Amount is less than 0.05%.
(a) Non-income producing security.
(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan. The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at June 30, 2025, were approximately $8,213,000 and $8,033,000, respectively. The Fund received cash collateral of approximately $732,114, which was subsequently invested in Repurchase Agreements and Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Treasury Securities Portfolio - Institutional Class as reported in the Consolidated Portfolio of Investments. The remaining collateral of approximately $7,301,320 was received in the form of U.S. Government obligations, which the Fund cannot sell or re-pledge and accordingly are not reflected in the Consolidated Portfolio of Investments. The Fund has the right under the securities lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand.
(c) Security cannot be offered for public resale without first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and related rules (“restricted security”). Acquisition date represents the day on which an enforceable right to acquire such security is obtained and is presented along with related cost in the security description. The Fund has registration rights for certain restricted securities. Any costs related to such registration are borne by the issuer. The aggregate value of restricted securities and derivative contract (excluding 144A holdings) at June 30, 2025 amounts to approximately $26,739,000 and represents 2.2% of net assets.
(d) Security is valued using significant unobservable inputs and is categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
(e) The Fund invests in the Institutional Class of the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Treasury Securities Portfolio - (the "Liquidity Fund"), an open-end management investment company managed by the Adviser, both directly and as a portion of the securities held as collateral on loaned securities. Advisory fees paid by the Fund are reduced by an amount equal to its pro-rata share of the advisory and administration fees paid by the Fund due to its investment in the Liquidity Fund. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, advisory fees paid were reduced by approximately $40,000 relating to the Fund's investment in the Liquidity Fund.
(f) The Fund is permitted to purchase and sell securities (“cross-trade”) from and to other Morgan Stanley Funds as well as other funds and client accounts for which the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser serves as investment adviser, pursuant to procedures approved by the Directors in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the Act (the “Rule”). As a result of a change in the Rule 2a-5 (aka the “Valuation Rule”), which impacts transactions under Rule 17a-7, a security is an eligible security for purposes of Rule 17a-7 only when there is a “readily available market quotation” for the security. The Fund's Rule 17a-7 policy was amended effective September 8, 2022, to reflect the new requirements of Rule 2a-5. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, the Fund did not engage in any cross-trade transactions.
(g) Securities are available for collateral in connection with purchased options.
(h) At June 30, 2025, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation is approximately $385,106,000 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation is approximately $67,162,000, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of approximately $317,944,000.
(i) Investment is valued based on the underlying stock price and significant unobservable inputs that factor in volatility and discount for lack of marketability and transaction risk and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
(j) Represents an unfunded subscription agreement in a private investment in a public entity. The Fund is committed to purchase 1,076,972 shares at $21.00 per share on the settlement date pursuant to the closing of the business combination between Twenty One Capital, Inc., and Cantor Equity Partners, Inc., a SPAC. The settlement date shown reflects the estimated date based upon the subscription agreement and is subject to change. The transaction will require the approval of the shareholders of both Cantor Equity Partners, Inc., and Twenty One Capital, Inc., and is subject to other customary closing conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals. If these conditions are not met the Fund is no longer obligated to fulfill its commitment to Cantor Equity Partners, Inc., and Twenty One Capital, Inc. The investment is restricted from resale until the settlement date.

Third Quarter Report — June 30, 2025 (unaudited)

Portfolio of Investments (cont'd)

Dynamic Value Portfolio

 

(a) Non-income producing security.
(b) The Fund invests in the Institutional Class of the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Government Portfolio - (the "Liquidity Fund"), an open-end management investment company managed by the Adviser. Advisory fees paid by the Fund are reduced by an amount equal to its pro-rata share of the advisory and administration fees paid by the Fund due to its investment in the Liquidity Fund. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, advisory fees paid were reduced by less than $500 relating to the Fund's investment in the Liquidity Fund.
(c) The Fund is permitted to purchase and sell securities (“cross-trade”) from and to other Morgan Stanley Funds as well as other funds and client accounts for which the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser serves as investment adviser, pursuant to procedures approved by the Directors in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the Act (the “Rule”). As a result of a change in the Rule 2a-5 (aka the “Valuation Rule”), which impacts transactions under Rule 17a-7, a security is an eligible security for purposes of Rule 17a-7 only when there is a “readily available market quotation” for the security. The Fund's Rule 17a-7 policy was amended effective September 8, 2022, to reflect the new requirements of Rule 2a-5. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, the Fund did not engage in any cross-trade transactions.
(d) At June 30, 2025, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation is approximately $594,000 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation is approximately $715,000, resulting in net unrealized depreciation of approximately $121,000.

