Strategy. Under normal circumstances, the Fund pursues its objective by investing at least 80% of its assets (net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities that the Adviser considers having value characteristics.

The Value Fund invests primarily in common stocks of large-cap U.S. companies. The Fund defines large-cap securities as those with a market capitalization greater than $11 billion. Although the Value Fund intends to invest primarily in large-cap stocks as described above, it may also invest in common stocks of any capitalization. The Value Fund may also pursue its investment objective directly or indirectly through investments in other investment companies (including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), mutual funds, and closed-end funds) that invest in the securities described above. Pinnacle Wealth Advisors (the Adviser) employs a selection process designed to produce a diversified portfolio of companies exhibiting both value and positive momentum characteristics. Value characteristics include a historically low stock price and historically low fundamental ratios, such as price-to-earnings, price-to-sales, price-to-book-value, and price-to-cash-flow. Positive momentum characteristics include positive earnings revisions, positive earnings surprises, relative price strength, and other developments that may favorably affect a companys stock price, such as a new product or a change in management. The Adviser seeks to reduce risk through diversification and the ownership of undervalued companies, which may be less volatile than overpriced companies whose fundamentals do not support their valuations. The Adviser generally seeks companies that it believes are well-capitalized, globally diversified, and have the resources to weather negative business conditions successfully. Most stocks in the Value Funds portfolio fall into one of the Advisers seven strategic focus areas: healthcare, technology, financial services, communications/entertainment, consumer, consolidating industries ( i.e. , companies buying other companies in an industry), and industries that, in the past, have declined less than others during general market declines ( i.e. , defensive industries). The Adviser believes that stocks in these focus areas have the potential to produce superior long-term returns. In addition, the Adviser carefully diversifies the Value Funds holdings to ensure representation in most, if not all, major broad-based industry sectors defined by Standard & Poors Global Inc. (S&P). The Value Fund typically will sell a portfolio company if (1) a companys stock price exceeds the Advisers target sell price and (2) the company demonstrates that it may be losing positive momentum as described above. The Value Fund also could sell a portfolio company earlier if the Adviser believes that the companys stock price may not reach the Advisers target sell price due to a material event, such as major industry-wide change, a significant change in the companys management or direction, the emergence of a better opportunity within the same industry, or if the company becomes involved in a merger or acquisition. As a result of the Advisers overall strategy, the Value Fund engages in active trading of portfolio securities, which may cause it to experience a high portfolio turnover rate. Show less
