Allianz Global Investors Managed Accounts manages the NFJ Small-Cap Value accounts using a model portfolio developed by the sub-advisor NFJ as a guide.

Earnings growth is the percentage increase or decrease from the prior period's earnings. P/E is a ratio of security price to earnings per share. Typically, an undervalued security is characterized by a low P/E ratio, while an overvalued security is characterized by a high P/E ratio. P/B is a ratio of the current stock price to the book value. This is used to identify undervalued stocks. Beta measures the market related volatility of a portfolio, where the overall market is represented by the S & P 500 for equity portfolios. The beta of the market is 1 by definition. A beta greater than 1 indicates that a portfolio's market risk is greater than the overall market's, while a beta less than 1 indicates a lower market risk. It is important to note that having a low market risk does not necessarily imply low volatility. A portfolio may have a low beta while experiencing volatility as a result of factors independent of the market. Portfolio yield is the weighted average dividend yield of the stocks in the portfolio.
Investing in securities entails risk. Investments in smaller companies may be more volatile than investments in larger companies. When investing in value securities, the market may not necessarily have the same value assessment as the manager, and, therefore, the performance of the securities may decline.
