Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
How did the Fund perform last year?
  • For the reporting period ended April 30, 2026, the Fund returned 25.57%.
  • For the same period, the S&P Total Market Index returned 31.37% and the Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend Index returned 26.12%.
What contributed to performance?
The financials sector was the largest contributor to the Fund’s return during the reporting period. Both regional and diversified banking firms advanced on improving investor sentiment, resilient credit conditions, stabilizing deposit trends, and a more favorable interest rate environment. Improving market conditions, higher assets under management, and stronger investor sentiment toward capital markets and wealth management businesses benefited the asset management and custody banks segment. Within the utilities sector, electric utilities companies gained on increasing power demand, ongoing grid modernization and electrification investment, and growing electricity needs tied to data center and artificial intelligence related infrastructure development. Meanwhile, the energy sector benefited from resilient oil and fuel demand, and as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East pushed the price of oil significantly higher near the end of the reporting period.
What detracted from performance?
There were no significant detractors from the Fund’s return during the reporting period.

How did the Fund perform last year?
  • For the reporting period ended April 30, 2026, the Fund returned 28.10%.
  • For the same period, the Morningstar US Market Index returned 30.96% and the Morningstar US Large-Mid Cap Broad Value Index (Spliced) returned 28.15%.
What contributed to performance?
Information technology stocks were the largest contributors to the Fund’s return during the reporting period. Stocks in the semiconductors segment advanced as sustained artificial intelligence (“AI”)-related data center investment supported demand for high-bandwidth memory chips and advanced semiconductor manufacturing capacity. In the technology hardware, storage, and peripherals segment, a consumer-focused technology hardware company gained on continued demand for its smartphone lineup, while expanding software and subscription services revenue supported profitability and margins. Within the communication services sector, an interactive media and services company advanced on accelerating advertising revenue growth, driven in part by AI-enhanced search capabilities and continued cloud services expansion. Industrials stocks also added to performance, benefiting from U.S. reshoring initiatives, infrastructure investment, and solid aerospace and defense demand amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty.
What detracted from performance?
During the reporting period, software and services stocks detracted from the Fund’s return, amid concerns over elevated AI infrastructure spending and uncertainty around the timing of investment returns, which pressured valuations.

  • For the same period, the Morningstar US Market Index returned 30.96% and the Morningstar US Mid Cap Broad Value Index (Spliced) returned 27.88%.
What contributed to performance?
Mid-cap value-oriented energy stocks were the largest contributors to the Fund’s return during the reporting period. Companies across the energy value chain benefited from steady U.S. oil production growth and resilient demand, and higher oil prices late in the reporting period amid renewed geopolitical tensions in the Middle East that heightened supply concerns. In the information technology sector, technology hardware and storage companies gained due to improving cloud and artificial intelligence (“AI”)-related infrastructure demand, alongside a recovery in enterprise and data center spending trends. Additionally, stocks in the semiconductors and semiconductor equipment subsector advanced due to improving sentiment toward automotive, industrial, and AI-related chip demand. Financial stocks were supported by stable credit conditions, improving capital markets activity, and solid client asset flows at banking and asset servicing institutions.
What detracted from performance?
During the reporting period, there were no significant detractors from the Fund’s return.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
How did the Fund perform last year?
  • For the reporting period ended April 30, 2026, the Fund returned 18.67%.
  • For the same period, the Russell 3000 Index returned 31.01% and the FTSE Nareit Equity REITS 40 Act Capped Index (Spliced) returned 18.79%.
What contributed to performance?
During the reporting period, healthcare real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) contributed the most to the Fund’s return, driven by strong demand for senior housing as aging demographics and limited new supply supported occupancy gains, rental rate growth, and improving operating fundamentals. Retail REITs also performed well, benefiting from resilient consumer spending, improving tenant demand, and strong occupancy trends that supported rental income growth and leasing activity at high-quality retail properties. Meanwhile, industrial REITs advanced as demand for warehouse and logistics space was supported by e-commerce growth, supply-chain reshoring initiatives, and rising investment in artificial intelligence-related infrastructure and data center development. Rising cloud computing and artificial intelligence-related demand supported leasing activity, pricing power, and continued investment in data center REITs.
What detracted from performance?
There were no significant detractors from the Fund’s return during the reporting period.

How did the Fund perform last year?
  • For the reporting period ended April 30, 2026, the Fund returned 23.11%.
  • For the same period, the Morningstar US Market Index returned 30.96% and the Morningstar Dividend Yield Focus Index returned 23.26%.
What contributed to performance?
The energy sector contributed to the Fund’s return during the reporting period, as oil prices experienced strong gains due to Middle East tensions and supply concerns at the Strait of Hormuz. Integrated oil and gas names gained amid resilient oil prices, disciplined capital spending, and strong cash flow generation. Oil and gas exploration and production names also advanced on stronger crude oil and natural gas prices. Biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies within the healthcare sector also contributed, benefiting from resilient demand for branded therapeutics and continued innovation across immunology and oncology portfolios. Additionally, as large pharmaceutical firms faced upcoming patent expirations on key drugs, many pursued acquisitions of emerging biotechnology companies to strengthen their development pipelines. The information technology sector increased on continued enterprise networking investment, resilient demand for analog and connectivity chips, and growing support from artificial intelligence driven infrastructure buildouts.
What detracted from performance?
There were no significant detractors from the Fund’s return during the reporting period.
