark Fund produced a return of 27% for the year and Oakmark Select returned 28%. Compared to almost anything other than the S&P 500, those are very good numbers and exceeded almost all beginning-of-the-year predictions for what a mutual fund would return in 2019. Still, for the third straight year, both Oakmark and Oakmark Select returned less than the S&P 500. We are encouraged that the past quarter showed signs of a turnboth funds outperformed a strong market. But given that we and our shareholders expect our Funds to outperform the S&P 500 over the long term, we wanted to focus this report on our relative performance as opposed to our strong absolute performance. We hope this will help our shareholders answer this important question: "Did Oakmark trail because value investing is, as a strategy, underperforming? Or is Oakmark doing a poor job of implementing its strategy?"
To answer these questions, let's first look at how value performed in 2019. You've probably heard of the "Dogs of the Dow" theory, which states that the 10 cheapest stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average2 (based on dividend yield) tend to outperform that index over the following year. And from 2000 through 2018, this held true: the "Dogs" outperformed the Dow by an average of 150 basis points per year. But in 2019, the 10 "Dogs" underperformed the other 20 stocks in the Dow by a whopping 1770 basis points, returning 13% versus 30%.
Using another value measure, if, at the beginning of 2019, you had bought the 50 cheapest S&P 500 stocks based on price-to-book3 value, you would have underperformed the rest of the S&P 500 by over 500 basis points for the year. Similarly, if you bought the 50 stocks with the lowest expected 2019 EPS4 growth, your portfolio would have underperformed the 50 highest expected growth stocks by 830 basis points over the year. Consistent with that, the Russell 1000 Value Index5, an index composed of lower priced stocks relative to earnings and book value, underperformed the Russell 1000 Growth Index6 by 990 basis points in 2019. Given these results, it's no surprise that Morningstar reports7 that large-cap value funds as an aggregate underperformed large-cap growth funds by 690 basis points in 2019.
Undoubtedly, we made our share of mistakes at Oakmark in 2019. But the data suggest that our much bigger problem was that investors were not very concerned about valuation levels. Though this can be frustrating, it also gives us the opportunity to start the year with a portfolio of stocks that our research suggests is at a larger discount to the market than is typical.
To examine these opportunities, let's take a step back and compare U.S. equities with the bond market. Many investors think a 10-year U.S. Treasury bond is a riskless investment because the U.S. Treasury not paying its debts is unthinkable. And if you rule out default, except for inflation risk, it would be risk-freebut only if it is held to maturity. However, if you hold that bond for a shorter period, its total return will be a combination of its coupon yield plus the change in value caused by interest rate changes. For example, if interest rates rise to just 2.1%, a 10-year Treasury bond that currently yields 1.9% will generate a negative one-year return. And good luck to those pension funds relying on 30-year Treasuries repeating their 7% annualized return from the past decade. That will only happen if their yield, starting at 2.3% today, goes to negative 1.2% a decade from now. I guess nothing is impossible, but this outcome seems highly unlikely. Fixed income investors who ignore the impact of interest rate changes have a lot in common with equity investors who ignore the impact that movement in P/E8 multiples have on stock prices.
I sometimes get frustrated with legal edits that don't allow me to say things like, "Alphabet is a great business." Despite the company's demonstrably superior financial metrics, that statement is an opinion, not a fact. So, when my writing comes back from editing, it is often filled with new insertions like, "we believe," "in our opinion," "it could be the case" and so on. At times, it feels as if I have to write, "Two plus two, in our opinion, equals four." (To be clear, our lawyers aren't to blame. Rather, it's our industry's history of bad actors who stretched the truth that have led to increased regulation.) Because of this, I'm excited that I can write something definitive about stock prices: a stock's price always equals its price-to-earnings ratio times its earnings-per-share, or P= P/E x EPS.
As value investors, we pay close attention to P/E and base most of our investments on the premise that a stock's current P/E ratio is too low. If a stock moves to what we believe is a fair multiple, the result is a higher price. Occasionally, we have a strong non-consensus view on earnings potential, such as when we believed that Baxter's new management team had an opportunity to nearly double margins. Likewise, as the 2008 recession came to a close, we believed that earnings would get back to "normal" over our seven-year time horizona decidedly more positive outlook than most investors had at the time.
Usually, however, we don't quarrel much with consensus earnings forecasts. Instead, we believe that our stocks will benefit from higher P/E multiples. That was our view in 2000 when we avoided technology stocks that were selling above the S&P 500's 30 times multiple and instead owned single-digit P/E stocks, such as consumer packaged goods, industrials and financials. Today, you can see this same logic at work in our bank and cyclical holdings, with many selling at single-digit P/Es, and our

avoidance of utilities, consumer packaged goods and REITs9 that trade at P/Es in the 20s.
Although the formula P=P/E x EPS highlights that estimating future P/E is just as important as forecasting EPS, investors typically alternate being obsessed with one factor and then the other. The collapse of the tech bubble in 2000 was a time when investors stopped paying higher and higher prices for the fastest growers and quickly pivoted to low P/E stocks. And today, just like during the height of the tech bubble, analysts are focusing much more on a company's earnings than on the company's appropriate P/E multiple. It's not the analysts' fault. After all, their job is to earn commissions from their clients, and today, most of their clients are paying them to focus on earnings predictions.
