The net expense ratio takes into account contractual fee waivers/expense reimbursements that currently are scheduled to remain in place through 11/30/2025. For periods when fees and expenses were waived and/or reimbursed, the Fund benefited by not bearing such expenses. Without such fee waivers/reimbursements, performance would have been lower.
