PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 7% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY OF THE FUND
The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies that the Adviser believes have above-average growth potential at attractive prices. The Adviser generally does not base stock selections on a company's size, but rather on assessment of its fundamental outlook. As a result, the Fund may own stocks of all market capitalizations, or all cap. The Fund will generally hold between 25 and 40 common stocks.
The Adviser's investment process begins with an analysis of the economy and various macroeconomic factors, followed by an evaluation of sectors and industries. It then focuses on the most attractive companies in these areas based on qualitative and quantitative factors. The Adviser's investment strategy often involves overweighting the Fund's position in the sectors and industries the Adviser believes offer the best risk-reward; this can result in significant differences in weightings between the Fund and its benchmark. The Adviser invests with a long-term focus and seeks to keep the Fund's portfolio turnover to a minimum relative to its peers. The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies, but may, to a lesser extent, invest in equity REITs, common stocks of foreign companies and American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") that meet the investment criteria of the Fund. The Adviser may sell a security if the reason for its original purchase changes or when it believes better opportunities are available.
The Fund has adopted a policy that it will invest at least 80% of its net assets, under normal circumstances, in equity securities. This policy may be changed by the Fund upon 60 days' notice to shareholders.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND
The Fund's share price will fluctuate. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund and the Fund could also return less than other investments. The Fund is subject to the principal risks summarized below. The order of the below risk factors does not indicate the significance of any particular risk factor and the relative significance of each risk below may change over time.
Equity Securities Risk: The Fund is subject to the risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/ or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by these companies may decline in response to such developments, which could result in a decline in the value of the Fund's shares.
Foreign Securities Risk: The Fund is subject to the risk that investing in securities of foreign (non-U.S.) companies may result in the Fund experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies, due to less liquid markets and adverse economic, political, diplomatic, financial, and regulatory factors. Foreign governments also may impose limits on investment and repatriation and impose taxes. Any of these events could cause the value of the Fund's investments to decline. ADRs are securities that evidence ownership interests in a security or a pool of securities issued by a foreign issuer. The risks of ADRs include many risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities, such as individual country risk and liquidity risk.
Growth Investing Risk: The Fund is subject to the risk that the Adviser's bias towards a growth-oriented style of investing may underperform other investment styles or the equity markets as a whole. A principal risk of growth investing is that prices of growth stocks may be more sensitive to changes in current or expected earnings than the prices of other stocks.
Investment Focus Risk: The Fund will not concentrate its investments (i.e., invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets) in securities of issuers in any industry or group of industries. Although the Fund is diversified, the Fund may invest more heavily in sectors and industries which it believes offer the best risk-reward. As of the date of this Prospectus, the Fund currently invests a significant portion of its assets in the technology sector. Poor performance or adverse economic events affecting one or more of an overweighted sector or industry could have a greater impact on the Fund than it would on another mutual fund with a broader range of investments.
| Summary Prospectus | February 28, 2026 | 3 |
Large Cap Risk: Large cap risk is the risk that stocks of larger companies may underperform relative to those of small and mid-sized companies. Large cap companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes, and also may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.
Management Risk: Management risk is the risk that a strategy used by the Adviser may fail to produce the intended results.
Market Risk: Market risk is the risk that the market value of a security may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably.
Mid Cap Risk: Mid cap risk is the risk that stocks of mid-sized companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than stocks of larger, more established companies. Mid-sized companies may have limited product lines or financial resources and may be dependent upon a particular niche of the market.
REITs Risk: REITs must satisfy specific requirements for favorable tax treatment and can involve unique risks in addition to the risks generally affecting the real estate industry. REITs are dependent upon the quality of their management, may have limited financial resources and heavy cash flow dependency, and may not be diversified geographically or by property type.
Small Cap Risk: Small cap companies may be more vulnerable than large cap and mid cap companies to adverse business or economic developments. Securities of such companies may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of larger companies and therefore may involve greater risk.
Technology Sector Risk: As of its most recently completed fiscal year, the Fund held investments in the technology sector that represented a material portion of the Fund's asset value. Technology companies face competition and potentially rapid product obsolescence. They are also heavily dependent on intellectual property rights and may be adversely affected by the loss or impairment of those rights. Companies in the technology sector are facing increased government and regulatory scrutiny and may be subject to adverse government or regulatory action. Companies in the software industry may be adversely affected by, among other things, the decline or fluctuation of subscription renewal rates for their products and services and actual or perceived vulnerabilities in their products or services.
