RBDGX Investment Objective and Strategy

Raub Brock Dividend Growth Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Investment Managers Series Trust II.

Investment objective

"The investment objective of the Raub Brock Dividend Growth Fund (the ""Fund"") is long-term capital appreciation."

Principal investment strategy

"Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in the equity securities of dividend-paying companies. In particular, the Fund focuses on common stocks of large capitalization companies with increasing dividends that trade on U.S. stock exchanges, regardless of where the company is headquartered. Raub Brock Capital Management, L.P. (the ""Advisor""), the Fund's investment advisor, believes that its focus on investing in high quality companies with growing dividends provides the best opportunity for the Fund to achieve better returns, with less risk, than its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, thereby providing the potential for superior performance in rising markets and preservation of capital during declining markets.

The Advisor creates an initial investable universe by first screening for large capitalization companies that (i) have increased dividends for at least five consecutive years and (ii) have sufficient trading liquidity, as measured by average daily value traded during the previous three months. The Advisor then screens the remaining companies based on specific growth characteristics (dividend growth, dividend growth capacity and earnings growth) and quality characteristics (leverage, financial efficiency, financial stability and earnings dispersion). Finally, the Advisor excludes companies involved in alcohol, gambling, tobacco, civilian firearms, military weapons or nuclear power. The Advisor then performs fundamental, bottom-up research on each remaining company, focusing on a company's management, competitive position, strategy, market, growth outlook and valuation, to create a portfolio of approximately 20 stocks.

The Advisor selects stocks of companies it considers to have the best expected return, attractive valuation, and low volatility. The Fund is classified as ""non-diversified"" for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the ""1940 Act""), which means a relatively high percentage of the Fund's assets may be invested in the securities of a limited number of companies that could be in the same or related economic sectors. The Advisor may sell all or a portion of a position when, in its opinion, one or more of the following occurs, among other reasons: (i) the issuer decreases its dividend or the Advisor believes a decrease in dividend is imminent; (ii) the issuer's dividend increase is below the Advisor's projections; (iii) the issuer's fundamentals deteriorate; (iv) the reason(s) for maintaining the position are no longer valid; (v) the Advisor's view of the business fundamentals or management of the underlying company changes; (vi) a more attractive investment opportunity is found; (vii) general market conditions trigger a change in the Advisor's assessment criteria; (viii) for other portfolio management reasons; or (ix) the Fund requires cash to meet redemption requests."
