The performance quoted represents past performance, which is no indication of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all distributions. Returns shown at net asset value do not reflect the current maximum sales charge, had the sales charge been included, returns would have been lower. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, on any given day or when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Therefore, there can be no assurance for future results.

Of the 5000 largest domestic stocks in their equities database, the top 1% are categorized as Giant, the next 4% are Large, the next 15% are Mid, the next 30% are Small, and the remaining 50% are Micro. Stocks outside of the largest 5000 are also classified as Micro.

The net expense ratio takes into account contractual fee waivers/expense reimbursements that currently are scheduled to remain in place through 02/28/2023. 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.
