1. ORGANIZATION

 

The LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF, LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF, and LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF (each, a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) are each a series of shares of beneficial interest of the Two Roads Shared Trust (the “Trust”), a statutory trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 8, 2012, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as diversified, open-end management investment companies. The LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF seek to generate long-term capital growth. The LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the AlphaFactor® US Core Equity Index. The LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF seeks current income. The LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF commenced operations on October 1, 2018. The LeaderShares®AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF commenced operations on October 26, 2020. The LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF commenced operations on June 28, 2021.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies,” including FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08.

 

Segment Reporting – The Funds have adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (“Topic 280”) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). Adoption of the standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Funds’ financial position or the results of its operations. 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 Funds operate as a single operating segment. The Funds’ 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 Funds, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

Security Valuation – Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. In the absence of a sale, such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the day of valuation. Debt securities not traded on an exchange may be valued at prices supplied by a pricing agent(s) based on broker or dealer supplied valuations or matrix pricing, a method of valuing securities by reference to the value of other securities with similar characteristics, such as rating, interest rate and maturity. The independent pricing service does not distinguish between smaller-sized bond positions known as “odd lots” and larger institutional-sized bond positions known as “round lots”. The Funds may fair value a particular bond if the adviser does not believe that the round lot value provided by the independent pricing service reflects fair value of the Funds’ holding. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost (which approximates fair value). Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.

 

Valuation of Underlying Funds – The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end or closed-end investment companies (the “Underlying Funds”). The Underlying Funds value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value to the methods established by the board of directors of the Underlying Funds.

 

Open-end funds are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such investment companies. The shares of many exchange-traded funds and closed-end investment companies, after their initial public offering, frequently trade at a price per share, which is different than the net asset value per share. The difference represents a market premium or market discount of such shares. There can be no assurances that the market discount or premium on shares of any closed-end investment company purchased by the Funds will not change.

 

Exchange-Traded Funds – The Funds may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are a type of open-end fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and may be actively traded or represent a fixed portfolio of securities designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track, although the lack of liquidity on an ETF could result in it being more volatile. Each ETF is subject to specific risks, depending on the nature of the ETF. Additionally, ETFs have fees and expenses that reduce their value.

 

The Funds may hold securities, such as private investments, interests in commodity pools, other non-traded securities or temporarily illiquid securities, for which market quotations are not readily available or are determined to be unreliable. These securities are valued using the “fair value” procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”). The Board has appointed the Funds’ Adviser as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) for all fair value determinations and responsibilities, other than overseeing pricing service providers used by any series of the Trust, including the Funds.

 

 

LeaderShares® ETFs
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
April 30, 2026

 

This designation is subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements designed to facilitate the Board’s ability effectively to oversee the fair value determinations. The Board may also enlist third party consultants such a valuation specialist at a public accounting firm, valuation consultant or financial officer of a security issuer on an as-needed basis to assist the Valuation Designee in determining a security-specific fair value. The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving fair value methodologies utilized by the Valuation Designee, approval of which shall be based upon whether the Valuation Designee followed the valuation procedures approved by the Board.

 

