Note 1 – Organization

EuroPac International Value Fund (the ‘‘International Value Fund’’), EuroPac International Bond Fund (the “International Bond Fund”), EuroPac International Dividend Income Fund (the “International Dividend Income Fund”), EP Emerging Markets Fund (the “Emerging Markets Fund”) and EuroPac Gold Fund (the “Gold Fund”) (each a “Fund” and collectively the ‘‘Funds’’) are organized as a diversified series of Investment Managers Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) which is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The International Value Fund commenced operations on April 7, 2010, and its primary investment objective is to provide income and long-term capital appreciation. The International Bond Fund commenced operations on November 15, 2010, and its primary investment objective is to provide current income and capital appreciation. The International Dividend Income Fund commenced operations on January 10, 2014, and its primary investment objective is to seek income and maximize growth of income. The Emerging Markets Fund commenced operations on December 1, 2010, and its primary investment objective is to provide long-term capital appreciation. The Gold Fund commenced operations on July 19, 2013, and its primary investment objective is to provide long-term capital appreciation. The International Value Fund, International Bond Fund, International Dividend Income Fund, Emerging Markets Fund and Gold Fund are authorized to issue two classes of shares: Class A shares and Class I shares. The Class I shares commenced operations on July 16, 2013 in the International Value Fund, International Bond Fund and Emerging Markets Fund. The Class I shares commenced operations on November 20, 2018 in the Gold Fund.

 

The shares of each class represent an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund and have equal rights as to voting, redemptions, dividends and liquidation, subject to the approval of the Trustees.  Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class) and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares in proportion to their relative net assets.  Shareholders of a class that bears distribution and service expenses under the terms of a distribution plan have exclusive voting rights to that distribution plan.

 

Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services—Investment Companies.”

 

Each Fund is deemed to be an individual reporting segment and is not part of a consolidated reporting entity. The objective and strategy of each Fund is used by the Advisor to make investment decisions, and the results of the operations, as shown on the Statements of Operations and the Financial Highlights for each Fund is the information utilized for the day-to-day management of the Funds. Each Fund is party to the expense agreements as disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements and there are no resources allocated to the Fund based on performance measurements. The management of the Fund’s Advisor is deemed to be the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) with respect to the Funds’ investment decisions.

 

Note 2 – Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

(a) Valuation of Investments

Each Fund value equity securities at the last reported sale price on the principal exchange or in the principal over the counter (“OTC”) market in which such securities are traded, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the day the securities are being valued or, if the last-quoted sales price is not readily available, the securities will be valued at the last bid or the mean between the last available bid and ask price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at the daily closing net asset value of the respective investment company. Debt securities are valued by utilizing a price supplied by independent pricing service providers. The independent pricing service providers may use various valuation methodologies including matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. These models generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings and general market conditions. If a price is not readily available for a portfolio security, the security will be valued at fair value (the amount which the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale) as determined in good faith by the Fund’s advisor, subject to review and approval by the Valuation Committee, pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The actions of the Valuation Committee are subsequently reviewed by the Board at its next regularly scheduled board meeting. The Valuation Committee meets as needed. The Valuation Committee is comprised of all the Trustees, but action may be taken by any one of the Trustees.

 

Fair value pricing may be applied to foreign securities held by the Funds upon the occurrence of an event after the close of trading on non-U.S. markets, but before the close of trading on the NYSE when each Fund’s NAV is determined. If the event may result in a material adjustment to the price of the Fund’s foreign securities once non-U.S. markets open on the following business day (such as, for example, a significant surge or decline in the U.S. market), the Fund may value such foreign securities at fair value, taking into account the effect of such event, in order to calculate the Fund’s NAV. Other types of portfolio securities that the Fund may fair value include, but are not limited to: (1) investments that are illiquid or traded infrequently, including “restricted” securities and private placements for which there is no public market; (2) investments for which, in the judgment of the Advisor, the market price is stale; (3) securities of an issuer that has entered into a restructuring; (4) securities for which trading has been halted or suspended; and (5) fixed income securities for which there is not a current market value quotation.

 

Foreign securities traded in countries outside the U.S. are fair valued by utilizing the quotations of an independent pricing service or from a brokerage firm. The pricing service will use a statistical analyses and quantitative models to adjust local prices using factors such as subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indexes, securities and exchange rates in other markets in determining fair value as of the time the Fund calculates the NAVs. The Board reviews the independent third party fair valuation analysis report quarterly.

