Shareholders’ Letter (Unaudited)

April 30, 2019

Dear Shareholders,

Equities Rally as Economic Recovery Marches toward 10th Birthday

During the six-month reporting period ended April 30, 2019, the economic recovery marched toward a potential mid-year milestone—its 10th birthday. Despite encouraging economic data, market pundits predictably and frequently opined that the duration of the economic recovery could point to an economic slowdown or recession leading to a bear market. Notwithstanding this sentiment, the S&P 500 Index returned 9.76% during the reporting period while, in our view, economic data continued to suggest that a recession was unlikely in the near future. During the reporting period, our investment team navigated considerable market volatility by continuing to focus on what we have done for over 50 years—fundamental stock research. We also spent time reaffirming our broad investment themes, including innovation that is surging through all economic sectors. Our continuing research resulted in us staying the course while maintaining a positive outlook for equities.

Volatility Returns

The S&P 500 Index hit a peak on October 3, 2018 and then fell 19.25% to a December 24, 2018 low of 2351.1. It then rallied 26.13% from the December 24 low until the close of markets on April 30, 2019. Emerging markets led during the reporting period with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returning 13.89% compared to the 9.15% gain of the MSCI World Index of developed markets. From a broader perspective, international markets returned 9.39% as measured by the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index. Wise investors did not react to the sharp, yet short-term, selloff, but instead stayed focused on the long-term potential of their investments.

Staying the Course

Pessimists frequently focused on the aging of the economic recovery, but we believe that cumulative growth is a more important factor to assess. While the current recovery has been longer than typical, it has generated real cumulative growth of approximately 20% compared to growth of typically more than 35% associated with expansions occurring after 1960, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. In addition, the Conference Board Leading Economic Index, which we believe is a good indicator of future economic activity, has remained positive year over year and was up 3% as of the end of April. Since the late 1960s, recessions haven’t occurred until the index declined 3.4% on average year over year.

Market pundits also pounced upon the fourth quarter market decline as an example that the bull market was dying, but we viewed it as an opportunity to buy high-quality companies and we believed that equities could snap back. Since 1987 equity returns have averaged 19% after P/E ratios declined by double-digit amounts, according to data from FactSet Research Systems. We reasoned that with the S&P 500 Index P/E dropping 21% in the fourth quarter, the market was ready to rally. We believe the attractive P/E ratios resulting from the selloff and optimism regarding trade negotiations between the U.S. and China resulted in the strong market gains during the first four months of 2019.

Pundits also focused on declining earnings estimates later in the reporting period. By the end of the six-month reporting period ended April 30, 2019, 46% of S&P 500 companies had reported first quarter results. Based on reported results and estimates for companies that hadn’t reported, first quarter earnings were expected to decline 2.3% year over year, which would be the first year-over-year decline since the second quarter of 2016, according to FactSet Research Systems. For calendar year 2019, earnings are forecast to grow only 3% to 4% compared to 20% last year, according to FactSet Research Systems.

However, during the past 35 years, the Russell 1000 Growth Index generated a median return of 15.8% compared to 14.1% for the Russell 1000 Value Index during periods when earnings growth weakened. We believe this outperformance resulted from the less cyclical nature of growth equities and the tendency for value stocks to have more operational and financial leverage. Going forward, earnings growth is expected to strengthen and reach 8.1% in the final quarter of this year, according to FactSet Research Systems data as of the end of the six-month reporting period ended April 30, 2019.

Moderating economic growth was another concern among pundits. In March the Federal Reserve (the Fed) lowered its prior estimate for 2019 U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) growth from 2.3% to 2.1% while GDP grew 3.1% in 2018. Based on our observations of innovation that is surging through virtually all industries, we continued to believe that the economy is healthy. This belief was confirmed when first quarter 2019 GDP grew 3.2%, the strongest first quarter since 2015. In addition, with the exception of four years associated with recessions, the S&P 500 Index has generated positive gains during periods of moderating GDP growth occurring during the past 35 years.(1) We believe there is no reason to expect a recession this year and we believe that a recession is unlikely in 2020.

