Example
 
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.  The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of these periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same.  Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:
 
1 Year
3 Years
5 Years
10 Years
$98
$306
$531
$1,178
 
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 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 30% of the average value of its portfolio.
 
Principal Investment Strategies:   The Fund invests mainly in a limited number of large capitalization (namely, companies with more than $5 billion market capitalization) value stocks of companies listed or traded on a national securities exchange or on a national securities association, including foreign securities traded on a national securities exchange or on a national securities association.  In addition, the Fund invests in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) or American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), which are dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers traded in the U.S.
 
The Fund may invest in ADRs through both sponsored and unsponsored arrangements.  Issuers of the securities underlying sponsored ADRs, but not unsponsored ADRs, are contractually obligated to disclose material information in the United States.  Therefore, the market value of unsponsored ADRs is less likely to reflect the effect of such information.
 
The Fund uses fundamental analysis to look for stocks of good businesses that are selling at value prices in an effort to achieve above average performance with below average risk.  The Fund believes good businesses have some or all of the following characteristics:
 
A strong, defendable market niche or products and services niche that is difficult to replicate
 
A high degree of relative recurring revenue
 
Modestly priced products or services
 
Attractive return-on-investment economics (namely, where return on investment exceeds a company’s cost of capital over a three to five year period)
 
Above-average growth or improving profitability prospects
 

 
 

 
 
The Fund considers valuation:
 
On both an absolute and relative to the market basis
 
Utilizing both historical and prospective analysis
 
In reviewing companies, the Fund applies the characteristics identified above on a case-by-case basis as the order of importance varies depending on the type of business or industry and the company being reviewed.
 
The Fund’s portfolio managers will generally sell a portfolio security when they believe:
 
The security has achieved its value potential
 
Such sale is necessary for portfolio diversification
 
Changing fundamentals signal a deteriorating value potential
 
Other securities have a better value potential
 
Principal Risks:   There is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your money on your investment in the Fund.  This risk may increase during times of significant market volatility.  The risks below could affect the value of your investment, and because of these risks the Fund is a suitable investment only for those investors who have long-term investment goals:
 
 
Stock Market Risk:   The prices of the securities in which the Fund invests may decline for a number of reasons. The price declines of common stocks, in particular, may be steep, sudden and/or prolonged. Price changes may occur in the market as a whole, or they may occur in only a particular company, industry, or sector of the market.
 
 
Medium Capitalization Companies Risk:   Medium capitalization companies tend to be more susceptible to adverse business or economic events than large capitalization companies, and there is a risk that the securities of medium capitalization companies may have limited liquidity and greater price volatility than securities of large capitalization companies.
 
 
Large Capitalization Companies Risk:   Large capitalization companies may grow more slowly than the overall economy and tend to go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions, and the Fund may underperform investments that focus on small or medium capitalization companies.
 
 
Non-Diversification Risk:   Because the Fund is non-diversified (meaning that compared to diversified mutual funds, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer), the Fund’s shares may be more susceptible to adverse changes in the value of a particular security than would be the shares of a diversified mutual fund.  Thus, the Fund is more sensitive to economic, business and political changes which may result in greater price fluctuations of the Fund’s shares.
 
 
Value Investing Risk:   The Fund’s portfolio managers may be wrong in their assessment of a company’s value and the stocks the Fund holds may not reach what the portfolio managers believe are their full values. From time to time “value” investing falls out of favor with investors. During these periods, the Fund’s relative performance may suffer.
 
 
Foreign Securities Risk:   Stocks of non-U.S. companies (whether directly or in ADRs or ADSs) as an asset class may underperform stocks of U.S. companies, and such stocks may be less liquid and more volatile than stocks of U.S. companies.  The costs associated with securities transactions are often higher in foreign countries than in the U.S.  The U.S. dollar value of foreign securities traded in foreign currencies (and any dividends and interest earned) held by the Fund or by ETFs in which the Fund invests may be affected unfavorably by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. An increase in the U.S. dollar relative to these other currencies will adversely affect the Fund, if the positions are not fully hedged. Additionally, investments in foreign securities, whether or not publicly traded in the United States, may involve risks which are in addition to those inherent in domestic investments. Foreign companies may not be subject to the same regulatory requirements of U.S. companies and, as a consequence, there may be less publicly available information about such companies.  Also, foreign companies may not be subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements comparable to those applicable to U.S. companies.  Foreign governments and foreign economies often are less stable than the U.S. Government and the U.S. economy.
 

 
 

 
Performance:   The following bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year and how the Fund’s average annual returns over time compare to the performance of the Standard & Poor’s Composite Index of 500 Stocks ® (“S&P 500”).  For additional information on this index, please see “Index Descriptions” in the Prospectus.  The Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.  Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at http://www.fmifunds.com.
