---

(a) Purchases of Class A shares in amounts of $1,000,000 or more, or by certain group retirement plans, may be subject to
a 1%, 1-year contingent deferred sales charge, or CDSC, which may be subject to waiver in certain circumstances.

------

(b) For Class C shares, the CDSC is 0% after the first year. Class C shares automatically convert to Class A
shares after eight years.

(c) In connection with the Fund's investments in AB Government Money Market Portfolio (the "Money Market
Portfolio") (except for the investment of any cash collateral from securities lending), the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee from the Fund and/or reimburse other expenses of the Fund in an amount equal to the
Fund's pro rata share of the Money Market Portfolio's effective management fee. The agreement may only be terminated or changed with the consent of the Fund's Board of Directors.

(d) Amount is less than 0.005%.

**Examples** 

The Examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year, that the Fund's operating expenses stay the same and that any fee waiver and/or expense limitation remains in effect for only the first year. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Class A** | **Class C** | **Advisor Class** | **Class I** | **Class Z** |
|  After 1 Year | $515 | $272 \* | $70 | $77 | $67 |
|  After 3 Years | $708 | $535 | $223 | $242 | $213 |
|  After 5 Years | $917 | $922 | $389 | $421 | $372 |
|  After 10 Years | $1519 | $1803 | $870 | $941 | $834 |

---

\* If you did not redeem your shares at the end of the period, your expenses would be decreased by approximately $100. 

**Portfolio Turnover** 

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys or sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These transaction costs, which are not reflected in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Examples, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 80% of the average value of its portfolio.

**PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES** 

The Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of equity securities with relatively smaller capitalizations as compared to the overall U.S. market. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies. For these purposes, "small- and mid-capitalization companies" are generally those companies that, at the time of investment, fall within the lowest 25% of the total U.S. equity market capitalization (excluding, for purposes of this calculation, companies with market capitalizations of less than $10 million). As of June 30, 2025, there were approximately 3,230 companies within the lowest 25% of the total U.S. equity market capitalization (excluding companies with market capitalizations of less than $10 million) with market capitalizations ranging from $10 million to $48.7 million. Because the Fund's definition of small- and mid-capitalization companies is dynamic, the limits on market capitalization will change with the markets. In the future, the Fund may define small- and mid-capitalization companies using a different classification system.

The Fund may invest in any company and industry and in any type of equity security with potential for capital appreciation. It invests in well-known and established companies and in new and less-seasoned companies. The Fund's investment policies emphasize investments in companies that are demonstrating improving financial results and a favorable earnings outlook. The Fund may invest in foreign securities.

When selecting securities, the Adviser typically looks for companies that have strong, experienced management teams, strong market positions, and the potential to support greater than expected earnings growth rates. In making specific investment decisions for the Fund, the Adviser combines fundamental and quantitative analysis in its stock selection process.

The Fund invests principally in equity securities but may also invest in other types of securities, such as preferred stocks. The Fund, at times, invests in shares of exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") in lieu of making direct investments in securities. ETFs may provide more efficient and economical exposure to the types of companies and geographic locations in which the Fund seeks to invest than direct investments. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its total assets in rights and warrants.

The Fund may enter into derivatives transactions, such as options, futures contracts, forwards and swaps to manage risk and to seek to generate additional returns. The Fund may use options strategies involving the purchase and/or writing of various combinations of call and/or put options, including on individual securities and stock indices, futures contracts (including futures contracts on individual securities and stock indices) or shares of ETFs. These transactions may be used, for example, in an effort to earn extra income, to adjust exposure to individual securities or markets, or to protect all or a portion of the Fund's portfolio from a decline in value, sometimes within certain ranges.

------

**PRINCIPAL RISKS** 

• **Market Risk:** The value of the Fund's assets will fluctuate as the market or markets in which the
Fund invests fluctuate. The value of the Fund's investments may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, simply because of economic changes or other events, including public health crises (including the occurrence of a contagious disease
or illness), terrorism, war, changing interest rate levels, the imposition of new or additional tariffs, and regional and global conflicts, that affect large portions of the market. It includes the risk that a particular style of investing may be
underperforming the market generally.

• **Sector Risk:** The Fund may have more risk because it may invest to a significant extent in one or more
particular market sectors, such as the industrials or information technology sector. To the extent it does so, market or economic factors affecting the relevant sector(s) could have a major effect on the value of the Fund's investments.

• **Capitalization Risk:** Investments in small- and mid-capitalization companies may be more volatile than
investments in large-capitalization companies. Investments in small-capitalization companies may have additional risks because these companies have limited product lines, markets or financial resources.

• **Foreign (Non-U.S.) Risk:** Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers may involve more risk than those of
U.S. issuers. These securities may fluctuate more widely in price and may be more difficult to trade due to adverse market, economic, political, regulatory or other factors.

• **Management Risk:** The Fund is subject to management risk because it is an actively-managed investment fund.
The Adviser will apply its investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions for the Fund, but there is no guarantee that its techniques will produce the intended results. Some of these techniques may incorporate, or rely upon,
quantitative models, but there is no guarantee that these models will generate accurate forecasts, reduce risk or otherwise perform as expected.

As with all investments, you may lose money by investing in the Fund.

**BAR CHART AND PERFORMANCE INFORMATION** 

The bar chart and performance information provide an indication of the historical risk of an investment in the Fund by showing:

• how the Fund's performance changed from year to year over ten years; and

• how the Fund's average annual returns for one, five and ten years compare to those of a broad-based
securities market index and an additional index that more closely reflects the types of securities in which the Fund invests.

You may obtain updated performance information on the Fund's website at <u>www.abfunds.com</u> (click on "Investments—Mutual Funds").

The Fund's past performance before and after taxes, of course, does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future.

**Bar Chart** 

The annual returns in the bar chart are for the Fund's Class A shares and do not reflect sales loads. If sales loads were reflected, returns would be less than those shown. Through September 30, 2025, the year-to-date unannualized return for Class A shares was 3.32%.

![LOGO](g74048g27f41.jpg)

During the period shown in the bar chart, the Fund's:

**Best Quarter was up 36.18%, 2nd quarter 2020; and Worst Quarter was down -24.14%, 2nd quarter, 2022.**

\* After-tax returns:

– Are shown for Class A shares only and will vary for the other Classes of shares because these Classes have different expense ratios;

– Are an estimate, which is based on the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates, and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes; actual after-tax returns depend on an individual investor's tax situation and are likely to differ from those shown; and

– Are not relevant to investors who hold Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.