Fair Valuation Process – The applicable investments are valued by the Valuation Designee pursuant to valuation procedures approved by the Board. For example, fair value determinations are required for the following securities: (i) securities for which market quotations are insufficient or not readily available on a particular business day (including securities for which there is a short and temporary lapse in the provision of a price by the regular pricing source); (ii) securities for which, in the judgment of the Valuation Designee, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument; factors which may cause the Valuation Designee to make such a judgment include, but are not limited to, the following: only a bid price or an asked price is available; the spread between bid and asked prices is substantial; the frequency of sales; the thinness of the market; the size of reported trades; and actions of the securities markets, such as the suspension or limitation of trading; (iii) securities determined to be illiquid; and (iv) securities with respect to which an event that affects the value thereof has occurred (a “significant event”) since the closing prices were established on the principal exchange on which they are traded, but prior to each Fund’s calculation of its net asset value. Specifically, interests in commodity pools or managed futures pools are valued on a daily basis by reference to the closing market prices of each futures contract or other asset held by a pool, as adjusted for pool expenses. Restricted or illiquid securities, such as private investments or non-traded securities are valued based upon the current bid for the security from two or more independent dealers or other parties reasonably familiar with the facts and circumstances of the security (who should take into consideration all relevant factors as may be appropriate under the circumstances). If a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties is unavailable, the Valuation Designee shall determine the fair value of such security using the following factors: (i) the type of security; (ii) the cost at date of purchase; (iii) the size and nature of the Fund’s holdings; (iv) the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase and subsequent thereto; (v) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security; (vi) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security and the existence of any registration rights; (vii) how the yield of the security compares to similar securities of companies of similar or equal creditworthiness; (viii) the level of recent trades of similar or comparable securities; (ix) the liquidity characteristics of the security; (x) current market conditions; and (xi) the market value of any securities into which the security is convertible or exchangeable.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)

The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of all of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:

 

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

 

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 Funds did not hold any Level 3 securities during the period.

 

* See Schedule of Investments for industry classification.

 

Security Transactions and Related Income – Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized on securities purchased over the lives of the respective securities. 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. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

 

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – For the, LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF and LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF, dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. For the LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF, dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid monthly. 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. Quarterly 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.

 

 

LeaderShares® ETFs
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)

Cash – The Funds consider their investments in an FDIC insured interest bearing savings account to be cash. The Funds maintain cash balances, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Funds maintain these balances with a high quality financial institution.

 

Option Transactions – The Funds are subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objective and may purchase or sell options to help hedge against risk. When a Fund writes put and call options, an amount equal to the premium received is included in the statement of assets and liability as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or if a Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a written call option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized for the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the premium originally received. As writer of an option, the Funds have no control over whether the option will be exercised and, as a result, retain the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.

 

Put options are purchased to hedge against a decline in the value of securities held in the Funds’ portfolio. If such a decline occurs, the put options will permit the Funds to sell the securities underlying such options at the exercise price, or to close out the options at a profit. The premium paid for a put or call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by the Funds upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises or declines sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to the Funds. In addition, in the event that the price of the security in connection with which an option was purchased moves in a direction favorable to the Funds, the benefits realized by the Funds as a result of such favorable movement will be reduced by the amount of the premium paid for the option and related transaction costs. Written and purchased options are non-income producing securities. With purchased options, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Funds since these options are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded options, guarantees against a possible default. The average month end notional value of the purchased options the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF Fund invested in during the six months ended April 30, 2026, was $50,592,500. The LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF, and LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF did not invest in option contracts during the six months ended April 30, 2026.

 

For the six months ended April 30, 2026, the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF had net realized loss of $3,728,571 and net unrealized appreciation of $3,350,781 on purchased options subject to equity price risk. The realized loss and unrealized appreciation amounts are included in the line items marked “Net realized gain (loss) on investments” and “Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments” on the Statements of Operations.

Federal Income Taxes – It is each Fund’s policy to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income and net realized gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been recorded.

 

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions 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 October 31, 2023, to October 31, 2025, or expected to be taken in the Funds’ October 31, 2026, year-end tax returns. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, Ohio and foreign jurisdictions where the Funds make significant investments; however the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably expected that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

 

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 Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities appears to be remote.

4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

 

Redwood Investment Management, LLC serves as the Funds’ Investment Adviser (the “Adviser”). Pursuant to investment advisory agreement between the Trust and the Adviser with respect to the Funds, the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, directs the daily operations of the Funds 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 LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF, LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF, and LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF pay the Adviser a unitary management fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.99%, 0.75% and 0.75%, respectively, of each Funds’ average daily net assets. For the six months ended April 30, 2026, the Funds incurred the following advisory fees:

 

    Investment Advisory Fees  
LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF   $ 330,116  
LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF     412,080  
LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF     156,422  

 

 

LeaderShares® ETFs
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
April 30, 2026

 

