Investment Objective

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation through investment primarily in large-cap U.S. common stocks that are trading at prices below what are believed to be their intrinsic value, in accordance with the Fund's corporate responsibility standards and strategies.

Investment Strategy

The Fund offers opportunities for long-term growth of capital through investments in large-cap company equity securities that the portfolio manager believes are undervalued. The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the common stocks of large-cap companies, as defined by those within the range of market capitalizations of the Russell 1000 Value Index. The Advisor seeks to identify common stocks of companies it believes are significantly undervalued compared to their perceived worth or prospects, historical valuations or the general market level of valuation. The Advisor primarily uses a bottom-up approach focused on fundamental analysis of issuers in a number of different sectors and industries, in light of the issuers' current financial condition and industry position, as well as market, economic, political and regulatory conditions. The Fund has threshold responsibility standards with respect to tobacco, weapons and human rights, which it applies in determining whether a security qualifies for investment.

Investment Risk

Investment in mutual funds involves risk, including possible loss of principal invested. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund or the Fund could underperform because of the following risks: the market prices of stocks held by the Fund may fall; individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected; and/or the Fund’s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result. The Fund's value-oriented investing approach may fall out of favor with investors from time to time, during which the Fund may underperform other funds using different investment approaches. In addition, the market may not recognize a security’s intrinsic value for a long time, or a stock judged to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced, and it may not appreciate as anticipated. Large-cap companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology, and also may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

Standard Deviation is a measure of a fund's risk. A standard deviation of 1 means a fund can be expected to produce an annual return that is +/-1% of its average annual return 66% of the time.
Alpha is a measure of the difference between a fund's actual returns and its expected performance, given its level of risk as measured by beta.
Beta is a measure of portfolio risk relative to the market or benchmark. A portfolio beta of 1.0 indicates a risk level equal to that of the fund's benchmark.
Excess Return is return in excess of the risk-free rate or in excess of a benchmark.
R Squared is a statistical measure that represents the percentage of a fund's movements that can be explained by movements in its benchmark index.
Tracking Error is the difference in the return earned by a portfolio and the return earned by the benchmark against which the portfolio is constructed.
Information Ratio is a measure of the consistency of excess return of a mutual fund as compared to its benchmark.
Sharpe Ratio is used to measure risk-adjusted performance. It is calculated by using standard deviation and return in excess of the benchmark to determine reward per unit of risk.
