Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance quoted represents past performance and current performance may be lower or higher. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Returns include reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Performance for periods greater than one year is annualized.

Class A Shares at load reflect a maximum sales charge of 2.25%. 

Class C Shares are not subject to an initial sales charge, but are subject to a deferred sales charge of 1.00% on shares redeemed within the first year. Class C at load for periods less than 1 year reflect the effect of the 1.00% CDSC.

Fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements were in place for some or all periods shown, without which, fund performance would have been lower.

Net expense ratio reflects the contractual waiver and/or reimbursement of management fees through April 30, 2024.

High, double-digit returns are highly unusual and cannot be sustained. Investors should be aware that these returns were primarily achieved during favorable market conditions.

Quality Structure

Credit quality ratings on underlying securities of the fund reflect the highest long-term rating from S&P, Moody’s, or Fitch, and are converted to the equivalent S&P major rating category. S&P rates securities in descending order as AAA, AA, A, BBB, BB, B, CCC, CC, C and D. Unrated securities do not necessarily indicate low quality. Below-investment-grade is represented by a rating of BB and below. Quality ratings are subject to change.

(As of )

Average Life Structure

Weighted Average Life (WAL) or number of years for which each dollar of unpaid principal on a loan or mortgage remains outstanding. Once calculated, WAL indicates how many years it will take to pay half of the outstanding principal.

The Victory Tax Exempt Fund seeks to maximize current income exempt from federal income taxes, consistent with the preservation of capital. Under normal circumstances at least 80% of the value of its assets will be invested in tax-exempt municipal obligations. This is a fundamental policy that cannot be changed without shareholder approval. The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade municipal obligations, the interest on which is, in the opinion of the issuer’s bond counsel, exempt from federal income tax including the federal alternative minimum tax.

Carefully consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the fund's prospectus or, if available, the summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting the Mutual Fund and ETF prospectus pages at vcm.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

All investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal.

Other share classes are available. Not all share classes are available to all investors.

In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate, inflation, credit and default risk. The bond market is volatile. Bonds and bond funds will decrease in value as interest rates rise and vice versa. Credit risk refers to the possibility that debt issuers may not be able to make principal and interest payments or may have their debt downgraded by ratings agencies.

High yield securities may be more volatile, be subject to greater levels of credit or default risk, and may be less liquid and more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price than higher-rated securities of similar maturity. 

Some income may be subject to state or local taxes or the federal Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).

Derivatives may not work as intended and may result in losses.

The value of your investment is also subject to geopolitical risks such as wars, terrorism, environmental disasters, and public health crises; the risk of technology malfunctions or disruptions; and the responses to such events by governments and/or individual companies.

The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index (BBg Municipal Bond) is considered to be generally representative of investment-grade-municipal issues having remaining maturities greater than 1 year and a national scope.

The Morningstar RatingTM for funds, or “star rating,” is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed- end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.

Fund performance used for the rankings reflects certain fee waivers, without which, Morningstar rankings would have been lower and Morningstar ratings may have been lower.
