GINCX Investment Objective and Strategy

CLS Growth & Income Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Advisorone Funds.

Investment objective

The investment objective is a combination of current income and growth of capital.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund invests primarily in exchange traded funds (ETFs), other open-end mutual funds, and closed-end funds. This group of investments is referred to as Underlying Funds. The Funds investment adviser, CLS Investments, LLC (CLS), seeks to achieve the Funds investment objective by using the following investment strategies: ? Investing in Underlying Funds that invest in common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stock (such as convertible preferred stock, convertible debentures or warrants), including the stock of foreign issuers. The Underlying Funds are selected based on the security selection methodology used by the Underlying Funds adviser, as well as CLSs assessment of asset class trends, asset class fundamentals, diversification impact, and the cost and liquidity of the Underlying Fund.

These investments may include smaller and medium capitalization companies. ? Although the Funds allocation may vary over time, the Fund typically invests approximately 50% of its total assets to equity securities (with the allowable range set at approximately 30-70%) and approximately 50% of its total assets to fixed income securities, including securities with lower debt ratings (junk bonds) (with the allowable range set at approximately 30-70%), including cash and cash equivalents. Because the Fund invests across multiple asset classes and is invested to maintain a relatively consistent level of risk, the Funds risk budget benchmark is included to provide a better performance comparison than a broad-based, single asset class benchmark. The Funds risk budget benchmark is comprised 55% of a diversified equity portfolio and 45% of the 1-3 month U.S.

Treasury Index. The diversified equity portfolio is defined as 60% of the Russell 3000 Index and 40% of the MSCI ACWI (ex-US). The weightings against this benchmark are consistent with the risk level of the Fund and these indexes are utilized to reflect the Funds broad exposure to the global equity market. The Russell 3000 Index is an index that measures 98% of the investable U.S. equity market. The MSCI ACWI (ex-US) is an index that provides a broad measure of stock performance throughout the world, with the exception of U.S.-based equities. The index includes both developed and emerging markets. CLS seeks to control risk within a given range by estimating the risk of the Funds investments and keeping it near that of the risk budget benchmark. CLSs assessment of a portfolios risk evaluates multiple risk factors over various time frames, including the portfolios volatility and performance during down periods.

CLS actively manages the Funds investments by increasing or decreasing the Funds investment in particular asset classes, sectors, regions and countries, or in a particular security, based on its assessment of the opportunities for return relative to the risk using fundamental and technical analysis. Because of the varying levels of risk amongst equity and bond asset classes, the percent allocated to equities and bonds will vary depending on which asset classes are selected for the portfolio. When selecting Underlying Funds for investment, CLS considers the Underlying Funds investment goals and strategies, the investment adviser and portfolio manager, and past performance. When CLS selects individual equity securities, it considers both growth prospects and anticipated dividend income. CLS selects bond funds and bonds based on an analysis of credit qualities, maturities, and coupon or dividend rates.

When selecting bond funds and bonds for investment, CLS considers economic outlook, current and expected interest rates, and perceived value in positioning fixed income. Credit quality analysis is generally based on economic outlook, maturities are based on CLSs outlook for interest rates, and coupon or dividend rate analysis is based on perceived value. CLS may sell an investment if it determines that the asset class, sector, region or country is no longer desirable or if CLS believes that another Underlying Fund or security within the category offers a better opportunity to achieve the Funds objective.
