Normally, the Gilead Fund invests primarily in a broad range of equity securities of any market capitalization. The Fund may invest without limitation in securities in companies domiciled outside the United States either directly or through American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”).

The Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”) analyzes the performance of potential investments not only for financial strength and outlook, but also for companies that are capable of serving well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” From time to time, the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in the stock of companies in one or more sectors of the economy, such as the technology, industrial, healthcare and life sciences sectors. The Fund may invest in private companies and other issuers whose securities may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid (“Illiquid Investments”), which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in Illiquid Investments. The Fund may invest in development stage companies. The Adviser may use options strategies, such as puts and covered calls on individual securities, as well as options on securities indices, to generate income, to reduce portfolio volatility, or to reduce downside risk when the Adviser believes adverse market, political or other conditions are likely. The Adviser may also utilize a combination of puts and/or calls on the same security (sometimes referred to as “straddles,” “collars” or “spreads”) or utilize puts and calls on related securities.

Faith-Based Screening. The Adviser uses its proprietary screening methodology to analyze all potential investments for the company’s ability to operate with integrity and to create value for customers, employees, and other stakeholders by reflecting the values described below. The values assessed in the Adviser’s screening process are inspired by the Christian faith and rooted in a biblical worldview. While few companies may reach these ideals in every area of their business, these principles articulate the Adviser’s highest expectations for the companies in which the Fund invests. The Adviser uses its screening process in connection with other fundamental research processes to establish the Fund’s eligible investment universe. Securities are generally ineligible within the Fund’s portfolio unless the Adviser believes that the faith-based screens are met. If the Adviser’s research identifies events and/or business changes suggesting that a portfolio company no longer meets the faith-based criteria, the Fund may hold the company’s securities while the Adviser performs additional research, including possible direct engagement with the company to assess practices. The Adviser’s faith-based screening process for potential investments does not apply relative weights between values-based factors and financial factors. There is no guarantee that the Adviser will be able to successfully screen out all companies that are inconsistent with the following principles which help to guide the Adviser’s research and investment framework. Specifically, the Adviser seeks to invest in companies that reflect the following values:

■

Respecting the value and freedom of all people: this includes the right to life at all stages and freedom from addictive behaviors caused by gambling, pornography, tobacco, and alcohol.

■

Demonstrating a concern for justice and peace: this includes fair and ethical relationships with customers, suppliers, and business partners and avoiding products and services that promote weapons production and proliferation.

■

Promoting family and community: this includes protecting children from violent forms of entertainment and serving low-income communities.

■

Exhibiting responsible management practices: this includes fair dealing with employees, communities, competitors, suppliers, and customers as demonstrated by a company’s record regarding litigation, regulatory actions against the company, and its record of providing products and services that improve the lives of people.

■

Practicing environmental stewardship: this includes practices considered more sustainable than those of industry peers, reduction in environmental impact when compared to previous periods, and/or the use of more efficient and cleaner energy sources.

Consistent with the Adviser’s values, the Fund may invest in domestic and/or foreign fixed-income securities, such as notes (including standalone notes not rated by any agency), to help fund community development institutions and projects aimed at serving human needs such as those of low-to-moderate income families and communities.

Securities may be sold when the Adviser believes that they no longer represent relatively attractive investment opportunities or when the Adviser believes the underlying company is no longer consistent with the Adviser’s faith-based values.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity and equity-related securities of companies in the healthcare and life sciences sectors, including common stock, options, preferred stock and convertible debt. Healthcare and life sciences companies include those companies that derive or are expected to derive 50% or more of their revenue from healthcare and life science products and services including, but not limited to, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, life science tools, medical devices, healthcare information technology, healthcare services, synthetic biology, agricultural and environmental management, and pharmaceutical manufacturing products and services. These companies may include private and other companies whose securities may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid (“Illiquid Investments”), which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in Illiquid Investments. These companies may include development stage companies. The Fund may invest without limitation in securities of companies domiciled outside the United States either directly or through American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any market capitalization.

The Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”) utilizes a fundamental “bottom-up” analysis to evaluate investments for inclusion in the Fund’s portfolio. The Adviser seeks to invest in attractively valued securities that, in its opinion, represent above-average long-term investment opportunities or have significant near-term appreciation potential and that are capable of serving well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” The Adviser favors investments that it believes will have relatively low correlation to the overall market. The valuation of these investments may respond dramatically to clinical trial outcomes or regulatory decisions, providing atypical upside or downside volatility.

The Adviser uses options strategies, such as calls, covered calls, and puts on individual securities, as well as options on securities indices, to enhance returns, generate income, to reduce portfolio volatility, or to reduce downside risk when the Adviser believes adverse market, political or other conditions are likely. The Adviser may also utilize a combination of puts and/or calls on the same security (sometimes referred to as “straddles,” “collars” or “spreads”) or utilize puts and calls on related securities. The Adviser only makes use of these derivative strategies where the derivatives’ underlying security is within or related to the sectors in which the Fund normally invests.

The Fund concentrates investments in drug-related industries by investing, under normal circumstances, over 25% of its assets in drug-related industries. This group of industries includes pharmaceutical, biotech and similar companies that primarily develop, produce or distribute drugs, medicines, diagnostic chemicals and biological products used to diagnose, prevent or treat diseases or maintain health.

The Fund has significant flexibility to achieve its investment objective by primarily investing in a broad universe of income-producing securities. These securities include debt and equity securities of companies in the U.S. and other markets around the world. The Fund’s investments in foreign securities may be made, without limitation, directly or through American Depository Receipts (“ADRs”).

The Fund uses a balanced strategy making approximately equal allocations between equity income and fixed income with a “bottom-up” quality investing and secular theme focus that seeks to achieve consistent returns and lower volatility than the markets. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve this goal. The Fund’s balanced strategy means that equity investments do not typically represent more than 55% of the Fund’s portfolio. The Fund’s balanced strategy also means that the Fund invests at least 25% of its assets in equity securities and at least 25% of its assets in fixed income securities. The Fund is focused on identifying and investing in companies capable of increasing profitability, growth, and income distribution by serving well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” The Fund has broad discretion to invest in securities in the pursuit of the Fund’s objective. These securities may include, but are not limited to, common stocks, yieldcos (dividend growth-oriented public companies created by a parent company, which bundles renewable and/or conventional long-term contracted operating assets in order to generate cash flow), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), preferred stocks, corporate bonds, government agency bonds, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities (including auto loans and leases, equipment loans and leases, and credit cards), convertible securities and options. The Fund may invest in a particular type of security without limitation but limits its investment in a particular industry to less than 25% of the Fund’s net assets. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization. The Fund may invest in bonds of any maturity and, under normal market conditions, the bonds held in the Fund’s portfolio have an average duration of between two and eight years. The Fund may invest in bonds of any credit quality including, without limitation, non-investment grade bonds rated below Baa3 by Moody’s or below BBB- by S&P (also known as “junk” bonds). The Fund may invest in private and other issuers whose securities may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid (“Illiquid Investments”), which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in Illiquid Investments.

The Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”), utilizes a fundamental “bottom-up” analysis to evaluate investments for inclusion in the Fund’s portfolio. The Adviser seeks to invest in attractively valued securities that, in its opinion, represent above-average long-term investment opportunities. The Adviser favors investments that it believes will have relatively lower correlation or volatility to the overall market. The Adviser seeks to invest in securities that, in its opinion, are attractively valued, provide attractive current income, provide income appreciation potential, provide capital appreciation potential, and/or help to reduce overall portfolio volatility.

The Adviser may use options, such as puts or calls on individual securities, as well as options on securities indices, to enhance returns, generate income, to reduce portfolio volatility, or to reduce downside risk when the Adviser believes prudent. To enhance income, the Adviser has the ability to sell call options on stocks held in the portfolio (covered call writing). In exchange for the option premium received, the Fund gives up potential upside in the underlying stock. The Adviser also has the ability to write put options on stocks deemed to be attractive purchases at lower price levels. The Adviser may also utilize a combination of puts and/or calls regarding the same security (sometimes referred to as “straddles,” “collars” or “spreads”) or utilize puts and calls on related securities.