But this focus on earnings instead of valuation has led to some veryshall we sayinteresting analyst reports, including the following "takes" we've seen on our own holdings:
• One analyst wrote that he believed, as we do, that DXC's new CEO will restructure the company and largely eliminate the quality gap between DXC and its public peers over the next three years. Yet, in the same report, the analyst set the company's target P/E at a 30% discount to its peersunchanged from its historical average, despite its improved competitive stance.
• An in-depth report on Lear highlighted the company's many advantages compared to other auto parts businesses that sell for between 5 and 11 times EBITDA10. But then the analyst computed Lear's new target price using a multiple of 4.8 times EBITDA. Why? That was left to the reader's imagination.
• A report on CBRE Group touted the company's improved business mix. Over the past few years, CBRE's maintenance outsourcing segment has grown rapidly compared to its more cyclical brokerage segmenthistorically the larger part of the business. Importantly, the market tends to value recurring income, like that from service businesses, at a much higher P/E than businesses based on one-time transactions. Nevertheless, this still concluded that CBRE is fairly priced because its current P/E is approximately at its 15-year average.
• A report on Constellation Brands kept the company's target P/E the sameat 17 timesdespite the company's recent purchase of a large interest in Canopy Growth Corporation. Canopy's losses reduce Constellation's reported EPS by about $0.85 so the analyst is inadvertently valuing Constellation's Canopy investment at negative $14 per Constellation share, despite its market value being positive $14.
• Another report noted that big banks are safer and more competitively advantaged today than at any time in recent history. Yet it concluded that these banks are fully valued at their current price of 10 times earningswhich is a P/E roughly the same as their 30-year average. The report never explained why the improved business fundamentals shouldn't be rewarded with a higher P/E multiple.
The largest industry weighting in our portfolios, financials, demonstrates why we believe our Funds will benefit when
valuations become a bigger determinant of prices. In the Oakmark Fund, for example, we own 10 stocks in the financials sector, comprising about 30% of the portfolio. Their median P/E on expected 2021 earnings is 9 times, compared to the S&P 500 at 16 times. Median price-to-book is 1.2 times and dividend yield is 2.3%, compared to the S&P 500 at 3.6 times book and a 1.9% yield. So, on earnings, assets and yield, the banks appear much cheaper than the S&P 500. Normally, stocks that look that cheap are expected to grow much slower than the market or even experience declining earnings. In this case, however, we expect our median financial stock to have annual EPS growth of 8%, which exceeds the consensus expectation for the S&P 500. To us, faster growth, higher yield and cheaper price translate to win, win and win. We believe that the market will eventually reflect our view by narrowing the gap between the S&P 500's and the financials sector's P/E ratios.
Our portfolio is filled with stocks whose stories sound similar and our research leads us to believe are selling at bargain pricesrelative to both other stocks and to the absolute returns we expect in assets other than equities.
One year ago in this commentary, after the market fell 14% in the fourth quarter, I wrote:
"The stock market looks more attractive to us than it usually does, and the divergence among individual stocks allowed us to structure a portfolio that we believe is more undervalued relative to the market than it usually is. Though the decline has made watching the market painful, we are all gritting our teeth and adding to our personal holdings."
With hindsight, we were right about the market being unusually attractive, but we have yet to prove that our portfolio was more attractive than the market.
It is frustrating when market performance doesn't reflect our estimates of business value, but that's what creates opportunity. Since our longest tenured mutual fund, the Oakmark Fund, started in 1991, its annualized return has been 12.5% versus 10.0% for the S&P 500. Yet during those 28 years, our trailing three-year return has lagged behind the market 49% of the time. That number falls to 35% for 5-year and just 22% for 10-year time periods.
We understand that patience is in short supply when a fund underperforms. In addition to our strong long-term record, consider a few other issues when evaluating our recent returns. First, most value funds have underperformed over the past three years at least in part because investors have shown little concern for valuation as some high growth stocks have surged. Second, the relative values that are available today in sectors like financials (our largest exposure) seem historically unusual. And, finally, our investment philosophy and team have been remarkably consistent throughout our history. In our view, this consistency is a major factor behind our long-term outperformance. We believe our long-term returns have been higher because we have applied our value approach consistently as opposed to following current market trends. Based on what we've seen in the past, we believe today's market offers the opportunity to profit from a potential narrowing of the gap between business value and stock price. That's exactly what we've been exploiting for the past 28 years.

Oakmark Fund December 31, 2019
Portfolio Manager Commentary

Kevin Grant, CFA
Portfolio Manager
oakmx@oakmark.com
The Oakmark Fund generated an 11% return during the fourth quarter, outperforming the S&P 500 Index's1 return of 9% over the same time period. We were encouraged that investors rewarded several of our key holdings within the financials sector, our largest and top contributing sector during the fourth quarter. As discussed in this quarter's market commentary, we continue to believe that our holdings within the financials sector offer an attractive risk/reward proposition, given their safer balance sheets and stronger competitive positions relative to recent history. We believe the prices of our financial holdings do not accurately reflect this dynamic. For the calendar year 2019, the Oakmark Fund returned 27% versus the 31% return for the S&P 500. Despite our strong absolute performance for the year, our long-term followers will know that we take little solace in this result, given our expectation to generate market-beating returns.
