Hodges Capital Management, Inc. (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and pay the Hodges Fund's expenses (excluding taxes, interest expenses, interest on short positions, portfolio transaction expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, Rule 12b-1 fees, shareholder servicing fees and any other class specific expenses) in order to limit Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement for the Hodges Fund to 0.93% of the Hodges Fund's average net assets (the "Hodges Fund Expense Cap"). The Hodges Fund Expense Cap will remain in effect until July 31, 2027. The agreement may be terminated at any time by the NLFT II Board upon 60 days' written notice to the Adviser, or by the Adviser with the consent of the NLFT II Board. The Adviser is permitted, with NLFT II Board approval, to receive reimbursement from the Hodges Fund for fees it waived and Fund expenses it paid, subject to the limitation that (1) the reimbursement for fees and expenses will be made only if payable within three years from the date the fees and expenses were initially waived or reimbursed and (2) the reimbursement may not be made if it would cause the expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver or currently in effect, whichever is lower, to be exceeded. |

Example. This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Hodges Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Hodges Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Hodges Fund's operating expenses remain the same and takes into account the effect of the Operating Expenses Limitation Agreement through July 31, 2027. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:
| One Year | Three Years | Five Years | Ten Years | |
| Retail Class | $121 | $429 | $759 | $1,692 |
Portfolio Turnover. The Hodges 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 Hodges Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Hodges Fund's performance. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, the Hodges Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 89% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies. The Hodges Fund will invest in common stocks of companies of any size market capitalization - small, medium or large. The Hodges Fund's portfolio managers will invest in both growth and value companies. The Adviser's stock selection process focuses on rigorously researching individual companies and examining what is happening inside those companies. The Adviser studies and analyzes the fundamentals of each company's earnings, cash flow, and intrinsic underlying value and will invest in those companies where it believes there is a disconnect between the market's perception and the intrinsic value of the company's fundamentals. In selecting investments, the Adviser will also invest where it is deemed appropriate in companies having special situations and whose shares are out of favor, but appear to have prospects for above-average growth and recovery over an extended period of time. Special situations refer to circumstances where companies face significant stress which may cause stock values to depreciate below expected thresholds. Companies having special situations include, but are not limited to, companies that are experiencing management changes, financial distress, corporate restructurings, government inquiries, or are especially susceptible to the negative impact of market conditions.
From time to time, the Fund may engage in short sale transactions with respect to 10% of its net assets. The Fund may also invest in money market instruments and may, from time to time, purchase put and call options on U.S. traded stocks or security indices. The Fund may also sell options and write "covered" put and call options. The Hodges Fund is permitted to invest up to 10% of its net assets in securities futures and options.
The Hodges Fund may also invest in the stocks of foreign companies, including those in emerging markets, which are U.S. dollar denominated and traded on a domestic national securities exchange, including American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") European Depositary Receipts ("EDRs") and Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs").
The Adviser will consider selling a security in the Hodges Fund's portfolio if that security has become overvalued or has reached its growth potential. In addition, in an attempt to increase the Hodges Fund's tax efficiency or to satisfy certain tax diversification requirements, the Adviser may take tax considerations into account in deciding whether or when to sell a particular stock. The Hodges Fund's portfolio turnover could exceed 100% in a given year. A high portfolio turnover may result in the realization and distribution of capital gains, as well as higher transaction costs. The Fund may, from time to time, have significant exposure to one or more sectors of the market.

Performance. The following performance information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Hodges Fund. The bar chart below illustrates how Retail Class shares of the Hodges Fund's total returns have varied from year to year for the past 10 calendar years. The table below illustrates how the Hodges Fund's average annual total returns for the 1-year, 5-year and 10-year periods compare with that of a broad-based securities index. The Hodges Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how it will perform in the future.

Prior performance shown below is for the Predecessor Hodges Fund (the Hodges Fund, a former series of Professionally Managed Portfolios) for dates prior to September 25, 2023. The Hodges Fund has adopted the performance of the Predecessor Hodges Fund as a result of a reorganization in which the Hodges Fund has acquired all the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Hodges Fund (the "Reorganization"). Prior to the Reorganization, the Hodges Fund was a newly formed "shell" fund with no assets and had not commenced operations.
The Hodges Fund's portfolio management team served as the portfolio management team of the Predecessor Hodges Fund and has been the Hodges Fund's portfolio management team since inception.

After tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. After tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates in effect and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. The after-tax returns shown may not be relevant to those investors who hold their shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts ("IRAs"). "Return After Taxes on Distributions" shows the effect of taxable distributions (dividends and capital gains distributions) but assumes that Fund shares are still held at the end of the period.
The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged market capitalization weighted index of 500 of the largest capitalized U.S. domiciled companies. Investors may not invest in the indexes directly; unlike the Fund's returns, the indexes do not reflect any fees or expenses.

Distributions on investments made through tax-deferred arrangements may be taxed later upon withdrawal of assets from those accounts.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries. If you purchase shares of the Hodges Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
