Strictly in accordance with its guidelines and mandated procedures, S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (the Index Provider) compiles, maintains and calculates the Underlying Index, which is designed to measure the performance of approximately 60 securities in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index that historically have provided high dividend yields while exhibiting lower volatility. The Underlying Index selects constituents from the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, which is comprised of common stocks of approximately 600 small-capitalization companies that generally represent the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity market. The Index Provider identifies the 90 securities in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index with the highest dividend yields over the past 12 months, with no one Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS ) sector within the S&P SmallCap 600 Index allowed to contribute more than 10 securities. From those securities, the Index Provider selects for inclusion in the Underlying Index the 60 securities with the lowest realized volatility over approximately the past 12 months. Volatility is a statistical measurement of the magnitude of up and down asset price fluctuations (increases or decreases in a stocks price) over time. The Underlying Index weights each constituent security by its trailing 12-month dividend yield, with higher dividend-yielding securities receiving proportionally greater weights. As of October 31, 2025, the Underlying Index was comprised of 60 constituents with market capitalizations ranging from $481.5 million to $4.9 billion. The Fund employs a full replication methodology in seeking to track the Underlying Index, meaning that the Fund generally invests in all of the securities comprising the Underlying Index in proportion to their weightings in the Underlying Index. The Fund intends to be diversified, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), to the extent that the Underlying Index is diversified. The Fund may become non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act solely as a result of a change in relative market capitalization or index weighting of one or more constituents of the Underlying Index. Should the Fund become non-diversified, it will no longer be required to meet certain diversification requirements under the 1940 Act and may invest a greater portion of its assets in securities of a small group of issuers or in any one individual issuer than can a diversified fund. Shareholder approval will not be sought when the Fund crosses from diversified to non-diversified status solely due to a change in relative market capitalization or index weighting of one or more constituents of the Underlying Index. In seeking to track the Underlying Index, the Fund was managed as diversified as of August 31, 2025. Concentration Policy. The Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., invest more than 25% of the value of its net assets) in securities of issuers in any one industry or group of industries only to the extent that the Underlying Index reflects a concentration in that industry or group of industries. The Fund will not otherwise concentrate its investments in securities of issuers in any one industry or group of industries. As of August 31, 2025, the Fund had significant exposure to the real estate sector. The Fund's portfolio holdings, and the extent to which it concentrates its investments, are likely to change over time. Show less
