WILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Nexus Future Tech Fund, an actively managed investment fund of Woodlake Capital, founded by John Brown, today announced its full-year 2025 results. The fund delivered a 76.59% gross return in 2025, before fees and expenses, outperforming its benchmark.

2025 highlights

• Full-year 2025 gross return: 76.59% (before fees and expenses)
• Strategy: concentrated, research-driven equity investing focused on secular growth and improving earnings power
• Differentiation: performance-based fee structure designed to align manager and investor outcomes

"Our 2025 result reflects disciplined positioning in businesses with structural demand and improving earnings power, alongside a fee model designed to align incentives with our investors," said John Brown, Founder of Nexus Future Tech Fund. "As we enter 2026, we expect a constructive but more selective environment, where execution, margin durability, and demonstrable ROI matter more than narratives. Our focus remains unchanged: concentrate in high-quality businesses with structural tailwinds and maintain valuation and risk discipline."

Market environment

Equity markets finished 2025 with strong headline performance, supported by earnings growth and concentrated leadership in a subset of companies tied to AI infrastructure and related demand. Late in the year, the Federal Reserve began easing monetary policy, contributing to improved financial conditions and a continued focus on fundamental earnings delivery.

Key contributors

NX Fund's 2025 performance was supported by exposure to second-order beneficiaries of AI deployment and the data center buildout. Among the most significant contributors were:

• Lam Research (LRCX)
• Palantir (PLTR)
• Western Digital (WDC)
