Performance

CUMULATIVE NET RETURNS (AS OF 10/31/24)

Biotechnology Innovation Performance Chart 10-31-24

Past performance cannot guarantee future results.Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal and fluctuation of value. Returns greater than one year are annualized. Returns are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. Composite returns are net of transaction costs and gross of non-reclaimable withholding taxes (if any and unless otherwise noted), and reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings.
Net performance results do not reflect the deduction of investment advisory fees actually charged to the accounts in the composite but do reflect the deduction of model investment advisory fees based on the maximum fee rate in effect for the respective time period, adjusted for performance-based fees where applicable. Actual advisory fees may vary among clients invested in the strategy and may be higher or lower than model fees. Returns for each client will be reduced by such fees and expenses as described in the individual contract and, where applicable, in Form ADV Part 2A.

High absolute short-term performance is not typical and may not be achieved in the future. Such results should not be the sole basis for evaluating material facts in making an investment decision.
