Fund Description

To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of small-cap U.S. companies. The fund currently considers small-cap companies to be those companies with total market capitalizations that are equal to or less than the total market capitalization of the largest company included in the Russell 2000® Growth Index (the Index), the fund's benchmark index. As of December 31, 2023, the market capitalization of the largest company in the Index was approximately $14.993 billion.

The fund's sub-adviser, Newton Investment Management North America, LLC, an affiliate of BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc., employs a growth-oriented investment style in managing the fund's portfolio, which means the sub-adviser seeks to identify those small-cap companies which are experiencing or are expected to experience rapid earnings or revenue growth. The sub-adviser focuses on high quality companies and individual stock selection, instead of trying to predict which industries or sectors will perform best, and selects stocks by:

●Using fundamental research to identify and follow companies considered to have attractive characteristics, such as strong business and competitive positions, solid cash flows and balance sheets, high quality management and high sustainable growth; and

●Investing in a company when the sub-adviser's research indicates that the company will experience accelerating revenues and expanding operating margins, which may lead to rising estimate trends and favorable earnings surprises.

The fund's investment strategy may lead it to emphasize certain sectors, such as information technology, communication services, health care, consumer discretionary and industrials.

The sub-adviser monitors the securities in the fund's portfolio, and will consider selling a security if the company's business momentum deteriorates or valuation becomes excessive. The fund also may sell a security if an event occurs that contradicts the sub-adviser's rationale for purchasing it for the fund, such as deterioration in the company's financial fundamentals. In addition, the fund may sell a security if better investment opportunities emerge elsewhere.
