SUMMARY SECTION
Investment Objective
The Fund seeks long-term capital growth while providing some income.
Fees and Expenses of the Fund
This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.
SHAREHOLDER FEES (fees paid directly from your investment)
None
ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Management Fees0.55%
Other Expenses0.47%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses1.02%
   Less: Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement(1)
-0.31%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement0.71%
____________________________________________
(1)The Edgar Lomax Company (the “Advisor”) has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fees and pay expenses of the Fund to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses (“AFFE”), interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.70% of the Fund’s average daily net assets (the “Expense Cap”). The Expense Cap will remain in effect through at least February 27, 2025, and may be terminated only by the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Advisor may request recoupment of previously waived fees and paid expenses from the Fund for 36 months from the date they were waived or paid, subject to the Expense Cap, subject to the Expense Cap at the time such amounts were waived or at the time of recoupment, whichever is lower. In addition, the Advisor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its management fee contingent upon the Fund’s performance versus the S&P 500® Value Index. If the Advisor waives management fees under this arrangement, it has also agreed to absorb all Fund expenses, other than management fees, AFFE, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses. The Advisor has agreed to continue this voluntary waiver arrangement through at least February 27, 2025. While this voluntary waiver arrangement may be discontinued at any time after February 27, 2025, the Advisor has no current intention of doing so. With the voluntary waiver arrangement, actual Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses were 0.50% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023. For more information, please see the “Management Fee and Voluntary Fee Waiver” section in the statutory prospectus.
Example. This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same (taking into account the Expense Cap only in the first year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
1 Year3 Years5 Years10 Years
$73$294$533$1,220

Portfolio Turnover. The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 38.47% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies of the Fund
The Advisor uses a disciplined approach to select stocks for the Fund’s portfolio that it believes are undervalued and have prospects for continued consistent growth. The Advisor uses fundamental analysis of financial statements to select stocks of issuers that generally have low price/earnings and price/book ratios as well as strong balance sheet ratios and high and/or stable dividend yields.
2


The Fund invests primarily in large, well-recognized companies. Currently, the Advisor expects the Fund’s portfolio to hold at least 20% of the stocks comprising the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 100 Index, a capitalization-weighted index of 100 stocks from a broad range of industries. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 85% of its total assets in equity securities, consisting of common stocks and other securities which have the characteristics of common stocks, including, but not limited to, convertible securities, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), rights and warrants.
The Advisor may choose to sell a security when it believes the security no longer offers attractive returns or when the Advisor wishes to take advantage of a better investment opportunity.
Principal Investment Risks
By itself, the Fund is not a complete, balanced investment plan. The Fund cannot guarantee that it will achieve its investment objectives. Losing all or a portion of your investment is a risk of investing in the Fund. The following risks are considered principal and could affect the value of your investment in the Fund:
Equity Securities Risk. The value of the Fund’s shares will go up or down based on the movement of the overall stock market and the value of the individual securities held by the Fund, both of which can sometimes be volatile.
General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in general financial markets, a particular financial market or other asset classes due to a number of factors, including: inflation (or expectations for inflation); interest rates; global demand for particular products or resources; natural disasters or events; pandemic diseases; terrorism; regulatory events; and government controls. U.S. and international markets have experienced significant periods of volatility in recent years and months due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors, which has resulted in disruptions to business operations and supply chains, stress on the global healthcare system, growth concerns in the U.S. and overseas, staffing shortages and the inability to meet consumer demand, and widespread concern and uncertainty. Continuing uncertainties regarding interest rates, rising inflation, political events, rising government debt in the U.S. and trade tensions also contribute to market volatility. Conflict, loss of life and disaster connected to ongoing armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia in Europe and Israel and Hamas in the Middle East could have severe adverse effects on the region, including significant adverse effects on the regional or global economies and the markets for certain securities. The U.S. and the European Union imposed sanctions on certain Russian individuals and companies, including certain financial institutions, and have limited certain exports and imports to and from Russia. The war has contributed to recent market volatility and may continue to do so.
Management Risk. The skill of the Advisor will play a significant role in the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objectives.
Value Style Risk. “Value” investing as a strategy may be out of favor in the market for an extended period. Value stocks can perform differently from the market as a whole and from other types of stocks.
Performance
The following performance information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the annual return for the Fund from year to year. The table shows how the Fund’s average annual returns for the 1-year, 5-year, and 10-year periods compare with those of a broad measure of market performance, as well as two indices that reflect the large-cap value segment of the market. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at www.edgarlomax.com or toll-free at 1‑866‑205‑0524.

Tax Information
The Fund’s distributions are taxable, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement such as a 401(k) plan or an IRA. Distributions on investments made through tax-deferred arrangements may be taxed later upon withdrawal of assets from those accounts.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary, the Fund and/or the Advisor may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.
