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 3.75% 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 Feb. 28, 2011. 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 bonds involves risks that may adversely affect the value of your investment such as inflation risk, credit risk, call risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk, among others.
There are risks associated with fixed income investing, even though many investors consider bonds to be “risk free” investment vehicles. Historically, bonds have indeed provided less volatility and less risk of loss of capital than has equity investing. However, there are many factors which may affect the risk and return profile of a fixed income portfolio. The two most prominent factors are interest rate movements and the credit worthiness of the bond issuer. Bonds issued by the U.S. government have significantly less risk of default than those issued by corporations and municipalities. However, the overall return on government bonds tends to be less than these other types of fixed income securities. Investors should pay careful attention to the types of fixed income securities which comprise their portfolios and remember that, as with all investments, there is the risk of loss of capital.