The Adviser’s unitary management fee is designed to pay the Funds’ expenses and to compensate the Adviser for providing services for the Funds. Out of the unitary management fee, the Adviser pays substantially all expenses of the Funds, including the costs of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and Independent Trustees’ fees, but not payments under the Funds’ 12b-1 plan, brokerage fees and commissions, taxes, borrowing costs (such as dividend expense on securities sold short and interest), fees and expenses of other investment companies in which the Funds may invest, and extraordinary or non-recurring expenses (including litigation to which the Trust or the Funds may be a party and indemnification of the Trustees and officers with respect thereto). The Adviser, and not the Funds’ shareholders, would benefit from any reduction in fees paid for third-party services, including reductions based on increases in net assets.

 

The Funds have adopted a distribution and service plan (“Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, the Funds are authorized to pay distribution fees to the distributor and other firms that provide distribution and shareholder services (“Service Providers”). If a Service Provider provides these services, the Funds may pay fees at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of average daily net assets, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. No distribution or service fees are currently paid by the Funds, and there are no current plans to impose these fees. In the event Rule 12b-1 fees were charged, over time they would increase the cost of an investment in the Funds. Northern Lights Distributors, LLC, the Funds’ distributor (the “Distributor”), its affiliates, and the Funds’ Adviser or its affiliates may, at their own expense and out of their own legitimate profits, provide additional cash payments to financial intermediaries who sell shares of the Funds, including affiliates of the Adviser.

 

Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (“UFS”) UFS, an affiliate of the Distributor, provides administration and fund accounting services to the Funds. Pursuant to a separate servicing agreement with UFS, the Adviser on behalf of the Funds pay UFS customary fees for providing administration and fund accounting services to the Funds. Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of UFS, and are not paid any fees directly by the Funds for serving in such capacities.

 

Northern Lights Compliance Services, LLC (“NLCS”) – NLCS, an affiliate of UFS and the Distributor, provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Trust, as well as related compliance services, pursuant to a consulting agreement between NLCS and the Funds. Under the terms of such agreement, NLCS receives customary fees from the Adviser on behalf of the Funds. The Chief Compliance Officer of the Trust is also an officer of NLCS, and is not paid any fees directly by the Adviser or Funds for serving in such capacity.

 

Blu Giant, LLC (“Blu Giant”) – Blu Giant, an affiliate of UFS and the Distributor, provides EDGAR conversion and filing services as well as print management services for the Funds on an ad-hoc basis. For the provision of these services, Blu Giant receives customary fees from the Adviser on behalf of the Funds.

 

Each Trustee who is not affiliated with the Trust or an adviser to a fund within the Trust receives quarterly fees. For the six months ended April 30, 2026, the Trustees received fees in the amount of $26,400 with respect to the Funds, paid by the Adviser out of the unitary fee.

LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF     3,187,125                         3,187,125  

 

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

 

    Undistributed     Undistributed     Post October Loss     Capital Loss     Other     Unrealized     Total

LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF     562,236                   (64,828,793 )           7,915,473       (56,351,084 )

The difference between book basis and tax basis undistributed net investment income, accumulated net realized gains and unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, adjustments for debt modification, adjustments for accrued dividend payable and adjustments for C-Corps.

LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF     3,034,206       3,709,526       6,743,732

Fund   Capital     Earnings (Losses)  
LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF   $ 17,496,672     $ (17,496,672 )

LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF     (227,642 )     227,642  

 

7. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

 

Shares are not individually redeemable and may be redeemed by the Funds at net asset value (“NAV”) only in large blocks known as “Creation Units.” Shares are created and redeemed by the Funds only in Creation Unit size aggregations of 25,000 shares. Only Authorized Participants are permitted to purchase or redeem Creation Units from the Funds. 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 a 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 Funds 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 Funds may impose transaction fees on purchases and redemptions of Funds shares to cover the custodial and other costs incurred by the Funds in effecting trades. A fixed fee payable to the custodian is 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 Funds 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”). Transactions in capital shares for the Funds are disclosed in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

8. PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

 

The Funds’ investments in securities and financial instruments expose it to various risks, certain of which are discussed below. Each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information include further information regarding the risks associated with each Fund’s investments. The Risks associated with the Funds’ investments include, but are not limited to:

 

LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF: active trading risk, authorized participant concentration risk, cash positions risk, cybersecurity risk, equity risk, ETF structure risks, fluctuation of net asset value risk, focus risk, gap risk, investment companies risk, management risk, market capitalization risk, market events risk, market risk, money market instrument risk, quantitative investing risk, rules-based strategy risk, sector risk, tactical overlay strategy risk, underlying funds risk, U.S. Government securities risk, and volatility risk.

LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF: active trading risk, asset allocation risk, authorized participant concentration risk, bank loan risk, cash positions risk, convertible securities risk, credit risk, credit spread risk, currency risk, cybersecurity risk, emerging markets risk, ETF structure risk, equity risk, fixed income securities risk, fluctuation of net asset value risk, foreign (non-U.S.) investments risk, gap risk, high yield fixed income securities (“Junk Bond”) risk, index risk, investment companies risk, issuer-specific risk, leveraging risk, liquidity risk, management risk, market events risk, market risk, model risk, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities risk, odd lot pricing risk, portfolio turnover risk, prepayment and extension risk, regulatory risk, sector risk, swap risk, underlying funds risk, U.S. government securities risk, valuation risk, variable or floating rate securities risk, volatility risk, and yield curve risk.

 

 

LeaderShares® ETFs
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)

ETF Structure Risks. Each Fund is structured as an ETF and as a result is subject to special risks. Shares are not individually redeemable and may be redeemed by the Fund at NAV only in large blocks known as “Creation Units.”

 

Trading in shares on the exchange on which a Fund is listed may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the exchange, make trading in shares inadvisable, such as extraordinary market volatility. There can be no assurance that shares will continue to meet the listing requirements of the exchange. An active trading market for the Fund’s shares may not be developed or maintained. If the Fund’s shares are traded outside a collateralized settlement system, the number of financial institutions that can act as authorized participants that can post collateral on an agency basis is limited, which may limit the market for the Fund’s shares.

 

The market prices of shares will fluctuate in response to changes in NAV and supply and demand for shares and will include a “bid-ask spread” charged by the exchange specialists, market makers or other participants that trade the particular security. There may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly, particularly during times of market stress, with the result that investors may pay significantly more or significantly less for Fund shares than the Fund’s NAV, which is reflected in the bid and ask price for Fund shares or in the closing price. If a shareholder purchases shares at a time when the market price is at a premium to the NAV or sells shares at a time when the market price is at a discount to NAV, the shareholder may sustain losses if the shares are sold at a price that is less than the price paid by the shareholder for the shares. When all or a portion of an ETFs underlying securities trade in a market that is closed when the market for the Fund’s shares is open, there may be changes from the last quote of the closed market and the quote from the Fund’s domestic trading day, which could lead to differences between the market value of the Fund’s shares and the Fund’s NAV. In stressed market conditions, the market for the Fund’s shares may become less liquid in response to the deteriorating liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Fund’s shares may, in turn, lead to differences between the market value of the Fund’s shares and the Fund’s NAV.

 

Equity Risk. Equity securities are susceptible to general market fluctuations, volatile increases and decreases in value as market confidence in and perceptions of their issuers change and unexpected trading activity among retail investors. Factors that may influence the price of equity securities include developments affecting a specific company or industry, or the changing economic, political or market conditions.

 

Fluctuation of Net Asset Value Risk. The NAV of the Funds’ shares will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s holdings. The market prices of the shares will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV as well as the relative supply of and demand for the shares on the exchange. The Adviser cannot predict whether the shares will trade below, at or above their NAV. Price differences may be due, in large part, to the fact that supply and demand forces at work in the secondary trading market for the shares will be closely related to, but not identical to, the same forces influencing the prices of the Funds’ holdings trading individually or in the aggregate at any point in time. Unlike conventional ETFs, LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF, and LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF are not index funds. The Funds are actively managed and do not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. Actively managed ETFs have a limited trading history and, therefore, there can be no assurance as to whether and/or the extent to which the shares will trade at premiums

or discounts to NAV.

