MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS
To my fellow shareholders of Virtus Funds:
I am pleased to present this semiannual report, which reviews the performance of your Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2024.
As the outlook for inflation and interest rates improved, markets showed strength in the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. The efforts of the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) and other central banks to manage inflation appeared more likely to generate an economic “soft landing,” and there was hope for rate cuts on the horizon. Investor optimism about the possibilities for artificial intelligence (AI) also drove markets higher.
Domestic equity indexes posted strong returns for the six months ended March 31, 2024. U.S. large-capitalization stocks led the way with a return of 23.48%, as measured by the S&P 500® Index, while small-cap stocks returned 19.94%, as measured by the Russell 2000® Index. International equities also performed well, with developed markets, as measured by the MSCI EAFE® Index (net), returning 16.81%, while emerging markets, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net), returned 10.42%.
In fixed income markets, the yield on the 10-year Treasury declined to 4.20% on March 31, 2024, from 4.59% on September 30, 2023. The broader U.S. fixed income market, as represented by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.99% for the six-month period, while non-investment grade bonds, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, were up 8.75%.
Please call our customer service team at 800-243-1574 if you have any questions about the change. Thank you for entrusting the Virtus Funds with your assets.
Sincerly,
George R. Aylward
President and Trustee, Virtus Funds

VIRTUS OPPORTUNITIES TRUST
DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (Unaudited)
FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD OF October 1, 2023 TO March 31, 2024
We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a Virtus Opportunities Trust Fund discussed in this shareholder report (each, a “Fund”), you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchases of Class A shares and contingent deferred sales charges on Class C shares (except for Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund), and C1 shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution and service fees, and other expenses. Class C shares for Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund are sold without a sales charge. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are sold without sales charges and do not incur distribution and service fees. Class R6 shares also do not incur shareholder servicing fees. For further information regarding applicable sales charges, see Note 1 in the Notes to Financial Statements. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period.
Please note that the expenses shown in the accompanying tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges. Therefore, the accompanying tables are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

* Expenses are equal to the relevant Fund’s annualized expense ratio, which is net of waived fees and reimbursed expenses, if applicable, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days (183) expenses were accrued in the most recent fiscal half-year, then divided by 366 to reflect the one-half year period.
For Funds which may invest in other funds, the annualized expense ratios noted above do not reflect fees and expenses associated with any underlying funds. If such fees and expenses had been included, the expenses would have been higher.
You can find more information about a Fund’s expenses in the Financial Statements section that follows. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, refer to that Fund’s prospectus.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not your Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other mutual funds.

Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the roll-forward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the period ended March 31, 2024.

(1) Includes internally fair valued securities currently priced at zero ($0).
Securities held by the Fund with an end of period value of $325 were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 due to an increase in trading activities at period end.
Some of the Fund’s investments that were categorized as Level 3 may have been valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. If applicable, such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.
Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the roll-forward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the period ended March 31, 2024.

(1) Includes internally fair valued securities currently priced at zero ($0).
Securities held by the Fund with an end of period value of $523 were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 due to an increase in trading activities at period end.
Some of the Fund’s investments that were categorized as Level 3 may have been valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. If applicable, such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.
Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the roll-forward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the period ended March 31, 2024.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
March 31, 2024
Note 1. Organization
Virtus Opportunities Trust (the “Trust”) is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.
As of the date of this report, 18 funds of the Trust are offered for sale, of which 7 (each a “Fund” or collectively, the “Funds”) are reported in this semiannual report. Each Fund has a distinct investment objective and all of the Funds are diversified.
The Funds have the following investment objective(s):
Fund   Investment objective(s)
Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund

  High total return from both current income and capital appreciation.
Newfleet High Yield Fund

  High current income and a secondary objective of capital growth.
Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund

  To provide a high level of total return, including a competitive level of current income, while limiting fluctuations in net asset value due to changes in interest rates.
Newfleet Multi-Sector Intermediate Bond Fund

  Maximizing current income while preserving capital.
Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund

  To provide a high current income, while attempting to limit changes in the Fund’s net asset value per share caused by interest rate changes.
Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund

  High total return from both current income and capital appreciation.
Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund

