Past results
The bar graph below shows the fund’s annual results and illustrates the fund’s fluctuations over the past 10 years. (These percentages are based on Class R-4 shares at net asset value after the share class inception date of May 15, 2002. All Class R-4 share results prior to this date, or prior to the date of first sale, are hypothetical based on Class A share results, adjusted for typical additional estimated expenses, and are calculated without a sales charge. These results are updated annually as of 12/31. Other share class results will vary.)
Figures shown are past results and are not predictive of results in future periods. Current and future results may be lower or higher than those shown here.

Class R shares were first offered on May 15, 2002, and are sold without a sales charge. Class R-4 share returns prior to the date shares first sold are hypothetical. Hypothetical returns prior to the date of first sale were calculated by adjusting Class A share returns without a sales charge for the difference between the Class A share expense ratio and the estimated Class R-4 share expense ratio as of the date of first sale. See the dates of first sale and expense adjustments for Class R-4 shares. Please see the fund prospectus for more information about specific expenses.