Going Forward

We remain optimistic due to the positive Conference Board Leading Economic Index, favorable monetary policy, potential earnings growth and most importantly, innovation that is occurring throughout the economy and supporting economic growth. Regarding monetary policy, the real fed funds rate(2) is under 1%, which we believe is encouraging. Over the past half century, every U.S. recession was preceded by a materially positive real fed funds rate of 2% or higher. For much of 2018, many market pundits thought the Fed would raise interest rates three to four times in 2019. We, on the other hand, argued and correctly predicted that this was highly unlikely and moreover that, regardless of Fed actions, interest rates would remain very low by historical standards and moderate by recent ones. We were correct. The Fed in fact has paused its rate increases since its December 2018 meeting. Oddly, the same pundits have flipped 180 degrees and suggest that the Fed might actually cut rates more than once this year. We think they are again incorrect. Our view is that we are on pause for 2019, and while there might be one more Fed rate action in the next 18 months, the direction is unclear.

We believe that when considering current interest rates and corporate earnings, equities remain very attractive. The “earnings yield” or the inverse of price-to-equity ratios for the S&P 500 Index has historically been just modestly above 10-year Treasury yields. Since the global financial crisis, however, the spread has widened and was approximately 340 basis points as of April 30, 2019, which we believe makes equities attractive relative to bonds.

We are also optimistic that earnings growth will improve when considering that certain idiosyncratic factors, such as weak semiconductor and energy sector profits, have been limiting the growth of corporate profits. As the semiconductor cycle improves and higher oil prices flow through oil and gas company financial statements, we believe overall earnings growth should improve by the end of the year. According to FactSet Research Systems consensus expectations, earnings growth could reach 8.1% for the fourth quarter of this year.

We are also optimistic because innovation is strong. The digital revolution, including the Internet of Things, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, driver assistance technology and 5G wireless communication, is helping leading corporations grow their earnings by creating new products and services that are disrupting legacy business models. In closing we intend to continue to focus on conducting in-depth fundamental research to find companies that are positioned to potentially grow their earnings by capturing market share or creating new niches with innovative products and services.

Portfolio Matters

Alger Spectra Fund

The Alger Spectra Fund generated a 12.98% return for the fiscal six-month period ended April 30, 2019, compared to the 11.81% return of the Russell 3000 Growth Index.

During the reporting period, Information Technology and Health Care were the largest sector weightings. The largest sector overweight was Health Care and the largest sector underweight was Industrials. For the reporting period, the Fund’s average portfolio allocation to long positions, which was increased by leverage, was 101.39%. The Fund had a 4.20% allocation to short positions and a 2.81% allocation to cash.

Contributors to Performance

The Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology sectors provided the greatest contributions to relative performance. Among individual positions, Amazon.com, Inc.; Microsoft Corp.; Visa, Inc., Cl. A; Facebook, Inc., Cl. A; and salesforce.com, inc. provided the greatest contributions to performance. Shares of Amazon.com performed strongly in response to the company continuing to take market share from brick and mortar retailers. Strong growth of the company’s web hosting and digital advertising services also supported the performance of Amazon.com shares.

Short position Carnival Corp. also contributed to performance. Carnival operates cruise lines. Shares of the company underperformed after the company lowered its earnings guidance due to higher fuel costs. Investors may also have been concerned about the weakness in European markets that represent more than half of the cruise line passenger bookings. As the price of Carnival stock declined, the value of the short position increased and contributed to performance.

Detractors from Performance

The Consumer Staples and Industrials sectors were among the sectors that detracted from results. Regarding individual positions, Apple, Inc.; UnitedHealth Group, Inc.; Conagra Brands, Inc.; NVIDIA Corp.; and Cigna Corp. were the top detractors from performance. Apple’s iOS operating system is the company’s unique intellectual property and competitive strength. This software drives extremely tight engagement with consumers and enterprises.

