| 1Advisor Share Inception Date: 6/2/08 2Net Asset Value (NAV) 3Fund performance is not annualized. Source: Artisan Partners The performance quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares in the Fund, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. The Fund's performance information reflects Artisan Partners' agreement to limit the Fund's expenses and has had a material impact on the Fund's performance, which would have been lower in its absence. The Fund's performance information shown does not reflect the deduction of a 2% redemption fee on shares held by an investor for 90 days or less and, if reflected, the fee would reduce the performance quoted. A mutual fund’s NAV is the value of a single share and is computed daily using closing prices as of the NYSE closing time – usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, but sometimes earlier. Securities for which prices are not readily available (such as when there are significant changes in one or more U.S. market indices) are valued at a fair value under the Funds’ Valuation Procedures as described in the Funds’ prospectus. When fair value pricing is employed, the value of a portfolio security used by the Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from (and consequently be higher or lower than) quoted or published prices for the same security. Fair value pricing is not employed by market indices. Quotations of mutual fund performance are calculated using NAV and are therefore impacted by fair value pricing. |
