Investment Strategy

Seeks to provide long-term growth by investing in mostly large capitalization domestic equities. The strategy seeks market-leading companies that meet our quality criteria with attractive valuations and high “shareholder yield” — which combines a company's annual dividend and its annual rate of stock buybacks. Stocks are selected and weighted based on conviction and are broadly constrained by sector and industry. The strategy is based on a separately managed account launched in December 2001. Please see the prospectus for the performance of that product.

Performance data quoted represents past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data shown without sales charge does not include the load or CDSC. If reflected, the load or fee would reduce the performance quoted. Investment performance reflects fee waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total return would be reduced.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.
Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund:
Foreign investments involve additional risks, including greater volatility and political, economic, and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. Emerging markets countries involve greater risks, such as immature economic structures, national policies restricting investments by foreigners, and different legal systems. Such risks may be magnified with respect to securities of issuers in frontier emerging markets. Medium capitalization companies tend to have limited liquidity and greater price volatility than large-capitalization companies. The Fund may experience higher fees and is subject to additional risks due to investments in other investment companies (including ETFs).

The O'Shaughnessy Funds are distributed by Quasar Distributors, LLC.
