Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q2
Seeks to maximize capital appreciation.
The fund invests at least 80% of assets in stocks of small-capitalization companies with market capitalizations of $2.0 billion or less, selected through fundamental analysis that identifies stocks trading below their private market value—the price informed investors would pay to acquire the entire company. The Sub-Adviser may also hold preferred stocks and warrants believed to offer capital growth, and may invest in foreign securities. A sub-adviser makes day-to-day investment decisions using proprietary research to focus on strong companies in out-of-favor sectors or those exhibiting a catalyst for change. Because returns depend on the Sub-Adviser's security selections and valuations, results may diverge from those of other small-cap value strategies.

Share of the fund’s equity (by value) in companies whose trailing five-year revenue — or net-income — growth ranks in the top 25% of U.S. public companies.

Return profile
Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to Apr 2026
May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
This fund changed legal form during the period shown. The history above is continuous — it spans both eras, and the change is not a gap in reporting.
