2. Investment Disclosure on Risks

An investor should consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing or sending money. This and other important
information about the fund can be found in the fund’s prospectus, or, if applicable, the summary prospectus. Any decision to invest in Ashton Global funds
should be made on the basis of the current prospectus, which is available on request at info@ashtonglobal.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
All investing involves risk, including potential loss of principal. There is no guarantee that the fund will achieve its objective. Investing in smaller companies can
involve risks such as having less publicly available information, higher volatility, and less liquidity than in the case of larger companies. Overweighting
investments in certain sectors or industries increases the risk of loss due to general declines in the prices of stocks in those sectors or industries. Investments in
technology companies may be highly volatile.

SECTOR AGNOSTIC
As an emerging fund manager, we can deploy capital in deep value
and special situations that are overlooked by larger investors. We go
anywhere there’s a rule of law to find deep value opportunities.
We don’t manage our portfolios according to benchmarks, and we can
overweight or underweight sectors based on our expectations of value
and future returns.
4. Our portfolio managers identify and specialize in small-
cap and micro-cap deep value investments. With a global
mandate, the fund invests truly where it sees the most
value.
Investors realize higher returns through our vigilant focus on
minimizing the costs associated with active investment
management. Long holding periods and 30% annual
turnover help to minimize costs.

5. Portfolio Manager Snapshot
Thinley Wangchuk is a partner at Ashton Global and the
lead portfolio manager for the Ashton Global International
Small-Cap Fund via a sub-advisory relationship with
Wangchuk Capital.
Thinley has ten years of investment experience with
expertise in small-cap stocks, arbitrage and special
situations. He holds a degree in Management with a
concentration in Finance from the University of British
Columbia.
“To outperform the market, an investor must be willing and
able to invest in the smallest of companies. Non-traditional
equities such as micro-cap stocks offer investors the
opportunity to earn above-average returns while taking less
risk.”
Our Philosophy
Why invest in small-caps?
Historically, the market has rewarded
investors that are willing to purchase
thinly-traded stocks.
Institutional investors value liquidity and
prefer the ability to liquidate any holding
within a short time frame (i.e. minutes &
hours).
As a result, securities that require a
larger time commitment to liquidate
often trade at significant discounts from
fundamental value.
Why international stocks?
Diversification, growth and a more
extensive set of opportunities.
International investment returns can move in a
different direction than U.S. market returns.
With a portfolio that includes domestic and
foreign stocks, investors could potentially
reduce the risk of losing money if U.S. markets
decline.
Investing internationally also lets you capture
investment opportunities that arise from fast-
growing economies and markets whose
currencies are appreciating against the dollar.
Our Process
Our process begins with screening methods to identify companies trading below book
value with favorable fundamentals.
Many of the investments also have imbedded optionality that is difficult for most market
participants to price.
We perform a bottoms-up scenario analysis to determine our estimates of intrinsic
value.
We require a margin of safety with each holding in the portfolio and companies are
selected based on their relative discounts to our estimates of intrinsic value.
The deep-value tilt to our investment strategy lowers portfolio volatility.
