What is the Fund’s Investment Objective?

HUSSMAN STRATEGIC ALLOCATION FUND (the “Fund”) seeks to achieve total return through a combination of income and capital appreciation.

What are the Fund’s Fees and Expenses?

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

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 redeem 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 as shown in the preceding table. The Example also takes into account that the investment adviser’s contractual agreement to waive its investment advisory fees and/or to absorb or reimburse Fund expenses remains in effect only until November 1, 2027. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund incurs transaction costs, such as brokerage commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate will result in higher transaction costs for the Fund and may also result in higher taxes for shareholders who hold Fund shares in taxable accounts. These costs, which are not reflected in Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, reduce the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 368% of the average value of its portfolio.

What are the Fund’s Principal Investment Strategies?

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing its assets primarily in common stocks, bonds, and cash equivalents (such as U.S. Treasury bills, U.S. Treasury bonds having remaining maturities of one year or less, and shares of money market mutual funds); and aligning its allocations to these asset classes based on prevailing valuations and estimated expected returns in these markets, as determined by Hussman Strategic Advisors, the Fund’s investment adviser. The investment strategy adds emphasis on risk-management to adjust the Fund’s exposure in market conditions that suggest risk-aversion or speculation among market participants. The Fund may obtain exposure to the stock market by purchasing individual common stocks, stock index futures, or call options on stock indices. The Fund may obtain exposure to bonds by purchasing individual bonds or Treasury bond futures. The Fund may use options and futures on stock indices and Treasury bonds to adjust its relative investment exposures to the stock and bond markets, or to reduce the exposure of the Fund’s portfolio to the impact of general market fluctuations when market conditions are unfavorable in the view of the investment adviser. Assets of the Fund not invested to obtain exposure to stocks or bonds, or used to establish hedging positions, will be invested in cash equivalents.

The Fund varies its investment exposures to stocks, bonds and cash equivalents based on the investment adviser’s analysis of prevailing investment conditions. The Fund’s asset allocation approach combines two components: 1) a value-focused asset allocation component that jointly considers prevailing stock market valuations and interest rates; and 2) a risk-management component that is intended to adjust the sensitivity of the portfolio to general market fluctuations when prevailing market conditions suggest risk-aversion or speculation among market participants.

The Fund’s assets are allocated with the goal of providing for the ongoing long-term inflation-adjusted spending needs of investors, rather than focusing its investment goal on a specific future year or “target date.” The investment adviser regularly determines the value-focused asset allocation based on its estimates of average annual expected returns for stocks, bonds, and cash equivalents over varying time frames, in light of prevailing stock market valuations and interest rate levels. The value-focused allocation reflects the extent to which each respective asset class is expected by the investment adviser to provide the highest expected returns, adjusted for risk, over these varying time frames.

The risk-management component of the asset allocation approach is further intended to reduce the sensitivity of the Fund’s portfolio to the impact of general market fluctuations when, in the judgment

2

of the investment adviser, prevailing conditions suggest that market participants are inclined toward risk-aversion, and to increase the sensitivity of the portfolio to general market fluctuations when, in the judgment of the investment adviser, prevailing conditions suggest that market participants are inclined toward speculation.

In evaluating the inclination of investors toward risk-aversion or speculation, the investment adviser examines the joint behavior of thousands of individual stocks, sectors, industries and security types, including debt securities of varying creditworthiness. Divergence or broad weakness in these measures is generally viewed by the investment adviser as an indication of risk-aversion among investors. In contrast, uniformly broad or indiscriminate advances in these measures are generally viewed by the investment adviser as an indication of speculation among investors. In its evaluation of prevailing market conditions, the investment adviser also considers economic factors, investor sentiment, interest rates, credit-sensitive indicators, and other factors in an attempt to classify prevailing market conditions with historical instances having similar characteristics.

The Fund uses derivatives either to obtain investment exposures consistent with its investment objective and policies, or to hedge its investment exposures. The Fund may seek to reduce (or “hedge”) its exposure to stocks by establishing investment positions that offset its investments in stocks to reduce the impact of general stock market fluctuations on the Fund’s portfolio. Specific strategies for reducing or “hedging” the Fund’s exposure to stocks may include: purchasing put options on stock indices; writing covered call options on stocks which the Fund owns or writing call options on stock indices; or establishing short futures positions or option combinations (such as simultaneously writing call options and purchasing put options) on one or more stock indices considered by the investment adviser to be correlated with the Fund’s stock portfolio. The Fund may seek to reduce (or “hedge”) its exposure to bonds by effecting short sales of Treasury bond futures.

