Nothing contained herein may be relied upon as a guarantee, promise, assurance or a representation as to the future.

The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for managed products (including 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 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 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.

As of 08/31/2025, PTIAX received 5, 4, 4 and 5 stars among 534, 534, 474, and 353 Intermediate Core-Plus Funds for overall, 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year time periods, respectively, based on risk-adjusted returns.
