Risk Disclosure: Small Cap, Small-Mid Cap and Mid Cap Funds: Small- and mid-capitalization issues tend to be more volatile and less liquid than large-capitalization issues. Large Cap Fund: Overall equity market risks may affect the portfolio’s value. Large Cap Concentrated Fund: Because the portfolio holds a limited number of securities, a decline in the value of these investments may affect overall performance to a greater degree than a less concentrated portfolio. Select Fund: Because the portfolio holds a limited number of securities, a decline in the value of these investments may affect overall performance to a greater degree than a less concentrated portfolio. Small- and mid-capitalization issues tend to be more volatile and less liquid than large-capitalization issues. International Fund: International investments involve special risks, including currency fluctuation, lower liquidity, different accounting methods, tax policies, political systems and higher transaction costs. These risks are typically greater in emerging markets. Small- and mid-capitalization issues tend to be more volatile and less liquid than large-capitalization issues. Long-Short Fund: The portfolio uses short selling which incurs significant additional risk. Theoretically, stocks sold short have the risk of unlimited losses. Overall equity market risks may affect the portfolio’s value. Short Duration Securitized Bond Fund: In general, when interest rates rise, fixed income values fall. Lower quality/high yield securities involve greater default risk or price changes than bonds with higher credit ratings. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are influenced by factors affecting the housing market and the assets underlying such securities. The securities may decline in value, face valuation difficulties, and become more volatile and/or illiquid. They are also subject to prepayment risk, which occurs when mortgage holders refinance or repay loans sooner than expected, creating an early return of principal to loan holders.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investment returns and principal values will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. For current to most recent month-end performance, visit diamond-hill.com. Performance assumes reinvestment of all distributions. Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. Class I and Y shares include performance based on Investor shares for the Small Cap Fund, Large Cap Fund and Long-Short Fund which was achieved prior to the creation of Class I and Y shares. Class Y shares include performance based on Investor shares for the Small-Mid Cap Fund and Select Fund which was achieved prior to the creation of Class Y shares. These total return figures may reflect the waiver of a portion of a Fund’s advisory or administrative fees for certain periods. In such instances, and without such waiver of fees, the total return would have been lower.

1 The quoted performance for the Fund reflects the past performance of Diamond Hill International Fund L.P. (the “International Partnership”), a private fund managed with full investment authority by the fund’s Adviser. The Fund is managed in all material respects in a manner equivalent to the management of the predecessor unregistered fund. The performance of the International Partnership has been restated to reflect the net expenses and maximum applicable sales charge of the fund for its initial years of investment operations. The International Partnership was not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and therefore was not subject to certain investment restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act. If the International Partnership had been registered under the 1940 Act, its performance may have been adversely affected. Performance is measured from December 30, 2016, the inception of the International Partnership and is not the performance of the fund. The assets of the International Partnership were converted, based on their value on June 28, 2019, into assets of the fund. The International Partnership’s past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the fund will perform in the future either before or after taxes.
2 Includes dividend expense relating to short sales. If dividend expenses relating to short sales were excluded, the Total Expense Ratio for the Long-Short Fund would have been 1.36% for Investor, 1.07% for Class I, and 0.95% for Class Y