 

(b) Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis.  Dividend income is recorded net of applicable withholding taxes on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis.  Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if applicable, are paid (a portion of which may be reclaimable) or provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations.  Withholding tax reclaims are filed in certain countries to recover a portion of the amounts previously withheld. The Funds record a reclaim receivable based on a number of factors, including a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as payment history and market convention.  The Funds may be subject to foreign taxation related to capital gains on sale of securities in the foreign jurisdictions in which they invest. When a capital gain tax is determined to apply, the Funds record an estimated deferred tax liability in an amount that may be payable if the securities were disposed of on the valuation date. Discounts on debt securities are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Premiums for callable debt securities are amortized to the earliest call date, if the call price was less than the purchase price. If the call price was not at par and the security was not called, the security is amortized to the next call price and date.  Income and Expenses of the Funds are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class of shares, except for distribution and service fees which are unique to each class of shares relative net assets. Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to more than one fund are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each fund except where allocation of direct expenses to each Fund or an alternative allocation method can be more appropriately made.

(c) Foreign Currency Translation

The Funds’ records are maintained in U.S. dollars.  The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period.  The currencies are translated into U.S. dollars by using the exchange rates quoted at the close of the London Stock Exchange prior to when the Funds’ NAV is next determined. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions.

 

The Funds do not isolate that portion of their net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates from the impact arising from changes in market prices.  Such fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments and foreign currency.

 

Net realized foreign currency transaction gains and losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the differences between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.  Net unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rates.

 

(d) Federal Income Taxes

The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized gains to its shareholders.  Therefore, no provision is made for federal income or excise taxes.  Due to the timing of dividend distributions and the differences in accounting for income and realized gains and losses for financial statement and federal income tax purposes, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the income and realized gains and losses are recorded by the Funds.

 

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (the “Income Tax Statement”) requires an evaluation of tax positions taken (or expected to be taken) in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether these positions meet a “more-likely-than-not” standard that, based on the technical merits, have a more than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained by a taxing authority upon examination. A tax position that meets the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations.

 

The Income Tax Statement requires management of the Funds to analyze tax positions taken in the prior three open tax years, if any, and tax positions expected to be taken in the Funds’ current tax year, as defined by the IRS statute of limitations for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of April 30, 2026 and during the prior three open tax years, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds have no examination in progress and are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

(e) Distributions to Shareholders

The International Value Fund, International Bond Fund, International Dividend Income Fund, Emerging Markets Fund and Gold Fund will make distributions of net investment income, per the table below and net capital gains, if any, at least annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

 

 

Distribution Frequency of

Net Investment Income

International Value Fund Quarterly
International Bond Fund Monthly
International Dividend Income Fund Quarterly
Emerging Markets Fund Annually
Gold Fund Annually

 

The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from the characterization for federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expense and gain (loss) items for financial statement and tax purposes.

 

(f) Warrants and Rights

The Funds may invest in warrants or rights (including those acquired in units or attached to other securities) that entitle (but do not obligate) the holder to buy equity securities at a specific price for a specific period of time but will do so only if such equity securities are deemed appropriate by the Advisor. Rights are similar to warrants but typically have a shorter duration and are issued by a company to existing stockholders to provide those holders the right to purchase additional shares of stock at a later date. Warrants and rights do not have voting rights, do not earn dividends, and do not entitle the holder to any rights with respect to the assets of the company that has issued them. They do not represent ownership of the underlying companies but only the right to purchase shares of those companies at a specified price on or before a specified exercise date. Warrants and rights tend to be more volatile than the underlying stock, and if at a warrant’s expiration date the stock is trading at a price below the price set in the warrant, the warrant will expire worthless. Conversely, if at the expiration date the stock is trading at a price higher than the price set in the warrant or right, a Fund can acquire the stock at a price below its market value. The prices of warrants and rights do not necessarily parallel the prices of the underlying securities. An investment in warrants or rights may be considered speculative.

