| 1. | ORGANIZATION |
The Pacific Financial Family of Mutual Funds is comprised of seventeen different actively managed funds. Each Fund is a diversified series of shares of beneficial interest of Northern Lights Fund Trust (the “Trust”), a trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on January 19, 2005, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. Each Fund currently offers Class I shares. Effective March 31, 2025, each fund converted its Class R shares to Class I shares. The Funds are “fund of funds”, in that each Fund will generally invest in other investment companies. The Funds and their primary investment objective, as of April 30, 2026, are as follows:

| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of the 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 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 Accounting Standard Update 2013-08.
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 Funds operate as a single operating segment. Each 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 Funds, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

| THE PACIFIC FINANCIAL FUNDS |
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| April 30, 2026 |
Accounting Pronouncement – The Funds 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 ASU 2023-09 are intended to address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Funds’ adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
Securities Valuation – Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the primary 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 (“NOCP”). In the absence of a sale, such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the primary exchange on the day of valuation. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Valuation of Fund of Funds – The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end or closed-end investment companies. Open-end investment companies are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such investment companies. Open-end 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 based upon methods established by the board of trustees of the open-end funds.
The shares of many 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 market 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 fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities. The Funds may purchase an ETF to gain exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market. 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. Additionally, ETFs have fees and expenses that reduce their value.
The Fund may hold investments, 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 investments are valued using the “fair value” procedures approved by the Board. The Board has designated the adviser as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to execute these procedures. The Board may also enlist third party consultants such as 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.
Fair Valuation Process – 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 will 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 a 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 a 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
52
| THE PACIFIC FINANCIAL FUNDS |
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| April 30, 2026 |
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.
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 a 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 a 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 2 or Level 3 securities during the year ended April 30, 2026.
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 under the effective interest method. 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 – Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually by the Funds. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are recorded on the ex-dividend date and 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, capital loss carryforwards) 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; and temporary differences do not require reclassification. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset values per share of each Fund.
Federal Income Tax – It is the policy of each Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Each 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 each Fund’s 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 April 30, 2023 through April 30, 2025, or expected to be taken in the Funds’ April 30, 2026 year-end tax returns. Each Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. federal, Ohio, and foreign jurisdictions where a Fund makes significant investments; however, the Funds are 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. The Funds recognized interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and other expenses, respectively. For the year ended April 30, 2026, the Funds did not have 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, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

Pursuant to an expense limitation agreement between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”), the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its advisory fee to the extent necessary so that the total expenses incurred by each Fund (exclusive of any brokerage fees and commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short), taxes, and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees, contractual indemnification of Fund service providers (other than the Adviser))) will not exceed 1.99% per annum of each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Expense Limitation Agreement may be terminated by the Board upon 60 days’ written notice to the Adviser.
For the year ended April 30, 2026, the Funds did not waive any fees pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement.
Effective May 1, 2020, The Pacific Financial Group, Inc. (“TPFG), an affiliate of the Adviser, entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with the Trust (the “Administrative Services Agreement”). Under the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement, TPFG receives a fee from each Fund in an amount equal to 0.70% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. In exchange, TPFG is responsible for providing the following services and to pay for the following Fund expenses.
The Funds are used to construct model portfolios, consisting solely of one or more of the Funds (the “Model Portfolios”), which are purchased by the Funds’ shareholders. The shareholders are investment management clients of TPFG and are typically introduced to TPFG by a financial intermediary. In most, but not all, instances, the shareholders are participants in a retirement plan, regulated by ERISA or by Internal Revenue Code, and the shareholders invest in the Model Portfolios through a self-directed brokerage account (“SDBA”) or a similar type of account made available by the retirement plan.
Among the services provided to shareholders, by TPFG, under the Administrative Services Agreement, are: (i) assistance in opening an account in which the shareholder will invest in a Model Portfolio; (ii) providing resources that enable the Financial Intermediary to assist the shareholder, in identifying the shareholder’s investment objective and risk profile; (iii) educating, and responding to questions from, shareholders, or from Financial Intermediaries acting on behalf of a shareholder, about the Funds and the Model Portfolios; (iv) trading Model Portfolios on behalf of shareholders, and reconciling those trades, typically with the custodian of a retirement plan; (v) maintaining records of investments in Model Portfolios, the performance of Model Portfolios, and contributions to, and withdrawals from, Model
59

| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| April 30, 2026 |
Portfolios, for shareholders and for their financial intermediaries; and (vi) assisting in account maintenance, account closings, and account transfers, for shareholders. All of these services are in addition to the services provided by other Fund service providers.
In addition to providing services, TPFG is responsible to make the following payments, on behalf of the Funds: (a) the fees and certain expenses incurred in connection with the provision of Fund Administration, Fund Accounting and Fund Transfer Agent Services; (b) the fees and certain expenses of the Funds’ Custodian; (c) the fees charged by retirement plan or other custodians that maintain SDBAs or other brokerage accounts for Fund shareholders; (d) the charges and expenses of legal counsel and independent accountants for the Funds; (e) the fees and expenses of Trustees who are not affiliated persons of the Adviser or distributor; (f) the fees of the Funds’ participation in any trade association of which the Trust may be a member; (g) the cost of fidelity and liability insurance; (h) the fees and expenses involved in maintaining registration of the Fund and of the Funds’ shares with the SEC, maintaining qualification of the Funds’ shares under state securities laws, and the preparation and printing of the Funds’ registration statements and prospectuses for such purposes; (i) expenses of shareholders and Trustees’ meetings; and (j) expenses of preparing, printing and mailing reports, proxy statements and prospectuses to shareholders in the amount necessary for distribution to shareholders (collectively, “Fund Operating Expenses”).
Under the Administrative Services Agreement, Fund Operating Expenses do not include (i) advertising, promotion and other expenses incurred in connection with the sale or distribution of the Funds’ shares (including expenses that the Funds are authorized to pay pursuant to Rule 12b-1); (ii) brokerage fees and commissions; (iii) taxes; (iv) borrowing costs; (iv) fees and expenses of investment companies acquired by a Fund; (v) advisory fees payable to the Adviser; and (vi) extraordinary or non-recurring expenses, such as litigation and indemnification expenses. TPFG’s role with respect to paying Fund Operating Expenses shall be as the paying agent, without responsibility (under the Administrative Services Agreement) for the manner of performance by the Funds’ service providers.
The Administrative Services Agreement will continue in effect for one (1) year and thereafter shall continue from year to year provided such continuance is approved at least annually by a vote of the majority of the Trustees. The Administrative Services Agreement may be terminated without penalty on 60 days’ written notice by a vote of a majority of the Trustees or by the TPFG, or by holders of a majority of that Trust’s outstanding shares.
The Trust, with respect to the Funds, has adopted the Trust’s Master Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “Plan”). The Plan provides that a monthly service and/or distribution fee is calculated by each Fund at an annual rate up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets.
Northern Lights Fund Distributors, LLC, the Fund's distributor (the "Distributor"), and other entities are paid under the Plan for services provided and the expenses borne by the Distributor and others, such as custodial platform providers and retirement plan administrators ("Platforms"), in the distribution of Fund shares and in the servicing of Fund shareholders. For the Distributor, such services and expenses include overhead and telephone expenses; printing and distribution of prospectuses and reports used in connection with the offering of the Funds' shares to other than current shareholders; and preparation, printing and distribution of sales literature and advertising materials. For Platforms, the Plan permits the payment of fees charged by Platforms for distribution services provided in connection with Fund shares and custodial, recordkeeping and other services provided to Fund shareholders.
For financial intermediaries, such as brokers, investment advisers, financial planners, banks, insurance companies and others, including their respective representatives (collectively, "Financial Intermediaries"), Plan fees may be used for payment of shareholder services, such as shareholder account administrative services, and marketing support, which may include access to, or financial support for, sales meetings; access to sales representatives and Financial Intermediary management representatives; inclusion of the Funds on a sales list, including a preferred or select sales list; printing and distribution of sales literature and advertising materials; or participation in other sales programs . If you work with a Financial Intermediary in investing in the Funds, the Financial Intermediary may receive 12b-1 fees from the Distributor, for the marketing support and shareholder services provided by the Financial Intermediary.
The Distributor acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Funds’ shares. The Distributor did not receive any commissions from the sale of the Funds’ shares.

Pursuant to separate servicing agreements with UFS, TPFG pay UFS customary fees for providing administration, fund accounting and transfer agency 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”), 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 Trust. Under the terms of such agreement, NLCS receives customary fees from TPFG.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of April 30, 2026, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of certain previously related investment companies within the Fund family since 2008.

In considering the renewal of the Advisory Agreement, the Board received materials specifically relating to the Advisory Agreement.
The Trustees were assisted by independent legal counsel throughout the Advisory Agreement review process. The Trustees relied upon the advice of independent legal counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Advisory Agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached by the Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided and were not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the Advisory Agreement.

PFG Janus Balanced. The Board considered that the fee was above the category average of 0.35%, and equal to the category high.
PFG Invesco. The Board considered that the fee was above the category average of 0.82%, and slightly below the category high.

PFG US Equity. The Board considered that the fee was above the category average of 0.58%, and below the category high of 1.62%.
The Board noted that a portion of the Advisers reasonable profits derived from its total compensation paid by the PFG Funds was paid to third-party investment advisers that delivered ongoing shareholder services and investment advice to the shareholders, an important service for self-directed retirement plan investors. The Board acknowledged that the risk-based strategies provided shareholders with the option to establish an investment plan based on an individual risk profile. The Board evaluated each Funds net expense ratio of 1.99%, observing that the net expense ratio was higher than the peer group and Morningstar category median and average. The Board deliberated the reasonableness of the fees, contemplated the ancillary benefits of the administrative services fee, and determined that each Funds advisory fee was not unreasonable given the package of distinctive services provided to each of the PFG Funds and their respective shareholders.
Profitability. The Board examined the profitability analysis furnished by the Adviser, which examined income and expenses related solely to each Funds Advisory Agreement, profits from supplementary services provided to each of the Funds under the administrative services agreement, and on an aggregate basis. The Board observed that with respect to each Fund, the Advisers profitability was reasonable in terms of both percentage of revenue and actual dollars paid given the level of services provided to the Funds and the shareholders. The Board concluded that the Advisers profits on an aggregate and on a fund-by-fund basis were not excessive.
Economies of Scale. The Board contemplated whether the Adviser had achieved economies of scale with respect to the management of the PFG Funds. They acknowledged that PFG did not anticipate any obstacles to growth, from an investment management, compliance, or operational perspective. They observed that each of the advisory fees provided breakpoints at a certain aggregate asset level, that the PFG Funds were paying a reduced fee based on the breakpoints, and that the Adviser and the Board would continue to monitor the growth in assets of the PFG Funds and whether the PFG Funds, on an aggregate or individual basis, reached a level where additional concessions should be considered. The Board acknowledged that PFG had agreed to further evaluate potential fee reductions. After further dialogue, the Board concluded that the current breakpoints were reasonable.
Conclusion. The Board requested and received such information from the Adviser as deemed to be reasonably necessary to assess the terms of the Advisory Agreement, and as aided by the advice of independent counsel, the Board concluded that renewal of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the shareholders of each of the PFG Funds.
