1Victory Capital Management Inc. (the “Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual fund operating expenses (excluding certain items such as acquired fund fees and expenses, if any, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, capitalized expenses, and other extraordinary expenses) do not exceed an annual rate of 0.43% of the Fund through at least August 31, 2027. The Adviser is permitted to recoup management fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.
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 sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

Victory Extended Market Index Fund Summary
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 rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when shares of the Fund 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. For the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 17% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategy
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of borrowings, if any, for investment purposes) in securities included in the Index. This strategy may be changed upon 60 days’ prior written notice to shareholders.
The Index is a market-cap weighted index consisting of the small- and mid-cap companies in the U.S. equity market.The Index consists of the securities within the VettaFi US Equity 3000 IndexSM (“Parent Index”) after eliminating the largest 500 companies. The Parent Index measures the performance of the largest 3000 U.S. equity securities with readily available price data. The number of securities in the Index fluctuates and may be more or less than 2,500. As of June 30, 2026, the market capitalization range of the companies included in the Index was between $40 million and less than $4.842 trillion. The size of companies in the Index changes with market conditions and the composition of the Index.
In seeking to track the performance of the Index, the Fund uses the “sampling” method of indexing. Under this approach, the Fund selects a representative sample of stocks and/or derivatives that resemble the Index in terms of industry weightings, market capitalization, and other characteristics. It is not the Fund’s intent to fully replicate the Index.
Principal Risks
The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:
General Market Risk – Overall market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, terrorism, trade disputes, inflation rates, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, cybersecurity incidents, pandemics and other public health crises, imposition of tariffs, sanctions against a particular foreign country, its nationals, businesses or industries, and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires, and floods, or other catastrophes may add to instability in global economies and markets generally and may lead to increased market volatility. Global economies and financial markets are highly interconnected, which increases the possibility that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.
Equity Securities Risk – The values of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general market, economic, and political conditions, and other factors. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected due to poor management decisions, competitive pressures, breakthroughs in technology, reliance on suppliers, labor problems or shortages, tariffs, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, natural disasters, military confrontations, war, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions, and factors. Price changes may be temporary or may last for extended periods. Equity securities have the lowest priority, and the greatest risk, with respect to dividends and any liquidation payments in the event of an issuer’s bankruptcy.
Small-Capitalization and Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk – The Fund invests in small- and mid-capitalization companies, which may be more vulnerable than larger companies to adverse business or economic conditions. Securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies may be less

Victory Extended Market Index Fund Summary
liquid and more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market in general and, therefore, may involve greater risk than investing in securities of larger companies.
Tracking Error Risk – While the Fund attempts to match the performance of the Index as closely as possible before the deductions of fees and expenses, the ability of the Fund to meet its investment objective depends to some extent on the cash flow in and out of the Fund. The Fund’s performance may be affected by factors such as the size of the Fund’s portfolio, transaction costs, management fees and expenses, and brokerage commissions and fees. Changes in the Fund’s cash flow may affect how closely the Fund tracks the Index. The Fund’s use of representative sampling may cause the tracking error to be higher than would be the case if the Fund purchased all of the securities in the Index.
Passive Management Risk – The Fund is managed with a passive investment strategy, attempting to track the performance of an unmanaged index of securities, regardless of the current or projected performance of the Fund’s Index or of the actual securities included in the Index. This differs from an actively managed fund, which typically seeks to outperform a benchmark index. As a result, the Fund’s performance could be lower than actively managed funds that can shift their portfolio assets to take advantage of market opportunities or lessen the impact of a market decline or a decline in the value of one or more issuers.
Any investment involves risk, and there is no assurance that a Fund’s objective will be achieved. By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan. As you consider an investment in the Fund, you also should take into account your tolerance for the daily fluctuations of the financial markets and whether you can afford to leave your money in the Fund for long periods of time to ride out down periods. As with other mutual funds, losing money is a risk of investing in a Fund.
An investment in a Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
Investment Performance
The following bar chart and table are intended to help you understand some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart illustrates the Fund’s volatility by showing how performance has varied from year to year for each full calendar year over the past 10 years. The table shows how the average annual total returns of the Fund for the periods indicated compared to those of the Fund’s regulatory broad-based securities market index and against additional indices with investment characteristics similar to the Fund. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. Performance reflects any expense limitations in effect during the periods shown.
Remember, historical performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate what will happen in the future. The Fund’s most current performance information is available on the Fund’s website at vcm.com or by calling (800) 235-8396.

2The Blended-Victory Extended Market Index/Wilshire 4500 Completion Index performance reflects that of the Wilshire 4500 Completion Index, the Fund’s prior index, through November 30, 2023, and the Victory Extended Market Index from December 1, 2023, onward.
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. In certain situations, the return after taxes on distributions and sale of fund shares may be higher than the other return amounts. A higher after-tax return may result when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and translates into an assumed tax deduction that benefits the shareholder. The actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. If you hold your shares through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as an individual retirement account (“IRA”) or 401(k) plan, the after-tax returns shown in the table are not relevant to you.