 

(g) Illiquid Securities

Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Funds have adopted a Liquidity Risk Management Program (“LRMP”) that requires, among other things, that the Funds limit their illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. An illiquid investment is any security which may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. If the Advisor, at any time, determines that the value of illiquid securities held by a Fund exceeds 15% of its net asset value, the Advisor will take such steps as it considers appropriate to reduce them as soon as reasonably practicable in accordance with the Funds’ written LRMP.

 

Note 3 – Investment Advisory and Other Agreements

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Euro Pacific Asset Management, LLC (the “Advisor”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Funds pay a monthly investment advisory fee to the Advisor. The annual rates are listed by Fund in the table below. The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or pay for operating expenses (excluding any taxes, leverage interest, brokerage commissions, dividend and interest expenses on short sales, acquired fund fees and expenses (as determined in accordance with SEC Form N-1A), expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, and extraordinary expenses such as litigation expenses) in order to limit total annual operating expenses of each fund. This agreement is in effect until February 28, 2027, and it may be terminated before that date only by the Trust's Board of Trustees. The table below contains the investment advisory fee annual rate and the expense cap by Fund and by Class.

The Advisor is permitted to seek reimbursement from the Fund, subject to certain limitations, of fees waived or payments made to the Fund for a period ending three full fiscal years after the date of the waiver or payment. This reimbursement may be requested from the Fund if the reimbursement will not cause the Fund’s annual expense ratio to exceed the lesser of (a) the expense limitation in effect at the time such fees were waived or payments made, or (b) the expense limitation in effect at the time of the reimbursement. At April 30, 2026, the amount of these potentially recoverable expenses was $577,067 and $323,837 for the International Bond Fund and Emerging Markets Fund, respectively. The potential recoverable amount is noted as “Commitments and contingencies” as reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Advisor may recapture all or a portion of the amounts no later than October 31st of the years stated below:

The difference between cost amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes is due primarily to wash sale loss deferrals and passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”). 

 

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

 

    International
Value Fund
    International

Note 8 – Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. 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 Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

 

Note 9 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. It also provides guidance on determining when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or a liability, when a transaction is not orderly, and how that information must be incorporated into a fair value measurement.

 

Under Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized into three broad Levels as described below:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or 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 inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of April 30, 2026, in valuing the Funds’ assets carried at fair value:

(1) The investment advisor considers relevant indications of value that are reasonably and timely available to it in determining the fair value to be assigned to a particular security, such as the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions.  The Fund’s use of fair value pricing may cause the net asset value of Fund shares to differ from the net asset value that would be calculated using market quotations.  Fair value pricing involves subjective judgements, and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security.
(2) This column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect.

Note 11 – Investments in Affiliated Issuers

An affiliated issuer is an entity in which the Fund has ownership of at least 5% of the voting securities or any investment in a EuroPac Fund. Issuers that are affiliates of the Fund at period end are noted in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments. Additional security purchases and the reduction of certain securities shares outstanding of existing portfolio holdings that were not considered affiliated in prior years may result in the Fund owning in excess of 5% of the outstanding shares at period-end. The table below reflects transactions during the period with entities that are affiliates as of April 30, 2026 and may include acquisitions of new investments, prior year holdings that became affiliated during the period and prior period affiliated holdings that are no longer affiliated as of period-end:

Note 12 – Market Disruption and Geopolitical Risks

Certain local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illnesses and/or other public health issues, financial institution instability or other events may have a significant impact on a security or instrument. These types of events and other like them are collectively referred to as “Market Disruptions and Geopolitical Risks” and they may have adverse impacts on the worldwide economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial health of individual companies and the market in general in significant and unforeseen ways. Some of the impacts noted in recent times include but are not limited to embargos, political actions, supply chain disruptions, tariffs, bank failures, restrictions to investment and/or monetary movement including the forced selling of securities or the inability to participate impacted markets. The duration of these events could adversely affect the Fund’s performance, the performance of the securities in which the Fund invests and may lead to losses on your investment. The ultimate impact of “Market Disruptions and Geopolitical Risks” on the financial performance of the Fund’s investments is not reasonably estimable at this time. Management is actively monitoring these events.

Note 13 – New Accounting Pronouncement

In the reporting period, the Funds adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) — Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which enhances income tax disclosures, including disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The standard is an annual disclosure requirement and Fund Management is evaluating the impacts of these changes to the Funds’ financial statements.

