OVERVIEW

The Steward Values Enhanced Large Cap Fund will, under normal circumstances, invest at least 80% of its assets in the securities of large-cap companies included in its benchmark index that pass the fund’s values-based screens. Large-cap companies are defined by the market capitalization range of the fund’s benchmark index, the S&P 500 Index. The S&P 500 Index is a widely recognized broad-based large-cap index, and the companies included in the S&P 500 Index represent a broad spectrum of the U.S. economy and are generally U.S. issuers. Fund investments may also include other investment companies and real estate investment trusts.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Before investing in a mutual fund, you should read the fund’s prospectus carefully and consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. The prospectus contains this and other information about the fund.

    Resources

    The Steward Funds are distributed by Crossmark Distributors, Inc., member FINRA. Crossmark Distributors is an affiliate of Crossmark Global Investments, Inc., the Steward Funds’ investment adviser. Crossmark Global Investments is an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission that provides discretionary investment management services to mutual funds, institutions, and individual clients.

    The fund may not achieve its objective if the managers’ expectations regarding particular securities or markets are not met. Equity investments generally involve two principal risks—market risk and selection risk. The value of equity securities will rise and fall in response to general market and/or economic conditions (equity market risk). The value of any individual equity security will rise and fall in response to the market’s perception of the issuer’s revenues, earnings, balance sheet, credit worthiness, business plan, and overall perception of the viability of the issuer’s business (selection risk).

    The fund’s values-based screening policies exclude certain securities issuers from the universe of otherwise available investments. As a result, the fund may not achieve the same level of performance as it otherwise would have in the absence of the screening process. If the fund has invested in a company that is later discovered to be in violation of one or more screening criteria and liquidation of an investment in that company is required, selling the securities at issue could result in a loss to the fund. Further, the fund’s values-based screening policies may prevent the fund from participating in an otherwise suitable investment opportunity.

    The S&P 500 Index is a large capitalization weighted index of 500 U.S. companies generally considered to be representative of stock market activity. Please note that indexes do not take into account any fees and expenses of investing in the individual securities that they track, and investors cannot invest directly in any index.
