Fund Performance

 
   
   
 

The performance quoted represents past performance, does not guarantee future results and current performance may be lower or higher than the data quoted. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any. Performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained at www.forwardfunds.com.