 

Note 14 – Events Subsequent to the Fiscal Period End

The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules regarding subsequent events which require an entity to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet. Management has evaluated the Funds’ related events and transactions that occurred through the date of issuance of the Funds’ financial statements. There were no events or transactions that occurred during this period that materially impacted the amounts or disclosures in the Funds’ financial statements.

Board Consideration of Investment Advisory Agreement 

At an in-person meeting held on March 18, 2026, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Investment Managers Series Trust (the “Trust”), including the trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”) as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), reviewed and unanimously approved the renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and Euro Pacific Asset Management, LLC (the “Advisor”) for an additional one-year term from when it otherwise would expire, with respect to the following series of the Trust (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”):

 

EP Emerging Markets Fund (the “Emerging Markets Fund”),

 

EuroPac Gold Fund (the “Gold Fund”),

 

EuroPac International Bond Fund (the “International Bond Fund”),

 

EuroPac International Dividend Income Fund (the “International Dividend Fund”), and

 

EuroPac International Value Fund (the “International Value Fund”).

 

In approving the renewal of the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, determined that such renewal was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

 

Background

In advance of the meeting, the Board received information about the Funds and the Advisory Agreement from the Advisor and from Mutual Fund Administration, LLC and UMB Fund Services, Inc., the Trust’s co-administrators, certain portions of which are discussed below. The materials, among other things, included information about the organization and financial condition of the Advisor; information regarding the background, experience, and compensation structure of relevant personnel providing services to the Funds; information about the Advisor’s compliance policies and procedures, cybersecurity, disaster recovery and contingency planning, and policies with respect to portfolio execution and trading; information regarding the profitability of the Advisor’s overall relationship with the Funds; reports comparing the performance of each Fund with returns of its benchmark index and a group of comparable funds (each, a “Peer Group”) selected by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) from Morningstar, Inc.’s relevant category (each, a “Fund Universe”) for various periods ended December 31, 2025; and reports comparing the investment advisory fee and total expenses of each Fund with those of its Peer Group and Fund Universe. The Board also received a memorandum from legal counsel to the Trust discussing the legal standards under the 1940 Act and other applicable law for their consideration of the proposed renewal of the Advisory Agreement. In addition, the Board considered information reviewed by the Board during the year at other Board and Board committee meetings. No representatives of the Advisor were present during the Board’s consideration of the Advisory Agreement, and the Independent Trustees were represented by their legal counsel with respect to the matters considered.

58

 

In renewing the Advisory Agreement, the Board and the Independent Trustees considered a variety of factors, including those discussed below. In their deliberations, the Board and the Independent Trustees did not identify any particular factor that was controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors.

 

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services

With respect to the performance results of each Fund, the meeting materials indicated the following:

 

The Emerging Markets Fund’s total return for the one-year period was above the MSCI AC Asia ex Japan Small Cap Index (the “MSCI Asia ex Japan Index”) return, but below the Diversified Emerging Markets Fund Universe and Peer Group median returns and the MSCI Emerging Markets Net Return Index (the “MSCI EM Index”) return by 6.71%, 7.40%, and 8.15%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total return for the ten-year period was below the Peer Group median return, the MSCI Asia ex Japan Index return, the Fund Universe median return, and the MSCI EM Index return by 1.66%, 2.25%, 2.31%, 2.93%, respectively. For the five-year period, the Fund’s annualized total return was below the Peer Group and Fund Universe median returns, the MSCI EM Index return, and the MSCI Asia ex Japan Index return by 0.55%, 2.05%, 3.08%, 6.92%, respectively. The Fund’s annualized total return for the three-year period was below the Peer Group median return by 3.89%, the MSCI Asia ex Japan Index return by 4.66%, the Fund Universe median return by 5.40%, and the MSCI EM Index return by 5.81%. The Trustees considered the Advisor’s belief that the Fund’s underperformance for the one-year period was due to the Fund’s overweight allocation to China and its underweight allocation to artificial intelligence-related stocks, which the Advisor believes traded beyond their fundamental values. The Trustees also observed that the Fund’s volatility of returns, as measured by its standard deviation, and its downside volatility, as measured by its Morningstar risk score, ranked it in the first quartile of the funds (which is the most favorable) in the Peer Group and Fund Universe for the one-, three-, and five-year periods.

