High Yield Equity Income List Overview

The High Yield Equity Income List (High Yield List) focuses on companies with higher dividend yields than the broader market. Our objective is to provide a diverse list of high yielding stocks with secure dividend streams that an investor can utilize as part of an income-producing portfolio and are willing to accept a higher level of risk.

ANALYST CERTIFICATION: The analyst who prepared this report hereby certifies that the views expressed in this report accurately reflect his/her personal views about the subject companies and their securities. The analyst also certifies that he/she has not been, is not, and will not be receiving direct or indirect compensation for expressing the specific recommendation(s) or view(s) in this report.

Disclaimers Prices and estimates are as of December 21, 2021 unless indicated otherwise.

You should be aware that investments can fluctuate in price, value and/or income, and you may get back less than you invested. We recommend that existing shareholders consider their objectives, their risk tolerance, and the size of their positions relative to their portfolios when evaluating their holdings.

Equity securities are subject to market risk which means their value may fluctuate in response to general economic and market conditions and the perception of individual issuers. Investments in equity securities are generally more volatile than other types of securities. There is no guarantee dividend-paying stocks will return more than the overall market. Dividends are not guaranteed and are subject to change or elimination.

The prices of small and mid-cap company stocks are generally more volatile than large company stocks. They often involve higher risks because smaller companies may lack the management expertise, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths to endure adverse economic conditions.

Investing in foreign securities presents certain unique risks not associated with domestic investments, such as currency fluctuation and political and economic changes. This may result in greater price volatility.

Sector investing can be more volatile than investments that are broadly diversified over numerous sectors of the economy and will increase a portfolio's vulnerability to any single economic, political, or regulatory development affecting the sector. This can result in greater price volatility. The Communication Services sector is subject to the risks associated with rising interest rates which could increase debt service costs, competition, increased costs to providers due to potential for large equipment upgrades. Risks associated with the Consumer Discretionary sector include, among others, apparel price deflation due to low-cost entries, high inventory levels and pressure from e-commerce players; reduction in traditional advertising dollars, increasing household debt levels that could limit consumer appetite for discretionary purchases, declining consumer acceptance of new product introductions, and geopolitical uncertainty that could affect consumer sentiment. Consumer Staples industries can be significantly affected by competitive pricing particularly with respect to the growth of low-cost emerging market production, government regulation, the performance of the overall economy, interest rates, and consumer confidence. The Energy sector may be adversely affected by changes in worldwide energy prices, exploration, production spending, government regulation, and changes in exchange rates, depletion of natural resources, and risks that arise from extreme weather conditions. Investing in the Financial services companies will subject an investment to adverse economic or regulatory occurrences affecting the sector. Some of the risks associated with investment in the Health Care sector include competition on branded products, sales erosion due to cheaper alternatives, research and development risk, government regulations and government approval of products anticipated to enter the market. There is increased risk investing in the Industrials sector. The industries within the sector can be significantly
