We cannot promise future returns and our opinions are a reflection of our best judgment at the time of this interview. Investing in the stock market is always risky. Current and future portfolio holdings in the Baron Funds are subject to risk.


The discussions of any companies throughout these interviews are not intended as advice to any person regarding the advisability of investing in any particular security.

The portfolio managers' views are not intended as recommendations or investment advice to any person and are subject to change at any time based on market and other conditions and Baron has no obligation to update them.


Performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate; an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted above. For performance information current to the most recent month end, visit www.BaronFunds.com/performance or call 800-99-BARON. The Adviser has reimbursed certain fund expenses for Baron Opportunity, Baron Fifth Avenue Growth, Baron Focused Growth, Baron International Growth, Baron Real Estate and Baron Emerging Markets Funds and all Funds' transfer agency expenses may be reduced by expense offsets from an unaffiliated transfer agent, without which performance would have been lower.


Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of the investment carefully before investing. The Baron Funds' prospectuses contain this and other information about the Funds. Please read it carefully before investing.
