Nintendo (Buy): Pokemon, and maybe Fortnite, can add to Switch momentum We expect more details of games from Nintendo at E3 but this week Nintendo has showcased significant software plans for the key franchise IP of Pokemon on Switch.

EFTA01036504 Nintendo's first party switch software continues to impress. Nintendo has four first party Switch games with a Metascore above 90 (out of 100). Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild both have a Metascore of 97, with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Bayonetta 2 both scoring 92. As we have often said, through our thematic work on the industry, it is compelling content and engagement which drives the eGaming cycle and in the performance of these titles Nintendo has delivered. On Friday, media outlets reported that the extremely popular Fortnite Game was likely coming to Switch. It was spotted that the game was on a ratings application from publisher Epic Games for the Nintendo Switch platform at the Korean Game Rating and Administration Committee, one of the final steps before launch. The very design of the game is for tt to be device agnostic and we know that an Android version is in the works to complement the PC, JOS, )(box and PlayStatlon formats. With the unique controller gaming experience of the Switch and the portability option this could end up being a goldmine and accelerate adoption, if it were to happen.

The micro has been significantly quieter, not helped by a shortened week in both the U.K. and U.S. Ahead of the E3 conference for the video game industry neat week many stocks in the sector acted well at the end of May and we reflect on the performance of our eGaming basket. We also update performance of our Global TMT First XI and Worst XI lists. We take a look, through the work and help of our strategy team, at the valuation of European equities relative to the U.S. and are reminder of the great earnings momentum for Logitech and the awful trends at Swisscom. We continue to count the ways that China is moving up the IP curve and highlight how the risk of Apple internalising components has come earlier than expected for Dialog. At the stock level we have updates on Ubisoft, DISH, Facebook, Nintendo, Zynga and salesforce.com. eGaming: outperformance ahead of E3 With E3 just a week away we will be sending out an updated eGaming primer and E3 preview note in the next couple of days. The eGaming basket continues to generate alpha and had a good end to May. Year to date the eGaming basket has returned +18% through the end of May. This compares to a return of the MSCI World Index of 1% and the Video Game Tech ETF return of 10%. If, hypothetically, the eGaming basket had been running for a last year the 12 month returns of the basket would have been 6O%. This is double the return of the Video Game Tech ETF +30% and 6x the performance of the MSCI World Index. Icicurnages=jpg@OID3F9EC 54242790 EFTA01036505 End of month.

US Internet consumers begin their search for products on Amazon more than on search engines. Incredible. Ichtimagecea l Stand outs from the Kleiner Perkins trend report The annual release of Kleiner Perkins Internet and digital trends report, all 294 slides of it, has some fascinating insights. A couple of things really stand out —such as how quickly China has risen to become a formidable global force, Amazon's scale is frightening (for many others), and digital/mobile based transactions are accelerating. Examples Include how 60% of payments are done digitally, six hours a day are spent on a mobile (but mobile device volume growth is now basically zero), eCommerce hit 2O% of China retail (and fastest growing in the world), US it is at 13%. Amazon R&D & Capex •45%YoY (Apple Just 5%) and more than any other company and eCommerce sales growth and share is accelerating. A Few highlights: • Internet adoption: As of 2018, half the world population, or about 3.6 billion people, will be on the Internet. That's thanks in large part to cheaper Android phones and WI-Fi becoming more available, though individual services will have a tougher time adding new users as the web hits saturation. • Mobile usage: While smartphone shipments are flat and Internet user growth is slowing, U.S. adults are spending more time online thanks to mobile, clocking 5.9 hours per day In 2017 versus 5.6 hours in 2016. • Mobile ads: People are shifting their time to mobile faster than ad dollars are following, creating a $7 billion mobile ad opportunity, though platforms are increasingly responsible for providing safe content to host those ads. • Crypto: Interest in cryptocurrency is exploding as Coinbase's user count has nearly quadrupled since January 2017 • Voice: Voice technology is at an inflection point due to speech recognition hitting 95% accuracy and the sales explosion for Amazon Echo which went from over 10 million to over 30 million sold in total by the end of 2017. • Subscription services: They're seeing massive adoption, with Netfllx up 25%, The New York Times up 43%, and Spotify up 48% year-over-year in 2017. A free tier accelerates conversion rates. • Ecommerce vs Brick & Mortar: Ecommerce growth quickens as now 13% of all retail purchases happen online and parcel shipments are rising swiftly, signalling big opportunities for new shopping apps. • Amazon: More people start product searches on Amazon than search engines now, but Jeff Bezos still relies on other surfaces like Facebook and YouTube to inspire people to want things. • Education: Employees seek retraining and education from YouTube and online courses to keep up with new Job requirements and pay off skyrocketing student loan debt. • Freelancing: Employees crave scheduling and work-from-home flexibility, and Internet discovery of freelance work led it to grow 3% faster than total workforce growth. The on- demand workforce grew 23% in 2017 driven by Uber, Airbnb, Etsy, Upwork, and Doordash. • Transportation: People are buying fewer cars, keeping them longer, and shifting transportation spend to rideshare, which saw rides double in 2017. • Enterprise: Consumerization of the enterprise through better interfaces is spurring growth for companies like Dropbox and Slack. • China: Alibaba is expanding beyond China with strong gross merchandise volume, though Amazon still rules in revenue. • Privacy: China has a big opportunity as users there are much more willing to trade their personal data for product benefits than U.S. users, and China is claiming more spots on the top 20 Internet company list while making big Investments In Al. • Tech Investment: Were at an all-time high for publk and private investment In technology, while the top six public R&D • with any concerns or issues you may have.