  Providing a high level of current income that is exempt from federal income tax.
There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its objective(s).
All of the Funds offer Class A shares, Class C shares and Class I shares. All of the Funds with the exception of the Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund offer Class R6 shares. The Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund offers Class C1 shares.
Class A shares of Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund and Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund are sold with a front-end sales charge of 2.25% with some exceptions. Class A shares of the Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund and Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 2.75% with some exceptions. Class A shares of the Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund, Newfleet High Yield Fund, and Newfleet Multi-Sector Intermediate Bond Fund are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 3.75% with some exceptions. Generally, Class A shares are not subject to any charges by the Funds when redeemed; however, a 0.50% – 1% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) may be imposed on certain redemptions made within a certain period following purchases on which a finder’s fee has been paid. The period for which such CDSC applies for the Funds is 18 months. The CDSC period begins on the last day of the month preceding the month in which the purchase was made.
Class C shares are generally sold with a 1% CDSC (except the Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund, which are sold without a sales charge), applicable if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class C shares and any reinvested dividends and other distributions paid on such shares, will be automatically converted to Class A shares of the same Fund following a required holding period, which as of March 1, 2021, was eight years. Effective January 1, 2019, to February 28, 2021, with certain exceptions, Class C shares for all Funds (except the Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund) and Class C1 shares of the Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund and any reinvested dividends and other distributions paid on such shares, were automatically converted to Class A shares of the same Fund ten years after the purchase date. If an investor intends to purchase greater than $999,999 of Class C shares of Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund, Newfleet High Yield Fund, Newfleet Multi-Sector Intermediate Bond Fund, Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund and Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, and purchase greater than $249,999 of Class C shares of Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund, and the purchase would qualify for Class A shares with no load, then the purchase will automatically be made into a purchase of Class A shares, thus reducing expenses. Effective April 30, 2019, Class C shares of the Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund are no longer available for purchase by new or existing shareholders, except by existing shareholders through reinvestment transactions. Shareholders who own Class C shares of the Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund may continue to hold such shares until they convert to Class A shares under the existing conversion schedule, as described in the Fund’s prospectus, or may exchange them for Class C shares of another Virtus Mutual Fund as permitted by existing exchange privileges. All other Class C share characteristics of the Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund, including 12b-1 Plan fees, shareholder service fees, and conversion features are unchanged.
Class I Shares are offered primarily to clients of financial intermediaries that (i) charge such clients an ongoing fee for advisory, investment, consulting, or similar services; or (ii) have entered into an agreement with the funds’ distributor to offer Class I Shares through a no-load network or platform. Such clients may include pension and profit sharing plans, other employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations and corporations. Class I Shares are also offered to private and institutional clients of, or referred by, the adviser, a subadviser or their affiliates, and to Trustees of the funds and trustees/directors of affiliated open- and closed-end funds, and directors, officers and employees of Virtus and its affiliates. If you are eligible to purchase and do purchase Class I Shares, you will pay no sales charge at any time. There are no distribution and service fees applicable to Class I Shares. Class I shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or CDSC.
Class R6 shares are offered without a minimum initial investment to the following investors in plan level or omnibus accounts only (provided that they do not require or receive any compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments with respect to Class R6 shares): (i) qualified retirement plans, including, but not limited to, 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer-sponsored 403(b) plans, and defined benefit plans; (ii) banks and trust companies; (iii) insurance companies; (iv) financial intermediaries utilizing such shares in fee-based investment advisory programs; (v) registered investment companies; and (vi) non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Other institutional investors may be permitted to purchase

