Performance Narrative [Text Block]
The fund has not commenced operations as of the date of this prospectus. Simultaneous with the fund’s commencement of operations, which is anticipated to occur on or about September 28, 2026, the fund will acquire the assets and assume the liabilities of the Putnam Focused Equity Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) in a reorganization (the “Reorganization”). As a result of the Reorganization, the fund will adopt the performance and financial history of the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6 shares.
The accompanying bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Predecessor Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the Predecessor Fund’s performance from year to year (represented by the performance of the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6). The table shows the average annual total returns of the Predecessor Fund and also compares the Predecessor Fund’s performance with the average annual total returns of a broad measure of market performance, an additional index with characteristics relevant to the fund, and the Linked S&P 500 Index, which represents the performance of the MSCI World Industries Index-NR through June 23, 2019, and the performance of the S&P 500 Index thereafter. Before June 24, 2019, the Predecessor Fund was managed with a materially different investment strategy and may have achieved materially different performance results under its current investment strategy from that shown for periods before this date. The fund has the same investment goal and substantially similar strategies as the Predecessor Fund, and the performance of the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6 shares shown below has not been adjusted to reflect the lower net expense ratio attributable to the fund. As a result, the performance returns of the fund
for the periods shown would have been different than those of the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6 shares. Had the Predecessor Fund been structured as an ETF, its performance may have differed.
The fund makes updated performance information, including its current net asset value per share, available at www.franklintempleton.com.
The fund’s (and Predecessor Fund’s) past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the fund will perform in the future.