The Adviser has retained Boyd Watterson Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) to manage some of the Fund’s assets allocated for investment in the fixed income portion of the Fund’s portfolio. In selecting securities for investment by the Fund, the Sub-Adviser employs a top-down approach to determine how to structure the bond allocation taking into consideration duration, maturity, and sector allocation. The Sub-Adviser then initiates a process of security analysis based on several factors including, but not limited to, economic trends, industry assessments and issuer specific credit fundamentals.

Faith-Based Screening. The Adviser uses its proprietary screening methodology to analyze all potential investments for the company’s ability to operate with integrity and to create value for customers, employees, and other stakeholders by reflecting the values described below. The values assessed in the Adviser’s screening process are inspired by the Christian faith and rooted in a biblical worldview.

Securities may be sold when the Adviser or Sub-Adviser believes that they no longer represent relatively attractive investment opportunities or when the Adviser believes the underlying company is no longer consistent with the Adviser’s faith-based values.

Distribution Policy. The Fund’s distribution policy is to make approximately twelve distributions to shareholders per calendar year. The frequency of distributions is based on the availability of distributable income and the investment needs of the Fund. The level of periodic distributions (including any return of capital) is not fixed and is not designed to generate, and is not expected to result in, distributions that equal a fixed percentage of the Fund’s current net asset value per share. Shareholders receiving periodic payments from the Fund may be under the impression that they are receiving net profits. However, all or a portion of a distribution may consist of a return of capital. Shareholders should not assume that the Fund’s distribution rate or the source of a distribution from the Fund is net profit.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in securities with dividend growth attributes, which may include historical dividend growth characteristics and/or strong free cash flow generation and healthy balance sheet characteristics. The Fund has broad discretion to invest in securities selected by the Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”), in the pursuit of the Fund’s objectives and to maintain flexibility for investing in domestic and foreign securities across all market capitalizations and economic sectors without limitation. The Fund’s investments in foreign securities may be made either directly or through American Depository Receipts (“ADRs”). The Fund is focused on identifying and investing in companies capable of increasing profitability, growth, and dividend growth by serving well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly.

Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets (plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes) is invested in the securities of companies that the Adviser believes have the ability to increase dividends over the long term. Although the Fund expects to invest primarily in dividend paying common stocks (including ADRs), the Fund may invest in other securities to pursue the Fund’s investment objectives. These other securities include yieldcos (e.g., dividend growth-oriented public companies created by a parent company, which bundles renewable and/or conventional long-term contracted operating assets in order to generate cash flow), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), convertible securities, and preferred stocks.

The Fund may invest in a particular type of security without limitation but limits its investment in a particular industry to less than 25% of the Fund’s net assets.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

The Fund seeks to achieve its objective through investments in income-producing securities issued by entities deemed by the Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”) to be serving well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” Income-producing securities that the Fund may invest in include, but are not limited to, corporate bonds; preferred stocks, convertible debt and other hybrid securities that have debt and equity characteristics but are predominantly debt in nature; agency and non-agency residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities; asset-backed securities (including auto loans and leases, equipment loans and leases, and credit cards); green bonds (i.e., bonds that allow issuers to use proceeds for environmental projects); social bonds (i.e., bonds that allow issuers to use proceeds for social projects); sustainable bonds (i.e. bonds that are a combination of green and social bonds); government agency debt instruments; and municipal bonds (collectively, “Bonds”). Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in Bonds.

