Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance shown without sales charges would be lower if sales charges were reflected. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted and assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.

Public offering price (POP) is the price of one share of a fund including any sales charges. Net asset value (NAV) is the value of one share of the fund excluding any sales charges. Had sales charges been included, performance would be lower. Returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized.

For Class A shares, the maximum front-end sales charge is 5.75%. Performance including sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period.


Expenses – Share Class A
Net Expense Ratio
effective since 02-01-2013
1.08%
 
Gross Expense Ratio 1.14%

The advisor has committed, through 1-31-14, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the fund's total annual fund operating expenses after fee waiver, excluding certain expenses, at 1.08%. Without this cap, the fund's returns would have been lower.

1 The inception date of Class A shares was 4-14-87 and Class B and Class C shares was 2-1-93. Historical performance shown for Classes B and C prior to their 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 and C. Historical performance shown for all classes of the Fund prior to 7-9-10 is based on the performance of the fund's predecessor, Evergreen Diversified Income Builder 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.

4 The Lipper Mixed-Asset Target Allocation Conservative Funds Average is an average of funds that, by portfolio practice, maintain a mix of between 20%-40% equity securities, with the remainder invested in bonds, cash, and cash equivalents. The total return of the Lipper Average does not include the effect of sales charges. You cannot invest directly in a Lipper Average.
