How did the Fund perform during the reporting period?

The Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund Service Class returned 6.75% from September 1, 2025-August 31, 2026. The Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index returned 1.89%, while the Standard & Poor’s 500 Total Return Index returned 20.38% for the same period.

From September–December 2025, the Federal Reserve lowered the fed funds rate a total of 75 basis points, from 4%-4.25% to 3.50%-3.75. The portfolio manager increased overall exposure modestly and slightly rotated among sectors in September. A managed commodity fund was added late in October, further diversifying and complementing the tactical gold trades within the Fund. The portfolio manager initiated a purchase of high yield investments and tactically adjusted equity exposure throughout the month as the stock market generally faded lower, culminating in a sharper decline on November 20th, ahead of a rebound into the end of the month. A modest rise in Treasury rates in December was likely impacted by investor perception of ongoing strength in the US economy. The net result was minimal adjustments to bond holdings in December within the Fund. In January, Treasuries traced out a jagged path, at one point reaching new 6-week highs before dropping to the lowest levels since September. The portfolio manager held bond exposures mostly steady, other than a modest increase in the emerging/global bond sector. In February, GDP slowed. Employment remained resilient, with job gains and lower unemployment. This backdrop supported Treasury prices and kept yields on a downward trend. Late in the month, oil prices rose as negotiations with Iran faltered. The portfolio manager held high yield and global bond exposures within the Fund steady. In March, the conflict in the Middle East and accompanying surge in the price of oil negatively affected US Treasuries and interest-sensitive bonds. The portfolio manager quickly decreased exposure across most asset classes. Inflationary pressures continued to weigh on the bond market in April. By mid-month, Treasuries moved higher though they subsequently slipped to lower levels late in the month. The portfolio manager added investments in mortgage/securitized credit, high yield and municipal bonds, among others. He reduced exposure by one-third from beginning of May levels. As the month went on, optimism built as news reports of a longer cease-fire to the Iranian conflict circulated. The portfolio manager put sidelined cash back to work in high yield, municipal and broader-based bond investments, a small amount of equities and an alternative fund. Sentiment improved in June after the U.S. and Iran outlined a peace deal. Soon after, new Fed Chair Warsh delivered his first post-FOMC news conference with a hawkish tone. The US dollar rallied to 52-week highs, creating risk for foreign investments, including commodities. The portfolio manager reduced exposure to these areas and added positions in municipal bonds. Middle East tension re-ignited early in June resulting in an oil price spike and inflationary fears. The portfolio manager’s reduced the Fund’s exposure in high yield and municipal bonds, and increased precious and industrial metals exposure and alternative investments. The bond market was choppy in August, The Treasury’s surprise buyback announcement briefly pushed yields lower. Warsh’s hawkish statements flattened the yield curve. The portfolio manager increased investments selectively in high yield, floating rate and foreign bonds, as well as alternative strategy funds .

Item 6. Investments. The Registrant’s schedule of investments in unaffiliated issuers is included in the Financial Statements under Item 7 of this form.

Item 7. Financial Statements and Financial Highlights for Open-End Management Investment Companies.

The Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified series of Advisors Preferred Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) organized on August 15, 2012 and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund currently offers Service Class Shares and Investor Class Shares with commencement of operations on September 1, 2004 and October 24, 2012, respectively. The Fund was reorganized on August 9, 2019 from a predecessor fund to a series of Advisors Preferred Trust, a Delaware statutory trust. The Fund is a “fund of funds”, in that the Fund will generally invest in other investment companies.

Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the respective Fund and classes are identical except for differences in their ongoing service and distribution charges. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plans. The Fund’s income, expenses (other than class specific distribution and shareholding servicing fees) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionately each day based upon the relative net assets of each class.

The Fund seeks a moderate total rate of return (income plus capital appreciation) on an annual basis. Although the Fund may invest directly in equity and fixed-income securities, it will primarily invest in such securities indirectly through securities that invest in or are a derivative of such securities, primarily including futures contracts, swap agreements, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), naked and covered options on such instruments, currencies, and other unaffiliated investment companies.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund follows the specialized accounting and reporting requirements under GAAP that are applicable to investment companies. 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 increase and decrease in net assets from operations during the fiscal year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”.