 

Index Tracking Error Risk. As with all index funds, the performance of the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF and the index may differ from each other for a variety of reasons. For example, the Fund incurs operating expenses and portfolio transaction costs not incurred by the index. In addition, the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF may not be fully invested in the securities of the index at all times, may deviate from the relative weightings of the index or may hold securities not included in the index. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions.

 

Market Risk. Overall market risk may affect the value of individual instruments in which the Funds invest. The Funds are subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions and other factors, which may negatively affect the Funds’ performance. Factors such as domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) economic growth and market conditions, real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, recessions, inflation, changes in interest rate levels, supply chain disruptions, sanctions, tariffs, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats, lack of liquidity in the bond or other markets, volatility in the securities markets, adverse investor sentiment and political events affect the securities markets. U.S. and foreign stock markets have experienced periods of substantial price volatility in the past and may do so again in the future. Securities markets also may experience long periods of decline in value. A change in financial condition or other event affecting a single issuer or market may adversely impact securities markets as a whole. The value of assets or income from an investment may be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the real value of the Funds’ assets can decline as can the value of the Funds’ distributions. When the value of the Funds’ investments goes down, your investment in the Funds decreases in value and you could lose money.

 

Local, state, regional, national or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Funds and its investments and could result in decreases to the Fund’s net asset values. Political, geopolitical, natural and other events, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market closures, 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. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on the Funds and their investments. For example, a widespread health crisis such as a global pandemic could cause substantial market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, impact the ability to complete redemptions, and affect Fund performance. A health crisis may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks. In addition, the increasing interconnectedness of markets around the world may result in many markets being affected by events or conditions in a single country or region or events affecting a single or small number of issuers.

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement

 

At a meeting held on December 11, 2025 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Two Roads Shared Trust (the “Trust”), each of whom is not an “interested person” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees” or the “Trustees”), as such term is defined under Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered the renewal of the investment advisory agreements (each an “Advisory Agreement” and collectively the “Advisory Agreements”) between Redwood Investment Management LLC (“Redwood” or the “Adviser”) and the Trust, on behalf of the LeaderShares AlphaFactor Tactical Focused ETF, LeaderShares AlphaFactor US Core Equity ETF, and LeaderShares Dynamic Yield ETF (each a “LeaderShares ETF” or a “Fund,” and together the “LeaderShares ETFs” or the “Funds”).

 

In connection with the Board’s consideration of the Advisory Agreements, the Board received written materials in advance of the Meeting, which included information regarding: (i) the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to each LeaderShares ETF by Redwood; (ii) a description of the Adviser’s investment management personnel; (iii) an overview of the Adviser’s operations and financial condition; (iv) a description of the Adviser’s brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements); (v) a comparison of each LeaderShares ETF’s advisory fees and overall expenses with those of comparable mutual funds; (vi) the level of profitability from the Adviser’s fund-related operations; (vii) the Adviser’s compliance policies and procedures, including policies and procedures for personal securities transactions, business continuity and information security; and (viii) information regarding the performance record of each LeaderShares ETF as compared to other mutual funds with similar investment strategies.

 

Throughout the process, including at the Meeting, the Board had numerous opportunities to ask questions of and request additional materials and information from Redwood. The Board was advised by, and met in executive sessions with, the Board’s independent legal counsel, and received a memorandum from such independent counsel regarding its responsibilities under applicable law. The Board also noted that the evaluation process with respect to the Adviser is an ongoing one and that in this regard, the Board took into account discussions with management and information provided to the Board at and between prior meetings with respect to the services provided by the Adviser, including quarterly performance reports prepared by management containing reviews of investment results and prior presentations and representations from the Adviser. The Board noted that the information received and considered by the Board in connection with the Meeting and throughout the year was both written and oral. The Board considered renewal of the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund separately.

