Overview
Investment Strategy
The goal of Selected American Shares is to provide investors access to attractive investment opportunities among large cap, durable, well-managed businesses, primarily in the U.S.
Using our signature Davis Investment Discipline, we seek to purchase these businesses at value prices and hold them for the long term. This approach makes Selected American Shares an ideal foundation for an investor's portfolio.
"By being highly selective and rejecting the vast majority of companies in the index, we’ve uncovered businesses with highly attractive earnings growth, yet selling at some of the lowest valuations we have ever seen. We believe this sets the stage for attractive returns in the years ahead.”

The result: Our portfolios look very different from the index."

Distributions
2025 Semi-Annual Distributions as of 06/25/25
This information on 2025 distributions is intended for existing shareholders.
As large shareholders ourselves, we are conscious of tax costs and make every effort to be tax efficient.
Capital gains result from the appreciation of companies in the portfolio. The fund's long-term investment approach means that this appreciation may have occurred over an extended period of time. All of the gains are long term and generally subject to lower tax rates than short-term gains or dividend income. Thus, for longtime shareholders in search of yield, capital gains distributions tend to be more tax efficient than interest or dividend income.
| Share Class | Record Date | Ex-Date | Payable Date | Ordinary Income | Short-term Capital Gain | Long-term Capital Gain | Reinvestment Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Class S | 6/24/25 | 6/25/25 | 6/26/25 | .163 | - | 3.50 | 37.30 |
| Class D | 6/24/25 | 6/25/25 | 6/26/25 | .2251 | - | 3.50 | 37.44 |
This information on 2025 distributions is intended for existing shareholders. Shareholders should not use this information for tax reporting purposes. Form 1099 will be sent in early 2026 for all tax reporting.
Carefully consider the fund's investment objectives, strategies, risks, charges and expenses before investing or sending money. The prospectus contains this and other information and can be obtained by clicking here.

The table above includes the percentage of 2024 dividend and net short-term capital gain distributions, by fund, that are eligible for reduced tax rates as "qualified dividend income" (QDI). QDI-eligible amounts, including any net short-term capital gains, are reported to shareholders in Box 1b of Form 1099-DIV. For those shareholders who do not receive a Form 1099-DIV, QDI-eligible amounts can be determined by applying the relevant percentages from the table to the dividend and net short-term capital gain distributions shown on the shareholder's 2024 year-end account statement. Individual questions should be referred to your tax advisor.
Carefully consider the fund's investment objectives, strategies, risks, charges and expenses before investing or sending money. The prospectus contains this and other information and can be obtained by clicking here.
