Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1
Long-term capital appreciation. Preservation of capital, while not a goal, is also an important consideration.
The fund invests at least 65% of assets in equity securities of companies that have increased dividends in at least 8 of the last 10 years without decreasing them, doubled dividends over the decade, retain more than 35% of earnings, and carry manageable debt levels. The manager applies fundamental analysis and valuation screening to identify securities trading below intrinsic value, with the remainder of the 80% dividend-paying allocation in companies meeting less stringent criteria. Because performance depends on the manager's security selection and valuation judgments, results may diverge materially from broad market returns.

Mar 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
