NOTES
TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May
31, 2025 (Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION
The
GoodHaven Funds Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)
as a non-diversified, open-end investment management company. The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment
company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification
Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The Fund commenced operations on April 8, 2011.
The
Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital.
NOTE
2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. These policies are in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
A.
|
Security Valuation.
All equity securities, which may include Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”), Business Development Companies (“BDCs”)
and Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”), that are traded on U.S. national or foreign securities exchanges are valued at the
last reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded or the exchange’s official closing price, if
applicable. If, on a particular day, an exchange- traded security does not trade, then the mean between the most recent quoted bid and
asked prices will be used. All equity securities, which may include REITs, BDCs and MLPs, that are not traded on a listed exchange are
valued at the last sale price in the over-the-counter market. If a non- exchange traded security does not trade on a particular day, then
the mean between the last quoted closing bid and asked price will be used.
|
Debt
securities are valued by using the evaluated mean price supplied by an approved independent pricing service. The independent pricing service
may use various valuation methodologies, including matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and
dealer quotations. These models generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon,
maturity, ratings and general market conditions.
Exchange
traded options are valued at the composite price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes (“NBBO”). NBBO consists of
the highest bid price and lowest ask price across any of the exchanges on which an option is quoted, thus providing a view across the
entire U.S. options marketplace. Composite option pricing calculates the mean of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across the
exchanges where the option is traded. If a composite price is not available, then the closing price will be used.
Any
securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good
faith by the Adviser as “valuation designee” of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) pursuant to policies and procedures
adopted pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. When a security is “fair valued,” consideration is given to the facts
and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, including a review of various factors set forth in the pricing procedures adopted
by the Board. Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard exists for determining fair value. Different
funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security. The use of fair value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset
value of its shares to differ significantly from the net asset value that would be calculated without regard to such considerations.
As
described above, the Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes
a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:
Level 1 –
|
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access. |
Level 2 –
|
Observable inputs other than quoted prices
included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices
for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield
curves, default rates and similar data. |
TABLE OF CONTENTS
GOODHAVEN
FUND
NOTES
TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May
31, 2025 (Unaudited)(Continued)
Level 3 –
|
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability,
to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market
participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The
availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example,
the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics
particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the
market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value
is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The
inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes,
the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest
level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The
following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of May 31, 2025. See the Schedule of Investments
for the industry and security type breakouts.

The
Fund has adopted financial reporting rules and regulations that require enhanced disclosure regarding derivatives and hedging activity
intending to improve financial reporting of derivative instruments by enabling investors to understand how and why an entity uses derivatives,
how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position.
The
Fund may invest, at the time of purchase, up to 10% of the Fund’s net assets in options, which are a type of derivative and employ
specialized trading techniques such as options trading to increase the Fund’s exposure to certain selected securities. The Fund
may employ these techniques as hedging tools as well as speculatively to enhance returns. Other than when used for hedging, these techniques
may be riskier than many investment strategies and may result in greater volatility for the Fund, particularly in periods of market declines.
As a hedging tool, options may help cushion the impact of market declines, but may reduce the Fund’s participation in a market advance.
The
Fund did not hold options contracts as of May 31, 2025.

B.
|
Foreign Currency.
Foreign currency amounts, other than the cost of investments, are translated into U.S. dollar values based upon the spot exchange
rate prior to the close of regular trading. The cost of investments is translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates the
portfolio securities were acquired. The Fund includes foreign exchange gains and losses from dividends receivable and other foreign currency
denominated payables and receivables in realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency. The Fund does not isolate
that portion of realized gain (loss) or unrealized gain (loss) on investments resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments
from fluctuations arising from changes in the market price of securities for financial reporting purposes. Fluctuations in foreign exchange
rates on investments are thus included with net realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency and with net unrealized gain
(loss) on investments and foreign currency. |
C.
|
Federal Income
Taxes. The Fund has elected to be taxed as a “regulated investment company” and intends to distribute substantially
all taxable income to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made. |
In
order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, the Fund intends to declare each year as dividends
in each calendar year at least 98.0% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and at least 98.2% of its net realized
capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended November 30) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years.
Net
investment losses incurred after December 31, and within the taxable year may be deferred and are deemed to arise on the first business
day of the Fund’s next taxable year. As of the Fund’s prior fiscal year-ended November 30, 2024, the Fund did not have any
capital loss carryovers.
As
of May 31, 2025, the Fund did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained
by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three years. The Fund identifies
their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the State of Delaware. As of May 31, 2025, the Fund was not aware of any tax positions
for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially.
D.
|
Security Transactions
and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales
of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized
over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends
from REITs and MLPs generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and may include return of capital. Interest income is recorded
on an accrual basis. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding
taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Trust’s understanding of the applicable country’s
tax rules and rates. |
E.
|
Distributions
to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains for the Fund normally are declared
and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex- dividend date. |
F.
|
Use of Estimates.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
G.
|
Share Valuation.
The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities
held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets, minus all liabilities by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to
the nearest cent. The Fund’s shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. The
offering and redemption price per share for the Fund is equal to the Fund’s net asset value per share. Prior to November 1, 2023,
the Fund charged a 2.00% redemption fee on shares held less than 60 days. |

H.
|
Guarantees
and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general
indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that
may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.
|
I.
|
Illiquid Securities.
Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a Board approved Liquidity Risk management Program (“LRMP”)
that requires, among other things, that the Fund limits its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. An
illiquid investment is any security which may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven
calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. |
J.
|
Options Contracts.
When the Fund purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Fund is recorded as an investment and is subsequently
adjusted to the current value of the option purchased. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Fund enters into
a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a call option is exercised, the cost of the security acquired is increased
by the premium paid for the call. If a put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and
the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. Written and purchased options are non-income producing securities.
|
When
the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted
to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund
on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing
purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or, if the premium is less that the amount
paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from
the sale of the underlying security or currency in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised,
the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. The Fund as writer of an option bears the market risk of an
unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.

New Accounting
Pronouncement. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment
Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through
enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, allowing financial statement users to better understand the components of a segment’s
profit or loss and assess potential future cash flows for each reportable segment and the entity as a whole. The amendments expand a public
entity’s segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating
decision maker, clarifying when an entity may report one or more additional measures to assess segment performance, requiring enhanced
interim disclosures and providing new disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, among other new disclosure
requirements. |
Management
has evaluated the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures with respect
to the financial statements and disclosures and determined there is no material impact for the Fund. The Fund operates as a single segment
entity. The Fund’s income, expenses, assets, and performance are regularly monitored and assessed by the Investment Advisor, who
serves as the chief operating decision maker, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

NOTE
6 – OTHER MATTERS
Local,
state, regional, national, or global factors or events could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and could result
in decreases to the Fund’s net asset value. Political, geopolitical, economic, social, natural and other factors or events, including
war (e.g., Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Israeli-Palestinian conflict), military conflict,
terrorism, trade disputes, tariff arrangements, sanctions, cybersecurity attacks, government shutdowns, market closures, recessions, natural
and environmental disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises and related events and governments’ reactions to
such events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market volatility and
other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. The extent and duration of such factors and events and resulting market
disruptions cannot be predicted. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on the Fund and its investments.
Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increase the likelihood that events
or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. General market risk may
affect a single issuer, industry, sector of the economy or the market as a whole.
NOTE
7 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In
preparing these financial statements, the Fund has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the
date the financial statement were issued. The Fund has determined that there were no subsequent events that would need to be disclosed
in the Fund’s financial statements.