During the fourth quarter, we eliminated positions in Chesapeake Energy and Halliburton. These sales do not reflect a change in our view of the energy sector's overall attractiveness. Instead, they were executed to recognize a tax loss and deploy the proceeds from the sales into more attractive holdings in the industry that offers stronger cash flow profiles, better balance sheets and more compelling risk-adjusted expected returns. The energy sector has significantly underperformed the price of oil over the past several years. Since early 2016, the price of oil has risen over 100%, while the returns from the S&P Oil & Gas Exploration and Production ETF (ticker: XOP) have dropped. Yet demand for oil has continued to grow and we expect a more balanced global supply outlook. Therefore, we believe that attractive opportunities remain in this out-of-favor industry.
We did not add any names to the portfolio during the fourth quarter, but we did take advantage of the relative price differential within Alphabet's dual share class structure by swapping a portion of our non-voting Class C shares for voting Class A shares, which were offered at a slight discount to the non-voting shares. We believe that the voting rights afforded to the Class A shares should trade at a modest premium to the non-voting C sharesnot a discount. We were happy to express this view by performing a like-kind exchange that didn't trigger a taxable event.
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals and State Street were the best individual contributors for the quarter and the lowest contributors were Ally Financial and American International Group. No single position cost the Fund more than 28 basis points during the period. Our strongest contributing sectors were financials and health care and our lowest contributing sectors were energy and consumer staples, the latter of which is among our smallest sector allocations. For the calendar year, our best individual contributors were Citigroup and Apple, while our biggest detractors were Qurate Retail Class A and DXC Technology.
We thank our fellow shareholders for your investment and continued support of the Oakmark Fund.

What a difference a year can make! The Oakmark Select Fund returned 11.5% in the fourth quarter compared to the S&P 500's1 9.1% return. Unlike one year ago when fear ruled the day, the fourth quarter of 2019 was a welcome return to a market where business fundamentals mattered. For calendar year 2019, the Oakmark Select Fund increased 27.7% versus 31.5% for the S&P 500. While we still have to make up some ground due to a few years of below-market returns, we are encouraged by these much stronger results.
The largest contributors to performance during the quarter were Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, CBRE Group and Citigroup. After lagging the market considerably despite strong underlying fundamentals, Regeneron (REGN) management announced a large share repurchase authorization to take advantage of a growing gap between the market price and underlying value of REGN. We applaud management's opportunism and, somewhat oddly, the same market that undervalued REGN seems to agree. The largest detractors were Ally Financial, American International Group and Qurate Retail. There was no identifiable news to explain the relative contribution or detraction from the other aforementioned holdings.
A year ago, we took advantage of the spike in market volatility and added four new names to the portfolio. The market environment of 2019 was quite different as was our activity. We didn't add or remove any companies from the portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2019. We did, however, swap more than 70% of our non-voting Alphabet Class C shares for voting Class A shares as they were offered at a small discount to non-voting shares. We believe there should be a modest premium for the higher voting rights of the Class A shares and the swaps were done via like-kind exchange so there wasn't a corresponding capital gain.
Speaking of taxes, despite a portfolio return of nearly 30% this year, we were able to offset all capital gains in 2019 with losses such that there was no capital gains distribution in 2019.
Thank you, our fellow shareholders, for you continued investment in the Oakmark Select Fund.

Market Inequality
In this politically fraught time, it seems that advocates call out inequality in almost every social and economic endeavor, and now it is the stock market's turn. Many commentators have noted the increasing gap in profit margins favoring the largest U.S. companies over all the rest, a reversal of the outcome in the first decade of this century. Superior profitability has led to superior equity performance for many of the largest companies. The Equity and Income Fund has implicitly recognized this development: we now maintain a higher proportion of large capitalization stocks in the equity allocation of the portfolio than we did in the Fund's early years.
But Hendrik Bessembinder of the Carey School of Business at Arizona State University16 recently discovered an even greater inequality. According to Bessembinder, since 1990, 56% of U.S. stocks have failed to beat the return on cash (as represented by the return on one-month Treasury bills). He also found that the top 1.3% of companies account for almost all of the net increase in global stock market wealth creation over the 30 years he included in his study. Overall, Bessembinder's work shows that the stock market earns returns well in excess of Treasury bills, but it accomplishes this through very large returns to few stocks rather than excess returns to average stocks.
We do not have the ability to study all of Bessembinder's data, but we do consider its implications for our equity portfolio. To review quickly, we are value investors. We attempt to identify companies selling at a discount to our estimate of their intrinsic value per share, that persistently grow their intrinsic value per share, and that have managers who act and think like owners of the business.