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

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

a) Investment Valuation – Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported 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 (“NOCP”). If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the last bid on the day of valuation. Financial futures, which are traded on an exchange, are valued at the last quoted sales price determined by the exchange. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. Total return swaps on exchange-listed securities shall be valued at the last quoted sales price or, in the absence of a sale, at the mean between the current bid and ask prices. Exchange listed swaps shall be valued at the last quoted sales price or, in the absence of a sale, at the mean between the current bid and ask prices. Credit default swaps are valued by a pricing agent covering the specific type of swap. Certain credit default swaps (“CDS”) and credit indices are valued independently by Markit; or if no valuation is available from a pricing agent, at the price received from the broker-dealer/counterparty that issued the swap. 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 Fund 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 Fund’s holding. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost.

The Fund 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 will be

valued using the “fair value” procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Board has delegated execution of these procedures to a fair value committee composed of one or more representatives from each of the (i) Trust, (ii) administrator, and (iii) advisor and/or sub-advisor. The committee 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 in determining a security-specific fair value. The Board reviews and ratifies the execution of this process and the resultant fair value prices at least quarterly to assure the process produces reliable results.

b) Fair Valuation Process – As noted above, the fair value committee is composed of one or more representatives from each of the (i) Trust, (ii) administrator, (iii) advisor and/or sub-advisor. The applicable investments are valued collectively via inputs from each of these groups. 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 advisor and/or sub-advisor, the prices or values available do not represent the fair value of the instrument. Factors which may cause the advisor and/or sub advisor 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; (iv) securities with respect to which an event that will affect 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 via inputs from the advisor 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 the advisor and/or sub-advisor is unable to obtain a current bid from such independent dealers or other independent parties, the fair value committee 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.

Valuation of Fund of Funds – The Fund 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 investment companies are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such investment companies. 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 each Fund will not change.

The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of all of its 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 in 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 securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following table summarizes the inputs used as of August 31, 2026, for the Fund’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

The Fund did not hold any Level 3 securities during the year ended August 31, 2026.

c) Consolidation of Subsidiaries – Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund Limited (“HFSA Fund Limited”)

The Consolidated Schedule of Investments, Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities, Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets and the Consolidated Financial Highlights of the Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund include the accounts of HFSA Fund Limited, a wholly owned and controlled subsidiary. HFSA Fund Limited is a fund incorporated as an exempted company under the companies’ law of the Cayman Islands on June 19, 2018 and is a controlled foreign corporation for tax purposes. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”) which acts as an investment vehicle in order to effect certain investments consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives and policies.

d) Swap Contracts – The Fund is subject to equity price risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and counterparty risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into various swap transactions, such as total return swaps for investment purposes or to manage interest rate, equity, or credit risk. These would be two-party contracts entered into primarily to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of returns) earned or realized on particular pre-determined investments or instruments.

Standard equity swap contracts are between two parties that agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross amount to be exchanged is calculated with respect to a “notional amount” (i.e. the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index or industry sector). Most equity swap agreements entered into by the Fund calculate the obligations of the parties on a “net basis”. Consequently, a Fund’s current obligations under a swap agreement generally will be equal to the net amount to be paid or received under the agreement based on the relative value of the positions held by each party. The Fund’s obligations are accrued daily (offset by any amounts owed to the Fund).

In a “long” equity swap agreement, the counterparty will generally agree to pay the Fund the amount, if any, by which the notional amount of the swap contract would have increased in value if the Fund had been invested in the particular securities, plus dividends that would have been received on those securities. The Fund will agree to pay the counterparty a floating rate of interest on the notional amount of the swap contract plus the amount, if any, by which the notional amount would have decreased in value had it been invested in such securities plus, in certain instances, commissions or trading spreads on the notional amounts. Thus, the return on the swap contract should be the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest paid by the Fund on the notional amount. However, in certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the counterparty will pay the Fund interest. Payments may be made at the conclusion of the contract or periodically during its term. Swap contracts do not include the delivery of securities. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the Fund’s obligations over its entitlement with respect to each swap is accrued on a daily basis and an amount of cash or liquid assets, having an aggregate net asset value at least equal to such accrued excess is maintained in a segregated account. Until a swap contract is settled in cash, the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest paid by the Fund on the notional amount are recorded as “unrealized gains or losses on swaps” and when cash is exchanged, the gain or loss is recorded as “realized gains or losses on swaps”.

