MDLV is actively managed to invest in 30-75 dividend-paying companies screened from US-listed, large-cap stocks. In constructing the portfolio, the adviser uses a fundamental approach to identify companies with attractive financials and trading at a discount. The adviser's valuation matrix utilizes price in relation to earnings, book value, cash flow, and sales. Additionally, it considers enterprise value to EBITDA, sales, and dividend yield. The fund's objective is to provide high current income and capital appreciation. As a result, dividend-paying companies are favored, especially those that paid out during challenging times and those perceived to have a catalyst for future improvements. The fund considers free cash flow a key factor in dividend growth, more so than dividend payout ratios, despite the investments in dividend-paying companies.