Bessembinder's work suggests that our focus on determining whether a company is growing its intrinsic value per share is vital. We well know the danger of "value traps," i.e., businesses that are priced cheaply because their business value is deteriorating over time. Long before Harris Associates introduced the Oakmark family of mutual funds, the firm developed its three-part definition of value, in part to mitigate the risk of potential value traps. Our value discipline might seem at odds with an investing environment where the winners are generating a disproportionate share of return, but this is not necessarily the case. For example, Fund holding Mastercard has increased in price roughly 13 times from our initial purchase. We have been able to maintain a position in the company because our understanding of the growth in its intrinsic value has grown commensurate with its price. Two other long-held names that demonstrate this attribute are Nestlé and UnitedHealth Group. It is our job to seek the issues that can produce this sort of outcome for the portfolio. Although the extreme outcome
inequality that Bessembinder describes makes this search more difficult, it is our challenge.
Year/Quarter Review
2019 proved to be a strong year for U.S. stocks and bonds. Of course, this followed a roughly 20% drop in stock indexes during the fourth quarter of 2018. In 2018, the Federal Reserve increased interest rates four times. Old-timers may remember investment strategist Edson Gould who coined the phrase "three steps and stumble" to describe the stock market's response to a series of Fed interest rate hikes, and 2018 demonstrated the wisdom in that rubric. In the second half of 2019, the Fed apparently took the stock market's message to heart and reversed course by cutting rates three times.
During the year, recession fears and forecasts waxed, and investors began to keep a tally of the number of times the word "recession" appeared in news articles. The Treasury yield curve inverted in the spring, meaning that long-term interest rates fell below short-term rates. This seemed to buttress the recession case because the historic record shows that inverted yield curves have preceded economic downturns. But, later in the year, the economic clouds began to dissipate, the yield curve lost its inversion and economic sentiment rebounded, especially when it appeared that U.S./China trade talks were developing favorably. The renewed confidence helped to support a particularly good fourth quarter for U.S. equities.
The Equity and Income Fund earned 6% in the quarter, which contrasts to a 5% gain for the Lipper Balanced Fund Index14, the Fund's performance benchmark. For calendar 2019 as a whole, the Fund showed a gain of 19%, which matches the return for the Lipper Index. We are pleased to report that the annualized compound rate of return since the Fund's inception in 1995 is 9.9%, while the corresponding return to the Lipper Index is 7.0%.
The largest contributors to portfolio return in the quarter were Bank of America, UnitedHealth Group, CVS Health, Citigroup and Charter Communications. Ally Financial, TD Ameritrade (sold), Foot Locker, American International Group and General Motors detracted most. For all of calendar 2019, Bank of America, Mastercard, Charter Communications, TE Connectivity and Citigroup led the contributors, while Foot Locker, TD Ameritrade, National Oilwell Varco, Diamondback Energy and Qurate Retail (sold) detracted most from return.
Transaction Activity
We made no significant changes to the total asset allocation of the Fund during the quarter. The equity percentage increased somewhat because of the strong rally in share prices. As noted above, the yield curve became "uninverted" in the quarter as short-term rates declined below intermediate and longer term rates. The Fund's fixed income duration, the measure of

sensitivity to changes in interest rates, increased modestly in the period. As always, our fixed income team continually works to identify opportunities to improve the Fund's bond allocation.
We initiated one new equity holding while eliminating one in the quarter. The elimination, TD Ameritrade, proved to be badly timed as the company announced a merger agreement not long after our sale. We sold Ameritrade as part of our tax-loss harvesting process that helps moderate the Fund's capital gains' distributions. The company's share price declined after its competitor Charles Schwab announced it was eliminating commissions on equity trades. We took the Ameritrade loss at that time to offset previously realized gains. We regret the infelicitous timing of the sale.
Our new purchase was EOG Resources, the largest independent oil production company in the U.S. onshore region. The company has built a unique decentralized and returns-focused corporate culture, which has produced returns in excess of peers through multiple commodity cycles. This relentless focus on returns has resulted in leading capabilities in land acquisition cost, well design, operating cost efficiency and technology innovation. EOG expects that over 90% of the wells it will drill over the next 10-12 years will generate economic returns at a $40 per barrel oil price. (The price per barrel for West Texas Intermediate was $61 as of January 2.) This low position on the cost curve should allow EOG to grow oil production at a sustained mid-teens rate at today's oil prices, even though its shares trade at just 6x EV/EBITDA17. This compares favorably to the S&P 5001, which historically grows earnings at a mid-single digits pace and trades in a 10-14x EV/EBITDA range. Shares of energy companies performed poorly in 2019, despite the robust stock market rally. We believe that this industry may offer unusual attraction today.
We thank our fellow shareholders for investing in the Equity and Income Fund and invite your comments and questions.

What a Difference!
Do you still remember December of 2018? Market returns were the worst for a December in more than 80 years! On Christmas Eve of 2018, the downturn in the U.S. intensified in a particularly unnerving fashion. At the intraday low on that day, the U.S. market had declined by 20%the level generally identified as a "bear market." As sometimes happens, however, that day's mini-collapse squeezed the last bit of selling pressure out of the down-cycle, setting the stage for a robust rally in 2019. Technology stocks and more defensive sectors dominated markets for much of this year, but by year's end, the rally had broadened. Even asset classes other than stocks (e.g., bonds, gold, oil) participated.
The past quarter's results were particularly strong: The Oakmark Global Fund gained 11% compared to the MSCI World Index's18 9% return and the Lipper Global Fund Index's19 gain of 9%. For all of calendar 2019, the Fund returned 30%, which contrasts to 28% for the MSCI World Index and 24% for the Lipper Global Fund Index. Since the Fund's inception in 1999, it has achieved a compound annual rate of return of 9.9% compared to 5.2% for the MSCI World Index and 5.6% for the Lipper Global Fund Index.
