Valuation Analysis the impact it may have on the market price.


The below referenced items are reported as both a current value and a 5-year
average figure.

Price/Earnings is the stock's price divided by the company's earnings per share.

Forward P/E ratio is the most-recent stock price divided by the mean EPS
estimate for the current fiscal year. This number gives some indication of how
cheap or expensive a stock is compared with consensus earnings estimates. The
lower the forward P/E, the cheaper the stock. Reuters Estimates data is used in
the denominator of this calculation.

Price/Cash Flow is the stock's price divided by the cash-flow per share of the
latest fiscal year.

Price/Free Cash Flow is the free cash flow divided by its "enterprise value", or
market capitalization plus net debt. This number tells you what cash return you
would get if you bought the entire company, including its debt.

Dividend Yield % is a percentage calculated by dividing total dividends by the


current market price and multiplying by 100.

Price/Book is the stock price divided by the book value per share.

Price/Sales is the stock's price divided by the company's sales per share.

PEG Ratio is Forward P/E ratio divided by the company's EPS Growth % Five

calculated by taking the current share price and dividing by the mean EPS
estimate for the current fiscal year. The denominator is the average estimate of
long-term EPS growth, derived from all polled analysts' estimates from Reuters
Estimates.

Investment Risks
International/Emerging Market Equities: Investing in international securities
involves special additional risks. These risks include, but are not limited to,
currency risk, political risk, and risk associated with varying accounting
standards. Investing in emerging markets may accentuate these risks.

Non-Diversified Strategies: Portfolios that invest a significant percentage of


assets in a single issuer involve additional risks, including share price
fluctuations, because of the increased concentration of investments.

Small Cap Equities: Portfolios that invest in stocks of small companies involve
additional risks. Smaller companies typically have a higher risk of failure, and
are not as well established as larger blue-chip companies. Historically, smaller-
company stocks have experienced a greater degree of market volatility than the
overall market average.

Mid Cap Equities: Portfolios that invest in companies with market capitalization
below $10 billion involve additional risks. The securities of these companies
may be more volatile and less liquid than the securities of larger companies.

Short Positions: When a short position moves in an unfavorable way, the losses
are theoretically unlimited. The broker may demand more collateral and a
manager might have to close out a short position at an inopportune time to limit
further losses.

Market Risk: The market prices of investments can fluctuate as a result of


several factors, such as security-specific factors or general investor sentiment.
Therefore, investors should be aware of the prospect of market fluctuations and
