EXAMPLE
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example uses the same assumptions as other mutual fund prospectuses: a $10,000 initial investment for the time periods indicated, 5% annual total return, constant operating expenses (except for fee waivers in the first year), and sale of all shares at the end of each time period. Although your actual expenses may be different, based on these assumptions your cost will be:

Class I 26 91 164 376
Class F 41 161 292 675
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 Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 32.34% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRIMARY INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund’s strategy seeks to provide a diversified portfolio of investment grade bonds with aggregate risk, return and income characteristics that are similar to those of 3 to 5 year bonds . Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any amounts for borrowing, in a broad range of investment grade fixed income securities, including bonds, notes, domestic and foreign corporate and government securities, government agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities, municipal securities and short-term obligations. The Fund does not limit itself to securities of a particular maturity range but will normally seek to maintain a dollar weighted average duration between 3 and 5 years. Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income security that is used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. For example, the value of a portfolio of fixed income securities with an average duration of one year would generally be expected to decline by approximately 1% if interest rates rose by one percentage point.
PRINCIPAL RISKS
As with any mutual fund investment, the Fund’s returns may vary and you could lose money.
Interest Rate Risk — Prices of fixed-income securities rise and fall in response to changes in the interest rate paid by similar securities. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of fixed-income securities fall. However, market factors, such as the demand for particular fixed-income securities, may cause the price of certain fixed-income securities to fall while the prices of other securities rise or remain unchanged. Interest rate changes have a greater effect on the price of fixed-income securities with longer maturities. A potential rise in interest rates may result in periods of volatility and increased redemptions.
Credit Risk — The issuer of the fixed income security (including some Government Agencies) may not be able to make interest and principal payments when due, resulting in losses to the Fund. In addition, the credit quality of securities held by the Fund may be lowered if an issuer’s financial condition changes.
Prepayment Risk — The value of the mortgage securities held by the Fund may go down as a result of changes in prepayment rates on the underlying mortgages.
Specific Maturity Risk —  The specific maturities in which the Fund invests may fall in value more than other maturities. Generally, a portfolio of bonds with a longer effective maturity will fluctuate more than a portfolio of bonds with a shorter effective maturity.
Management Risk — The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular securities in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and there is no guarantee that the Adviser’s judgment will produce the desired results.
Market and Geopolitical Risk — The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on both the U.S. and global financial markets. The current novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic and the aggressive responses taken by many governments, including closing borders, restricting international and domestic travel, and the imposition of prolonged quarantines or similar restrictions, as well as the forced or voluntary closure of, or operational changes to, many retail and other businesses, has had negative impacts, and in many cases severe negative impacts,
on markets worldwide. It is not known how long such impacts, or any future impacts of other significant events described above, will or would last, but there could be a prolonged period of global economic slowdown, which may impact your Fund investment.
Mortgage-Backed Securities Risks — Mortgage-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of mortgages. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to “prepayment risk” and “extension risk.” Prepayment risk is the risk that, when interest rates fall, certain types of obligations will be paid off by the obligor more quickly than originally anticipated and the Fund may have to invest the proceeds in securities with lower yields. Extension risk is the risk that, when interest rates rise, certain obligations will be paid off by the obligor more slowly than anticipated causing the value of these securities to fall. Small movements in interest rates (both increases and decreases) may quickly and significantly reduce the value of certain mortgage-backed securities. These securities also are subject to risk of default on the underlying mortgage, particularly during periods of economic downturn.
Asset-Backed Securities Risk — Asset-backed securities are subject to credit risk because underlying loan borrowers may default. Additionally, these securities are subject to prepayment risk because the underlying loans held by the issuers may be paid off prior to maturity. The value of these securities may go down as a result of changes in prepayment rates on the underlying loans. During periods of declining interest rates, prepayment rates usually increase and the Fund may have to reinvest prepayment proceeds at a lower interest rate.
Municipal Securities Risk — Municipal securities are subject to the risk that legislative changes and local and business developments may adversely affect the yield or value of the Fund’s investments in such securities. Municipal general obligation debt issuers may not be able to levy or collect enough taxes as necessary to make full and timely payments to investors. Municipal revenue obligation debt issuers may experience shortfalls in revenues, such as sales taxes, fuel taxes, or hotel occupancy taxes, generated by the particular project being financed. The Fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments if it invests a substantial portion of its assets in bonds of similar projects (such as those relating to education, health care, housing, transportation, and utilities), industrial development bonds, or in bonds from issuers in a particular state.
Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities may be subject to special risks such as changes in restrictions on foreign currency transactions and rates of exchange, and changes in the administration or economic and monetary policies of foreign governments.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
The chart and table below show the variability of the Fund’s returns, which is one indicator of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the Fund’s Class I returns from year to year for the last 10 years. Although Class F shares would have similar annual returns to Class I shares, the returns for Class F shares would be different from Class I shares because they have different expenses. The table shows how the Fund’s average annual total returns over time compare to those of a broad-based securities market index. Of course, the Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of its future performance. Updated performance information is available at no cost by visiting www.johnsonmutualfunds.com or by calling 1-800-541-0170.