The Fund may enter into swap contracts that provide the opposite return of the particular benchmark or security (“short” the index or security). The operations are similar to that of the swaps disclosed above except that the counterparty pays interest to the Fund on the notional amount outstanding and the dividends on the underlying securities reduce the return of the swap. However, in certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the Fund pays the counterparty interest. These amounts are netted with any unrealized appreciation or depreciation to determine the value of the swap. The Fund will typically enter into equity swap agreements in instances where the Advisor believes that it may be more cost effective or practical than buying a security or the securities represented by a particular index.

The Fund may enter into credit default swaps (“CDS”). CDS are typically two-party (bilateral) financial contracts that transfer credit exposure between the two parties. One party to a CDS (referred to as the credit protection “buyer”) receives credit protection or sheds credit risk, whereas the other party to a CDS (referred to as the credit protection “seller”) is selling credit protection or taking on credit risk. The seller typically receives pre-determined periodic payments from the other party. These payments are in consideration for agreeing to make compensating specific payments to the buyer should a negative credit event occur, such as (1) bankruptcy or (2) failure to pay interest or principal on a reference debt instrument, with respect to a specified issuer or one of the reference issuers in a CDS portfolio. In general, CDS may be used by the Fund to obtain credit risk exposure similar to that of a direct investment in high yield bonds.

The Fund may enter into Interest Rate Swaps. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of commitments to pay and receive interest based on a notional principal amount. The Fund may elect to pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate, or receive a fixed rate and pay a floating rate on a notional principal amount.

The amounts to be exchanged or “swapped” between parties are calculated with respect to the notional amount. Changes in the value of swap agreements are recognized as unrealized gains or losses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations by “marking to market” on a daily basis to reflect the value of the swap agreement at the end of each trading day. Payments received or paid at the beginning of the agreement are reflected as such on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities and may be referred to as upfront payments. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap agreement is recorded as a realized gain or loss on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The maximum pay-outs for these contracts are limited to the notional amount of each swap. CDS may involve greater risks than if a Fund had invested in the referenced obligation directly and are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk.

The Fund collateralizes swap agreements with cash and certain securities, if indicated on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Such collateral is held for the benefit of the counterparty in a segregated account at the Custodian to protect the counterparty against non-payment by the Fund. The Fund does not net collateral. In the event of a default by the counterparty, the Fund will seek return of this collateral and may incur certain costs exercising their rights with respect to the collateral. Amounts expected to be owed to the Fund are regularly collateralized either directly with the Fund or in a segregated account at the Custodian.

A Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty to the extent that posted collateral is insufficient. A Fund will enter into swap agreements only with large, well-capitalized and established financial institutions. The creditworthiness of each of the firms that is counterparty to a swap agreement is monitored by the Advisor. The financial statements of these counterparties may be available by accessing the SEC’s website, at www.sec.gov.

e) Stock Index Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts – The Fund may purchase and sell stock index futures contracts and options on such futures contracts. The Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against changes in the value of equities, interest rates, commodities or foreign currencies. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund

agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains and losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. As collateral for futures contracts, the Fund is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for long futures contracts or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract, but not less than the market price at which the futures contract was established, for short futures contracts.

f) Risks of Options, Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts and Short Positions – The risks inherent in the use of options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions include 1) adverse changes in the value of such instruments; 2) imperfect correlation between the price of options and futures contracts and options thereon and movements in the price of the underlying securities, index or futures contracts; 3) the possible absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument at any time; 4) the possible need to defer closing out certain positions to avoid adverse tax consequences; and 5) the possible nonperformance by the counterparty under the terms of the contract. The Fund designates all cash, cash equivalents and liquid securities as collateral for futures contracts and options on futures contracts.

g) Exchange Traded Funds – The Fund may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). Passive ETFs are a type of index fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. A passive ETF trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index. A Fund may purchase an ETF to temporarily gain exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market while awaiting purchase of underlying securities. 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.

h) Security Transactions and Related Income – Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Fund determines the gain or loss realized from the investment transactions by comparing the identified cost, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes, with the net sales proceeds. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of premium and discount, and dividends received from money market funds, is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method. Upfront payments on Credit Default Swaps are amortized over the life of the contract.

i) Expenses – Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific fund are charged to that fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable (as determined by the Board), taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the funds in the Trust.

j) Federal Income Taxes – The Fund has complied, and intends to continue to comply, with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to its shareholders sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all federal income tax. No provision for federal income taxes has been made.

