Fair Value Measurements

The Fund utilizes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 includes unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access. Level 2 includes 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 securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. Level 3 includes 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 inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

The following table summarizes valuation of the Fund’s investments under the fair value hierarchy levels as of April 30, 2026.

 

   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total 
Asset Valuation Inputs                    
Corporate Bonds  $   $24,922,185   $   $24,922,185 
Foreign Bonds       4,091,265        4,091,265 
Common Stock           6,785    6,785 
Term Loan           1,637    1,637 
Total  $   $29,013,450   $8,422   $29,021,872 

 

Some of the Fund’s investments that were categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.

 

Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the rollforward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the period ended April 30, 2026.
