■ Absolute value – Seek genuine bargains among smaller companies and hold cash when opportunities are scarce

■ Benchmark indifferent – True active management, do not follow a benchmark to construct the portfolio

■ Bottom-up – Select and value companies based on fundamentals. Buy market leading companies with a history of

profitability and strong balance sheets

■ Downside focused – Seek to avoid low quality and high leverage. Buy only when we see a compelling risk/reward

■ Research-based – We perform deep due diligence and we do that not only prior to purchase but throughout the life of

the investment

■ Concentrated – Always focus on best ideas but be nimble around sizing

■ Shareholder aligned approach – Portfolio managers invest alongside clients in their strategies

Outlook

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Please refer to the end of the presentation for important disclosures.

We are optimistic about the future because:

■ Our process remains the same as we deployed over the past three decades

■ Our portfolio is cheap

‒ The portfolio is trading at multiples that are substantially lower than those of Russell 2500

‒ The average portfolio company of the Fund is 32.7% off its 5-year high vs. Russell 2500 at all-time high

■ Strong operational performance

‒ Many of the portfolio companies are operating per our expectations and are positioned well

‒ We view the balance sheets of our portfolio companies as strong

■ Our pipeline is strong

‒ We are prepared to deploy more of the Fund’s liquidity into good businesses selling at cheap valuations

Cimarex Energy Co. (XEC)

This case study is being shown only as an illustration of FPA’s investment process and is not a recommendation for any particular type of transaction or sector. It should not be

assumed that any transaction in the future will be profitable.

FPA Analysis of Cimarex Energy Co. (XEC)

■ E&P based in Denver w/ operations in W. Texas and

Oklahoma

■ Top-tier management team, from capital allocation to

geoscience

■ Lots of core inventory capable of solid returns in a low

oil price environment

■ Focused on ROIC, not blind production growth

■ Well development requires 10%+ fully burdened ROIC

at $40 WTI

■ Compensation is driven by generating full cycle returns

■ Low leverage at just 0.7x net debt to annualized

EBITDA

■ Short term issues:

‒ Lower commodity prices, energy sector sell off

‒ Light commodity hedging

‒ Overblown concerns surrounding gas takeaway

capacity

assumed that any transaction in the future will be profitable.

FPA Analysis of SM Energy Co. (SM)

■ E&P based in Denver w/ principal operations in TX and

ND

■ Major transition to become a core Permian Basin

producer

■ Significant potential for high margin inventory gains

■ Investors are over-discounting newly acquired acreage

■ Short term issues:

‒ Lower commodity prices, energy sector sell off

‒ Net leverage at 3x is on the high side; less of a

concern due to maturity ladder, projected cash flow

growth, and hedging coverage

‒ Limited well production history on new acreage;

momentum is positive Source: SM Investor Presentation, Jun-2017

redemptions. Please refer to the end of presentation for important disclosures.

FPA Analysis of Western Digital (WDC)

■ Largest data storage component company in

the world

■ Agnostic to storage device type given

exposure to both HDD & SSD

■ Cost-leader in both HDDs (#1 market share)

& SSDs (#2 market share)

■ Large self-help opportunity as synergies

recognized from HGST & SanDisk

acquisitions

■ Potential acquisition of Toshiba Memory

could further consolidate the SSD market

improving competitive dynamics

■ Believe the stock price does not yet reflect

FCF potential post integrations or the change

in growth profile post the acquisition of

Important Disclosures

These slides are intended as supplemental material to the First Half 2017 FPA Capital Fund audio presentation that is posted on our website fpafunds.com.

It is important to understand that the views expressed on these slides and in the accompanying audio presentation are as of the date presented (August 3, 2017) and are subject to

change based on market and other conditions. These views may differ from other portfolio managers and analysts of the firm as a whole, and are not intended to be a forecast of

future events, a guarantee of future results or investment advice. Any mention of individual securities or sectors should not be construed as a recommendation to purchase or sell such

securities, and any information provided is not a sufficient basis upon which to make an investment decision. The information provided does not constitute, and should not be

construed as, an offer or solicitation with respect to any securities, products or services discussed. Future events or results may vary significantly from those expressed and are subject

to change at any time in response to changing circumstances and industry developments. This information and data has been prepared from sources believed reliable, but the

accuracy and completeness of the information cannot be guaranteed and is not a complete summary or statement of all available data.

Portfolio composition will change due to ongoing management of the Fund. Any mention of individual securities or sectors should not be construed as a recommendation to purchase

or sell such securities, and any information provided is not a sufficient basis upon which to make an investment decision. It should not be assumed that future investments will be

profitable or will equal the performance of the security examples discussed. The portfolio holdings as of the most recent quarter-end may be obtained at www.fpafunds.com..

You should consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before you invest. The Prospectus details the Fund's objective and

policies and other matters of interest to the prospective investor. Please read this Prospectus carefully before investing. The Prospectus may be obtained by visiting the

website at www.fpafunds.com, by calling toll-free, 1-800-982-4372, or by contacting the Fund in writing.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results and current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. This data represents past performance

and investors should understand that investment returns and principal values fluctuate, so that when you redeem your investment it may be worth more or less than its

original cost. The Fund’s expense ratio as of its most recent prospectus is 0.80%. Current month-end performance data may be obtained at www.fpafunds.com or by

calling toll-free, 1-800-982-4372.

Dennis Bryan and Arik Ahitov have been co-portfolio managers since November 2007 and February 2014, respectively, and manage the Fund in a manner that is substantially similar

to the prior portfolio manager, Robert Rodriguez. Mr. Rodriguez ceased serving as the Fund’s portfolio manager effective December 2010.

Investments in mutual funds carry risks and investors may lose principal value. Stock markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political,

regulatory, market, or economic developments. The Fund may purchase foreign securities, including American Depository Receipts (ADRs) and other depository receipts, which are

subject to interest rate, currency exchange rate, economic and political risks; this may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets. Small and mid-cap stocks involve greater

risks and they can fluctuate in price more than larger company stocks.

Value securities, including those selected by the Fund’s portfolio managers, are subject to the risks that their intrinsic value may never be realized by the market and that their prices

may go down. In addition, value style investing may fall out of favor and underperform growth or other styles of investing during given periods. Securities selected by the portfolio

managers using a value strategy may never reach their intrinsic value because the market fails to recognize what the portfolio managers consider to be the true business value or

because the portfolio managers have misjudged those values.

The information in this publication has been developed internally and/or obtained from sources we believe to be reliable; however, FPA does not guarantee the accuracy or

completeness of such information and is subject to change without notice.
