1 The inception date of Class A shares was May 7, 1993, Class B shares was March 26, 1999 and Class C shares was December 12, 2000. Historical performance shown for Class B prior to its inception is based on the performance of Class A, the original class offered, and has been adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to Classes B. Historical performance shown for Class C prior to its inception is based on the performance of Class B. Classes B and C have the same expenses. Historical performance shown for all classes of the Fund prior to July 16, 2010 is based on the performance of the fund's predecessor, Evergreen Special Values Fund. 2 For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each 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. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. 3 Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. You cannot invest directly in an index. 4 The Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Average is an average of funds that invest at least 75% of their equity assets in companies with market capitalizations (on a three year weighted basis) of less than 250% of the dollar weighted median market capitalization of the smallest 500 of the middle 1,000 securities of the S&P SuperComposite 1500 Index. These funds typically have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio, price-to-book ratio, and three-year sales-per share growth value, compared to the S&P SmallCap 600 Index. The total return of the Lipper Average does not include the effect of sales charges. You cannot invest directly in a Lipper Average.