Fixed income investments may be of any maturity, but the Fund’s weighted average effective portfolio duration will not exceed five years. Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income instrument that is used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. Effective duration is a measure of the Fund’s portfolio duration adjusted for the anticipated effect of interest rate changes on bond and mortgage pre-payment rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. The more sensitive a security is to changes in interest rates, the higher its volatility risk. For example, if a bond has a duration of 5 years, a 1% rise in rates would result in approximately a 5% decline in the bond’s price. If a bond has a duration of 10 years, a 1% rise in interest rates would result in approximately a 10% decline in the bond’s price. The Fund may invest in bonds of any credit quality, including, without limitation, non-investment grade bonds rated below Baa3 by Moody’s or below BBB- by S&P (also known as “junk” bonds) but expects to invest predominantly in investment grade securities. With respect to both fixed income and equity securities, the Fund may invest in the securities of foreign entities and may invest in companies of any market capitalization. The Fund may invest in private and other issuers whose securities may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid (“Illiquid Investments”), which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in Illiquid Investments.

Consistent with the Adviser’s values, the Fund may invest in domestic and/or foreign fixed-income securities, such as notes (including standalone notes not rated by any agency), to help fund community development institutions and projects aimed at serving human needs such as those of low-to-moderate income families and communities.

Investments that meet the Adviser’s faith-based criteria are analyzed by the Fund’s investment sub-adviser, Boyd Watterson Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) for possible inclusion in the Fund’s portfolio. The Sub-Adviser builds the Fund’s portfolio based on macroeconomic trends and forecasts in economic growth, inflation expectations, and monetary policy. The Sub-Adviser strives to generate excess return through sector allocation (adjusting allocations across major sectors of the bond market based on assessments of fundamentals and current versus historical valuation relationships), duration management (holding securities to optimize interest rates), yield curve positioning (adjusting holdings to capitalize on expected changes in the Treasury yield curve), and security selection. The ability of the Sub-Adviser to deliver returns varies according to the economic and market environment. The Sub-Adviser’s methods are intended to accumulate value over a full market cycle.

Securities may be sold when the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser believes that they no longer represent relatively attractive investment opportunities or when the Adviser believes the underlying company’s practices are no longer consistent with the Adviser’s faith-based values.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in companies that the Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”) believes are participating in and benefitting from technologies, innovations, technology themes, or technology trends. The types of companies represented in the Fund’s portfolio include, but are not limited to, companies falling within the information technology, internet media and services, healthcare technology, healthcare devices, or financial technology (i.e., Fintech) industries. The Fund invests primarily in companies that the Adviser believes are participating in and benefitting from technologies, innovations, themes, or trends that have long-term exponential characteristics and that serve well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” The term “exponential” means the potential for accelerated advancements in technologies that can positively impact capabilities and development cycles of a company’s products and services. Not every company in the Fund’s portfolio will experience exponential growth, and the Fund is not expected to deliver exponential returns.

The Adviser utilizes a fundamental “bottom-up” analysis and quantitative screening to find and evaluate investments for the Fund’s portfolio. The Adviser seeks attractively valued securities that, in its opinion, represent above-average long-term investment opportunities or have significant near-term appreciation potential. The Adviser’s investment opportunity screening considers strong organic revenue growth, growing market share, superior unit economics (e.g., considering metrics and lifecycles unique to particular businesses), defensible competitive advantages and quality management teams. Valuation is an integral part of the investment process and purchase decisions are based on the potential reward relative to risk of each security which, in turn, is partly based on the Adviser’s earnings calculations.

The Fund gains exposure to technology companies primarily through investing in equity securities including common stock, options, and preferred stock. The Fund may invest in private and other issuers whose securities may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid, which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in these illiquid investments. These companies include development stage companies that have not commenced business operations or have not generated significant revenue. The Fund invests without limitation in securities of companies domiciled outside the United States either directly or through American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any market capitalization.

The Adviser uses options strategies to enhance returns, generate income, reduce portfolio volatility, or reduce downside risk when the Adviser believes adverse market, political or other conditions are likely. The Adviser may also utilize a combination of puts and/or calls regarding the same security or puts and calls on related securities.

The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), which means that it is not limited by the 1940 Act with regard to the portion of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer. The Fund concentrates investments in the software, technology hardware and equipment, semiconductor, and communications group of industries because, under normal circumstances, it invests over 25% of its net assets in companies in this group of industries.

