[2] Glenmede Investment Management LP (the “Advisor”) has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent that the Portfolio’s annual total operating expenses exceed 0.85% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets (excluding Acquired Fund fees and expenses, brokerage commissions, extraordinary items, interest and taxes). The Advisor has contractually agreed to these waivers and/or reimbursements until at least February 28, 2021 and may discontinue this arrangement at any time thereafter. This contractual fee waiver agreement may not be terminated before February 28, 2021 without the approval of The Glenmede Fund, Inc.’s (the “Fund”) Board of Directors (the “Board”).
Example
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio 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 Portfolio’s operating expenses remain the same, taking into account the fee waiver in the first year of each period. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Portfolio’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio’s portfolio turnover rate was 39% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
The Portfolio invests, under normal market circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its net assets (including borrowings for investment purposes) in income-producing equity securities, such as common and preferred stocks. Preferred stock is a class of stock having a preference over common stock as to the payment of dividends and the recovery of investment should the issuer be liquidated. The Portfolio primarily invests in U.S. large cap companies with market capitalizations, at the time of purchase, within the market capitalization range of any stock in either the Russell 1000® Index or the S&P 900® Index, and that have a dividend yield above the S&P 500® Index at the time of purchase. Additional consideration is given to the expected future growth rate of such dividends. As of its last rebalancing on May 10, 2019, the market capitalization of the companies in the Russell 1000® Index was between approximately $2.4 billion and $974.2 billion. As of January 31, 2020, the market capitalization of the companies in the S&P 900® Index was between approximately $1.0 billion and $1.38 trillion.

The Advisor uses a combination of quantitative and fundamental research to select securities. The Advisor uses a quantitative proprietary multi-factor computer model which identifies a list of attractive securities using such variables as return of capital, dividend growth, payout ratio and earnings trends, and then applies fundamental research to select which securities to buy and sell for this Portfolio.
Principal Investment Risks
All investments carry a certain amount of risk and the Portfolio cannot guarantee that it will achieve its investment objective. In addition, the strategies that the Advisor uses may fail to produce the intended result. Each risk summarized below is considered a “principal risk” of investing in the Portfolio, regardless of the order in which it appears. An investment in the Portfolio is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Therefore, you could lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

The Portfolio may be appropriate for you if you are investing for goals several years away, and are comfortable with stock market risks. The Portfolio would not be appropriate for you if you are investing for short-term goals.
Market Risk: Stocks may decline over short or even extended periods of time. Equity markets tend to be cyclical: there are times when stock prices generally increase, and other times when they generally decrease. In addition, the Portfolio is subject to the additional risk that the particular types of stocks held by the Portfolio will underperform other types of securities. Market risks, including political, regulatory, market, economic and social developments, and developments that impact specific economic sectors, industries or segments of the market, can affect the value of the Portfolio’s investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies (including pandemics and epidemics), terrorism and other global unforeseeable events may lead to instability in world economies and markets, may lead to market volatility, and may have adverse long-term effects. The Portfolio cannot predict the effects of such unforeseeable events in the future on the economy, the markets or the Portfolio’s investments.

Dividend Paying Security Risk: Income provided by the Portfolio may be affected by changes in the dividend policies of the companies in which the Portfolio invests and the capital resources available for such payments at such companies. Issuers that have paid regular dividends or distributions to shareholders may not continue to do so at the same level or at all in the future. Dividend paying securities can fall out of favor with the market, causing the Portfolio during such periods to underperform funds that do not focus on dividends.

Preferred Stock Risk: Preferred stock generally does not exhibit as great a potential for appreciation as common stock, although it ranks above common stock in its claim on income for dividend payments. In the event an issuer is liquidated or declares bankruptcy, the claims of owners of bonds take precedence over the claims of preferred and common stock owners. Preferred stock may also be subject to optional or mandatory redemption provisions.
Performance Information
The bar chart and table below provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio. The bar chart will show how the performance of the Portfolio has varied from year to year. The table shows how the Portfolio’s average annual total returns for one year and since inception compare to those of selected market indices. The Portfolio’s past performance, before and after-taxes, does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future. Performance reflects expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers in effect. If such expense reimbursements or fee waivers were not in place, the Portfolio’s performance would be reduced. Updated performance information is available by visiting www.glenmedeim.com or by calling 1-800-442-8299.
