Fund Description

The Fund seeks to achieve its objectives by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying common stocks. The Fund may invest the balance of its assets in preferred stocks, convertible bonds, U.S. Treasury securities, and closed‑end investment companies.
The Adviser invests in dividend paying growth-oriented companies it believes exhibit the potential for growth and growing dividend payments. The Adviser believes that a company’s earnings growth is a primary determinant of its potential long-term return, and that a record of increasing dividend payments is a strong indicator of financial health and growth prospects. By investing in dividend paying stocks it is anticipated that the holdings will tend to be in large to medium‑sized companies (companies with market capitalizations in excess of $2 billion). The Adviser considers several factors in its evaluation of a company’s potential for above average long-term earnings, revenue, and dividend growth, including:
a record of paying dividends,
strong prospects for growing dividend payments indicated in part by growing earnings and cash flow,
unique product or service,
growing product demand,
dominant and growing market share,
management experience and capabilities, and
strong financial condition.
Since stocks that pay dividends tend to be less volatile and may not experience the same capital appreciation as stocks that don’t pay dividends, the Fund’s diversified portfolio of dividend paying stocks is expected to have lower volatility than that of the S&P 500 Index, but with a higher dividend yield and greater prospects for dividend growth.
The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in securities of issuers domiciled outside the U.S.
The Fund may invest in open‑end investment companies (mutual funds) and closed‑end investment companies which invest in the same types of securities in which the Fund may invest directly.
When selling equity securities for the Fund, the Adviser considers several factors, including changes in a company’s fundamentals, anticipated earnings, anticipated dividend payments and financial position.
