There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment strategy will be a success or that the protection sought by the fund will be achieved. Investment loss is possible.
ASPY Fund Specific Risk: The performance of the Fund will depend on the difference in the rates of return between its long positions and short positions. During a rising market, when most equity securities and long-only equity ETFs are increasing in value, the Fund’s short positions will likely cause the Fund to underperform the overall U.S. equity market. When the Fund shorts securities, including securities of another investment company, it borrows shares of that security or investment company, which it then sells. There is no guarantee the Fund will be able to borrow the shares it seeks to short in order to achieve its investment objective. The Fund’s investments are designed to respond to volatility based on a proprietary model developed by the Index Provider which may not be able to accurately predict the future volatility of the S&P 500® Index. If the S&P 500® Index is rapidly rising during periods when the Index Provider’s volatility model has predicted significant volatility, the Fund may be underexposed to the S&P 500® Index due to its short position and the Fund would not be expected to gain the full benefit of the rise in the S&P 500® Index. Additionally, in periods of rapidly changing volatility, the Fund may not be appropriately hedged or may not respond as expected to current volatility. The Fund is not actively managed and the Adviser would not sell a security due to current or projected underperformance of a security, industry or sector, unless that security is removed from the Index.
MORE and ZSPY are subject to New Fund Risk: The Fund is a recently organized investment company with no operating history. As a result, prospective investors have no track record or history on which to base their investment decision.
MORE Fund Specific Risk: REIT Investment Risk: Investments in REITs involve unique risks. REITs may have limited financial resources, may trade less frequently and in limited volume, and may be more volatile than other securities. REITs may be affected by changes in the value of their underlying properties or mortgages or by defaults by their borrower or tenants. Utilities Sector Risk: Utility companies are affected by supply and demand, operating costs, government regulation, environmental factors, liabilities for environmental damage and general civil liabilities, and rate caps or rate changes. The value of regulated utility equity securities may tend to have an inverse relationship to the movement of interest rates. Debt Securities Risk: Investments in debt securities subject the holder to the credit risk of the issuer. Credit risk refers to the possibility that the issuer or other obligatory of a security will not be able or willing to make payments of interest and principal when due. Generally, the value of debt securities will change inversely with changes in interest rates. During periods of falling interest rates, the income received by the Fund may decline. U.S. Treasury Securities Risk: U.S. Treasury securities may differ from other securities in their interest rates, maturities, times of issuance and other characteristics. Although U.S. Treasury securities are backed by the “full faith and credit” of the United States, the U.S. Government does not guarantee the market value of these securities, and consequently, the market value of such securities may fluctuate. MLP Risk: MLP investment returns are enhanced during periods of declining or low interest rates and tend to be negatively influenced when interest rates are rising. In addition, most MLPs are fairly leveraged and typically carry a portion of a “floating” rate debt. As such, a significant upward swing in interest rates would also drive interest expense higher. Fixed Income v Equity Risk: There are material differences between fixed income and equity assets to consider. Stocks have unlimited growth potential but also more volatile and involve greater risks. While stocks give investors partial ownership in a corporation, bonds are issued debt which are subject credit, interest, and prepayment risk, but tend to provide more stability through regular income payments but less upside. Bonds are also higher on the capital structure, therefore, in the event of insolvency a bond’s principal will be returned before an equity shareholder, which are last in line in the capital structure.
ZSPY Fund Specific Risk Leverage Risk: The Fund will invest in futures as a principal investment strategy. Futures and other derivative investments give rise to a form of leverage. Leverage is investment exposure that exceeds the initial amount invested. The loss on a leveraged investment may far exceed the Fund’s principal amount invested. Leverage can magnify the Fund’s gains and losses and therefore increase its volatility. Long/Short Risk: The performance of the Fund will depend on the difference in the rates of return between its long positions and short positions. Unlike with a long position, losses on a short position could be much greater if the value of the security that the Fund is shorting increases because the cost of covering a short position is potentially unlimited. Volatility Risk: The Fund’s investments are designed to respond to historical or realized volatility based on a proprietary model developed and implemented by the Index Provider, which is not intended to predict the future volatility of the S&P 500 Index. If the S&P 500 Index is rapidly rising during periods when the Index Provider’s volatility model has predicted significant volatility, the Fund may be underexposed to the S&P 500 Index due to its short position, and the Fund would not be expected to gain the full benefit of the rise in the S&P 500 Index. Additionally, in periods of rapidly changing volatility, the Fund may not be appropriately hedged or may not respond as expected to current volatility. In periods of extreme market volatility, the Index’s strategy, and consequently the Fund, may underperform due to the backward-looking nature of the Index's model.
