EXAMPLE
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in Investor
Class shares of this Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in Investor Class shares of the
Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the
end of those periods. The Example also assumes that you reinvest all dividends
and distributions, that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the
Fund's operating expenses remain the same.
Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on the assumptions, your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover
The Fund 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 Fund
shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in
Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance.
During the most recent fiscal year, the predecessor to the Fund, the FBR Focus
Fund, a series of The FBR Funds (the "Predecessor Focus Fund"), had a portfolio
turnover rate of 13% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategy
Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily in securities of
companies traded in domestic markets. Investments will consist primarily of
common stocks, but may include preferred stocks, warrants, options, equity-like
instruments and debt instruments. The Portfolio Managers invest in the stocks of
companies of any size without regard to market capitalization.

The Portfolio Managers implement the Fund's strategy by focusing on companies
whose valuations in the market are modest and that earn higher than average returns
on shareholders' equity, are managed by individuals who have a history of treating
public shareholders like partners and have ample opportunity to reinvest excess
profits at above average rates. Once a potential investment is identified, the
Portfolio Managers attempt to purchase shares at a price they believe represents a
discount to a conservative estimate of the company's intrinsic value.

The Fund may from time to time hold a significant portion of its portfolio in
cash or cash equivalent instruments. If market conditions reduce the availability
of securities with acceptable valuations, the Fund may, for extended periods, hold
larger than usual cash reserves until securities with acceptable valuations become
available. During declining markets, holding larger than usual cash reserves may
allow the Fund to purchase securities at a discount.
Principal Risks
As with any security, there are market and investment risks associated with an
investment in the Fund. The value of an investment will fluctuate over time and
it is possible to lose money. The principal risks of investing in the Fund
include the following:

Market Risk: The market value of a security may move up or down, and these
fluctuations may cause a security to be worth more or less than the price
originally paid for it. Market risk may affect a single company, industry,
sector of the economy or the market as a whole.

Equity Investments: Because the Fund invests in equity securities, fluctuations
in the stock market in general, as well as in the value of particular equity
securities held by the Fund, can affect the Fund's performance. The value of
equity securities will fluctuate due to many factors, including the past and
predicted earnings of the issuer, the quality of the issuer's management,
general market conditions, forecasts for the issuer's industry and the value
of the issuer's assets.

Temporary Defensive Positions: The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary
defensive positions in response to adverse market, economic, political or other
conditions. To the extent the assets of the Fund are invested in temporary
defensive positions, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective. For
temporary defensive purposes, the Fund may invest in cash and/or short-term
obligations.

Mid-Cap and Small-Cap Investments: The Fund invests in small and medium sized
companies, which may have more limited liquidity and greater price volatility
than larger, more established companies. Small companies may have limited
product lines, markets or financial resources and their management may be
dependent on a limited number of key individuals.

Non-Diversification: The Fund is non-diversified, meaning it is likely to invest
in fewer stocks than a diversified fund. The Fund may be more volatile because
each stock in which it invests will have greater impact on the Fund's
performance.
Performance Information
The Fund is the successor to the Predecessor Focus Fund pursuant to a
reorganization that took place after the close of business on October 26, 2012.
The performance information provided for the periods on or prior to October 26,
2012 is historical information for the Predecessor Focus Fund's Investor Class
shares. The Predecessor Focus Fund was managed by FBR Fund Advisers, Inc.
and had the same investment objective and substantially similar investment strategy
as the Fund.

The following performance information provides some indication of the risks of
investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year
and how the Fund's average annual returns compare with those of the Russell 2000
Index, a broad measure of market performance. For additional information on this
index, please see "Index Descriptions" in the Prospectus. The Fund's past
performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of future
performance. Prior to January 1, 2008, the Fund operated pursuant to a different
investment strategy. Performance may be higher or lower in the future. Updated
performance information is available on the Fund's website
(http://www.hennessyfunds.com).

The after-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual
federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and
local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and
may differ from those shown, and the after-tax returns shown are not relevant to
investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as
401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. The Fund's return after taxes on
distributions and sales of Fund shares may be higher than its return before
taxes and after taxes on distributions because it may include a tax benefit
resulting from the capital losses that would have resulted.