 

The Gold Fund’s annualized total return for the ten-year period was above the S&P 500 Total Return Index (the “S&P 500 Index”) return, but below the Equity Precious Metals Fund Universe and Peer Group median returns, the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Total Return Index (the “NYSE Index”) return, and the Philadelphia Gold & Silver Index (the “Philadelphia Index”) return by 1.45%, 1.45%, 1.47%, 5.50%, respectively. For the three-year period, the Fund’s annualized total return was above the S&P 500 Index return, but below the NYSE Index return, the Fund Universe median return, the Philadelphia Index return, and the Peer Group median return by 8.24%, 8.41%, 9.17%, and 9.55%, respectively. The Fund’s total return for the one-year period was above the S&P 500 Index return, but below the Philadelphia Index return by 26.06%, the NYSE Index return by 26.32%, the Fund Universe median return by 26.34%, and the Peer Group median return by 28.64%. The Fund’s annualized total return for the five-year period was below the S&P 500 Index return, the Fund Universe and Peer Group median returns, the NYSE Index return, and the Philadelphia Index return by 2.02%, 6.07%, 6.49%, 7.00%, 9.49%, respectively. The Trustee considered the Advisor’s assertion that the Fund’s underperformance relative to the Peer Group was due to the underperformance in exploration and mid-tier miners, which was mostly driven by relatively slow asset flows into the sector. The Trustees also considered the Advisor’s belief that the Fund’s underperformance compared to the Philadelphia Index was primarily due to the Philadelphia Index being fully invested in large-cap miners, some of which are not gold miners. The Trustees also observed that the Fund’s volatility of returns, as measured by its standard deviation, ranked it in the first quartile of the funds (which is the most favorable) in the Peer Group and Fund Universe for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods.

The International Bond Fund’s annualized total returns for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods were above the Peer Group and Global Bond Fund Universe median returns, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index returns, the FTSE Non-USD World Government Bond Index returns, and the JPMorgan GBI Global ex-US FX NY Index Unhedged in USD returns.

 

The International Dividend Fund’s annualized total returns for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods were above the Peer Group and Foreign Large Value Fund Universe median returns, the Bloomberg World ex-U.S. Large-Mid Net Return Index (the “Bloomberg World ex-U.S. Index”) returns, and the S&P International Dividend Opportunities Total Return Index returns.

 

The International Value Fund’s annualized total returns for the one- and ten-year periods were above the Peer Group and Foreign Large Value Fund Universe median returns, the MSCI World ex USA Index returns, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Value Net Return Index (the “MSCI ACWI ex USA Index”) returns, and the Bloomberg World ex-U.S. Index returns. For the five-year period, the Fund’s annualized total return was above the Peer Group median return, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index return, the Fund Universe median return, and the Bloomberg World ex-U.S. Index return, but below the MSCI World ex USA Index return by 1.13%. The Fund’s annualized total return for the three-year period was above the Bloomberg World ex-U.S. Index return, but below the Peer Group and Fund Universe median returns, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index return, and the MSCI World ex USA Index return by 0.13%, 0.14%, 0.87%, and 2.28%, respectively. The Board considered the Advisor’s assertion that the Fund met its investment objectives over the one-year period and that although the Fund had been adversely impacted by its overweight allocation to precious metals over the ten-year period, those holdings had contributed positively to the Fund’s performance more recently. The Trustees observed that the Fund’s volatility of returns, as measured by its standard deviation; its risk-adjusted returns, as measured by its Sharpe ratio; its downside volatility, as measured by its Morningstar risk score; and its risk-adjusted returns relative to the benchmark, as measured by its information ratio, ranked it in the first or second quartile of the funds (which are the most favorable) in the Peer Group and Fund Universe for the five-year period. The Trustees also observed that for the ten-year period, the Fund’s standard deviation ranked it in the first quartile of funds in the Peer Group, and the Fund’s Sharpe ratio, Morningstar risk score, and information ratio ranked it in the first or second quartile of funds in the Peer Group and Fund Universe.