VIRTUS OPPORTUNITIES TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
March 31, 2024
Class R6 shares subject to the applicable Fund’s determination of eligibility and may be subject to a $2,500,000 minimum initial investment requirement. In addition, without a minimum initial investment requirement, Class R6 shares are available to any Trustee of the Virtus Funds and trustees/directors of affiliated open- and closed-end funds, directors, officers and employees of Virtus and its affiliates, and a spouse or domestic partner, child or minor grandchild of any such qualifying individual (in each case either individually or jointly with other investors), provided in each case that those shares are held directly with the Transfer Agent or in an eligible account. Class R6 shares do not carry sales commissions or pay Rule 12b-1 fees. No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to brokers or other entities from Fund assets or the Funds’ distributor’s or an affiliate’s resources on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares. Class R6 shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or CDSC.
The Funds may impose an annual fee on accounts having balances of less than $2,500. The small account fee may be waived in certain circumstances, as disclosed in the prospectuses and/or statement of additional information. The fees collected will be used to offset certain expenses of the Funds. These fees are reflected as “Less low balance account fees” in each Fund’s Statement of Operations for the period, as applicable.
Each class of shares has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each class bears any expenses attributable specifically to that class (“class-specific expenses”) and has exclusive voting rights with respect to any Rule 12b-1 and/or shareholder service plan (“12b-1 Plan”) approved by the Board. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are not subject to a 12b-1 Plan. Class-specific expenses may include shareholder servicing fees, sub-transfer agency fees, and fees under a 12b-1 Plan, as well as certain other expenses as designated by the Funds’ Treasurer and approved by the Board. Investment income, common operating expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are borne pro-rata by the holders of each class of shares.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
($ reported in thousands)
The Trust is an investment company that follows the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant.
A. Security Valuation
The Funds’ Board of Trustees has designated the investment adviser as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund utilizes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers into or out of Level 3 at the end of the reporting period.
   • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (security types generally include listed equities).
   • Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
   • Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
A description of the valuation techniques applied to a Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:
Equity securities are valued at the official closing price (typically last sale) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded or, if no closing price is available, at the last bid price and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Illiquid, restricted equity securities and illiquid private placements are internally fair valued by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee, and are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Certain non-U.S. securities may be fair valued in cases where closing prices are not readily available or are deemed not reflective of readily available market prices. For example, significant events (such as movement in the U.S. securities market, or other regional and local developments) may occur between the time that non-U.S. markets close (where the security is principally traded) and the time that a Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4 p.m. Eastern time) that may impact the value of securities traded in these non-U.S. markets. In such cases, the Funds fair value non-U.S. securities using an independent pricing service which considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the non-U.S. security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as ADRs, financial futures, ETFs, and certain indexes, as well as prices for similar securities. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Because the frequency of significant events is not predictable, fair valuation of certain non-U.S. common stocks may occur on a frequent basis.
Debt instruments, including convertible bonds, and restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated quotations received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For most bond types, the pricing service utilizes matrix pricing that considers one or more of the following factors: yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, current cash flows, type, activity of the underlying equities, and current day trade information, as well as dealer supplied prices. These valuations are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Structured debt instruments, such as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may also incorporate collateral analysis and utilize cash flow models for valuation and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Pricing services do not provide pricing for all securities and therefore indicative bids from dealers are utilized which are based on pricing models used by market makers in the security and are
91

generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Debt instruments that are internally fair valued by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Listed derivatives, such as options, that are actively traded are valued at the last posted settlement price from the exchange where they are principally traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative contracts, which include forward currency contracts and equity-linked instruments, do not require material subjectivity as pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at NAV. Investments in closed-end funds and ETFs are valued as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE each business day. Each is categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
A summary of the inputs used to value a Fund’s net assets by each major security type is disclosed at the end of the Schedule of Investments for each Fund. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
B. Security Transactions and Investment Income
  Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from the sale of securities are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and capital gain distributions are recognized on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. Premiums on callable debt instruments are amortized to interest income to the earliest call date using the effective interest method. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
  Dividend income from REITs is recorded using management’s estimate of the percentage of income included in distributions received from such investments based on historical information and other industry sources. The return of capital portion of the estimate is a reduction to investment income and a reduction in the cost basis of each investment which increases net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). If the return of capital distributions exceed their cost basis, the distributions are treated as realized gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year-end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.
C. Income Taxes
  Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the intention of each Fund to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
  Certain Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable based upon current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
  Management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Each Fund’s U.S. federal income tax return is generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after it is filed. State, local and/or non-U.S. tax returns and/or other filings may be subject to examination for different periods, depending upon the tax rules of each applicable jurisdiction.
D. Distributions to Shareholders
  Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP.
E. Expenses
  Expenses incurred together by a Fund and other affiliated mutual funds are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each such fund, except where allocation of direct expenses to each Fund and each such other fund, or an alternative allocation method, can be more appropriately used.
  In addition to the net annual operating expenses that a Fund bears directly, the shareholders of a Fund indirectly bear the pro-rata expenses of any underlying mutual funds in which the Fund invests.
F. Foreign Currency Transactions
  Non-U.S. investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the
foreign currency exchange rate effective at the end of the reporting period. Cost of investments is translated at the currency exchange rate effective
at the trade date. The gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the trade and settlement date of a portfolio
transaction is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. Likewise, the gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between
the date income is accrued and the date it is paid is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. For fixed income instruments, the Funds bifurcate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held and such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency transactions. For equity securities, the Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held and such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