Faith-Based Screening. The Adviser uses its proprietary screening methodology to analyze all potential investments for the company’s ability to operate with integrity and to create value for customers, employees, and other stakeholders by reflecting the values described below. The values assessed in the Adviser’s screening process are inspired by the Christian faith and rooted in a biblical worldview. While few companies may reach these ideals in every area of their business, these principles articulate the Adviser’s highest expectations for the companies in which the Fund invests. The Adviser uses its screening process in connection with other fundamental research processes to establish the Fund’s eligible investment universe. Securities are generally ineligible within the Fund’s portfolio unless the Adviser believes that the faith-based screens are met. If the Adviser’s research identifies events and/or business changes suggesting that a portfolio company no longer meets the faith-based criteria, the Fund may hold the company’s securities while the Adviser performs additional research, including possible direct engagement with the company to assess practices. The Adviser’s faith-based screening process for potential investments does not apply relative weights between values-based factors and financial factors. There is no guarantee that the Adviser will be able to successfully screen out all companies that are inconsistent with the following principles which help to guide the Adviser’s research and investment framework. Specifically, the Adviser seeks to invest in companies that reflect the following values:

■

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

The Fund seeks to achieve its objective through investments in income-producing securities issued by entities deemed by the Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”), to be serving well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” Income producing securities that the Fund may invest in include, but are not limited to, corporate bonds; preferred stocks, convertible debt and other hybrid securities that have debt and equity characteristics but are predominantly debt in nature; agency and non-agency residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities; asset-backed securities (including auto loans and leases, equipment loans and leases, and credit cards); green bonds (i.e., bonds that allow issuers to use proceeds for environmental projects); social bonds (i.e., bonds that allow issuers to use proceeds for social projects); sustainable bonds (i.e., bonds that are a combination of green and social bonds); government agency debt instruments; and municipal bonds (collectively, “Bonds”). Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in Bonds.

The Fund may invest in Bonds of any maturity and, under normal market conditions, the Bonds held by the Fund have a weighted average duration between three years and nine years. Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income instrument that is used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. Effective duration is a measure of the Fund’s portfolio duration adjusted for the anticipated effect of interest rate changes on bond and mortgage pre-payment rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. The more sensitive a security is to changes in interest rates, the higher its volatility risk. For example, if a bond has a duration of 5 years, a 1% rise in rates would result in approximately a 5% decline in the bond’s price. If a bond has a duration of 10 years, a 1% rise in interest rates would result in approximately a 10% decline in the bond’s price. The Fund invests predominantly in investment grade securities. With respect to both fixed income and equity securities, the Fund may invest in the securities of foreign entities and may invest in companies of any market capitalization. The Fund may invest in private and other issuers whose securities may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid (“Illiquid Investments”), which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in Illiquid Investments.

Faith-Based Screening. The Adviser uses its proprietary screening methodology to analyze all potential investments for the company’s ability to operate with integrity and to create value for customers, employees, and other stakeholders by reflecting the values described below. The values assessed in the Adviser’s screening process are inspired by the Christian faith and rooted in a biblical worldview. While few companies may reach these ideals in every area of their business, these principles articulate the Adviser’s highest expectations for the companies in which the Fund invests. The Adviser uses its screening process in connection with other fundamental research processes to establish the Fund’s eligible investment universe. Securities are generally ineligible within the Fund’s portfolio unless the Adviser believes that the faith-based screens are met. If the Adviser’s research identifies events and/or business changes suggesting that a portfolio company no longer meets the faith-based criteria, the Fund may hold the company’s securities while the Adviser performs additional research, including possible direct engagement with the company to assess practices. The Adviser’s faith-based screening process for potential investments does not apply relative weights between values-based factors and financial factors. There is no guarantee that the Adviser will be able to successfully screen out all companies that are inconsistent with the following principles which help to guide the Adviser’s research and investment framework. Specifically, the Adviser seeks to invest in companies that reflect the following values:

■

Respecting the value and freedom of all people: this includes the right to life at all stages and freedom from addictive behaviors caused by gambling, pornography, tobacco, and alcohol.

