Strategy. Under normal market conditions, the Fund pursues its objective by investing in long and short positions of domestic equity and equity-related securities (including swaps and other derivative investments giving long or short exposure to domestic equity securities). The Fund will ordinarily hold simultaneous long and short positions in equity securities or securities markets that provide exposure up to a level equal to 150% of the Funds net assets for both the long and short positions. That level of exposure is obtained through stocks or derivatives, including swap agreements (which include but are not limited to, total return swap agreements). The Funds typical investment exposure ranges from net long of 80% of net asset value to net short exposure of 20% … Show more… Under normal market conditions, the Fund pursues its objective by investing in long and short positions of domestic equity and equity-related securities (including swaps and other derivative investments giving long or short exposure to domestic equity securities). The Fund will ordinarily hold simultaneous long and short positions in equity securities or securities markets that provide exposure up to a level equal to 150% of the Funds net assets for both the long and short positions. That level of exposure is obtained through stocks or derivatives, including swap agreements (which include but are not limited to, total return swap agreements). The Funds typical investment exposure ranges from net long of 80% of net asset value to net short exposure of 20% of net asset value. The overall investment exposure will change as market opportunities change and may be outside this range based on the Advisers view of current market conditions. The Fund may invest in domestic equity securities, including small-, mid-, and large-capitalization securities. The Fund defines: ? large-capitalization as those companies with market capitalizations generally falling within the range of the S&P 500 Index. The capitalization range of the S&P 500 Index is between $5.5 billion and $4.5 trillion as of December 31, 2025. ? mid-capitalization as those companies with market capitalizations generally within the range of the S&P MidCap 400 Index. The capitalization range of the S&P MidCap 400 Index is between $502 million and $33 billion as of December 31, 2025. ? small-capitalization as those companies with market capitalizations generally within the range of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index. The capitalization range of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index is between $310 million and $9.2 billion as of December 31, 2025. The Fund may also invest in derivative instruments, including swaps on selected baskets of equity securities, to enable it to pursue its investment objective without investing directly in the securities of companies to which the Fund is seeking exposure. The Fund may also invest in derivatives, such as options and futures contracts, to hedge or gain leveraged exposure to a particular sector, industry, market risk factor, or company or to obtain or replicate market exposure depending on market conditions. The Fund will often invest in instruments traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market, which generally provides less transparency than exchange-traded instruments. The Fund also may enter into long positions or short sales of broad-based stock indices for hedging purposes to reduce the Funds risk or volatility through, among other instruments, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and closed-end funds. In selecting funds and ETFs for investment, the Adviser will prioritize investments that align with and support the Funds overall strategy. While the Fund anticipates investing in these securities and instruments to achieve its investment objective, the extent of the Funds investment in these securities and instruments may vary depending on several factors, including price, availability, and general market conditions. The Fund may hold U.S. government securities, short-term, high-quality (rated AA or higher) fixed-income instruments, money market instruments, overnight and fixed-term repurchase agreements, cash, and other cash equivalents with maturities of one year or less to collateralize its derivative positions. The Fund may also enter into repurchase agreements with counterparties deemed to present acceptable credit risks. In buying and selling securities for the Fund, the Adviser will apply its proprietary h-factor scores (h-factor) methodology to its security selection process. The avoid the losers philosophy is fundamental to the underlying actuarial-like approach of the Adviser with respect to asset management. In its attempts to generate alpha, the Adviser does not aim to pick the winners; instead, it aims to avoid the losers. A loser is a company that, according to the Advisers investment methodology, cannot deliver revenue growth to support its stock price. The Adviser has developed a probability-based measure to identify and avoid these stocks, called the h-factor (h-Factor), which is the foundation of the Advisers investment philosophy. The h-factor measures the probability a company cannot deliver the revenue growth indicated by its stock price. H-factor uses an algorithm rooted in actuarial risk principles to construct a portfolio with exposure to returns across sectors, styles, geographies, and asset classes. Using an actuarial-based approach, h-factor aims to identify underpriced and overpriced securities and assign them an h-factor score, which is the probability that the issuer will not deliver revenue growth to support the securities current price. By assigning these scores, the Adviser seeks to avoid the overpriced securities and invest in the underpriced securities. The Fund will sell investments when they no longer meet the Advisers investment criteria, market conditions change, to meet redemption requests, or close or unwind derivatives transactions. Due to its investment strategy, the Fund may buy and sell securities frequently. This may result in higher transaction costs and more capital gains tax liabilities than a fund with a buy and hold strategy. Show less