 

 

LeaderShares® ETFs
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
April 30, 2026

 

Matters considered by the Board in connection with its approval of the Advisory Agreements with respect to each of the LeaderShares ETFs included, among others, the following:

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board reviewed materials provided by Redwood related to the Advisory Agreements with respect to each of the LeaderShares ETFs, including the Advisory Agreements, a description of the manner in which investment decisions are made and executed; an overview of the personnel that perform advisory, compliance and operational services for the LeaderShares ETFs and their background and experience; a summary of the financial condition of Redwood; a quarterly written report containing Redwood’s performance commentary; Redwood’s compliance policies and procedures, including its business continuity plan and cybersecurity policies, and a code of ethics containing provisions reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons, as that term is defined in Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act, from engaging in conduct prohibited by Rule 17j-1(b); information regarding risk management processes and liquidity risk management and its derivative risk management processes and procedures; information regarding Redwood’s compliance and regulatory history; and an independent report prepared by Broadridge, an independent third-party data provider, analyzing the performance record, fees and expenses of each of the LeaderShares ETFs to those of a respective peer group of other mutual funds or ETFs, as applicable, with similar investment strategies as selected by Broadridge (the “Peer Group”).

 

In considering the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Redwood under the Advisory Agreements, the Board considered Redwood’s asset management, risk management, operations, and compliance experience. The Board considered that Redwood had summarized each of the investment strategies used for the LeaderShares ETFs and that, in advising the LeaderShares ETFs, Redwood employed quantitative and tactical investment elements, as applicable, which require a significant level of sophistication and labor to execute. The Board noted that, in addition to the reports on the information with respect to portfolio management functions from Redwood, on a regular basis it receives and reviews information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) regarding Redwood’s compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act, including evaluations of the regulatory compliance systems of Redwood and any disciplinary history. The Board also considered Redwood’s policies and procedures relating to business continuity and cybersecurity, including the Trust CCO’s review and evaluation of these policies and procedures, and that the CCO found them to be satisfactory. The Board also considered the operation of Redwood’s compliance program and any compliance matters and Redwood’s retention of an independent third-party compliance consultant and willingness to follow the recommendations thereof.

 

The Board also considered the significant risks assumed by Redwood in connection with the services provided to the LeaderShares ETFs, including entrepreneurial risk and ongoing risks including investment, operational, enterprise, litigation, regulatory, and compliance risks with respect to the LeaderShares ETFs.

 

In considering the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Redwood, the Board took into account its knowledge, acquired through discussions and reports during the preceding year and in past years, of Redwood’s management and the quality of the performance of Redwood’s duties.

 

After discussion and taking into account the report and evaluation provided by the Trust’s CCO, the Board concluded that Redwood had sufficient personnel, resources, investment methodologies and written compliance policies and procedures to perform its duties under the Advisory Agreement with respect to each of the LeaderShares ETFs.

Performance. In considering each LeaderShares ETF’s performance, the Board noted that it reviews at its regularly scheduled quarterly meetings information about each LeaderShares ETF’s performance results. Among other data, the Board considered each LeaderShares ETF’s performance for the one-year, three-year, five-year, as applicable, and since inception periods ended September 30, 2025, as compared to a benchmark index and against the median performance of its Peer Group and Morningstar category. The Board noted that while it found the data provided by the independent third-party generally useful, it recognized the data’s limitations, including in particular that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the funds in the Peer Group. With respect to the LeaderShares ETFs, the Board also received discount/premium information, as well as tracking error information for those LeaderShares ETFs passively managed against an index.

 

With respect to the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF (for this paragraph only, the “Fund”), the Board considered that the Fund had outperformed the median of its Peer Group for the three-year period and the median of its Morningstar category for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund’s performance was equal to the median of its Peer Group and Morningstar category for the since inception period. The Board further considered that the Fund had underperformed the median of its Peer Group for the one-year and five-year periods and the benchmark index for the one-year, three-year, five year, and since inception periods. The Board also took into account Redwood’s discussion of the factors that contributed to the Fund’s more recent relative performance, including current market conditions.