■

Demonstrating a concern for justice and peace: this includes fair and ethical relationships with customers, suppliers, and business partners and avoiding products and services that promote weapons production and proliferation.

■

Promoting family and community: this includes protecting children from violent forms of entertainment and serving low-income communities.

■

Exhibiting responsible management practices: this includes fair dealing with employees, communities, competitors, suppliers, and customers as demonstrated by a company’s record regarding litigation, regulatory actions against the company, and its record of providing products and services that improve the lives of people.

■

Practicing environmental stewardship: this includes practices considered more sustainable than those of industry peers, reduction in environmental impact when compared to previous periods, and/or the use of more efficient and cleaner energy sources.

Consistent with the Adviser’s values, the Fund may invest in domestic and/or foreign fixed-income securities, such as notes (including standalone notes not rated by any agency), to help fund community development institutions and projects aimed at serving human needs such as those of low-to-moderate income families and communities.

Investments that meet the Adviser’s faith-based criteria are analyzed by the Fund’s investment sub-adviser, Boyd Watterson Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) for possible inclusion in the Fund’s portfolio. The Sub-Adviser builds the Fund’s portfolio based on macroeconomic trends and forecasts in economic growth, inflation expectations, and monetary policy. The Sub-Adviser strives to generate excess return through sector allocation (adjusting allocations across major sectors of the bond market based on assessments of fundamentals and current versus historical valuation relationships), duration management (holding securities to optimize interest rates), yield curve positioning (adjusting holdings to capitalize on expected changes in the Treasury yield curve), and security selection. The ability of the Sub-Adviser to deliver returns varies according to the economic and market environment. The Sub-Adviser’s methods are intended to accumulate value over a full market cycle.

Securities may be sold when the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser believes that they no longer represent relatively attractive investment opportunities or when the Adviser believes the underlying company’s practices are no longer consistent with the Adviser’s faith-based values.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by primarily investing in a broad range of equity securities of large capitalization companies. The Fund’s investment adviser, Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide” or the “Adviser”), utilizes a fundamental “bottom-up” analysis to evaluate investments for inclusion in the Fund’s portfolio and seeks to identify and invest the Fund’s assets in companies capable of sustaining and/or increasing profitability and/or revenue growth and that serve well the needs of customers, employees, suppliers, communities, the environment, and society broadly using the Adviser’s faith-based screening criteria as more fully described below under “Faith-Based Screening.” Equity securities that the Fund may invest in include, but are not limited to, common stocks (including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”)), yieldcos, (e.g., dividend growth-oriented public companies created by a parent company, which bundles renewable and/or conventional long-term contracted operating assets, such as solar and wind power, in order to generate cash flow), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), convertible bonds, preferred stocks, and master limited partnerships (“MLPs”). Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in large capitalization companies. The Fund considers its investment in derivatives, based on their marked to market value, when determining its compliance with this test. Large capitalization companies are defined as companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase in the range of those market capitalizations of companies included in the S&P 500 Index (the “Index”). The capitalization range of the Index is between $6.5 billion and $4.6 trillion as of September 30, 2025. The size of the companies included in the Index will change with market conditions.

The Fund may invest without limitation in securities in companies domiciled outside the United States either directly or through ADRs. The Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in the stock of companies in one or more sectors of the economy, such as the technology, industrial, consumer discretionary and healthcare sectors. The Fund concentrates investments in the software and semiconductor industries by investing, under normal circumstances, over 25% of its assets in companies in this group of industries.

The Fund may invest in private companies and other companies whose shares may have legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are otherwise illiquid (“Illiquid Investments”), which can impact their valuation. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets in Illiquid Investments. The Adviser may use options strategies, such as puts and covered calls on individual securities, as well as options on securities indices, to generate income, to reduce portfolio volatility, or to reduce downside risk when the Adviser believes adverse market, political or other conditions are likely. The Adviser may also utilize a combination of puts and/or calls on the same security (sometimes referred to as “straddles,” “collars” or “spreads”) or utilize puts and calls on related securities.