For tax purposes, HFSA Fund Limited (“HFSA”) is an exempted Cayman Islands investment company. HFSA has received an undertaking from the Government of the Cayman Islands exempting it from all local income, profits, and capital gains taxes. No such taxes are levied in the Cayman Islands at the present time. For U.S. income tax purposes, HFSA is a CFC and as such is not subject to U.S. income tax. However, as a wholly-owned CFC, the net income and capital gain of the CFC, to the extent of its earnings and profits, will be included each year in the respective Fund’s investment company taxable income.

The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Consoidated Statement of Operations. During the period, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax 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 August 31, 2023 through August 31, 2025 or expected to be taken in the Fund’s August 31, 2026 year-end tax returns.

k) Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders – Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least quarterly. Distributable net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed annually. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains are recorded on ex-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 carry forwards) 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. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations, or net asset values per share of the Fund.

l) Indemnifications – The Trust indemnifies its officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of

representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities appears to be remote.

m) Market Risks – Unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues; and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

For the year ended August 31, 2026, the aggregate purchases and sales of investments (excluding short-term investments, swaps and futures contracts) amounted to $254,625,893 and $250,883,655, respectively.

The Fund uses derivative instruments as part of its principal investment strategy to achieve its investment objective. For additional discussion on the risks associated with derivative instruments refer to Note 2. For the year ended August 31 2026, the Fund invested in futures and swap contracts.

At August 31, 2026, the fair value of derivatives instruments categorized by risk was as follows:

The following is a summary of the realized gain (loss) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivatives in the Consolidated Statement of Operations categorized by risk for the year ended August 31, 2026:

The derivative instruments outstanding as of August 31, 2026, as disclosed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and the amounts of realized gain (loss) and changes in unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments during the period as disclosed above and within the Consolidated Statement of Operations serve as indicators of the volume of derivative activity for the Fund.

The Fund’s policy is to recognize a gross asset or liability equal to the unrealized gain/ (loss) for futures and gross asset or liability equal to unrealized gain/(loss) for swaps contracts. During the year ended August 31, 2026, the Fund is subject to a master netting arrangement for the swaps and futures. The following table shows additional information regarding the offsetting of assets and liabilities at August 31, 2026.

The identified cost of investments in securities owned by the Fund for federal income tax purposes and gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation, including futures and swaps, at August 31, 2026, were as follows:

The tax character of fund distributions paid for the years ended August 31, 2026 and August 31, 2025 was as follows:

As of August 31, 2026, the components of accumulated earnings/ (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

The difference between book basis and tax basis undistributed net investment income, accumulated net realized loss and unrealized appreciation from investments is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, mark-to-market adjustments on open futures and swap contracts, accrued income and expenses on swap contracts, and adjustments for the Fund’s wholly owned subsidiary.

Late year losses incurred after December 31 within the fiscal year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax purposes. The Fund incurred and elected to defer such late year losses of $926,380.

At August 31, 2026, the Fund had capital loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes available to offset future capital gains and amounts utilized as follows:

Permanent book and tax differences, primarily attributable to the tax adjustments for the Fund’s wholly owned subsidiary, resulted in reclassifications for the Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026, as follows:

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Advisor. The Advisor receives a fee, computed daily and payable monthly and applied to the Fund’s average daily net assets at an annual rate of 1.00%. In addition, the Advisor has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Hundredfold Advisors, LLC (“Sub-Advisor”) whereby the Sub-Advisor will direct investment activities of the Fund. The Sub-Advisor is paid by the Advisor and not the Fund at a rate equivalent to an annual rate of 0.65% of average daily net assets.

The fees are paid to Ceros Financial Services Inc. (the “Distributor” or “Ceros”) an affiliate of the Advisor to provide compensation for ongoing shareholder servicing and distribution-related activities or services and-or maintenance of Service Class accounts, not otherwise required to be provided by the Advisor.

Pursuant to the servicing agreement with UFS, the Fund pays UFS customary fees for providing administration, fund accounting and transfer agency services to the Fund. These fees are shown as operating services fees on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Under the terms of the Fund’s agreement with UFS, UFS pays for certain operating expenses of the Fund (routine legal fees, audit fees, regulatory document filing, state registration fees, custody fees, and insurance premiums). Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of UFS and are not paid any fees directly by the Fund for serving in such capacities.