For the quarter, the countries that contributed the most to the Fund's return were the U.S., U.K. and Germany and the only detracting countries, minimal at that, were the Netherlands and Australia. The five largest equity contributors to return in the quarter were Tenet Healthcare (U.S.), Lloyds Banking Group (U.K.), Bank of America (U.S.), Ryanair Holdings (Ireland) and Travis Perkins (U.K.). The Fund holdings that detracted most were Liberty Global (U.K.), Rolls-Royce Holdings (U.K.), Oracle (U.S.), Johnson Controls (U.S.) and General Motors (U.S.). During the quarter, the U.K. voted in a new Parliament, which will likely complete the arduous Brexit process. This positively affected share prices in several U.K.-domiciled industries, especially banks.
For all of 2019, the U.S., U.K. and Switzerland contributed most to investment return, while Mexico, the Netherlands and Australia, all countries where the Fund owns only one holding, detracted. Leading return contributors for the year were Mastercard (U.S.), Bank of America, Citigroup (U.S.), Lloyds Banking Group and Julius Baer Group (Switzerland). Grupo Televisa (Mexico), Prosus (Netherlands), Rolls-Royce, Incitec Pivot (Australia) and National Oilwell Varco (U.S.) detracted most from return.
We are obviously pleased with the Fund's 2019 absolute return, which is tied for the fourth-best year in the Fund's history.
When 2019 began, we very much liked our holdings, but we did not forecast the substantial multiple expansion that would generate our excellent return. Some readers may be surprised that a nearly 30% return would only be the fourth-best year in the Fund's 20-year history, but this simply illustrates that stocks are volatile. Many investors abhor volatility, but we believe that managing it is part of our job. Volatility goes in both directions, and given the unpredictability of the markets, we believe it is best to stay invested to the limits of your risk tolerance.
Portfolio Activity
Five years ago in this report, we wrote: "At the end of the year we often read quotes such as this from the December 31 New York Times: 'Trading was slow [on December 30] as most investors have closed their books for 2014.' For us as mutual fund managers such a statement is totally perplexing if not absurd. Every hour that equity markets are open for trading we look to improve the Fund whether by tactical adjustments to Fund holdings or through taking advantage of new opportunities that the markets provide. This does not, however, mean that our process typically involves heavy trading, as the Fund's turnover ratio for the past twelve months attests."
We include this paragraph here because it applies to 2019, too. Once again, the portfolio turnover rate was quite low (19%), which clearly did not impair the Fund's ability to generate a strong positive return. But this low turnover rate is deceiving. It obscures our frequent tactical trades that seek to take advantage of intraday price moves along with our trades that are intended to improve the Fund's tax efficiency. Given that we seek to hold a security for about three to five years, our shareholders should expect annualized turnover ratios between 20 and 33%. But understand that our entire investment team is continuously striving to identify superior opportunities with which to populate the portfolio.
We kept the Fund's balance between international and U.S. stocks relatively constant during the quarter. We initiated one new holding while also eliminating one, and both were U.K. companies. We completed the sale of our long-held (17 years) holding in Diageo due to its increasingly expensive valuation. We are always sad to exit a holding that has successfully compounded value for the Fund's shareholders. Nevertheless, our discipline demands that when the share price nears our calculation of the holding's intrinsic value, we prepare to move on, especially when we have replacement candidates selling at large discounts. We thank the management of Diageo for their successful stewardship of our shareholders' capital.

Portfolio Manager Commentary (continued)
Rolls-Royce was the one new purchase in the period. The company is a leading producer of engines for the aerospace sector, and it is particularly exposed to wide-body aircraft, where it operates in a duopoly with General Electric. The wide-body market is coming up on a strong replacement cycle. In fact, we estimate that 50% of Rolls' incremental wide-body engine deliveries will come from replacement demand. In civil aviation, the net present value of a new aircraft engine platform involves years of accumulating losses during the development and early production phases, which is followed by a lucrative aftermarket stream (what is referred to as the "razor and razorblade model"). Rolls' current levels of profitability and cash flow are depressed because it is participating in two simultaneous, major development/ramp-up projects while it also addresses its internal inefficiencies. We expect the company's profitability and free-cash-flow generation to improve over the next three years as development costs normalize and the lucrative aftermarket stream begins to contribute. Moreover, we believe there is significant scope for self-help initiatives as CEO Warren East overhauls a weak management team, improves accountability and modifies incentives to emphasize cash-flow generation. We believe the market is overly concerned with short-term profitability and cash flow, particularly given the numerous opportunities to improve both metrics over the medium term. We see a very favorable risk/reward profile, so we established a position during the quarter.
Currency Hedges
We defensively hedge a portion of the Fund's exposure to currencies that we believe to be overvalued versus the U.S. dollar. As of quarter end, we found the Swiss franc to be overvalued and have hedged approximately 10% of the Fund's franc exposure.

Lastly, the Fund has returned an average of 7.9% per year since its inception in October 2006, outperforming the MSCI World Index's annualized gain of 6.3% over the same period.