Such engagement fosters growing purchases of high margin services such as music and apps, along with increasing use of Apple Pay. The shares underperformed as investors considered a slowing consumer demand environment for smartphones, which is driven by some skepticism around the utility of phones sold at increasingly high price points.

Short position MongoDB, Inc., Cl. A also detracted from results. Mongo DB develops and operates cloud-based technology for databases. The bullish consensus expectation for Mongo is based on the belief that the company has potential to displace incumbent database solutions. Our research indicates that emerging competition from large technology companies that are introducing “good enough” distributed database offerings has potential to prevent MongoDB from achieving investors’ growth expectations. We have already observed customer defection from MongoDB. Unfortunately, competitive pressure has yet to erode investors’ confidence in MongoDB and shares of the company generated positive performance, resulting in the short position detracting from the portfolio’s results.

Alger Responsible Investing Fund

The Alger Responsible Investing Fund returned 11.68% for the fiscal six-month period ended April 30, 2019, compared to the 12.09% return of the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

Contributors to Performance

During the reporting period, the largest sector weightings were Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary. The largest sector overweight was Consumer Discretionary and the largest underweight was Communication Services. The Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary sectors provided the greatest contributions to relative performance. Among individual positions, Microsoft Corp.; Amazon.com, Inc.; Visa, Inc., Cl. A; salesforce.com, inc.; and Honeywell International, Inc. were among the top contributors to performance. Shares of Amazon.com outperformed in response to developments identified in the Alger Spectra Fund discussion.

Detractors from Performance

The Health Care and Communication Services sectors were among the sectors that detracted from results. Among individual positions, Apple, Inc.; Cigna Corp.; Humana, Inc.; Biogen, Inc.; and Encana Corp. were top detractors from results. Shares of Apple underperformed in response to developments identified in the Alger Spectra Fund discussion.

Alger Dynamic Opportunities Fund

The Alger Dynamic Opportunities Fund returned 8.98% for the fiscal six-month period ended April 30, 2019, compared to the 9.76% return of the Fund’s benchmark, the S&P 500 Index.

During the reporting period, the average allocation to long positions was 83.83% and the average allocation to short positions was 31.10%. The Fund’s cash allocation was 47.27%. Based on the combined allocations of long and short positions, Information Technology and Health Care were the largest sector weightings for the reporting period. The Industrials sector was the only sector overweighting while Financials and Consumer Discretionary were the largest sector underweightings.

Contributors to Performance

The Health Care and Industrials sectors provided the largest contributions to relative performance. Long positions in aggregate outperformed the Fund’s benchmark and contributed to both absolute and relative performance.

Among long positions, Wayfair, Inc., Cl. A; Trade Desk, Inc., Cl. A; TransDigm Group, Inc.; Chegg, Inc.; and Portola Pharmaceuticals, Inc. were the top contributors to performance. Trade Desk provides a technology platform for managing digital display, mobile and video advertising campaigns. It is a pioneer in programmatic advertising, which seeks to pitch advertisements that are targeted to viewers’ specific interests. Trade Desk’s sales growth has benefitted from accelerating favorable trends, including brands moving from analog marketing to digital and programmatic advertising comprising the quickest growing segment within digital marketing. In particular, connected TV, or TV that accesses content via the internet, has reached an inflection point and is starting to contribute meaningfully to advertising growth. We believe programmatic advertising is still in its early phase of adoption.

Short exposure to multinational specialty pharmaceutical company Bausch Health Companies, Inc. also contributed to performance. We believe the company has a weak innovation engine with few significant new drugs coming to market at a time when the drugs the company already markets have been losing market share. Those factors and concerns about debt have weighed upon the performance of Bausch Health Companies share performance. As the share price declined, the short exposure contributed to performance.