(a) Security is subject to delayed delivery.
(b) 144A security — Certain conditions for public sale may exist. Unless otherwise noted, these securities are deemed to be liquid.
(c) Floating or variable rate securities: The rates disclosed are as of June 30, 2025. For securities based on a published reference rate and spread, the reference rate and spread are indicated in the description in the Consolidated Portfolio of Investments. Certain variable rate securities may not be based on a published reference rate and spread but are determined by the issuer or agent and are based on current market conditions. These securities do not indicate a reference rate and spread in their description in the Consolidated Portfolio of Investments.
(d) Multi-step — Coupon rate changes in predetermined increments to maturity. Rate disclosed is as of June 30, 2025. Maturity date disclosed is the ultimate maturity date.
(e) Perpetual — One or more securities do not have a predetermined maturity date. Rates for these securities are fixed for a period of time after which they revert to a floating rate. Interest rates in effect are as of June 30, 2025.
(f) When-issued security.
(g) Non-income producing security.
(h) Security is valued using significant unobservable inputs and is categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
(i) Rate shown is the yield to maturity at June 30, 2025.
(j) The Fund invests in the Institutional Class of the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Government Portfolio - (the "Liquidity Fund"), an open-end management investment company managed by the Adviser. Advisory fees paid by the Fund are reduced by an amount equal to its pro-rata share of the advisory and administration fees paid by the Fund due to its investment in the Liquidity Fund. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, advisory fees paid were reduced by approximately $85,000 relating to the Fund's investment in the Liquidity Fund.
(k) The approximate fair value and percentage of net assets, $59,867,000 and 10.5%, respectively, represent the securities that have been fair valued under the fair valuation policy for international investments as described in the Notes to Portfolio of Investments.
(l) Securities are available for collateral in connection with purchase of when-issued securities, securities purchased on a forward commitment basis, open foreign currency forward exchange contracts, futures contracts and swap agreements.

As a result of a change in the Rule 2a-5 (aka the “Valuation Rule”), which impacts transactions under Rule 17a-7, a security is an eligible security for purposes of Rule 17a-7 only when there is a “readily available market quotation” for the security. The Fund's Rule 17a-7 policy was amended effective September 8, 2022, to reflect the new requirements of Rule 2a-5. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, the Fund did not engage in any cross-trade transactions.
(n) At June 30, 2025, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes approximates the aggregate cost for book purposes. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation is approximately $147,283,000 and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation is approximately $15,997,000, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of approximately $131,286,000.

