Fund Literature

Pacific Funds Small/Mid-Cap offers shareholders:

Fund Overview

Investment Goal: The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Investment Strategy: The Fund invests in securities that the portfolio management team believes are attractively valued with the potential to exceed investor expectations. Under normal circumstances, this Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in common stocks and other equity securities of small and medium capitalization U.S. companies. The Fund defines small and medium capitalization companies as companies whose market capitalizations fall within the range of the Russell 2500 Index at the time of purchase. The market capitalization of the companies in the Fund's portfolio and the Russell 2500 Index changes over time; the Fund will not automatically sell or cease to purchase stock of a company it already owns just because the company's market capitalization changes.

Fund Performance (as of 6/30/20)

View Daily and Monthly Returns

Returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and distributions. If a sales charge had been deducted, the results would have been lower. Class A, C, and Advisor shares incepted on 1/11/16. The Fund acquired the assets of the Rothschild U.S. Small/Mid-Cap Fund (the Predecessor Fund) in a reorganization transaction on 1/11/16. The Fund’s objectives (goals), policies, guidelines, and restrictions are substantially the same as those of the Predecessor Fund. The performance figures shown for Class A, Class C and Advisor Class shares of the Fund reflect the historical performance of the then-existing Institutional Class shares of the Predecessor Fund for periods prior to 1/11/16. The performance figures for periods prior to 1/11/16 have not been adjusted to reflect fees and expenses of Class A, Class C, and Advisor Class shares of the Fund, respectively. If these returns had been adjusted, then performance for the share classes could vary from the returns shown based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Institutional Class shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations on 12/31/14.

¹Class A shares reflect the deduction of an up-front 4.25% maximum sales load. Class C shares reflect the deduction of a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). When a sales charge is illustrated, it is applied at the beginning of the period. Advisor Class shares are sold at net asset value (NAV) without an initial sales charge and do not include a CDSC. Performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. ²Measures the performance of the small- to mid-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe, commonly referred to as “smid” cap. The Russell 2500 Index is a subset of the Russell 3000^® Index. It includes approximately 2,500 of the smallest securities based on a combination of their market cap and current index membership.

Indexes are unmanaged and cannot be invested in directly. Further, they hold no cash and incur no expenses.

About Principal Risks

All investing involves risk, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment goal. Equity securities tend to go up or down in value, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Small- and mid-capitalization companies may be more susceptible to liquidity risk and price volatility risk, and more vulnerable to economic, market and industry changes than larger, more established companies. 

Investors should consider a fund's investment goal, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus and/or the applicable summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund and are available from your financial advisor. The prospectus and/or summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
