Upcoming Fund Consolidation: What You Need to Know

Shareowners will be asked to vote on three proposed reorganizations at a special meeting to be held on February 27, 2026, at 1 p.m. PST and 4 p.m. EST.

The Saturna Bond Income Fund and Saturna Short-Term Bond Fund will each merge into the Saturna Sustainable Bond Fund. The Saturna Global High Income Fund will merge into the Saturna Core Fund. These reorganizations, if approved, are expected to take effect on  March 20, 2026.

Separately, the Saturna Sustainable Equity Fund will merge into the Saturna International Fund Z Class Shares following the close of business on March 20, 2026. This transaction does not require shareowner approval.

The consolidations offer several important benefits:

• Continuous Professional Management: All investments will continue to be managed according to Saturna's established investment philosophy and expertise.
• Tax-Efficient Transactions: Share exchanges will be conducted on a tax-free basis for federal income tax purposes, with no sales charges.
• Streamlined Operations: A more focused fund lineup enhances operational efficiency while maintaining quality investment management.
• Detailed Information: Shareholders will receive comprehensive registration statements explaining each proposed reorganization.

If your fund merger requires shareowner approval your vote is crucial and we ask that you vote your shares, otherwise Shareowners are not required to take any action at this time unless you wish to change your investment prior to the reorganizations.