In addition, certain affiliates of UFS provide services to each Fund as follows:

Approval of Renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund (and its subsidiary)

At an in-person Board meeting held on May 20, 2026 (the “Meeting”) the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Advisors Preferred Trust (the “Trust”), including a majority of Trustees who are not “interested persons” (the “Independent Trustees”), as such term is defined under Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, considered the renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between Advisors Preferred, LLC (the “Adviser” or “Advisors Preferred”) and the Trust, on behalf of Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund and its subsidiary (the “Fund”) or “Hundredfold Select” and “Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund, Limited.”, respectively); and the renewal of the sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) between the Adviser and Hundredfold Advisors, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser or “Hundredfold Advisors”) with respect to the Fund and its subsidiary, Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund, Limited. The Directors of Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund Limited, a wholly owned foreign subsidiary of Hundredfold Select, approved renewal of an investment advisory agreement between Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund Limited and the Adviser (the “Subsidiary Advisory Agreement”) as well as renewal of a sub-advisory agreement (the “Subsidiary Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between the Adviser and Hundredfold Advisors with respect to the Hundredfold Select Alternative Fund Limited (all together the “Agreements”). The Trustees’ and Directors’ deliberations are presented as collective deliberations as they were conducted concurrently and refences to the Board also include the Directors.

The Board reviewed and discussed the written materials that were provided by Advisors Preferred and Hundredfold Advisors in advance of the Meeting and deliberated on the renewal of the Agreements with respect to Hundredfold Select. The Board members relied upon the advice of independent legal counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Agreements with respect to Hundredfold Select. The Board conducted some of their deliberations on a joint basis for the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser given the close working relationship of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser and conducted their deliberations on a consolidated basis for the Fund and its subsidiary.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services: With respect to the nature, extent and quality of services provided, the Board reviewed the Adviser’s Form ADV, and the Sub-Adviser’s Form ADV, a description of the manner in which investment decisions, including asset allocation, sector selection and trade execution, are made for Hundredfold Select by the Sub-Adviser, a description of the services provided by the Adviser and those services provided by the Sub-Adviser and those executed by the Adviser. The Board reviewed the experience of professional personnel from both the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, performing services for the Fund,

including the team of individuals that primarily monitor and execute the investment and administration process, and the respective portfolio managers. The Board considered the depth of resources of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. Further the Board reviewed a certification from each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, certifying that each has adopted 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) and noted that each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser have adopted procedures reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons from violating such Code of Ethics.

Advisors Preferred LLC: The Adviser selects third-party providers and continually monitors their performance with respect to the Fund. The Adviser reviews daily positions and trading activity for the Fund. The Adviser maintains all counterparty agreements for the Fund. All equity, ETF and mutual fund trades are executed by Ceros Financial Services, Inc. (“Ceros”), an affiliate of the Adviser. Futures and other derivatives are not traded by Ceros. The Board noted no arbitrations or litigations involving the Adviser. Trust Counsel noted the Board is updated quarterly on any arbitration, regulatory exams, or litigation with respect to Ceros as an affiliate of the Adviser. The Board reviewed the balance sheet of the Adviser as of March 31, 2026, and the audited income statement and balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. The Board acknowledged the parent company financial support is available, as needed for the Adviser. The Board also reviewed the unaudited profit and loss comparisons for March 31, 2026 and the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Adviser reported $1.8 billion in total assets under management in active mutual funds and Ms. Ayers-Rigsby emphasized commitment from the Adviser to raise assets and revenue as discussed earlier.

The Board discussed the Adviser’s compliance program with the CCO of the Trust. The Board considered that the CCO of the Trust also serves as CCO of the Adviser, Ceros, the Funds’ distributor and The North Country Fund. The Trustees acknowledged they are confident in her abilities with respect to all positions, and Trustees were comfortable that if a conflict of interest were to arise, counsel would be called upon for a solution. The Board noted that the Adviser continues to have in place procedures which are currently working to prevent violations of applicable securities laws. The CCO confirmed that she has the support and resources to ensure the compliance procedures of the Trust are updated in accordance with current SEC rules. The Board considered that the cybersecurity risk of the Adviser is managed by Sikich LLP (a cybersecurity consultancy) with no data breaches reported. The CCO confirmed that prior to implementing any AI program, she will work closely with the Adviser’s IT provider to ensure any potential vulnerabilities are addressed, create and draft clear guidelines on its use and provide training to employees authorized to use AI. There are no plans for the Adviser nor its affiliates to use AI for any investment related management decisions. The Adviser confirmed adequate Directors & Officers Error & Omissions Professional Liability Insurance (“D&O/E&O”) is in place. Ceros, the affiliated distributor, has coverage under the D&O policy up to $2,000,000 with a $100,000 retention. Counsel noted the Board had previously reviewed the business continuity plan for the Adviser and Ceros. The Board concluded that the Adviser has qualified professionals, resources, and compliance policies essential to performing its duties under the Advisory Agreements. The Board reviewed financial statements of the Adviser and concluded it has sufficient financial resources to fulfill Trust-related obligations, based in part from additional capital from the parent.

