Trillium ESG Small/
Mid Cap FUnd
The Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund invests in small and mid cap stocks that are well-diversified across economic sectors and meet Trillium’s sustainability criteria.
The Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund integrates Trillium’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria and financial analysis process to identify small and mid-sized companies positioned to deliver long-term risk adjusted performance.
Investment Process
Trillium seeks to identify individual companies that satisfy Trillium’s proprietary fundamental and ESG criteria analysis and screening process. In conducting fundamental research, Trillium combines fundamental investment considerations with proprietary ESG criteria analysis and screening. Trillium believes that this integrated approach provides insight into how a company behaves commercially and how it deals with existing and emerging ESG risks and opportunities.

Performance data quoted represents past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results. The Russell 2500 is provided as supplemental information. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Prior to October 30, 2023, the Fund imposed a redemption fee of 2.00% on shares held for 90 days or less. Performance data does not reflect the redemption fee. If it had, returns would be reduced.
* Effective October 30, 2023, Perpetual Americas Funds Services, as investment adviser to the Fund, has contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses to the extent that the Gross Expense Ratio (excluding brokerage costs, interest, taxes, dividends, litigation and indemnification expenses, expenses associated with investments in underlying investment companies, and extraordinary expenses) exceeds 0.97% for Institutional Shares until January 28, 2025.
1 Effective October 30, 2023, the Fund’s primary benchmark was changed to the Russell 2500® Index. Trillium believes that the Russell 2500® Index reflects the Fund’s investment portfolio of small and mid-sized companies and is more widely used in the marketplace, as well as more familiar to investors, than the S&P 1000® Index.

Investment Process
Fundamental equity analysts, who divide coverage by sector, are responsible for providing in-depth analysis of companies and generating new buy ideas consistent with the strategy’s high quality approach, including a rigorous integrated review of financial and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors. The Investment Management Committee, comprised of portfolio managers and analysts, meets periodically to review and approve recommendations to the buy-list recommended by the analysts. A strategy team, headed by the lead Portfolio Manager, rebalances the portfolio on at least a quarterly basis to identify the best subset of names from the buy-list at that particular point of time. The team leverages an optimization process that helps monitor and control portfolio characteristic exposures while overweighting companies based on a proprietary alpha score that includes an analyst rating. In this sense, the strategy is fundamentally driven, but quantitatively assisted.

Alpha is a measure of performance on a risk-adjusted basis. Alpha takes the volatility (price risk) of a mutual fund and compares its risk-adjusted performance to a benchmark index. The excess return of the fund relative to the return of the benchmark index is a fund’s alpha. Standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. The Weighted Average Market Capitalization is a stock market index weighted by the market capitalization of each stock in the index. The Weighted Harmonic Avg P/B is the weighted average of the price/book ratios of all the stocks in a portfolio. The Weighted Harmonic Avg fwd P/E is the ratio of the portfolio’s total market value to the total earnings of the portfolio.

The S&P 1000 combines the S&P MidCap 400 and the S&P Small Cap 600, to form a benchmark for the small-mid cap universe of the U.S. equity market. Returns reported reflect the net total return index, which reinvests dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.
The S&P 400 Index serves as a barometer for the U.S. mid-cap equities sector. The S&P 600 Index covers a broad range of small cap stocks in theUnited States.

The Morningstar Sustainability Rating is intended to measure how well the issuing companies of the securities within a fund’s portfolio holdings are managing their financially material environmental, social and governance, or ESG, risks relative to the fund’s Morningstar Global Category peers. The Morningstar Sustainability Rating calculation is a five-step process. First, each fund with at least 67% of assets covered by a company-level ESG Risk Score from Sustainalytics receives a Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score. The Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score is an asset-weighted average of company-level ESG Risk Scores. The Portfolio Sustainability Score ranges between 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating that a fund has, on average, more of its assets invested in companies with high ESG Risk. Second, the Historical Sustainability Score is an exponential weighted moving average of the Portfolio Sustainability Scores over the past 12 months. The process rescales the current Portfolio Sustainability Score to reflect the consistency of the scores. The Historical Sustainability Score ranges between 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating that a fund has, on average, more of its assets invested in companies with high ESG Risk, on a consistent historical basis. Third, the Morningstar Sustainability Rating is then assigned to all scored funds within Morningstar Global Categories in which at least thirty (30) funds receive a Historical Sustainability Score and is determined by each fund’s Morningstar Sustainability Rating Score rank within the following distribution: High (highest 10%), Above Average (next 22.5%), Average (next 35%), Below Average (next 22.5%), and Low (lowest 10%). Fourth, then Morningstar applies a 1% rating buffer from the previous month to increase rating stability. This means a fund must move 1% beyond the rating breakpoint to change ratings. Fifth, they adjust downward positive Sustainability Ratings to funds with high ESG Risk scores. The logic is as follows: If Portfolio Sustainability score is above 40, then the fund receives a Low Sustainability Rating. If Portfolio Sustainability score is above 35 and preliminary rating is Average or better, then the fund is downgraded to Below Average. If the Portfolio Sustainability score is above 30 and preliminary rating is Above Average, then the fund is downgraded to Average. If the Portfolio Sustainability score is below 30, then no adjustment is made. The Morningstar Sustainability Rating is depicted by globe icons where High equals 5 globes and Low equals 1 globe. Since a Sustainability Rating is assigned to all funds that meet the above criteria, the rating it is not limited to funds with explicit sustainable or responsible investment mandates. Morningstar updates its Sustainability Ratings monthly. The Portfolio Sustainability Score is calculated when Morningstar receives a new portfolio. Then, the Historical Sustainability Score and the Sustainability Rating is calculated one month and six business days after the reported as-of date of the most recent portfolio. As part of the evaluation process, Morningstar uses Sustainalytics’ ESG scores from the same month as the portfolio as-of date.
