Legg Mason ClearBridge Fundamental All Cap Value Fund

Our goal1

Long-term capital growth and, secondarily, current income

What we invest in

The Fund invests primarily in large, well-known companies that the Fund's managers believe are temporarily out of favor and undervalued by the market. The Fund also invests in small- and mid-sized companies when the managers believe these companies offer more attractive value opportunities. Secondary consideration is given to a company's dividend record and the potential for an improved dividend return.

Our approach

The Fund's managers use a two-step stock-selection process. First, the portfolio managers use proprietary models and fundamental research to identify companies whose stocks are undervalued in light of their business fundamentals, the outlook for their particular industries, as well as overall economic trends. Second, the managers look for a positive catalyst in a company's near-term outlook they feel could accelerate earnings or improve the value of the company's assets.

What should I know before investing?

Equity securities are subject to price fluctuation and possible loss of principal. International investments are subject to special risks including currency fluctuations, as well as social, economic and political uncertainties, which could increase volatility. These risks are magnified in emerging markets. Small- and mid-cap stocks involve greater risks and volatility than large-cap stocks. Short selling is a speculative strategy. Unlike the possible loss on a security that is purchased, there is no limit on the amount of loss on an appreciating security that is sold short. Derivatives, such as options and futures, can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance. The manager's investment style may become out of favor and/or the manager's selection process may prove incorrect, which may have a negative impact on the Fund's performance

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Each fund is ranked based on average annual total returns assuming reinvestment of dividends, capital gains and distributions at net asset value and the deduction of all fund expenses. Each fund is ranked within a universe of funds similar in portfolio characteristics and capitalizations as defined by Lipper Inc. Rankings do not include the effect of the Fund's sales charges. Results would have been less favorable had sales charges been included. A high Lipper ranking does not necessarily imply that a fund achieved positive results for the period. Lipper Inc. is a nationally recognized organization that ranks the performance of mutual funds.

Exchange Privileges: Many mutual funds that charge front-end sales loads offer a discount on the sales loads for a large investment. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales load are commonly referred to as "breakpoints." Typically, you may be entitled to a lower front-end load based on a single transaction if the dollar amount exceeds one or more breakpoints. In addition, some funds offer discounts based on purchases made over time, under a right of accumulation or letter of intent. The criteria for breakpoints for each mutual fund are set out in the fund prospectus and statements of additional information. FINRA issued an Investor Alert to ensure that investors better understand how breakpoints work and what you may need to know to make sure that, should you purchase shares eligible for breakpoints, you are charged the lowest possible front-end sales charge. Visit the FINRA Website to read the FINRA Investor Alert.