The Board noted that the Sub-Adviser monitors investment limitations with a risk control matrix and management cash position. With respect to Hundredfold Advisors, the Board reviewed the income statement for the four months ended April 30, 2026, and the balance sheet at April 30, 2026. The Sub-Adviser was determined by the Board to be financially sound. The Board recalled that Hundredfold Advisors is 100% owned by Simply Distribute Foundation, a charitable organization, and that both Mr. Doudera and Ms. Collins donate advisory services to the Hundredfold Select, and that Spectrum Financial, Inc. (an indirect affiliate of the Sub-Adviser) supplies the support services for Hundredfold Select. The Board concluded that Hundredfold Advisors is sufficiently financially sound to continue to serve as sub-adviser to Hundredfold Select.

The Board confirmed with the Adviser’s CCO that she works with the CCO of Spectrum Financial, Inc. who also serves as CCO of Hundredfold Advisors. Ms. Holland reported she had reviewed the policies and procedures manual of Hundredfold Advisors, including their latest revisions and business continuity plans. The Board confirmed the cybersecurity risk management is the responsibility of the compliance and IT teams of Spectrum Financial, Inc. for Hundredfold Advisors and reported no breaches. Hundredfold Advisors does not rely on AI for investment selection of the Fund. The Board noted that Hundredfold Advisors has D&O/E&O insurance coverage.

Performance: The Board considered that the Adviser delegates day-to-day investment decisions to the Sub-Adviser and, therefore, does not directly control the performance of the Fund. The Board considered the Adviser’s other responsibilities under the Advisory Agreements, including with respect to trade oversight, reviewing daily positions and balance reports for the Fund, obtaining derivative agreements for the Fund and reporting to the Board. The Trustees concluded that the Adviser appears to be properly and reasonably monitoring the sub-adviser for adherence to the Fund’s investment objectives and to be carrying out its functions appropriately.

With respect to the performance, the Board reviewed the Sub-Advisers’ daily management and investment strategies and considered the updated performance of the Fund through March 31, 2026, compared to their primary benchmark and Morningstar category for various periods, including one-, three-, five, ten-year, and since inception periods as provided by the Adviser. The Board recalled the earlier detailed presentations by the portfolio managers of Hundredfold Advisors with respect to the Fund’s strategy and performance for various periods with explanations for over/under performance.

The Board reviewed the Fund’s performance for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2026, and found the Fund outperformed the Bloomberg Aggregate Bond Index for all periods reviewed. The Board compared the Fund’s performance to the Morningstar Tactical Allocation category and found the Fund’s performance lagging, for all periods except the ten-year period. The Board noted the Fund had lagged S&P 500 for all periods. The Board observed the S&P 500 is shown primarily for a market performance reference point but does not serve as direct comparison because its 100% equity composition is outside the moderate return investment mandate and other alternative investments available under the Fund’s strategy. The Board noted that based on the experience of the portfolio manager, with oversight by the Adviser, and strategy refinements, Hundredfold Advisors is expected to continue to provide satisfactory performance for the Fund and its shareholders.

Fees and Expenses: As to the costs of the services provided to Hundredfold by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, respectively, the Board reviewed and discussed the advisory fee and total operating expenses of the Fund compared to its peer group and Morningstar category or categories as presented in the meeting materials. The Board acknowledged that the Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser directly consistent with agreements and any breakpoints in effect.

The Board noted the advisory fee of 1.00% for Hundredfold Select was well within the reasonable range and below the maximum management fee for the Morningstar Tactical Allocation category. The Adviser pays Hundredfold Advisors directly 0.65% of the advisory fee on the first $150 million, then 0.80% on amounts over $150 million. The Sub-Adviser reported it does not manage other pooled vehicles of a similar nature. The Board discussed the net expenses of 1.73% for Investor Class shares and 2.64% for Service Class shares and found both well within the reasonable range of Institutional and Class C shares, respectively, of the average net expenses of the Morningstar Tactical Allocation respective lass C category. The Board concluded that the advisory fee and net expenses for Hundredfold Select are reasonable.

