Barrow Hanley Credit Opportunities Fund (BCONX)

A fundamental, active, valuation-centric strategy focusing on security selection to build a bottom-up portfolio within the high-yield universe.

The Fund, managed by a team with deep experience investing through multiple market cycles, utilizes the full breath of the firm's fundamental research capabilities to identify companies across the market-cap spectrum to exploit inefficiencies resulting in a differentiated portfolio.

Investment Objective:

The Fund seeks to maximize total return, consistent with preservation of capital.

Investment Overview:

An actively managed portfolio of high-yield bonds selected through rigorous fundamental analysis focused on cash-flow generation allows us to take advantage of inefficiencies in market prices while reducing portfolio risks. We believe our team approach focused on quality companies can generate competitive returns with lower risk than the broader high-yield market. In our view, the key to success is to know when a high-yield bond of a good company becomes a good high-yield bond investment.

Prospectus
An investor should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing or sending any money. This and other important information about the Funds can be found in the Fund’s(s) prospectus or summary prospectus which can be obtained at www.perpetual.com or by calling 866-260-9549 or 312-557-5913. Please read the prospectus or summary prospectus carefully before investing. The Perpetual Americas Funds are advised by Perpetual Americas Funds Services and distributed through Perpetual Americas Funds Distributors, LLC, member FINRA. The Perpetual Americas Funds are not FDIC-insured, may lose value, and have no bank guarantee.

Investors should note that investments in foreign securities involve additional risks due to currency fluctuations, economic and political conditions, and differences in financial reporting standards.

Smaller company stocks are more volatile and less liquid than larger, more established company securities.

The small and mid-cap companies the Fund may invest in may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger companies and may be more volatile; the price movements of the Fund's shares may reflect that volatility.

Fixed income securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates.

If rates increase, the value of the Fund’s fixed income securities generally declines.

High yield securities (commonly known as “junk bonds”) are generally considered speculative because they may be subject to greater levels of interest rate, credit (including issuer default) and liquidity risk than investment grade securities and may be subject to greater volatility.

Other risks may include and not limited to hedging strategies, derivatives and commodities.

Read the prospectus and summary prospectus carefully before investing. Investing includes the risk of loss.