March 31, 2024
G. Payment-In-Kind Securities
  Certain Funds may invest in payment-in-kind securities, which are debt or preferred stock securities that require or permit payment of interest in the form of additional securities. Payment-in-kind securities allow the issuer to avoid or delay the need to generate cash to meet current interest payments and, as a result, may involve greater risk than securities that pay interest currently or in cash.
H. When-Issued Purchases and Forward Commitments (Delayed Delivery)
  Certain Funds may engage in when-issued or forward commitment transactions. Securities purchased on a when-issued or forward commitment basis are also known as delayed delivery transactions. Delayed delivery transactions involve a commitment by a Fund to purchase or sell a security at a future date (ordinarily up to 90 days later). When-issued or forward commitments enable the Funds to lock in what is believed to be an attractive price or yield on a particular security for a period of time, regardless of future changes in interest rates. Each Fund records when-issued and forward commitment securities on the trade date. Each Fund maintains collateral for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or forward commitment basis begin earning interest on the settlement date.
I. Interest-Only and Principal-Only Securities
  Certain Funds may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities represent a participation in, or are secured by, or payable from, mortgage loans on real property, and may be structured in classes with rights to receive varying proportions of principal and interest. Stripped mortgage-backed securities include interest-only securities (IOs) which receive all of the interest, and principal-only securities (POs) which receive all of the principal. The market value of these securities is highly sensitive to changes in interest rates and a rapid (slow) rate of principal payments may have an adverse (positive) effect on yield to maturity. Payments received for IOs are included in interest income. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity and these adjustments are also included in interest income. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities. Any paydown gains or losses associated with the payments received are included in interest income. If the underlying mortgage assets are greater than anticipated payments of principal, a Fund may fail to recoup some or all of its initial investment in these securities.
J. Leveraged Loans
  Certain Funds may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed by a corporate, governmental, or other borrower to lenders or lending syndicates. Leveraged loans are generally non-investment grade and often involve borrowers that are highly leveraged. The Funds may invest in obligations of borrowers who are in bankruptcy proceedings. Leveraged loans are typically senior in the corporate capital structure of the borrower. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the leveraged loan. A Fund’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. When investing in loan participations, a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan participation and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. A Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the leveraged loan with the borrower. As a result, a Fund may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the leveraged loan. When a Fund purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan.
  A Fund may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. Leveraged loans may involve foreign borrowers and investments may be denominated in foreign currencies. Direct indebtedness of emerging countries involves a risk that the government entities responsible for the repayment of the debt may be unable, or unwilling, to pay the principal and interest when due.
  The leveraged loans have floating rate loan interests which generally pay interest at rates that are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. The base lending rates are generally LIBOR, SOFR, the prime rate offered by one or more U.S. banks or the certificate of deposit rate. When a leveraged loan is purchased a Fund may pay an assignment fee. On an ongoing basis, a Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a leveraged loan. Prepayment penalty fees are received upon the prepayment of a leveraged loan by a borrower. Prepayment penalty, facility, commitment, consent and amendment fees are recorded to income as earned or paid.
  A Fund may invest in both secured loans and “covenant lite” loans which have few or no financial maintenance covenants that would require a borrower to maintain certain financial metrics. The lack of financial maintenance covenants in covenant lite loans increases the risk that the applicable Fund will experience difficulty or delays in enforcing its rights on its holdings of such loans, which may result in losses, especially during a downturn in the credit cycle.
K. Securities Lending
  The Funds may loan securities to qualified brokers through a securities lending agency agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”). Under the securities lending policy, when lending securities a Fund is required to maintain collateral with a market value not less than 100% of the market value of loaned securities. Collateral is adjusted daily in connection with changes in the market value of securities on loan bringing the collateral market value in line with the required percent. Due to timing of collateral adjustments, the market value of collateral held with respect to a loaned security, may be more or less than the value of the security on loan.
  Collateral may consist of cash and securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. Cash collateral is invested in a short-term money market fund. Dividends earned on the collateral and premiums paid by the broker are recorded as income by the Fund net of fees and rebates charged/paid by BNYM for its services as securities lending agent and in connection with this securities lending program. Lending portfolio securities involves a risk of delay in the recovery of the loaned securities or in the declining value of the collateral.

