Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Hennessy Energy Transition Fund is considered a non-diversified fund. A non-diversified fund, which may concentrate its assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund, is more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund. A fund that concentrates its investments within one sector may be subject to a higher degree of market risk. The formula-based strategy employed by the Hennessy Mid Cap 30 Fund may cause the Fund to buy or sell securities at times when it may not be advantageous. A fund that concentrates its investments within one country, one sector, or a small group of industries, such as Japan, Technology, Financials, or Energy, may be subject to a higher degree of market risk.

The Hennessy Funds are distributed by Quasar Distributors, LLC, Distributor.