The allocation of the Fund’s assets for investment in the stock and bond markets will vary. However, the Fund will seek to maintain investment exposure to each of the stock market and the bond market of at least 5% of its net assets at all times. During conditions that have historically been strongly favorable for stocks or bonds, the Fund’s investment exposure to either the stock market or the bond market may represent as much as 95% of the Fund’s net assets. The term “investment exposure” means the amount of the Fund’s unhedged investment in common stocks or bonds, respectively, plus the notional value of derivatives used by the Fund to obtain long exposure to the stock market or the bond market. The term “notional value” means the total dollar value of stocks or bonds represented by a derivative security. Subject to these limitations, the Fund may hedge its investment exposure to the stock and bond markets when deemed appropriate by the investment adviser.

The Fund does not borrow for investment purposes, nor does it expect to maintain net “long” investment exposure to the stock and bond markets that, in aggregate, exceeds the value of the Fund’s net assets. This means that the total value of the Fund’s unhedged investments in common stocks and bonds, including the notional value of the Fund’s “long” investment exposure to the stock and bond markets obtained using stock index futures, call options and Treasury bond futures, is not expected to exceed 100% of the Fund’s net assets.

Hedging transactions are intended to reduce the sensitivity of the Fund’s portfolio of stocks or bonds to general market fluctuations, relative to that of a portfolio that is not hedged. The choice of stock indices and instruments used for hedging is based on a consideration of the securities held in the Fund’s portfolio from time to time, and consideration of the availability and liquidity of futures and options on such indices. The Fund hedges using indices that are correlated, although perhaps imperfectly, with the securities owned by the Fund, such as the S&P 500^® Index, and futures based on long-term U.S. Treasury bonds.

The portion of the Fund’s assets allocated to stocks will be invested primarily in individual common stocks favored by the investment adviser. Stocks purchased by the Fund are chosen from the universe of all stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, or the NASDAQ Stock Market. There are no restrictions as to the market capitalizations of companies in which the Fund invests. However, the Fund invests primarily in stocks of companies with market capitalizations in excess of $1 billion, although it may invest a portion of its assets in the stocks of companies having smaller market capitalizations.

In general, the stock selection approach of the investment adviser focuses on securities demonstrating favorable valuations, and/or market action. The primary consideration used by the investment adviser in assessing a stock’s valuation is the relationship between its current market price and the present value of estimated expected future cash flows per share. Other valuation measures, such as the current dividend yield, and ratios of stock price to earnings and stock price to revenue, are also considered in relation to expected future growth of cash flows in an attempt to measure underlying value and the potential for long-term returns. Additional considerations include measures of financial stability such as variations in profit margins and balance sheet indicators. The analysis of market action includes measurements of price behavior and trading volume. The investment adviser believes that strength in these measures is often a reflection of improving business prospects and the potential for earnings surprises above consensus estimates, which can result in increases in stock prices. In the implementation of the Fund’s investment strategy, the Adviser attempts to use day-to-day market fluctuations opportunistically, often using short-term weakness to purchase securities highly ranked based on the Adviser’s investment discipline, and using short-term strength to sell lower-ranked holdings. While the resulting transactions are made in consideration of their expected impact on long-term after-tax returns, greater frequency of such opportunities, as viewed by the Adviser, may be associated with increased portfolio turnover.

The portion of the Fund’s assets allocated to bonds will be invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities having remaining maturities at the time of purchase in excess of one year, but not greater than 30 years. The Fund may also purchase corporate debt of U.S. issuers that at the time of purchase is rated A- or higher by S&P Global Ratings or A3 or higher by Moody’s Ratings, or that has an equivalent rating from another independent rating organization. There is no requirement that the Fund sell corporate debt securities if subsequent to their purchase the rating of the securities is downgraded below these rating standards. However, the Fund

3

will seek to sell those securities in an orderly manner as may be necessary to limit its holdings of such securities to not more than 10% of the Fund’s net assets.

The portion of the Fund’s assets allocated to cash equivalents will typically be invested in U.S. Treasury bills, U.S. Treasury bonds having remaining maturities of one year or less, and shares of money market mutual funds. The Fund may invest to a lesser extent in other high quality short-term instruments, including commercial paper and repurchase agreements.

The Fund is not an index fund, and its investment exposures to the stock and bond markets will vary over time. Because the Fund may invest in securities that are not included in any index and may hedge or reduce its exposure to market fluctuations when market conditions are unfavorable in the view of the investment adviser, the Fund’s investment returns may differ from the performance of other asset allocation strategies, particularly over the short term.

What are the Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund?

Shares of the Fund may fall in value and there is a risk that you could lose money by investing in the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Due to the investment program employed by the Fund and the types of securities in which it invests, the Fund is designed for long-term investors.

Risks of Common Stocks. General stock market movements will affect the prices of the Fund’s common stock investments and thus, the Fund’s share price, on a daily basis. Significant declines are possible both in the overall stock market and in the prices of specific securities held by the Fund.