Detractors from Performance

The Information Technology and Financials sectors were among the sectors that detracted from relative performance. In addition, short exposure, in aggregate, detracted from results. Regarding individual long positions, Apple, Inc.; Tiffany & Co.; Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc.; XPO Logistics, Inc.; and Stamps.com, Inc. were the top detractors from performance. Shares of Apple underperformed in response to developments identified in the Alger Spectra Fund discussion.

Short exposure to Snap, Inc. also detracted from results. Snap provides a smartphone app called Snapchat that allows users to send and receive photos, texts and videos. Users can edit images with filters, drawings and captions. We believe the company has been facing challenges due to competition, questionable return on investment for advertisers and the fickle nature of its young audience. The stock rallied due to fourth quarter revenue and adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization exceeding expectations. The company has stabilized its number of daily active users but we believe it may face an uphill battle with respect to achieving sustained growth and profitability for the aforementioned reasons. As the share price of Snap increased, the short exposure detracted from results.

Alger Emerging Markets Fund

The Alger Emerging Markets Fund returned 14.83% for the fiscal six-month period ended April 30, 2019, compared to the 13.90% return of its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

Contributors to Performance

During the reporting period, the largest portfolio sector weightings were Financials and Consumer Discretionary. The largest sector overweight was Consumer Staples and the largest sector underweight was Communication Services. The Consumer Discretionary and Consumer Staples sectors provided the largest contributions to relative performance.

Stock selection resulted in India, China and Brazil making large contributions to relative performance. Among individual positions, Tencent Holdings, Ltd.; Alibaba Group Holding, Ltd.; Jumia Technologies AG; Globant SA; and Kweichow Moutai Co., Ltd., Cl. A were among the top contributors to performance. Alibaba is China’s largest e-commerce company with Taobao serving the consumer-to-consumer market and Tmall serving the business-to-consumer market. Alibaba’s revenues have grown substantially and the company has maintained healthy operating metrics. Positive secular trends in middle class consumption continue in China and Alibaba’s management remains positive on “new retail” opportunities.

Detractors from Performance

The Information Technology and Real Estate sectors were among the sectors that detracted from results. From a country perspective, stock selection resulted in South Korea, Thailand, South Africa and Taiwan being among countries that were the largest detractors from performance.

Regarding individual positions, NMC Health PLC; PetroChina Company Ltd; Ecopetrol SA; PagSeguro Digital Ltd.; and StoneCo Ltd. were among the top detractors from performance. NMC Health is the United Arab Emirates’s (UAE) largest private health care provider and operates hospitals across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman and Qatar. The company reported solid 2018 results with revenues for the second half of the year increasing 36% year over year. There were concerns about the vice chairman pledging 9% of the company’s shares and overall concerns about Saudi Arabia, a new market for the company that is being targeted as a potential future growth driver. Those concerns centered on “Saudization,” or the replacement of foreign workers with Saudi nationals. The change could potentially deplete NMC’s core customer base as well as increase the risk of non-payment of receivables by the Saudi government. Rising demand for private health care in the Middle East continues as residents live longer and are suffering from more lifestyle-related health complications.

I thank you for putting your trust in Alger.

Sincerely,

Daniel C. Chung, CFA

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which is not an indication or a guarantee of future results. The Fund’s average annual total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Class A returns reflect the maximum initial sales charge and Class C returns reflect the applicable contingent deferred sales charge. Class A, C, and I historical performance is calculated from December 31, 1974, the first full calendar year that Fred Alger Management, Inc. was the Fund’s investment adviser. The Fund operated as a closed-end fund from August 23, 1978 to February 12, 1996, during which time the calculation of total return assumed dividends were reinvested at market value. Had dividends not been reinvested, performance would have been lower. The chart and table above do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would have paid on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares. Investment return and principal will fluctuate and the Fund’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. For updated performance, visit us at www.alger.com or call us at (800) 992-3863.
