Performance data quoted represents past performance which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Net performance reflects a front-end sales charge or 4.75% for class A shares. A 1% contingent deferred sales charge for class C shares is charged on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase, but not at one year. The fund's investment adviser, Eagle Asset Management, Inc.; has contractually agreed to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses through February 28, 2010. Performance data quoted reflects reinvested dividends and capital gains. Returns less than one year are not annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Investing in small- and mid-cap stocks, international securities, technology companies, and aggressive growth companies may involve additional risks. These risks are described in the fund’s prospectus.

Ratings may vary among share classes and are based on past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