 

With respect to the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF (for this paragraph only, the “Fund”), the Board considered that the Fund had underperformed the median of its Peer Group and its Morningstar category and the benchmark index for the one-year, three-year, and since inception periods. The Board noted the relatively short performance history of the Fund. The Board also took into account Redwood’s discussion of the factors that contributed to the Fund’s relative performance, including differences in the Fund’s strategy from that of funds in the Peer Group.

 

With respect to the LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF (for this paragraph only, the “Fund”), the Board considered that the Fund had outperformed the benchmark index for the one-year, three-year and since inception periods and underperformed the median of both its Morningstar category and its Peer Group for the one-year, three-year, and since inception periods. The Board noted the relatively short performance history of the Fund. The Board also took into account Redwood’s discussion of the factors that contributed to the Fund’s relative performance, including current market conditions and differences in the Fund’s strategy from that of funds in the Peer Group.

 

The Board also considered Redwood’s discussion of each LeaderShares ETF’s performance, including the factors that contributed to any underperformance, including current market conditions, as well as the quarterly written reports containing Redwood’s performance commentary. The Board noted each Fund’s risk adjusted returns and how each Fund was managed, including whether each Fund was managed according to an index or actively managed by Redwood and the factors contributing to any difference in performance with any other funds managed by Redwood with a similar strategy, if any. The Board also noted that Redwood was actively monitoring the performance of each LeaderShares ETF and considered more recent performance information provided at this Meeting. The Board concluded that

 

 

LeaderShares® ETFs
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)

each LeaderShares ETF was being managed in a manner substantially consistent with its investment objective and strategies and that the overall performance of each of the LeaderShares ETFs was satisfactory or, in the case of underperformance, was being appropriately monitored and/or addressed, and supported renewal of the Advisory Agreement with respect to each of the LeaderShares ETFs.

 

Fees and Expenses. As to the costs of the services provided by Redwood, among other expense data, the Board considered a comparison prepared by Broadridge of each LeaderShares ETF’s contractual advisory fee and operating expenses compared to such LeaderShares ETF’s Peer Group and Morningstar category. The Board noted that while it found the data provided by the independent third-party generally useful it recognized the data’s limitations, including in particular that the funds in the Peer Group had a wide range of asset levels and varying expense record dates.

 

With respect to the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® US Core Equity ETF, the Board noted, among other data, that the Fund’s unitary fee was above the median management fee of both the Fund’s Peer Group and its Morningstar category, but was not the highest among the funds in its Peer Group or Morningstar category. The Board noted the Fund’s unitary fee structure as compared to certain other funds in the Peer Group that did not utilize the same type of fee structure. The Board recognized that the Fund’s net total expenses were above the median net expenses of its Peer Group and Morningstar category but were not the highest among the funds in its Peer Group or Morningstar category. The Board also considered Redwood’s commentary with respect to differences in the Fund’s strategy from that of other funds in the Peer Group.

 

With respect to the LeaderShares® AlphaFactor® Tactical Focused ETF, the Board noted, among other data, that the Fund’s unitary fee was above the median management fee of both the Fund’s Peer Group and Morningstar category, but was not the highest among the funds in its Peer Group or Morningstar category. The Board noted the Fund’s unitary fee structure as compared to certain other funds in the Peer Group that did not utilize the same type of fee structure. The Board recognized that the Fund’s net total expenses were also above the median net expenses of both its Peer Group and its Morningstar category, but were not the highest among the funds in its Peer Group or Morningstar category. The Board also considered Redwood’s commentary with respect to differences in the Fund’s strategy from that of the other funds in the Peer Group.

