an amount that exceeds 15% of the Fund’s total assets. From time to time, the Fund may be invested in
securities of companies in the same economic sector.
The Adviser employs a value investing style, investing in stocks which, in the Adviser’s opinion, trade at a
significant discount to the present value of future cash flows. The Adviser attempts to identify out-of-favor
stocks that represent solid fundamental value. The Adviser identifies these investment opportunities by
employing a disciplined, bottom-up investment process that emphasizes internally generated fundamental
research. The process includes an initial review, in-depth analysis, and employment of the Adviser’s
proprietary valuation methodology. The Fund strives for tax efficiency which may include tax loss harvesting
(i.e., periodically selling positions that have depreciated in value to realize capital losses that can be used to
offset capital gains realized by the Fund) and other tools at the Adviser’s disposal.
Principal Risks
Losing all or a portion of your investment is a risk of investing in the Large Cap Value Fund. The following
additional risks could affect the value of your investment:
•Economic and Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming
increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or
region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. Securities in the Fund’s
portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in general financial markets, a particular financial
market or other asset classes due to a number of factors, including: inflation (or expectations for
inflation); deflation (or expectations for deflation); interest rates; market instability; financial system
instability; debt crises and downgrades; embargoes; tariffs; sanctions and other trade barriers; regulatory
events; other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition,
the value of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as
war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, country instability, and infectious
disease epidemics or pandemics. The imposition by the U.S. of tariffs on goods imported from foreign
countries and reciprocal tariffs levied on U.S. goods by those countries also may lead to volatility and
instability in domestic and foreign markets.
•Equity Securities Risk. The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of economic or political
changes or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. These price
movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, sectors or industries selected for the
Large Cap Value Fund’s portfolio or the securities market as a whole, such as changes in economic or
political conditions.
•Foreign and Emerging Market Securities Risk. Investments in foreign currencies and foreign issuers are
subject to additional risks, including political and economic risks, greater volatility, civil conflicts and
war, sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments, liquidity risks, currency
fluctuations, higher transaction costs, delayed settlement, possible foreign controls on investment,
expropriation and nationalization risks, and less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of
foreign markets. Events and evolving conditions in certain economies or markets may alter the risks
associated with investments tied to countries or regions that historically were perceived as comparatively
stable becoming riskier and more volatile. These risks are magnified in countries in “emerging markets.”
Emerging market countries typically have less-established market economies than developed countries
and may face greater social, economic, regulatory and political uncertainties. In addition, emerging
markets typically present greater illiquidity and price volatility concerns due to smaller or limited local
capital markets and greater difficulty in determining market valuations of securities due to limited public
information on issuers.
•ADR Risk. Investments in ADRs are subject to many of the same risks that are associated with direct
investments in foreign securities. In addition, ADRs may not track the price of the underlying foreign
securities, and their value may change materially at times when the U.S. markets are not open for trading.