Lloyds Banking Group, a dominant retail bank in the U.K., was the largest contributor to the Fund's quarterly return. In October, the company's share price soared on hopes that a new U.K. Prime Minister could help negotiate a Brexit deal between the U.K. and the European Union (EU). The uncertainty of Brexit has pressured the U.K. economy and Lloyds' stock price for the past few years, despite relatively strong fundamental operating performance from the bank. Additionally, the company's third-quarter results highlighted additional efficiency opportunities and management's focus on creating value for shareholders. Moreover, we expect profitability to improve significantly in FY '20 as the company faces a material drop in non-operating expenses. Despite the share price rebound, we believe Lloyds' shares still provide attractive value for our shareholders.
American International Group (AIG), one of the world's largest insurance firms that is based in the U.S., was the only detractor to the Fund for the quarter. AIG issued third-quarter results that were slightly weaker than we had estimated. This was mostly due to higher than expected catastrophe losses and an actuarial adjustment in the company's life insurance business that depressed quarterly earnings per share. However, AIG's adjusted return on equity (ROE) reached 4.1% during the third quarter (compared with 2.4% in the year-ago period) and CEO Brian Duperreault remains confident that the company can achieve at least 10% core ROE by the end of 2021. Our investment thesis remains intact, and we believe AIG should reward shareholders over the long term.
During the quarter, we did not add or remove any companies from the portfolio. We did, however, swap approximately two-thirds of our non-voting Alphabet Class C shares for voting Class A shares as they were offered at a small discount to non-voting shares. We believe there should be a modest premium for the higher voting rights of the Class A shares and the swaps were done via like-kind exchange so there wasn't a corresponding capital gain.
Geographically, 52% of the Fund's holdings were allocated to equities in Europe and the U.K., while approximately 44% were invested in U.S. companies and 4% in Asian equities.
We continue to believe the Swiss franc is overvalued versus the U.S. dollar. As a result, we defensively hedged a portion of the Fund's exposure. Approximately 10% of the Swiss franc exposure was hedged at quarter end.
We thank you for your continued support.

Oakmark International and Oakmark December 31, 2019
International Small Cap Funds
Portfolio Manager Commentary
David G. Herro, CFA
Portfolio Manager
oakix@oakmark.com
oakex@oakmark.com
Fellow Shareholders,
The year 2019 experienced some of the same volatility that began in early 2018, but with a significant difference in annual performances. In 2019, both the Oakmark International and International Small Cap Funds delivered strong absolute performance numbers and outperformed their respective benchmarks, with the Oakmark International Small Cap Fund delivering even stronger results. The Oakmark Global and Global Select Funds also had strong absolute and relative performances. (See the individual Fund letters for more detail.)
Headline News Continues to Dictate Stock Prices
During 2019, extreme price movements were again the flavor of the day as stock prices around the globe were continually impacted by the latest news on trade, Brexit, European Union (EU) political instability and even a political conflict between South Korea and Japan dating back to World War II! For example, the markets performed strongly during the first four months, excluding March, then a few tweets fueled fear of trade wars, which contributed to a drop of over 10% in the International Fund and 8% in the International Small Cap Fund during May. August also saw measurable declines until markets began to recover and rebound, partially based on better geopolitical headlines.
One huge fear that weighed on the markets was the possibility of a Jeremy Corbyn victory in the U.K. general election along with continued Brexit uncertainty. With a historical, large victory by the Conservative Party, the fear of a Corbyn socialist government has been smashed for the medium term. The Johnson government moved quickly to move its Brexit bill through Parliament and hopefully will take the right steps to ensure a smooth exit from the EU. Meanwhile, China and the U.S. have de-escalated their trade dispute with an agreement of a "Phase One" trade deal. These events have helped global equity market sentiment going into 2020.
It's All About VALUE
Despite the recovery in 2019, I still believe our portfolios offer good value for three reasons. First, the European financials sector has performed well in 2019 but is still well below where it was in early 2018. Many of the headwinds faced by this sector in the last few years should begin to subside or even reverse as the European Central Bank has shifted to tiered deposit rates. In addition, all of our holdings are currently at or above their mandated capital levels, which allows for more capital returns to shareholders. Meanwhile, this sector still offers high dividend yields, which are especially attractive at this time since many long-term government yields are still negative.
Second, the consumer discretionary and industrials sectorsauto, industrial and agriculture equipment, etc.also recovered from 2018's downturn, but were not as strong as the financials sector. Specifically, we believe the auto-related names still offer value as end markets appear to have bottomed, spending on research and development has generally peaked, and almost all of the companies we are invested in have undertaken serious cost-cutting plans. With any help from rising demand, the benefits of these actions should be reflected in improved bottom-line results.
Third, besides being able to buy companies at attractive valuations in Europe and the U.K., these countries' home currencies are undervalued based on purchasing power parity. The strong dollar has been a big drag on foreign equity returns where, in five years, the dollar has gone from being undervalued to being overvalued compared to most major currencies. This has negatively impacted returns of overseas investing and, at some point, may also provide a tailwind to international investing. We believe that the combination of these three ingredients creates value for our shareholders.
