PMOYX Putnam Mortgage Opportunities Fund
- Multiple securitized sectors. Investing in residential and commercial MBS and collateralized mortgage obligations, the portfolio managers can pursue strategies independent of the direction of the U.S. housing market.
- Portfolio diversification. Securitized sectors offer effective diversification potential to portfolios with equity, corporate credit, and emerging market debt exposures.
- Dynamic risk allocation. Our differentiated approach actively allocates to credit, prepayment, and liquidity risks while deemphasizing interest-rate risk.

Performance
Calendar Year Returns
As of 10/31/2025
Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the figures shown. Principal value and investment returns will fluctuate, and investors' shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Performance would have been lower if fees had not been waived in various periods. Total returns assume the reinvestment of all distributions and the deduction of all Fund expenses. Returns with sales charge reflect a deduction of the stated maximum sales charge. Returns without sales charge would have been lower had sales charges been reflected. An investor cannot invest directly in an index, and unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. Returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized.
The fund began offering Class Y shares on 7/1/2019. Returns for periods prior to 7/1/2019 reflect a restated figure based on the fund's Class I performance. The restated performance for Class Y was adjusted to take into account differences in class-specific operating expenses and maximum sales charges. For periods after the share class offering, performance for the specific share class is used, reflecting the applicable expenses and maximum sales charges.

Risks
All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Fixed income securities involve interest rate, credit, inflation and reinvestment risks, and possible loss of principal. As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities falls. Low-rated, high-yield bonds are subject to greater price volatility, illiquidity and possibility of default. Derivative instruments can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on performance. Active management does not ensure gains or protect against market declines. The manager may consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria in the research or investment process; however, ESG considerations may not be a determinative factor in security selection. In addition, the manager may not assess every investment for ESG criteria, and not every ESG factor may be identified or evaluated. These and other risks are discussed in the fund's prospectus.
Important Information
Most funds offer multiple share classes. Share classes are subject to different fees and expenses, which will affect their performance.
Certain share classes are only offered to eligible investors as stated in the prospectus. Different minimums may apply to clients of certain service agents. All classes of shares are not available through all distribution channels. See the Fund's prospectus for additional information.
