Fund Description

The U.S. Value Fund invests primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies. Equity securities include common and preferred stocks, warrants and rights. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes), measured at the time of purchase, in securities of companies located in the United States. The Fund may invest in securities of companies located outside of the United States. 
The Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets, measured at the time of purchase, in any one company. From time to time, the Fund may invest more than 20% of its assets in any market sector, such as the financial sector or health care sector. Typically, the Fund invests in issuers with a market capitalization greater than $5 billion. 
The U.S. Value Fund may invest from time to time in cash or short-term cash equivalent securities either as part of its overall investment strategy or for temporary defensive purposes in response to adverse market, economic, political or other conditions. The amount of such holdings will vary and will depend on the Advisor’s assessment of the quantity and quality of investment opportunities that exist at any given time, and may at times be relatively high. 
Brandes Investment Partners, L.P., the U.S. Value Fund’s investment advisor (the “Advisor”), uses the principles of value investing to analyze and select equity securities for 
the U.S. Value Fund’s investment portfolio that, in its opinion, are undervalued. When buying equity securities, the Advisor assesses the estimated “intrinsic” value of a company based on data such as a company’s earnings, cash flow generation, and/or asset value of the underlying business. By choosing securities that are selling at a discount to the Advisor’s estimates of the underlying company’s intrinsic value, the Advisor seeks to establish an opportunity for long-term capital appreciation. The Advisor may sell a security when its price reaches the Advisor’s estimate of the underlying company’s intrinsic value, the Advisor believes that other investments are more attractive, or for other reasons.
