Morningstar Ranking is based on total return as of 11/8/18. The
Fund's total-return percentile rank is relative to all funds that
are in the Morningstar ETF Large Blend and Small Blend categories.
The highest (or most favorable) percentile rank is 1 and the lowest
(or least favorable) percentile rank is 100. The top performing
fund in a category will always receive a rank of 1. Fund rankings
are subject to change monthly.
An investment in the Fund is subject to investment risk,
including the possible loss of principal amount invested. The Fund,
seeks to provide exposure to investments based on the following
factors: value, momentum, quality, low volatility and size, and to
weight such factors based on changes in the economic cycle. There
can be no assurance that doing so will enhance the Fund's
performance over time. Investing significantly in a particular
region, industry, sector or issuer may increase volatility and
risk. Fund returns may not match the return of its respective
index, known as non-correlation risk, due to operating expenses
incurred by the Fund. Because the Fund has the potential to be
rebalanced monthly, portfolio turnover may exceed 100%. The greater
the portfolio turnover, the greater the transaction costs, which
could have an adverse effect on Fund performance.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations
of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the
FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including
the possible loss of the principal amount invested.
Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds,
investors should carefully consider a fund's investment objectives,
risks, charges and expenses. Fund prospectuses and summary
prospectuses contain this and other information about the funds,
and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor, visiting
oppenheimerfunds.com or calling 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Read
prospectuses and summary prospectuses carefully before
investing.