Profitability of Adviser: The Board considered the level of profitability for the Adviser, and if the fees were the result of arms-length negotiations with respect to the Advisory Agreements. The Trustees reviewed the levels of profits to the Adviser for the fiscal year with respect to advisory fees and from the total relationship with the Fund. They considered whether profits from the Fund were reasonable in light of services provided, including the assets levels and payments to the Sub-Adviser, and any breakpoints in fee structures for the Fund. The Board discussed the reverse breakpoint split fees applicable to Hundredfold Select, and the breakpoints.

With respect to Hundredfold Select, the Board noted the Adviser made a 17% profit from advisory fees and profits decreased to 10% when measured from the totality of relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed the split between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and found it reasonable. The Board concluded that excess profits to the Adviser from its relationship with Hundredfold Select are not of concern at this time and agreed to monitor the profits as the Fund increases in assets.

Profitability of Sub-Adviser: The Board reviewed the levels of profits to the Sub-Adviser for the fiscal year with respect to Hundredfold Select. They noted the situation for the Fund with respect to sub-advisory fees and from the total relationship with the Fund. With regards to the Fund, the Board noted that the Sub-Adviser usually charges higher fees for separately managed accounts with similar investment strategies or have fee structures that are not directly comparable. The Board, in consultation with counsel, noted that current court rulings with respect to profitability suggest up to or even over a 70% profit margin for any adviser or sub-adviser could be acceptable and not considered excessive.

The Board noted that Hundredfold Advisors is owned 100% by Simply Distribute Foundation, a non-profit. They reviewed the profitability analysis submitted by Hundredfold Advisors and noted that it receives 0.65% on assets up to and including $150 million and 0.80% for higher asset levels. The Trustees noted that Hundredfold Advisors has almost no overhead expenses, as the back office and personnel are supplied by Spectrum Financial, Inc. The Board acknowledged that as most of all Hundredfold Advisor’s portfolio management services provided by Mr. Doudera are provided at no cost, the Sub-Adviser’s profits were extremely high, but are not retained by Hundredfold Advisors, but passed on to its owner. After giving consideration to the high percentage of these profits going to charities, the Board found the high

profits were acceptable. The Board also considered that the profitability of Hundredfold Advisors would be reasonable if direct and full overhead expenses were included to cover the costs of portfolio management and support services. The Board did note, however, that Spectrum Financial, Inc. may receive a shareholder servicing fee from the Fund for providing services to its clients that are invested in the Hundredfold Select. After considering the non-conventional ways of measuring Sub-Adviser profits, and that services had been donated to the Fund to help further its charitable purpose; the Board found the level of profit from the Sub-Adviser’s relationship with the Fund was not excessive, and after charitable donations, Hundredfold Advisors does not profit from its relationship with the Fund. The Board concluded that excess profits to the Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the Fund is not of current concern.

Economies of Scale: As to the extent to which the Fund will realize economies of scale, the Adviser reported an estimate of $500 to $750 million for Hundredfold Select. The Board discussed the Adviser’s expectations for the growth in net assets of the Fund and concluded that any material economies of scale were not a concern at present assets levels. The Trustees noted economies of scale is an advisory agreement concern and is not a consideration for approval of any sub-advisory agreements. The Board agreed to revisit economies of scale as assets of the Fund continue to grow.

Conclusion: Counsel assisted the Board throughout the 15(c) review process. The Board members relied upon the advice of counsel, and their own business judgement, in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Agreements. In considering the approval, the Board noted that each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his or her conclusions.

Accordingly, having requested and received such information from the Adviser and Sub-Adviser as the Board believed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of each Agreement as appropriate; the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that, with respect to the Agreements, separately that (i) the terms of the Agreements are reasonable; (ii) the compensation payable by the Fund to Advisors Preferred under the Agreements is determined to be for investment advisory services that are not primarily intended to result in sales of shares of the Fund (iii) compensation payable under the Agreements is based on services provided that are in addition to rather than duplicative of services provided by other investment funds, ETFs, mutual funds and similar productions (iv) such compensation is determined to be fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees have considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable business judgement and (v) the Agreements are in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders
