Objective
Long-term capital appreciation

Investment Philosophy
Investing in attractively valued companies with growing earnings and sound finances will generate superior long-term investment returns.

Investment Process
The Fund employs a two-step disciplined, repeatable process:

1. Our proprietary analytical process identifies large-cap companies with:

• Strong earnings
• Capability to grow
• Strong financial structure
• Significant free cash flow
• Attractive valuations poised to appreciate

2. Our research-driven process selects companies with characteristics necessary for long-term appreciation:

• Validate data and underlying assumptions
• Evaluate management's strategic vision and ability to execute
• Assess the impact of industry trends and economic environments
• Evaluate company's ability to withstand bad times

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal amount invested.

Investments in mid-sized companies present a greater risk of loss than investments in large companies.

Growth funds are generally more sensitive to market moves and thus may be more volatile than other stocks.
