Investment Objective
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation and current income through investments in equity securities of companies with a mid-sized market capitalization and that currently pay, or are reasonably expected to pay dividends to shareholders. The Adviser currently defines mid-cap market capitalization as securities within the range of the Russell Midcap® Value Index at the time of investment. The market cap range of the index changes daily, and as a result, the capitalization of small cap companies in which the Fund invests will also change.
Investment Philosophy
Our philosophy is to deliver above average long-term results with less volatility due to the application of a value-oriented investment style. Our investment team uses a bottom-up, fundamental approach to stock selection focusing the majority of the portfolio on dividend paying mid-cap companies.
Risk
Smaller and medium-sized company stocks are more volatile and less liquid than larger more established company securities. Dividend paying investments may not experience the same price appreciation as non-dividend paying investments. Portfolio companies may choose not to pay a dividend or it may be less than anticipated.

The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for funds with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The top 10% of funds in each fund category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. Ratings are for the Fund's I Share Class; other classes may vary.
