Fund Description

To achieve its investment objective, the Long/Short Opportunity Fund will invest primarily in equity securities that Easterly Investment Partners LLC (“Easterly” or the “Adviser”), the Fund’s investment adviser, believes are undervalued, selling short equity securities the Adviser believes are overvalued and selling short equity securities to hedge market risk. The Fund may also invest in options, futures contracts and options on futures contracts (collectively, “Derivative Instruments”) as a substitute for a comparable market position in the underlying equity security or to attempt to “hedge” or limit the exposure of the Fund’s position in an equity security. Long and short investments can include common and preferred stocks, convertible securities, shares of other investment companies and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that invest in equity securities. With a long position, the Fund purchases a security outright, while with a short position, the Fund sells a security that it has borrowed. When the Fund sells a security short, it borrows the security from a third party and sells it at the then-current market price. The Fund is then obligated to buy the security on a later date so that it can return the security to the lender. The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any size and is not managed toward sector or industry weights. In addition to domestic securities, the Fund may have up to 25% of its net assets invested directly or indirectly in foreign securities.

In addition to equity securities, the Fund may invest up to 50% of its net assets in debt securities of varying maturities and durations, including securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. Government or its agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored entities, and including debt securities that have been rated below investment grade by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization (“NRSRO”), commonly referred to as “junk bonds” or “high yield bonds.” However, the Fund will not purchase debt securities rated as in default by an NRSRO. The Fund invests in debt securities when it anticipates that such securities will increase in value. The Fund’s mix of long positions, including debt securities, and short positions will change over time based on the Adviser’s assessment of market conditions. In addition to direct investments in debt securities, the Fund may invest in other investment companies and ETFs that invest in debt securities.

The Adviser selects investments for the Fund using a bottom-up approach that seeks to identify companies that the Adviser believes are undervalued and are likely to experience a rebound in earnings due to an event or series of events that creates a price to earnings expansion that leads to higher stock price valuations. The Adviser generally attempts to purchase equity securities for the Fund’s portfolio after an event in which the company’s equity valuation has fallen and business conditions are unfavorable, if not at or near a cyclical bottom. This is done in conjunction with extensive research to confirm the Adviser’s opinion that a company can survive the near-term problems. While the Adviser’s analysis does not eliminate the occurrence of short-term equity valuation volatility, the Adviser believes that this process provides for a reasonable level of capital protection. The Fund’s portfolio typically consists of 30 to 60 long equity securities that are weighted according to the Adviser’s projected return expectations. In general, the Adviser may sell an investment when it reaches its target price, when the position grows too large, when the company’s financial position or outlook deteriorates, when an anticipated business catalyst for the investment does not materialize as expected, or to make room in the Fund for a more attractive investment.