 

The Board considered the overall quality of services provided by the Advisor to the Funds. In doing so, the Board considered the Advisor’s specific responsibilities in day-to-day management and oversight of the Funds, as well as the qualifications, experience, and responsibilities of the personnel involved in the activities of the Funds. The Board also considered the overall quality of the organization and operations of the Advisor, as well as its compliance structure and compliance procedures. The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that based on the various factors they had reviewed, the nature, overall quality, and extent of the management and oversight services provided by the Advisor to each Fund were satisfactory.

Advisory Fees and Expense Ratios

With respect to the advisory fees and expenses paid by the Funds, the meeting materials indicated the following:

 

The Emerging Markets Fund’s annual investment advisory fee (gross of fee waivers) was higher than the Peer Group and Diversified Emerging Markets Fund Universe medians by 0.08% and 0.13%, respectively. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was higher than the standard fee that the Advisor charges to sub-advise separate accounts for institutional clients of its affiliate, Alliance Global Partners Corp (“AGP”). The Trustees observed, however, that management of mutual fund assets requires compliance with certain requirements under the 1940 Act that do not apply to AGP’s institutional clients, and that the Advisor provides more services to the Fund than it does to separately managed accounts for which it serves as sub-advisor. The Trustees also considered that the Fund’s advisory fee was within the range of advisory fees paid by the other series of the Trust managed by the Advisor.

 

The annual total expenses paid by the Fund (net of fee waivers) for the Fund’s most recent fiscal year were higher than the Peer Group and Fund Universe medians by 0.38% and 0.41%, respectively. The Trustees noted, however, that the average net assets of the Fund’s class considered by Broadridge were lower than the average net assets of corresponding classes of funds in the Peer Group, and significantly lower than the average net assets of corresponding classes of funds in the Fund Universe, and that certain of those other funds also had significant assets in other classes. The Trustees also considered the Advisor’s observation that some of the funds in the Peer Group are part of larger fund complexes and therefore could have lower expenses and/or support lower expense caps.

 

The Gold Fund’s annual investment advisory fee (gross of fee waivers) was the same as the Peer Group and Equity Precious Metals Fund Universe medians. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was the same as the standard fee that the Advisor charges to sub-advise separate accounts for institutional clients of its affiliate, AGP. The Trustees observed, however, that management of mutual fund assets requires compliance with certain requirements under the 1940 Act that do not apply to AGP’s institutional clients, and that the Advisor provides more services to the Fund than it does to separately managed accounts for which it serves as sub-advisor. The Trustees also considered that the Fund’s advisory fee was within the range of advisory fees paid by the other series of the Trust managed by the Advisor.

 

The annual total expenses paid by the Fund (net of fee waivers) for the Fund’s most recent fiscal year were lower than the Peer Group and Fund Universe medians.

 

The International Bond Fund’s annual investment advisory fee (gross of fee waivers) was lower than the Peer Group median, but higher than the Global Bond Fund Universe median by 0.05%. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was lower than the standard fee that the Advisor charges to sub-advise separate accounts for institutional clients of its affiliate, AGP. The Trustees also considered that the Fund’s advisory fee was lower than the advisory fees paid by the other series of the Trust managed by the Advisor.

61

 

The annual total expenses paid by the Fund (net of fee waivers) for the Fund’s most recent fiscal year were higher than the Peer Group and Fund Universe medians by 0.11% and 0.15%, respectively. The Trustees noted, however, that the average net assets of the Fund’s class considered by Broadridge were significantly lower than the average net assets of corresponding classes of funds in the Peer Group and Fund Universe, and that certain of those other funds also had significant assets in other classes. The Trustees also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were not in the highest quartile of the funds in the Peer Group.

 

The International Dividend Fund’s annual investment advisory fee (gross of fee waivers) was higher than both the Peer Group and Foreign Large Value Fund Universe medians by 0.10%. The Trustees considered the Advisor’s belief that several of the funds in the Peer Group are similar to index funds, whereas the Fund requires substantially more effort and specialization to manage. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was higher than the standard fee that the Advisor charges to sub-advise separate accounts for institutional clients of its affiliate, AGP. The Trustees observed, however, that management of mutual fund assets requires compliance with certain requirements under the 1940 Act that do not apply to AGP’s institutional clients, and that the Advisor provides more services to the Fund than it does to separately managed accounts for which it serves as sub-advisor. The Trustees also considered that the Fund’s advisory fee was within the range of advisory fees paid by the other series of the Trust managed by the Advisor.

