SMID performance YTDThe growth outlook for Europe continues to improve, driven by fiscal expansion, capital marketsunion, and an increased focus on competitiveness. Although European stocks have outperformed USpeers in 2025 YTD, we are still witnessing a small underperformance of European SMID comparedto liquid European large caps. SMID valuations are still sitting at the low end of the historical range,on absolute as well as relative basis to larger peers, which continues to point towards a potentiallystrong backdrop for future outperformance. In our view, investors should use continued ‘risk on’moves as an opportunity to reduce US exposure and increase allocations to Europe. Across ourcoverage, we favour European domestics, particularly in sectors that already have self-sufficientlocal supply chains, which should limit transaction headwinds.Exhibit 1 - MSCI Europe Small Cap vs. MSCI Europe performance.050100150200250300350400450500Source: FactSet, Jefferies; monthly, 06/02 = 100Exhibit 3 - MSCI Europe Small Cap vs. MSCI Europe - Annual outperformance.5%18%11%12%11%-10%-8%-15%-10%-5%0%5%10%15%20%25%30%Source: FactSet, Jefferies; 2025 YTDFive months into the year SMID is underperforming slightly compared to larger stocks, with adisparity of -1%. Performance was driven by geopolitical turmoil, including trade disputes and thevolatile negotiations on the ongoing conflict in Ukraine as well as an increasingly unified Europeanresponse to these challenges. For example, the EU commission launched the ReArm Europe plan,with over €800bn in defence spending by 2030 and the Clean Industrial Deal aiming to mobilisie over€100bn in short-term funding to support competitiveness and decarbonisation of EU industry willbe voted in EU parliament in July. With a successful soft-landing of the economy as inflation levelsare under control at around ~2% whilst PMIs are low but trending positively, the set up for EuropeanSMID remains compelling, particularly in the case of a ceasefire in Ukraine and/or if clarity on globaltariffs returns.Please see important disclosure information on pages 50 - 57 of this report.This report is intended for Jefferies clients only.
