2 JAG Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund to the extent necessary to limit operating expenses (excluding brokerage costs; borrowing and liquidity costs such as interest and dividends on securities sold short; taxes; underlying/acquired fund expenses; and extraordinary expenses) at 1.50%, 1.25% and 0.90% for Class A, Class I and Class R, respectively, through January 31, 2024. This agreement may only be terminated by the Board of Trustees on 60 days’ written notice to the Adviser, by the Adviser with the consent of the Board of Trustees, or upon the termination of the Management Agreement between the Trust and the Adviser. Fee waivers and expense reimbursements are subject to possible recoupment by the Adviser from the Fund in future years on a rolling three-year basis (within the three years after the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if, after such recoupment is taken into account, the recoupment can be achieved within the lesser of the expense limitation in place at the time of waiver/reimbursement and the expense limitation in place at the time of recapture.

 

 

Example: This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated, and then hold or redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example reflects the fee waiver and expense reimbursement for the duration of the waiver/reimbursement period only. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

 

YEAR          Class A Class I Class R
1 $720 $128 $93
3 $1,045 $421 $312
5 $1,392 $735 $548
10 $2,368 $1,626 $1,227

Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 was 78% of the value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies that the Fund’s adviser, JAG Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”), believes have strong earnings and revenue growth potential. Under normal conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes in large cap stocks defined as stocks of companies with market capitalizations of at least $8 billion.

 

The Adviser employs a bottom-up, quantitatively-derived buy discipline to identify stocks the Advisor believes have superior earnings and revenue growth characteristics. The cornerstone of the Adviser’s investment process is a proprietary multi-factor model that scores several thousand equity securities according to a variety of weighted factors measuring earnings and revenue growth, valuation, size and relative strength. The sell discipline is designed to eliminate portfolio holdings with inferior price performance and deteriorating earnings and revenue growth factors.

 

The Fund actively trades its portfolio investments, which may lead to higher transaction costs that may affect the Fund’s performance.

 

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

As with any mutual fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. Investment markets are unpredictable and there will be certain market conditions where the Fund will not meet its investment objective and will lose money. The Fund’s net asset value and returns will vary and you could lose money on your investment in the Fund and those losses could be significant.

The following summarizes the principal risks of investing in the Fund. These risks could adversely affect the net asset value, total return and the value of the Fund and your investment.

·Equity Securities Risks. Common stocks are susceptible to general stock market fluctuations and to volatile increases and decreases in value as market confidence in and perceptions of their issuers change. Investor perceptions are based on various and unpredictable factors, including expectations regarding government, economic, monetary and fiscal policies; inflation and interest rates; economic expansion or contraction and global or regional political, economic and banking crises.

 

·Growth Stock Risk. "Growth" stocks can react differently to issuer, political, market, and economic developments than the market as a whole and other types of stocks. "Growth" stocks also tend to be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared to other types of stocks.

 

·Investment Model Risk. Like all quantitative analysis, the investment model utilized by the Adviser carries the risk that the ranking system, valuation results and predictions might be based on one or more incorrect assumptions, insufficient historical data, inadequate design, or may not be suitable for the purpose intended. In addition, a model may not perform as intended for many reasons including errors, omissions, imperfections or malfunctions. Because the use of a model is usually constructed based on data supplied by third parties, the success of the Adviser’s use of such model is dependent on the accuracy and reliability of the supplied data. Historical data inputs may be subject to revision or corrections, which may diminish data reliability and quality of predictive results. Changing and unforeseen market dynamics could also lead to a decrease in the short-term or long-term effectiveness of a model. A model may lose its predictive validity and incorrectly forecast future market behavior and asset prices, leading to potential losses. No assurance can be given that a model will be successful under all or any market conditions.

 

·Large Capitalization Company Risk. Large-capitalization companies may be less able than smaller capitalization companies to adapt to changing market conditions. Large-capitalization companies may be more mature and subject to more limited growth potential compared with smaller capitalization companies.

 

·Management Risk. The portfolio manager’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular stocks, options or other securities in which the Fund invests or sells short may prove to be incorrect and there is no guarantee that the portfolio manager’s judgment will produce the desired results.
·Technology Sector Risk. Technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. Companies in the technology sector are

heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. The loss or impairment of these rights may adversely affect the profitability of these companies.

oSoftware Industry Risk. Software companies can be significantly affected by competitive pressures, aggressive pricing, technological developments, changing domestic demand, the ability to attract and retain skilled employees and availability and price of components. The market for products produced by software companies is characterized by rapidly changing technology, rapid product obsolescence, cyclical market patterns, evolving industry standards and frequent new product introductions.

Performance: The bar chart and accompanying table shown below provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing the total return of its Class A shares for each full calendar year, and by showing how its Class A, Class I and Class R shares’ average annual returns compare over time with those of a broad measure of market performance and a supplemental index. Although Class I and Class R shares have similar annual returns to Class A shares because the classes are invested in the same portfolio of securities, the returns for Class I and Class R shares are different from Class A shares because Class I and Class R shares have different expenses than Class A shares. Sales charges are reflected in the information shown below in the table, but the information shown in the bar chart does not reflect sales charges and, if it did, returns would be lower. How the Fund has performed in the past (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how it will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available at no cost by calling 855-552-4596.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries: If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