 

The annual total expenses paid by the Fund (net of fee waivers) for the Fund’s most recent fiscal year were higher than the Peer Group and Fund Universe medians by 0.26% and 0.32%, respectively. The Trustees considered the Advisor’s assertion that the Fund is somewhat uniquely focused on smaller, less liquid markets than the funds in the Peer Group, and that some of the funds in the Peer Group are part of larger fund complexes and therefore could have lower expenses and/or support lower expense caps. The Trustees also observed that the average net assets of the Fund’s class considered by Broadridge were lower than the average net assets of corresponding classes of funds in the Peer Group, and significantly lower than the average net assets of corresponding classes of funds in the Fund Universe, and that certain of those other funds also had significant assets in other classes.

 

The International Value Fund’s annual investment advisory fee (gross of fee waivers) was higher than the Peer Group and Foreign Large Value Fund Universe medians by 0.245% and 0.33%, respectively. The Trustees considered the Advisor’s assertion that the Fund warrants a higher advisory fee than the Peer Group funds generally because the Fund uses a distinct strategy involving investment in markets that are not typically covered and a focus on dividend paying companies, and that as a result, substantially more effort and specialization is required to manage the Fund. The Trustees also noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was higher than the standard fee that the Advisor charges to sub-advise separate accounts for institutional clients of its affiliate, AGP. The Trustees observed, however, that management of mutual fund assets requires compliance with certain requirements under the 1940 Act that do not apply to AGP’s institutional clients, and that the Advisor provides more services to the Fund than it does to separately managed accounts for which it serves as sub-advisor. The Trustees also considered that the Fund’s advisory fee was within the range of advisory fees paid by the other series of the Trust managed by the Advisor.

The annual total expenses paid by the Fund (net of fee waivers) for the Fund’s most recent fiscal year were higher than the Peer Group and Fund Universe medians by 0.51% and 0.54%, respectively. The Trustees noted, however, that the average net assets of the Fund’s class considered by Broadridge were significantly lower than the average net assets of corresponding classes of funds in the Peer Group and Fund Universe, and that certain of those other funds also had significant assets in other classes. The Trustees also considered the Advisor’s observation that some of the funds in the Peer Group are part of larger fund complexes and therefore could have lower expenses and/or support lower expense caps.

 

In considering the Funds’ fees and total expenses, the Board considered the Advisor’s longstanding view that each Fund is distinct from its Peer Group in some significant way, as the Advisor focuses on unhedged exposure to various countries, currencies, and commodities in a way that is not replicated by any other fund family’s products, and that this makes it difficult for Broadridge to appropriately categorize the Funds’ strategies and construct peer groups for the Funds. The Board also considered that most investors in the Funds, the majority of whom purchase shares through AGP, invest in the Funds specifically for this unique investment process and philosophy and with a long-term focus.

 

The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that based on the factors they had reviewed, the compensation payable to the Advisor under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services the Advisor provides to the Funds.

 

Profitability, Benefits to the Advisor, and Economies of Scale

The Board next considered information prepared by the Advisor relating to its costs and profits with respect to each Fund for the year ended December 31, 2025, noting that the Advisor had waived a significant portion of its advisory fee for the International Bond Fund, had waived a portion of its advisory fee for the Emerging Markets Fund, and had recouped fees it previously waived for the International Dividend Fund. Recognizing the difficulty in evaluating an investment advisor’s profitability with respect to the funds it manages in the context of an advisor with multiple lines of business, and noting that other profitability methodologies might also be reasonable, the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the profits of the Advisor from its relationships with the Funds were reasonable.

 

The Board also considered the benefits received by the Advisor as a result of the Advisor’s relationship with the Funds, other than the receipt of its investment advisory fees, including any research received from broker-dealers providing execution services to the Funds, the beneficial effects from the review by the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer of the Advisor’s compliance program, the intangible benefits of the Advisor’s association with the Funds generally, and any favorable publicity arising in connection with the Funds’ performance. The Trustees noted that although there were no advisory fee breakpoints, the asset levels of the Funds were not currently likely to lead to significant economies of scale, and that any such economies would be considered in the future as the assets of the Funds grow.

 

Conclusion

Based on these and other factors, the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that renewal of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders and, accordingly, approved the renewal of the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds.