Note 7. Credit and Market Risk and Asset Concentration
In July 2017, the head of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced the intention to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. However, after subsequent announcements by the FCA, the LIBOR administrator and other regulators, certain of the most widely used LIBORs continued until June 30, 2023. The ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, which is regulated and authorized by FCA, and the administrator of LIBOR, ceased publishing certain LIBOR settings on December 31, 2021. On April 3, 2023, the FCA announced its decision to require LIBOR’s administrator to continue to publish the 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month U.S. dollar settings under an unrepresentative synthetic methodology until September 30, 2024. On March 15, 2022, the Adjustable Interest Act (LIBOR) Act (the “LIBOR Act”) was enacted into law which directs the Federal Reserve Board, as a fallback mechanism, to identify benchmark rates based on SOFR to replace LIBOR in certain financial contracts after June 30, 2023. On December 16, 2022, the Federal Reserve adopted regulations implementing the LIBOR Act. The Funds may be exposed to financial instruments tied to LIBOR to determine payment obligations, financing terms, hedging strategies or investment value. The discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets and may present a material risk for certain market participants, including the Funds. Abandonment of or modifications to LIBOR could lead to significant short- and long-term uncertainty and market instability. The risks associated with this discontinuation and transition may be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. It remains uncertain the effects such changes will have on the Funds, issuers of instruments in which the Funds invest, and the financial markets generally.
Local, regional or global events such as war or military conflict, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on a Fund and its investments, including hampering the ability of each Fund’s portfolio manager(s) to invest each Fund’s assets as intended.
In countries with limited or developing markets, investments may present greater risks than in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile. The consequences of political, social, or economic changes in these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of these investments and the income they generate, as well as a Fund’s ability to repatriate such amounts.
High-yield/high-risk securities typically entail greater price volatility and/or principal and interest rate risk. There is a greater chance that an issuer will not be able to make principal and interest payments on time. Analysis of the creditworthiness of issuers of high-yield/high-risk securities may be complex, and as a result, it may be more difficult for the Adviser and/or Subadviser to accurately predict risk.
Many municipalities insure repayment for their obligations. Although bond insurance reduces the risk of loss due to default by an issuer, such bonds remain subject to the risk that the market may fluctuate for other reasons, and there is no assurance that the insurance company will meet its obligations. Insured securities have been identified in the Schedule of Investments. A real or perceived decline in creditworthiness of a bond insurer can have an adverse impact on the value of insured bonds held in the Funds.
Certain Funds may invest a high percentage of their assets in specific sectors of the market in the pursuit of their investment objectives. Fluctuations in these sectors of concentration may have a greater impact on a Fund, positive or negative, than if the Fund did not concentrate its investments in such sectors.
Note 8.  Indemnifications
Under the Trust’s organizational documents and in separate agreements between each Trustee and the Trust, its Trustees and officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust and its funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust and the Funds enter into contracts that provide a variety of indemnifications to other parties. The Trust’s and/or the Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust or the Funds and that have not occurred. However, neither the Trust nor the Funds have had prior claims or losses pursuant to these arrangements, and they expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Note 9. Restricted Securities
Restricted securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). Generally, 144A securities are excluded from this category. Each Fund will bear any costs, including those involved in registration under the 1933 Act, in connection with the disposition of such securities. At March 31, 2024, the Funds did not hold any securities that were restricted.

