The daily section presents performance dating from the inception of the actual share class only.

 

**This is the inception date of the oldest share classes, which for this Fund includes the A, C, D, Institutional and Administrative share classes. The returns presented are for A shares, and measure performance from the inception of the oldest share classes to the present. Total return performance assumes that all dividend and capital gains distributions were reinvested on the payable date and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

 

The Fund normally invests its assets in smaller companies which may entail greater risk than larger companies, including higher volatility. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities including emerging markets, IPOs and in the technology and/or healthcare sectors. Investing in foreign securities entails additional risks, including political and economic risk and the risk of currency fluctuations; these risks may be enhanced in emerging markets. IPOs are subject to risk in that the securities have no trading history and the price may be volatile. Concentrating investments in individual sectors may add additional risk and additional volatility compared to a diversified equity portfolio. This Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of its investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. In unfavorable market conditions, the fund may invest in high quality fixed income securities.

 

The Russell 1000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of companies in the Russell 1000 Index considered to have a greater than average growth orientation.

 

^The Lipper Category returns and rankings are calculated by Lipper Inc., a Reuters Company, which is a nationally recognized organization that compares the performance of mutual funds with similar investment objectives. The Category returns represent the average performance of included funds, while rankings compare an individual funds returns to those of the other funds in its category. Both are based on total return performance, with capital gains and dividends reinvested, with annual operating expenses deducted, but without including front- or back-end sales charges. Rankings begin with the actual share class inception. Rankings are relative to a peer group and do not necessarily mean that the fund had high total returns.

 

Growth of $10,000 and Best/Worst 1-Year Period results are calculated at NAV and assume that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. They do not take into account sales charges or the effect of taxes. Results are not indicative of future performance.
