Source: Morningstar. Morningstar Ratings may be calculated based on share class adjusted historical returns. If so, the fund’s independent Morningstar Rating metric uses the fund’s oldest class to determine its hypothetical rating for certain periods. Morningstar Ratings are calculated for managed products with a 3-year minimum history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. Rating is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure accounting for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance that emphasizes downward variations more and rewards consistent performance, with no sales load adjustment. In each category, the top 10% receive 5 stars, with 4 stars for the next 22.5%, 3 stars for the next 35%, 2 stars for the next 22.5%, and 1 star for the bottom 10%. Overall Morningstar Rating is derived from a weighted average of the performance associated with its 3-, 5-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics: for 36-59 months of total returns, 100% 3-year rating, for 60-119 months of total returns, 60% 5-year rating/40% 3-year rating, and for 120 or more months of total returns, 50% 10-year rating/30% 5-year rating/20% 3-year rating.

Past performance does not guarantee future results and current performance may be lower or higher than the past performance data quoted. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
For periods prior to July 1, 2019, the Fund’s performance is that of an investment trust (the “Predecessor Fund”), which commenced operations on November 16, 2015. The performance of the Predecessor Fund has been adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses for the applicable class of shares of the Fund. If the performance of the Predecessor Fund had not been adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses of the Fund, the performance may have been higher than the performance shown for each class of shares. The Predecessor Fund was reorganized into the Fund immediately before the Fund commenced operations on July 1, 2019. Prior to the reorganization, the Predecessor Fund was managed by the Fund’s subadviser since its inception (using the same portfolio management team). The investment objective and strategies of the Predecessor Fund were, in all material respects, the same as those of the Fund, and the Predecessor Fund was managed in a manner that, in all material respects, complied with the investment guidelines and restrictions of the Fund. However, the Predecessor Fund was not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") and the Predecessor Fund was not subject to certain investment limitations, diversification requirements, liquidity requirements, daily net asset value calculation requirements and other restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 which, if applicable, may have resulted in different performance.

Total return describes the return to the investor after net operating expenses but before any sales charges are imposed. Lipper average is unmanaged, is based on the average return of all funds in this category, and does not take into consideration applicable sales charges. Unless noted otherwise, Lipper averages and index returns reflect performance beginning the closest month-end date to the Fund's inception. Benchmark since inception average is based on Class Z inception date. SEC standardized return describes the return to the investor after net operating expense and maximum sales charges are imposed. All returns assume share price changes as well as the compounding effect of reinvested dividends and capital gains. Returns may reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Without such, returns would be lower. All returns 1-year or less are cumulative.
Morningstar Nontraditional Bond Category Average: Inclusion in nontraditional bond is informed by a balance of factors determined by Morningstar analysts. Those typically include a mix of: absolute return mandates; goals of producing returns not correlated with the overall bond market; performance benchmarks based on ultrashort-term interest rates such as T-bills; the ability to take long and short market and security-level positions using a broad range of derivatives; and few or very limited portfolio constraints on exposure to credit, sectors, currency, or interest-rate sensitivity. Funds in this group typically have the flexibility to manage duration exposure over a wide range of years and to take it to zero or a negative value.
An investment cannot be made directly in an index or average. All indexes and averages are unmanaged.

Average Maturity is the average time to maturity for a bond. Credit quality is calculated using the highest rating assigned by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) such as Moody’s, S&P, or Fitch. The Not Rated category consists of securities that have not been rated by an NRSRO. Duration measures investment risk that takes into account both a bond's interest payments and its value to maturity. Overweight/Underweights are benchmarked against the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index, which covers the USD-denominated, investment-grade, fixed-rate or step up, taxable bond market of SEC-registered securities and includes bonds from Treasury, Government- Related, Corporate, MBS (agency fixed-rate & hybrid ARM passthroughs), ABS, & CMBS sectors. Securities included in the index must have at least 1 year until final maturity & be rated investment-grade (Baa3/ BBB-/BBB-) or better using middle rating of Moody’s, S&P, & Fitch. All indexes and averages are unmanaged. Due to data availability, statistics may not be as of the current reporting period.
Enhanced cash strategies are variations on traditional money market vehicles. They are designed to provide liquidity and principal preservation, but with more of an emphasis on seeking returns that are superior to those of traditional money market offerings.
