PATIENCE Security prices can fluctuate more widely than underlying security values. In our opinion, market efficiencies should recognize and correct these security prices over time. BOTTOM-UP We identify value through rigorous fundamental analysis of a company s business to determine what we consider its economic worth based on projected future earnings, cash flow or asset value potential. 5
The Templeton Advantage A CLEAR PHILOSOPHY, CONSISTENTLY APPLIED Templeton s proven ability to consistently apply our philosophy for more than 60 years.

For the benchmark, no limits are applied to these ratios in keeping with the benchmark s calculation methodology. Market capitalization statistics are indicated in the base currency for the portfolio presented. Due to data limitations all equity holdings are assumed to be the primary equity issue (usually the ordinary or common shares) of each security s issuing company. This methodology may cause small differences between the portfolio s reported characteristics and the portfolio s actual characteristics. In practice, Franklin Templeton s portfolio managers invest in the class or type of security which they believe is most appropriate at the time of purchase. The market capitalization figures for both the portfolio and the benchmark are the security level, not aggregated up to the main issuer.
