Average Annual Returns (%)


Performance figures are historical and do not guarantee future results. Investment returns and principal value will vary, and you may have a gain or loss when you sell shares. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.  Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available. Returns include changes in share price as well as reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains. Returns do not reflect the deduction of the 2% redemption fee imposed when shares are redeemed or exchanged within 30 calendar days from their date of purchase. If imposed, the fee would reduce the performance quoted. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Management fees and administrative expenses are included in the Fund’s performance. Returns for periods greater than one year are compounded average annual rates of return.

Notes
Performance listed above is current to the most recent quarter-end. Performance data current to the most recent month-end can be found on the Performance Summary page.
Mutual fund investing involves risk; principal loss is possible.  There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved, and the market value of securities held by the Fund may fall or fail to rise.  The Fund’s focus on growth stocks may cause the Fund’s performance at times to be better or worse than the performance of funds that focus on other types of stocks or that have a broader investment style.  An increase in interest rates may lower the value of the fixed-income securities held by the Fund.  A decrease in interest rates may lower the income earned by the Fund.  More information on these risks considerations, as well as information on other risks to which the Fund is subject, are included in the Fund’s prospectus.  The prospectus may be obtained by calling Sit Mutual Funds at 1-800-332-5580 or downloaded from this website.  Read the prospectus carefully before investing.  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.  Carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing.
Fund holdings, sector allocations (as % of market value) and portfolio characteristics may change at any time and are not investment recommendations.  The S&P 500® Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index that measures the performance of 500 widely held common stocks of large-cap companies.  The Bloomberg Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged market value-weighted index which measures the performance of investment grade debt securities with maturities of at least one year. Total return comprises price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. Indices are rebalanced monthly by market capitalization.  It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
