What stands out in XT's data

Global exponential technology firms, from AI to biotech and robotics.

Trades cheaper than the typical deep-tech fund — you pay less for each dollar of earnings.

Its trailing EBITDA multiple of 18.8x sits below the category median of 19.8x. Return on equity of 11.0% runs low, so the low price comes with weak profitability.

A broad bet on frontier innovation, for a portfolio that can handle the ride.
