Investment Objective

The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation through investment primarily in small-cap common stocks of U.S. companies that meet the Fund's investment criteria, including financial, sustainability, and social responsibility factors and that, at the time of purchase, are considered by the Advisor to be attractively valued.

Investment Strategy

The Fund offers opportunities for long-term capital appreciation with a moderate degree of risk through a mix of smaller company stocks that meet the Fund's investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors. The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in common stocks of small-cap companies. The Fund currently defines small-cap companies as those with a market capitalization of $3 billion or less at the time of initial purchase. The Fund's investment process combines active stock selection and systematic portfolio construction to produce a portfolio that is capable of achieving positive excess returns with relatively low active risk (tracking error) relative to the Russell 2000 Index. The Fund seeks to invest in companies and other enterprises that demonstrate positive environmental, social and governance performance as they addess corporate responsibility and sustainability challenges.

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; the individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected; and/or the Fund’s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result. Prices of small cap stocks can be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. Small cap companies are more likely to have more limited product lines, fewer capital resources and less depth of management than larger companies.

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.