We wish you a prosperous 2020 and are thankful for your continued support!

The Oakmark International Fund had a strong year of absolute and relative performance, returning 24.2% for the calendar year. The benchmark MSCI World ex U.S. Index20 returned 22.5% for the same one-year period. The Fund also outperformed for the recent quarter end, returning 11.1% compared to the Index return of 7.9%. Lastly, the Fund has returned an average of 9.4% per year since its inception in September 1992, outperforming the MSCI World ex U.S. Index, which has averaged 6.1% per year over the same period.
Ryanair Holdings, the leading ultra-low-cost carrier in Europe that is headquartered in Ireland, was the largest contributor for the quarter. The company's fiscal year 2020 second-quarter results exceeded consensus estimates. Ryanair's 11% revenue growth was in line with our expectations and its revenue per available seat mile beat our expectations and also appears well positioned to achieve management's 2-3% growth target for fiscal year 2020. Management expects traffic to grow by 8% to 153 million for the fiscal year, which is slightly ahead of our estimates. We are also glad to see signs of a more rational competitive environment as Ryanair's peers reduce capacity, which should help pricing going forward, and labor relations continue to improve. In addition, despite the reduction in Boeing MAX 737 deliveries, management did not reduce its passenger growth guidance for fiscal year 2021. We believe the lower supply growth should be a tailwind to pricing.
Publicis, a leading global advertising and media services company based in France, was the largest detractor for the quarter. Investors reacted negatively to the company's third-quarter revenue shortfall and management's lower guidance. We believe that the revenue shortfall is partly due to company-specific issues, like a bad quarter for its media division and the Sapient transition led by new management in the U.S. along with broader industry issues. For example, agencies have been reducing their brand spending as more work is being done in-house and internet giant platforms are becoming more dominant. These changes have eroded traditional brands while also providing advertisers with personalization at scale. We believe Publicis's recent acquisition of Epsilon should significantly boost its ability to deliver personalization at scale. And while the company's 2019 organic growth in North America appears poor, it's worth noting that it does not yet include Epsilon's contributions. Despite the company's weak results, Publicis retained its OPM (operating profit margin) target of 17.3% in 2019. The company's margins have expanded as a result of its fast-growing solutions, leaner organization, real estate consolidations and strong performance for Epsilon OPM. Publicis also retains a strong balance sheet and robust cash conversion. We believe it can provide attractive returns for our shareholders over the long term.
During the quarter, we completed the sale of our long-held holdings of Diageo (U.K.) and Akzo Nobel (Netherlands) due to their increasingly expensive valuations. We are always sad to exit holdings that have been successfully compounding value for the Fund's shareholders. Nevertheless, our discipline demands that when the share price nears our calculation of the holdings' intrinsic value, we prepare to move on, especially when we have replacement candidates selling at what we believe are large discounts to intrinsic value. We thank the management of Diageo and Akzo Nobel for their successful stewardship of our shareholders' capital. We initiated a position in Bunzl (U.K.), the largest distributor of not-for-sale items to food service, grocery and cleaning service providers. Not-for-sale items facilitate companies' daily operations but are not sold to end customers, including items like plastic cups, trays, cleaning supplies and paper bags, among others. We also repurchased Trip.com (China), the largest online travel agency in China. We like that Trip.com is more than five times the size of its nearest competitor in an industry where larger companies can negotiate better commissions and lower inventory pricing.
We continue to believe the Swiss franc is overvalued versus the U.S. dollar. As a result, we defensively hedged a portion of the Fund's exposure. Approximately 10% of the Swiss franc exposure was hedged at quarter end.
Geographically, we ended the quarter with approximately 82% of our holdings in Europe and the U.K., 10.5% in Asia and 2% in Australasia. The remaining positions are 2% in South Africa, 2.5% in North America and 1% in Latin America (Mexico).
We thank you for your continued support.

The Oakmark International Small Cap Fund had a strong year of absolute and relative performance, returning 31.9% for the calendar year. The benchmark, MSCI World ex U.S. Small Cap Index23, returned 25.4% for the same one-year period. The Fund also outperformed for the recent quarter end, returning 12.5% compared to the Index return of 11.4%. Since the Fund's inception in November 1995, it has returned an average of 9.1% per year.
What a difference a quarter can make! In our last shareholder letter, we wrote about Duerr, a German-based global mechanical and plant engineering firm, which was the biggest detractor from the Fund's performance for both the third quarter and previous 12 months. This quarter, the company returned 32% and was the Fund's largest contributor to performance. Investors reacted favorably to Duerr's third-quarter earnings announcement, which indicated stabilization and improvement across several business lines. One of those lines, HOMAG, a producer of woodworking machines, enjoyed significantly increased orders during the quarter. Importantly, these included a large systems order from China, which has been one of HOMAG's most troublesome markets. Duerr also announced a new restructuring plan for HOMAG, which should yield significant cost savings. HOMAG's success is not isolated. Across Duerr's other business lines, orders have increased and operational performance has improved. Its paint and final assembly division also performed particularly well. Orders improved by 30%, year-over-year, in the third quarter and its operating profit improved by over 9%. Even with Duerr's strong returns this quarter, we believe it remains an attractive investment due to its strong market position and effective management team.
