The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.

Running Oak Efficient Growth ETF (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified series of Strategic Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust, a Delaware Statutory Trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Running Oak Capital, LLC (the “Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser to the Fund. The inception date of the Fund was June 7, 2023. The Fund is in an actively managed exchanged-traded fund (“ETF”). The offering of the Fund’s shares (“Shares”) is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund is an investment company, and accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies.

Segment Reporting – An operating segment is defined as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The CODM is comprised of the portfolio manager and Chief Financial Officer of the Trust. The Fund operates as a single operating segment. The Fund’s income, expenses, assets, changes in net assets resulting from operations and performance are regularly monitored and assessed as a whole by the CODM responsible for oversight functions of the Fund, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

Accounting Pronouncement – The Fund adopted the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements and modifies or eliminates certain existing disclosure provisions. The amendments in this ASU are intended to address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Fund’s adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

Securities valuation – The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Fund is calculated each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Fund’s NAV per share is computed by dividing the Fund’s net assets by the number of shares outstanding. When calculating the NAV of the Fund’s shares, securities held by the Fund are valued at market quotations when reliable market quotations are readily available. Exchange traded securities and instruments (including equity securities, depositary receipts, and ETFs) are generally valued at the last reported sale price on the principal exchange on which such securities are traded (at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price for NASDAQ listed securities), as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the day the securities are being valued, or, if there are no sales, at the mean of the most recent bid and ask prices. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) securities and instruments not traded on an exchange are generally valued at the last traded price. In the absence of a recorded transaction sale price or if the last sale price is

unavailable, OTC securities are valued at the mean between last bid and ask, as quoted. If an ask price for an OTC security is unavailable, the last bid price is used. Such valuations would typically be categorized as Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy described below.

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has approved valuation procedures for the Fund (the “Valuation Procedures”), which will be used for determining fair value of any Fund investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The valuation of the Fund’s investments is performed in accordance with the principles found in Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act and in conjunction with FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The Board has designated the Adviser as the valuation designee of the Fund. As valuation designee, the Adviser performs the fair value determination relating to any and all Fund investments, subject to the conditions and oversight requirements described in the Valuation Procedures. The Adviser may consult with representatives from outside legal counsel or other third-party consultants in their discussions and deliberations. Fair valuations may be used in a variety of circumstances, including, but not limited to, situations when the value of a security has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the market on which such security is principally traded (such as a corporate action or other news that may materially affect the price of such security) or trading in such security has been suspended or halted. Such valuations would typically be categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy described below. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments, and it is possible that a fair value determination for a security is materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of such security.

The Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund (observable inputs) and (2) the Fund’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, 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).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of February 28, 2026:

The Fund did not hold any Level 2 or Level 3 securities during the period.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. Distributable net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are considered either temporary (e.g., deferred losses) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Monthly distributions in excess of ordinary taxable income are treated as returns of capital. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Security Transactions and Related Income – Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.

Federal Income Taxes – The Fund complies with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, including the requirement to distribute all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income tax has been provided.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax position and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years ended August 31, 2023 to August 31, 2025, or expected to be taken in the Fund’s August 31, 2026, year-end tax returns. The Fund identified its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. federal and foreign jurisdictions where the Fund makes significant investments. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expenses, in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.

Foreign Taxes – The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes related to foreign income received (a portion of which may be reclaimable), capital gains on the sale of securities, and certain foreign currency transactions. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Fund invests.

Foreign Currency – The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency, and income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars using the prevailing exchange rate at the London market close. Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at the contractual currency rates established at the approximate time of the trade. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments shown in the Statement of Operations. For securities which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, realized and unrealized gain or loss on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

The Fund reports net realized foreign exchange gains or losses that arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on foreign currency transactions, and the differences between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or

paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Expenses – Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the Fund in the Trust.

Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. 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 risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities appears to be remote.

For the six months ended February 28, 2026, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities amounted to $34,348,751 and $35,121,133, respectively, for the Fund.

For the six months ended February 28, 2026, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities for in-kind transactions amounted to $81,481,552 and $74,862,852, respectively, for the Fund.

The business activities of the Fund are overseen by the Board, which is responsible for the overall management of the Fund. The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment advisor pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with the Trust on behalf of the Fund (the “Advisory Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, directs the daily operations of the Fund and supervises the performance of administrative and professional services provided by others. As compensation for its services and the related expenses borne by the Adviser, the Fund pays the Adviser a unitary advisory fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.58% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. During the six months ended February 28, 2026, the Fund paid $1,078,091 in advisory fees.

Advisory fees are accrued daily and paid monthly. The advisory fee is a unitary fee, whereby the Adviser has agreed to pay substantially all expenses of the Fund, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, sub-fund administration, legal, audit and other services. The Adviser is not responsible for, and the Fund will bear the cost of the fees paid to the Adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, interest charges on any borrowings, dividends and other expenses on securities sold short, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, and distribution fees and expenses paid by the Trust under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.

Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Distributor) serves as the distributor of Creation Units (as defined below) for the Fund. Shares are continuously offered for sale by the Trust through the Distributor only

in Creation Units, as described under “Organization” above. The Distributor does not maintain a secondary market in Shares. The Distributor is a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). Fees for these services are paid by the Adviser under the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

The Board has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. In accordance with the Plan, the Fund is authorized to pay an amount up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets each year for certain distribution-related activities and shareholder services. No Rule 12b-1 fees are currently paid by the Fund, and there are no plans to impose these fees. However, in the event Rule 12b-1 fees are charged in the future, because the fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than certain other types of sales charges.

Strategic Services LLC (“Strategic Services”), serves as administrator for the Fund pursuant to a Fund Administration agreement between the Trust and Strategic Services. Fees for these services are paid by the Adviser under the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

Prior to March 28, 2025, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC dba U.S. Bank Global Fund Services (“Fund Services”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, served as sub-administrator to the Fund pursuant to a Sub-Administration Servicing Agreement between Strategic Services and Fund Services on behalf of the Trust. Strategic Services pays the sub-administration fees pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Administration Servicing Agreement.

Prior to March 28, 2025, Fund Services served as the transfer agent and fund accountant for the Fund. Pursuant to a Transfer Agent Servicing Agreement and a Fund Accounting Servicing Agreement, each between the Trust and Fund Services, Fund Services provides the Trust with transfer agency and accounting services, including portfolio accounting services, tax accounting services and furnishing financial reports. U.S. Bank, N.A. (“U.S. Bank”), an affiliate of Fund services, served as the Fund’s custodian (the “Custodian”). Fees payable to Fund Services (as transfer agent and fund accountant) and the Custodian under these agreements are paid by the Adviser under the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

Effective March 28, 2025, Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“Ultimus”) serves as sub-administrator to the Fund pursuant to an ETF Sub-Administration Agreement between Strategic Services and Ultimus on behalf of the Trust. Strategic Services pays the sub-administration fees pursuant to the terms of this agreement. Ultimus serves as fund accountant for the Fund, pursuant to an ETF Master Services Agreement between the Trust and Ultimus. Fees payable to Ultimus as fund accountant are paid by the Adviser under the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

Effective March 28, 2025, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) serves as the custodian and transfer agent for the Fund. Pursuant to a Custody Agreement and Transfer Agency and Service Agreement between the Trust and State Street, State Street provides the Trust with custodian and transfer agency services. Fees payable to State Street (as custodian and transfer agent) are paid by the Adviser under the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

Pursuant to a principal financial officer services agreement between the Trust and QRF Business Solutions, Jim Niemie serves as Treasurer and Principal Financial Officer of the Trust.

Prior to October 3, 2024, pursuant to an agreement between the Trust and Tidal ETF Services, LLC (“Tidal”), an employee of Tidal served as Chief Compliance Officer and Anti-Money Laundering

Compliance Officer of the Trust. Effective October 3, 2024, Gregory Shinnick was appointed to serve as Trust Chief Compliance Officer and Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Officer, pursuant to a compliance services agreement between the Trust and Strategic Services LLC.

Certain officers and a Trustee of the Trust are also officers or employees of Strategic Services.

Shares are not individually redeemable and may be redeemed by the Fund at NAV only in large blocks known as “Creation Units.” Shares are created and redeemed by the Fund only in Creation Unit size aggregations of 25,000 shares. Only Authorized Participants are permitted to purchase or redeem Creation Units from the Fund. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company participant and, in each case, must have executed an Authorized Participant Agreement with the distributor. Such transactions are generally permitted on an in-kind basis, with a balancing cash component to equate the transaction to the NAV per share of the Fund on the transaction date. Cash may be substituted equivalent to the value of certain securities generally when they are not available in sufficient quantity for delivery, not eligible for trading by the Authorized Participant, or as a result of other market circumstances. In addition, the Fund may impose transaction fees on purchases and redemptions of Fund shares to cover the custodial and other costs incurred by the Fund in effecting trades. A fixed fee payable to the custodian may be imposed on each creation and redemption transaction regardless of the number of Creation Units involved in the transaction (“Fixed Fee”). Purchases and redemptions of Creation Units for cash or involving cash-in-lieu are required to pay an additional variable charge to compensate the Fund and its ongoing shareholders for brokerage and market impact expenses relating to Creation Unit transactions (“Variable Charge,” and together with the Fixed Fee, the “Transaction Fees”). Transaction Fees may be used to cover the custodial and other costs incurred by the Fund.

The Transaction Fees for the Fund are listed in the table below:

* $300 prior to March 28, 2025.

** The maximum Transaction Fee may be up to 2.00% of the amount invested.

The identified cost of investments in securities owned by the Fund for federal income tax purposes and its respective gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation at February 28, 2026, were as follows:

The tax character of fund distributions paid for the years ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024 was as follows:

As of August 31, 2025, the components of accumulated earnings/ (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

The difference between book basis and tax basis undistributed net investment income/(loss), accumulated net realized gain/(loss), and unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, tax adjustments for realized gain/loss on in-kind redemptions and C-Corporation return of capital distributions.

Capital losses incurred after October 31 within the fiscal year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. The Fund incurred and elected to defer such capital losses of $2,984,133.

At August 31, 2025, the Fund had capital loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes available to offset future capital gains as follows:

Permanent book and tax differences, primarily attributable to tax adjustments for realized gain (loss) on in-kind redemptions resulted in reclassifications for the Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, as follows:

Subsequent events after the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has determined that no events or transactions occurred requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.
