The Zacks #1 Rank Performance covers the period beginning on January 1, 1988 through December 30, 2024. The
performance is the equal weighted performance of a hypothetical portfolio consisting of stocks with a Zacks Rank of #1
that was rebalanced monthly from January 1988 through December 2013 and weekly from 12/31/13 through Monday’s
open on December 30, 2024. For each stock with a Zacks Rank #1 at the beginning of the month, the total return during
the month was calculated as the % change in the price of the stock from the closing price of the prior month to the closing
price of the current month plus any dividends received during the month. The monthly individual stock returns were then
averaged to determine the portfolio return for the month. For each stock with a Zacks Rank #1 at the beginning of the
week, the total return during the week was calculated as the % change in the price of the stock from the opening price for
the week to the opening price of the next week plus any dividends received during the week. The weekly individual stock
returns were then averaged to determine the portfolio return for the week. If no month-end price or week end open price
was available for a stock, it was not included in the portfolio return for the month or the week. The monthly and weekly
returns were compounded to arrive at the annual returns. The annualized return is the annual return that, had it been
achieved in each year or portion of a year, would have compounded to create the total return over the full time period.
These returns are based on the list of Zacks Rank #1 Stocks that was available to clients of Zacks as of the beginning of the
month, when returns were calculated monthly, or as of the beginning of the week when returns were calculated weekly.
These returns are higher than the returns an investor could achieve investing real money in a portfolio of Zacks Rank #1
stocks because the returns of the hypothetical Zacks Rank #1 portfolio exclude a number of costs, including commissions
incurred for trading, the average bid ask spread, the price impact of the trading and, prior to 2013, in those months when
the end of the month fell on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, the overnight return from the month end close to the open on
the next trading day. The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index. Visit www.zacks.com/performance_disclosure for information