The Fund's largest detractor from performance for the quarter was Healius, which operates numerous medical centers, pathology laboratories and diagnostic imaging centers in Australia. At the company's annual general meeting this quarter, management announced lower than anticipated fiscal year 2020 guidance, which caused the stock price to drop. However, after we spoke with CEO Dr. Malcolm Parmenter, we concluded that Healius's guidance was overly conservative. We believe the company's pathology and imaging divisions, which account for over 75% of its earnings and cash flow generation, are performing well and gaining market share. In addition, the company has implemented several growth initiatives over the past two years, which should further boost revenues and lower costs across the company. The most negative part of Healius's 2020 guidance focused on its medical centers division, which suffered due to slowing recruitment of general practitioners to serve its clinics. We believe, however, that this division remains on the right strategic trajectory and that management's decision to appoint a new head for the division should speed up progress. As a result, our investment thesis for Healius remains
intact as we believe its management team is working diligently to enhance shareholder value.
We initiated three new holdings this quarter: two Canadian-based companies, BlackBerry and Gildan Activewear, and Nordic Entertainment, which is headquartered in Sweden. BlackBerry, best known for its smartphones, has transitioned into a communications software and services developer. Its products are used for cell phones and computers as well as by automakers and governmental agencies. BlackBerry also provides messaging, voice encryption, anti-counterfeiting and product authentication services. Gildan Activewear manufactures everyday apparel, including the brands American Apparel, Anvil and Gold Toe, among others. A spin-off from Modern Times Group, Nordic Entertainment is the largest pan-Nordic provider of premium television content, holding the leading market positions in pay television channels, over-the-top streaming, free-to-air channels and content-production studios. During the quarter, we also eliminated positions in Bharti Infratel (India), HKBN Ltd. (Hong Kong), SKY Network Television (New Zealand) and Countrywide (U.K.).
Geographically, we ended the quarter with approximately 67% of our holdings in Europe and the U.K., 11% in Asia and 8% in Australasia. The remaining positions are in the Americas with 5% in Latin America (Mexico) and 5% in North America (Canada).
We continue to believe both the Swiss franc and Norwegian krone are overvalued versus the U.S. dollar, so the Fund remains hedged against these currencies. At the end of December, we were hedging 10% of the Fund's franc exposure and 16% of its krone exposure.
Wishing all of you a very happy and healthy 2020!

42 OAKMARK FUNDS
Disclosures and Endnotes
Reporting to Shareholders. The Funds reduce the number of duplicate prospectuses, annual and semi-annual reports your household receives by sending only one copy of each to those addresses shared by two or more accounts. Call the Funds at 1-800-OAKMARK (625-6275) to request individual copies of these documents. The Funds will begin sending individual copies 30 days after receiving your request.
Before investing in any Oakmark Fund, you should carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, management fees and other expenses. This and other important information is contained in the Funds' prospectus and a Fund's summary prospectus. Please read the prospectus and summary prospectus carefully before investing. For more information, please visit Oakmark.com or call 1-800-OAKMARK (625-6275).
The discussion of the Funds' investments and investment strategy (including current investment themes, the portfolio managers' research and investment process, and portfolio characteristics) represents the Funds' investments and the views of the portfolio managers and Harris Associates L.P., the Funds' investment adviser, at the time of this report, and are subject to change without notice.
All Oakmark Funds: Investing in value stocks presents the risk that value stocks may fall out of favor with investors and underperform growth stocks during given periods.
Oakmark, Oakmark Equity and Income, Oakmark Global, Oakmark International, and Oakmark International Small Cap Funds: The Funds' portfolios tend to be invested in a relatively small number of stocks. As a result, the appreciation or depreciation of any one security held will have a greater impact on the Funds' net asset value than it would if the Funds invest in a larger number of securities. Although that strategy has the potential to generate attractive returns over time, it also increases the Funds' volatility.
Oakmark Select and Oakmark Equity and Income Funds: The stocks of medium-sized companies tend to be more volatile than those of large companies and have underperformed the stocks of small and large companies during some periods.
Because the Oakmark Select and Oakmark Global Select Funds are non-diversified, the performance of each holding will have a greater impact on the Funds' total return and may make the Funds' returns more volatile than a more diversified fund.
Oakmark Global, Oakmark Global Select, Oakmark International and Oakmark International Small Cap Funds: Investing in foreign securities presents risks which in some ways may be greater than U.S. investments. Those risks include: currency fluctuation; different regulation, accounting standards, trading practices and levels of available information; generally higher transaction costs; and political risks.
The percentages of hedge exposure for each foreign currency are calculated by dividing the market value of all same-currency forward contracts by the market value of the underlying equity exposure to that currency.
The Oakmark Equity and Income Fund invests in medium- and lower quality debt securities that have higher yield potential but present greater investment and credit risk than higher quality securities. These risks may result in greater share price volatility.
Oakmark International Small Cap Fund: The stocks of smaller companies often involve more risk than the stocks of larger companies. Stocks of small companies tend to be more volatile and have a smaller public market than stocks of larger companies. Small companies may have a shorter history of operations than
larger companies, may not have as great an ability to raise additional capital and may have a less diversified product line, making them more susceptible to market pressure.