Security Valuation: (1) Fixed income securities may be valued by an outside pricing service/vendor approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”). The pricing service/vendor may employ a pricing model that takes into account, among other things, bids, yield spreads and/or other market data and specific security characteristics. If Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc. (the “Adviser”) or Morgan Stanley Investment Management Limited(“MSIM Limited”) (the “Sub-Adviser”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, determines that the price provided by the outside pricing service/vendor does not reflect the security’s fair value or is unable to provide a price, prices from reputable brokers/dealers may also be utilized. In these circumstances, the value of the security will be the mean of bid and asked prices obtained from reputable brokers/dealers; (2) an equity portfolio security listed or traded on an exchange is valued at its latest reported sales price (or at the exchange official closing price if such exchange reports an official closing price), and if there were no sales on a given day and if there is no official exchange closing price for that day, the security is valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices if such bid and asked prices are available on the relevant exchanges. If only bid prices are available then the latest bid price may be used. Listed equity securities not traded on the valuation date with no reported bid and asked prices available on the exchange are valued at the mean between the current bid and asked prices obtained from one or more reputable brokers/dealers. In cases where a security is traded on more than one exchange, the security is valued on the exchange designated as the primary market; (3) all other equity portfolio securities for which over-the-counter(“OTC”) market quotations are readily available are valued at the latest reported sales price (or at the market official closing price if such market reports an official closing price), and if there was no trading in the security on a given day and if there is no official closing price from relevant markets for that day, the security is valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices if such bid and asked prices are available on the relevant markets. An unlisted equity security that does not trade on the valuation date and for which bid and asked prices from the relevant markets are unavailable is valued at the mean between the current bid and asked prices obtained from one or more reputable brokers/dealers; (4) certain senior collateralized loans (“Senior Loans”) are valued based on quotations received from an independent pricing service; (5) futures are valued at the settlement price on the exchange on which they trade or, if a settlement price is unavailable, at the last sale price on the exchange; (6) OTC swaps may be valued by an outside pricing service approved by the Trustees or quotes from a reputable broker/dealer. Swaps cleared on a clearinghouse or exchange may be valued using the closing price provided by the clearinghouse or exchange; (7) listed options are valued at the last reported sales price on the exchange on which they are listed (or at the exchange official closing price if such exchange reports an official closing price). If an official closing price or last reported sales price is unavailable, the listed option should be fair valued at the mean between its latest bid and ask prices. Unlisted options are valued at the mean between their latest bid and ask prices from a reputable broker/dealer or valued by a pricing service/vendor; (8) when market quotations are not readily available, as defined by Rule 2a-5 under the Act, including circumstances under which the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser determines that the closing price, last sale price or the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices are not reflective of a security’s market value, portfolio securities are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under procedures approved by and under the general supervision of the Trustees. Occasionally, developments affecting the closing prices of securities and other assets may occur between the times at which valuations of such securities are determined (that is, close of the foreign market on which the securities trade) and the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). If developments occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such securities, such valuations may be adjusted to reflect the estimated fair value of such securities as of the close of the NYSE, as determined in good faith by the Trustees or by the Adviser using a pricing service and/or procedures approved by the Trustees; (9) foreign exchange transactions (“spot contracts”) and foreign exchange forward contracts (“forward contracts”) are valued daily using an independent pricing vendor at the spot and forward rates, respectively, as of the close of the NYSE; (10) PIPE investments may be valued based on the underlying stock price less a discount until the commitment is fulfilled and shares are registered; and (11) investments in mutual funds, including the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds, are valued at the net asset value (“NAV”) as of the close of each business day.

 

In connection with Rule 2a-5 of the Act, the Trustees have designated the Trust’s Adviser as its valuation designee. The valuation designee has responsibility for determining fair value and to make the actual calculations pursuant to the fair valuation methodologies previously approved by the Trustees. Under procedures approved by the Trustees, the Trust’s Adviser, as valuation designee, has formed a Valuation Committee whose members are approved by the Trustees. The Valuation Committee provides administration and oversight of the Trust’s valuation policies and procedures, which are reviewed at least annually by the Trustees. These procedures allow the Trust to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

Fair Value Measurement: Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy to distinguish between (1) inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs); and (2) inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in valuing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs) and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. The inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

  Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
     
  Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
     
  Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors considered in making this determination may include, but are not limited to, information obtained by contacting the issuer, analysts, or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), analysis of the issuer’s financial statements or other available documents and, if necessary, available information concerning other securities in similar circumstances.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each security.

           Perpetual Growth Rate  3.5%   Increase
        Market Comparable Companies  Enterprise Value/Revenue  14.8x   Increase
           Discount for Lack of Marketability  15.0%   Decrease
PIPE  $(918)    Market Implied  Discount for Lack of Marketability and Transaction Risk  27.50%   Decrease

 

* Represents the expected directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase in the corresponding input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Common Stock   $17     Market Comparable Companies   Enterprise Value/Revenue   0.3x     Increase
              Discount for Lack of Marketability   30.0%     Decrease

 

* Amount is indicative of the weighted average.
** Represents the expected directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase in the corresponding input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.
