Investments in small capitalization companies believed to be undervalued and that pay, or are expected to pay, a dividend.
XXXXXXXXX
The Fund intends to pursue its investment objective by investing in equity securities of companies with a small market capitalization and that currently pay, or are reasonably expected to pay, dividends to shareholders. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest no less than 80% of its net assets in “dividend-paying” common stocks and other equity type securities (including preferred stock, convertible debt securities and warrants) of “small cap” companies, which the Adviser currently defines as securities within the range of the Russell 2000® Value Index at the time of investment.
The KEELEY Small Cap Dividend Value Fund seeks capital appreciation and current income.
We focus our research efforts across a broad array of dividend-paying stocks. In evaluating the overall quality of a company, we view the investment universe in four distinct areas. Depending on company-specific valuations – as well as the current macroeconomic environment, we categorize equities into each of these groups: 1) Attractive, 2) Growers, 3) Solid-Steady and 4) High-Yield. From these four categories, fundamental research helps our team assess the sustainability of a dividend by analyzing the company’s cash flow, balance sheet and dividend history.

A graphical measurement of a portfolio’s net return that simulates the performance of an initial investment of $10,000 over the given time period.
Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Due to market volatility, current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Total return and average annual returns are historical and reflect changes in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and are net of expenses. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so, upon redemption, shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.

The Fund’s share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio securities. Stocks are subject to market, economic and business risks that cause their prices to fluctuate. When you sell Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them. Consequently, you can lose money by investing in the Fund.
Standard deviation is a statistical measure of the volatility of a fund’s returns. Beta measures a fund’s risk relative to its benchmark which, by definition, has a beta of 1.00. If a fund’s beta is less than 1.00, the fund is considered less risky than the market. Alpha is a measure of a fund’s actual returns and expected performance, given its level of risk (as measured by beta). Upside/downside capture ratio show you whether a given fund has outperformed, gained more or less than, a broad market benchmark during periods of market strength and weakness, and if so, by how much. R-squared is a statistic that indicates how much of a fund’s fluctuations were attributable to movements of the fund’s benchmark index.

The inception date of the Fund was December 1, 2009. Smaller and medium-sized company stocks are more volatile and less liquid than larger, more established company securities. Dividend paying investments may not experience the same price appreciation as non-dividend paying investments. Dividend paying stocks do not assure a profit or guarantee against a loss. Companies may choose to stop paying dividends at their own discretion. Portfolio companies may choose not to pay a dividend or it may be less than anticipated. The Russell 2000® Value Index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the small-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe and includes those Russell 2000 companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