 

With respect to the LeaderShares® Dynamic Yield ETF, the Board noted, among other data, that the Fund’s unitary fee was above the median management fee of the contractual management fee of both the Fund’s Peer Group and Morningstar category, but was not the highest among the funds in its Peer Group or Morningstar category. The Board noted the Fund’s unitary fee structure as compared to certain other funds in the Peer Group that did not utilize the same type of fee structure. The Board recognized that the Fund’s net total expenses were also above the median net expenses of its Peer Group and Morningstar category but were not the highest among the funds in its Peer Group or Morningstar category.

 

The Board took into account Redwood’s discussion of the LeaderShares ETFs’ expenses. The Board also noted the extent to which Redwood was reimbursing expenses of each Fund, which when factored in, causes the total expenses of each such Fund to be more competitive compared to the other funds in such Fund’s respective Peer Group.

In considering the level of the advisory fee paid with respect to each of the LeaderShares ETFs, the Board took into account the cost of other, private accounts managed by Redwood that used a similar strategy, if any, noting that any variance in the advisory fees was attributable to the differences in the management of these funds versus the private accounts.

 

Based on the factors above, the Board concluded that the advisory fee for each of the LeaderShares ETFs was not unreasonable.

 

Profitability. The Board considered Redwood’s profitability and whether these profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to each of the LeaderShares ETFs. The Board reviewed a profitability analysis prepared by Redwood based on each LeaderShares ETF’s asset level and considered the total profits of Redwood from its relationship with each of the LeaderShares ETFs on a Fund-by-Fund basis and for the LeaderShares ETFs and other funds advised by Redwood in the aggregate. The Board also considered that Redwood had entered into unitary fee arrangements with respect to the LeaderShares ETFs under which Redwood pays most of such Funds’ operating expenses (except all brokerage fees and commissions, taxes, borrowing costs (such as dividend expense on securities sold short and interest), fees and expenses of other investment companies in which such Funds may invest, and extraordinary or non-recurring expenses such as litigation to which such Funds may be a party and indemnification of the Trustees and officers with respect thereto). The Board concluded that Redwood’s profitability from its relationship with each of the LeaderShares ETFs, if any, after taking into account a reasonable allocation of costs, was not excessive.

 

Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether Redwood would realize economies of scale with respect to its management of each LeaderShares ETF as each LeaderShares ETF grew and whether fee levels reflected these economies. The Board noted that each LeaderShares ETF’s current advisory fee does not include breakpoints and took into account Redwood’s discussion of the Funds’ fee structures, including the current size of the Funds as well as the level of expenses incurred with respect to each Fund. The Board considered the profitability analysis provided by the Adviser and noted that while expenses of managing each LeaderShares ETF as a percentage of assets under management were expected to decrease as each LeaderShares ETF’s assets continued to grow, at current asset levels, economies of scale have not yet been reached. The Board noted that it would revisit whether economies of scale exist in the future once the respective LeaderShares ETF had achieved sufficient size.

 

Other Benefits. The Board also considered the character and amount of other direct and incidental benefits to be received by Redwood from its relationship with the LeaderShares ETFs. The Board considered that Redwood uses certain LeaderShares ETFs as components of model portfolios it builds for its clients. The Board considered that Redwood has represented to the Board that it did not believe it receives any direct, indirect or ancillary material “fall-out” benefits from its relationship with the Funds. The Board concluded that any such benefits are reasonable.

Conclusion. The Board, having requested and received such information from Redwood as it believed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreements with respect to the LeaderShares ETFs, and having been advised by independent counsel that the Board had appropriately considered and weighed all relevant factors, including reliance on the representations and commitments made by Redwood previously and at the Meeting, determined that approval of each of the Advisory Agreements with respect to each of the respective LeaderShares ETFs for an additional one-year term was in the best interests of each LeaderShares ETF and its shareholders.

 

In considering the Advisory Agreement renewal with respect to each of the LeaderShares ETFs, the Board considered a variety of factors, including those discussed above, and also considered other factors, including conditions and trends prevailing generally in the economy, the securities markets, and the industry. The Board did not identify any one factor as determinative, and each Independent Trustee may have weighed each factor differently. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of the advisory arrangements in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of each LeaderShares ETF’s performance and operations throughout the year.