The values of common stocks may fluctuate significantly, reflecting the business performance of the issuing company, political events, Federal Reserve policy decisions, or general economic conditions. The value of an individual stock may be impacted by conditions that are not specifically related to the particular company, such as investor perceptions of the company or its industry, a lack of confidence, or real or perceived adverse market or political conditions. Investor perceptions may be based on various unpredictable factors, including expectations regarding government, economic or fiscal policies, inflation, economic expansion and global or regional political or economic expectations. Local, regional or global events such as conflicts and war, acts of terrorism, government defaults or shutdowns, natural or environmental disasters, public health emergencies, inflation, recessions, trade disputes, tariffs, sanctions, retaliatory measures, or other economic, political or market developments, could have a significant adverse impact on the Fund and the value of its investments.

The financial markets continue to experience periods of volatility driven by geopolitical tensions, evolving economic conditions, and fiscal uncertainties, including elevated government debt levels and budget negotiations. Inflation remains elevated in certain sectors, increasing concerns about slowing growth, and contributing to uncertainty about the pace, timing and ultimate trajectory of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy. Trade policy developments, including expanded U.S. tariffs and the risk of retaliatory measures, have contributed to higher input costs, supply chain disruptions, and pressure on companies with export exposure or reliance on cross border inputs. Strategic competition between the U.S. and China continues to influence global trade policy and investor sentiment, while broader geopolitical developments, economic instability, and volatility in energy and commodity markets, present continuing challenges to economic stability. In addition, rapid technological and structural changes, including significant investments in artificial intelligence and automation, have contributed to market concentration and uncertainty about corporate earnings, labor market trends, and broader economic impacts. These and other events that may arise in the future could exacerbate pre-existing political, social, and economic risks in ways that cannot be predicted. The value of the Fund’s holdings is also generally subject to the risk of future local, national, or global economic disturbances based on unknown weaknesses in the markets in which the Fund invests.

Risks of Bonds. General interest rate movements will affect the prices of the Fund’s fixed-income securities and thus, the Fund’s share price, on a daily basis. Significant declines are possible both in the prices of fixed-income securities generally and in the prices of specific securities held by the Fund.

Interest rate changes can be sudden and unpredictable and a wide variety of factors can cause interest rates to change, such as central bank monetary policies, inflation rates, supply and demand, and general economic conditions. When interest rates rise, the value of bonds held by the Fund is likely to decline. Such price declines will be proportionally greater when the Fund emphasizes bonds with longer maturities, since they are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than bonds with shorter maturities. It is difficult to accurately predict the direction of interest rates.

The Fund could lose money if the issuer of a bond in which it has invested fails to make scheduled principal or interest payments, or if the credit rating of the issuer is downgraded. If a security’s rating is downgraded, the Fund is not required to sell the security. Corporate debt generally has the greatest degree of credit risk among the bonds in which the Fund may invest. When a debt security is rated below investment-grade (a so-called “junk” bond), it may be more difficult for the Fund to sell the security at a price approximating its market value, and there is greater risk of default in the payment of interest and principal.

Cash Equivalents. If the general stock or bond market advances during a time when the Fund holds a large amount of cash equivalents, the Fund’s investment return might be lower than it would if it had invested a larger percentage of its assets in stocks or fixed income investments. When the Fund invests in shares of money market mutual funds, the Fund bears its pro rata share of the fees and expenses of those funds, in addition to the Fund’s own fees and expenses. As of June 30, 2026, the Fund had approximately 37.4% of its net assets invested in shares of a single money market fund.

Portfolio Management Risks. The success of the Fund’s investment program depends largely on the investment adviser’s skill in assessing the potential returns of the Fund’s investments and determining the allocation of the Fund’s assets among stocks, bonds and cash equivalents. It also depends on the investment adviser’s use of hedging strategies that may not be employed by many other mutual funds. There is no assurance that these strategies will be

4

successful. The use of hedging strategies to vary the Fund’s exposure to general market fluctuations over the course of the market cycle may significantly reduce or eliminate the Fund’s participation in rising equity markets and adversely impact the investment performance of the Fund. Also, because the Fund’s investment position at any given time will vary depending on the investment adviser’s assessment of current conditions in the stock and bond markets, the Fund may substantially underperform the broad equity market indices if the Adviser’s market outlook is incorrect or its hedging positions are maintained during extended market advances. The Fund’s share price and investment return may fluctuate or deviate more significantly from overall market returns than funds that do not employ similar strategies. For example, if the Fund has taken a defensive posture by hedging its positions to reduce the sensitivity of its portfolio to stock or bond market fluctuations, and the market advances, the return to investors in the Fund will be lower than if the portfolio had maintained a larger exposure to the market. Alternatively, if the Fund has increased the sensitivity of its portfolio to stock or bond market fluctuations, the Fund will experience a larger loss in the event of a market decline. The investment adviser’s assessment of market conditions may not account for every possible factor, and some factors may be deemed more significant than others.

