Based on total investment value as of 03/31/10. Portfolio holdings are subject to change and should not be considered a recommendation to buy individual securities.

All returns over 1 year are annualized. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future returns. The value of an investment in the Funds and the return on investment both will fluctuate and redemption proceeds may be higher or lower than an investor’s original cost. Total return is calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends. Total returns would have been lower had the Adviser, the Distributor, the Administrator, and Custodian not waived or reimbursed a portion of their fees. The performance of each class may vary based on differences in loads or fees paid by the shareholders investing in each class. For more performance numbers current to the most recent month-end please call 1-866-811-0225. Class N Shares are not subject to an initial sales charge or a CDSC.

Liahona is a fund of funds meaning it invests in underlying mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (“Underlying Funds”). In some instances, it may be less expensive for an investor to invest in the Underlying Funds directly. There is also a risk that the investment advisors of those Underlying Funds may make investment decisions detrimental to the performance of the Fund or may be more volatile than investments in other mutual funds.

Objective

The Objective of the Liahona Fund is growth of capital and current income.

 

Commentary

Liahona  increased +3.08% during the first quarter of 2010, underperforming its 65% equity/35% bond benchmark, which generated a total return of + 4.12%. For the last twelve months Liahona outperformed its benchmark by slightly more than three percent.

 

In the first quarter markets became more optimistic about economic growth rates worldwide. Economically sensitive parts of the market, such as domestic small caps and value outperformed. Liahona is overweight growth securities, which are displaying very low risk characteristics relative to their long-term averages. The overweight position in growth and underperformance by international securities caused the fund to lag in the first quarter.

 

The fixed income and risk reduction portion of the portfolio is overweight corporate bonds of both high and low quality.  Liahona also holds a small position in a security whose price is tied to movements in volatility for risk reduction. Corporate bonds in the portfolio have been strong contributors to performance since the end of 2008.
