Kennametal Inc. 0.38 2.74 0.43 0.24 1.47 - During the fourth quarter, US equity markets were volatile as investors worried about geopolitical issues, global economic growth and falling oil prices. However, the broad market, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, still managed to post a gain for the fourth quarter, as did small capitalization indexes. Within the Russell 2000 Value Index, sector performance was mixed, with utilities and health care performing the best and energy performing the worst during the quarter. Performance highlights - The fund’s Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) posted a gain, but underperformed the Russell 2000 Value Index. (Please see the investment results table on page 2 for fund and index performance.) Performance drivers were mainly stock specific. Select holdings in the financials, consumer staples and information technology (IT) sectors were among the largest contributors to fund performance. Select investments in energy, consumer discretionary and industrials were among the largest individual detractors. Contributors to performance - Property & casualty insurance company AmTrust Financial Services Inc. performed well in the fourth quarter after reporting strong financial results for the third quarter of 2014. - Shares of beauty products company Elizabeth Arden Inc. rose after the company reported results for its first quarter of fiscal 2015 that were better than consensus expectations. Management also reiterated fiscal year 2015 guidance. After a series of disappointing results in fiscal year 2014, the stock rallied due to signs of business stabilization. Detractors from performance - Oil and gas exploration company Goodrich Petroleum Corp. and oil & gas equipment and services company McDermott International Inc. declined during the fourth quarter along with the overall energy sector. - Shares of apparel company Abercrombie & Fitch Co. fell after management reported fiscal third-quarter profit and a full-year outlook that were below expectations. Positioning and outlook - We use an intrinsic value approach to select investments for the fund. We seek to create wealth by maintaining a long-term investment horizon and investing in companies that we believe are significantly undervalued on an absolute basis. - During the quarter, we sold several holdings based on valuation and other factors. We also initiated new positions in stocks where we see better upside potential based on our estimate of intrinsic values. - We believe the fund is well diversified and positioned to benefit from areas where we see the best valuation opportunities, based on our bottom-up stock selection approach. - Going forward, we will work hard to protect and grow the fund’s estimated intrinsic value. We thank you for your investment and for sharing our long-term perspective.

An investment in a derivative could lose more than the cash amount invested. An investment in developing/emerging market countries carries greater risks compared to more developed economies. The risks of investing in securities of foreign issuers can include fluctuations in foreign currencies, political and economic instability, and foreign taxation issues. Stocks of small and mid-sized companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse developments, may be more volatile, and may be illiquid or restricted as to resale. A value style of investing is subject to the risk that the valuations never improve or that the returns will trail other styles of investing or the overall stock markets. The fund is subject to certain other risks. Please see the current prospectus for more information regarding the risks associated with an investment in the fund.