Market Capitalization Risk. The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in the stocks of companies having smaller market capitalizations, including mid-cap and small-cap stocks. The stocks of these companies often have less liquidity than the stocks of larger companies and these companies frequently have less management depth, narrower market penetrations, less diverse product lines, and fewer resources than larger companies. Due to these and other factors, stocks of smaller companies may be more susceptible to market downturns and other events, and their prices may be more volatile than stock prices of larger companies. To the extent the Fund invests in larger companies, the Fund may be affected by the risk that large-cap companies may be unable to respond quickly to competitive challenges, changes in technology or other market developments, and may experience slower growth rates than smaller companies during certain market environments.

Hedging and Derivatives Risks. The Fund may hedge its investment exposure to stocks by purchasing put options on stock indices; by writing covered call options on stocks which the Fund owns; by writing call options on stock indices; or by establishing short futures positions or option combinations (such as simultaneously writing call options and purchasing put options) on one or more stock indices considered by the investment adviser to be correlated with the Fund’s portfolio of common stocks. The Fund may hedge its investment exposure to bonds by effecting short sales of U.S. Treasury futures. To the extent the Fund hedges its investment positions as part of its investment program, its investment performance may deviate significantly from the performance of a passive investment portfolio of stocks and bonds for substantial portions of a market cycle. When market conditions are unfavorable in the view of the investment adviser and the Fund’s holdings are hedged, the Fund may not benefit from general advances in the stock or bond markets to the same extent as if the Fund was not hedged. The Fund’s hedging strategy may also result in the investment performance of the Fund having limited correlation with the performance of the general stock and bond markets for meaningful periods of time, including periods of sustained advances in the stock or bond markets.

The derivatives used by the Fund for hedging purposes are subject to specific risks. When the Fund hedges by purchasing put options on stock indices, the Fund may incur a net loss of time value on the purchased options. When the Fund hedges by writing covered call options on stocks which the Fund owns, the Fund may not benefit from price advances in those stocks to the same extent that it would if the Fund had not employed hedging. When the Fund hedges its portfolio using short stock index futures, short Treasury bond futures, or option combinations (such as simultaneously writing stock index call options and purchasing stock index put options), the Fund may incur a loss even when its portfolio is hedged if the returns on its positions in stocks and bonds do not exceed the returns of the securities and financial instruments used to hedge. This is known as “tracking risk” (or alternatively, “basis risk”).

The Fund does not invest solely in the securities that are included in any index or invest in business sectors in the same proportion as such sectors may be represented in any index. For this reason, the hedging strategies used by the Fund do not eliminate market risk or provide complete protection against adverse changes in the prices of individual securities or securities within particular business sectors. When options are owned by the Fund, it is possible that they may lose value over time, even if the prices of the securities underlying the options are unchanged. The Fund may purchase futures contracts on broad-based stock indices to obtain investment exposure to the stock market, and may purchase futures contracts on U.S. Treasury securities to obtain investment exposure to the bond market. These purchases seek capital appreciation or income, consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies. When a futures contract is purchased by the Fund, the risk assumed by the Fund is the same as if the Fund had directly invested in the stocks comprising the underlying stock index or in U.S. Treasury securities in the same amount as the notional value of the futures contract.

Monetary Policy and Political Risk. In response to the global financial crisis that began in 2008 and subsequent periods of economic and financial stress, the U.S. Government and the Federal Reserve Board implemented a variety of measures designed to support economic activity and financial market functioning, including maintaining historically low short-term interest rates and purchasing large quantities of U.S. Government securities (commonly referred to as quantitative easing). In response to rising inflation, the Federal Reserve subsequently increased interest rates and reduced the size of its balance sheet through the sale or runoff of U.S. Government securities (commonly referred to as quantitative tightening). The timing and extent of changes in monetary policy may be affected by economic and market conditions, including inflation, employment levels, and economic growth. There is a risk that future actions by the U.S. Government to stimulate economic growth, control inflation, or promote financial market stability, including increases or decreases in short-term interest rates, or changes in its holdings of U.S. Government securities, could result in increased market volatility, reduced liquidity, and decreases in the value of the securities held by the Fund. In addition, concerns about the federal budget deficit, the growing level of U.S. Government debt, and the long-term sustainability of U.S. fiscal policy, along with political disputes involving government fundings and appropriations, taxation, and other fiscal policy matters, could adversely affect the financial markets and the value of the securities held by the Fund.