Note 10. Redemption Facility
($ reported in thousands)
On September 18, 2017, the Funds (with the exception of the Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund) and certain other affiliated funds entered into a $150,000 unsecured line of credit (“Credit Agreement”). On June 14, 2021, the Credit Agreement was increased to $250,000. This Credit Agreement, as amended, is with a commercial bank that allows the Funds to borrow cash from the bank to manage large unexpected redemptions and trade fails, up to a limit of one third or one fifth, as applicable, of each Fund’s total net assets in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This Credit Agreement has a scheduled termination date of July 6, 2024, however, the Funds may request at any time and from time to time to extend the termination date by 364 days. Effective March 10, 2022, interest is charged at the higher of the SOFR or the Federal Funds rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed. Commitment fees are charged on the undrawn balance. Total commitment fees paid for the six months ended March 31, 2024, are included in the “Interest expense and/or commitment fees” line on the Statements of Operations. The Funds and other affiliated funds that are parties are individually, and not jointly, liable for their particular advances, if any, under the Credit Agreement. The lending bank has the ability to require repayment of outstanding borrowings under this Credit Agreement upon certain circumstances such as an event of default.
The following Fund had outstanding loans during the six months period. The borrowings were valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

Note 11. Borrowings
($ reported in thousands)
Effective March 20, 2023, through March 27, 2024, the Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund had a Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a commercial bank (the “Bank”) that allowed the Fund to borrow cash from the Bank, up to a limit of $35,000. Borrowings under the Agreement were collateralized by investments of the Fund. The Agreement resulted in the Fund being subject to certain covenants including asset coverage and portfolio composition (among others). If the Fund failed to meet or maintain certain covenants as required under the Agreement, the Fund would have been required to repay immediately, in part or in full, the loan balance outstanding under the Agreement, necessitating the sale of securities at potentially inopportune times. Interest was charged at the higher of the SOFR or the Federal Funds rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed. Commitment fees were charged on the undrawn balance, if less than 75% of the commitment amount is outstanding as a loan to the Fund.
Effective March 28, 2024, the Fund entered into a Master Margin Loan Agreement (MMLA) with a maturity date of September 30, 2024, with another commercial bank that allows the Fund to borrow cash up to a limit of $35,000 (the “Commitment Amount”). Cash borrowings under the MMLA are secured by assets of the Fund that are held with the Fund’s custodian in a separate account. Interest is charged at the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed, and commitment fees are charged on the undrawn balance, if less than 75% of the Commitment Amount is borrowed at a given time.
Total commitment fees paid for the six months ended March 31, 2024, were $45 and are included in the “Interest expense and/or commitment fees” line on the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended March 31, 2024, the Fund did not have outstanding borrowings.

Note 13. Regulatory Matters and Litigation
From time to time, the Trust, the Funds, the Adviser and/or subadvisers and/or their affiliates may be involved in litigation and arbitration as well as examinations and investigations by various regulatory bodies, including the SEC, involving compliance with, among other things, securities laws, client investment guidelines, laws governing the activities of broker-dealers and other laws and regulations affecting their activities. At this time, the Adviser believes that the outcomes of such matters are not likely, either individually or in aggregate, to be material to these financial statements.
Note 14. Recent Accounting Pronouncement
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04 (“ASU 2020-04”), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional temporary financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the LIBOR and other interbank-offered reference rates as of the end of 2021. In March 2021, the administrator for LIBOR announced the extension of the publication of a majority of the USD LIBOR settings to June 30, 2023. On December 21, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 to defer the sunset date of ASU 2020-04 until December 31, 2024. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. Management is currently evaluating ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2020-06, but does not believe there will be a material impact.
Note 15. New Regulatory Pronouncement
In October 2022, the SEC adopted a rule and form amendments relating to tailored shareholder reports for mutual funds and ETFs; and fee information in investment company advertisements. The rule and form amendments will require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit streamlined shareholder reports that highlight key information to investors. The rule amendments will require that certain more in-depth information be made available online and available for delivery free of charge to investors on request. The amendments became effective in January 2023 and there is an 18-month transition period after the effective date of the amendment with a compliance date of July 2024.
Note 16. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds through the date the financial statements were available for issuance, and has determined that there are no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

SEIX TAX-EXEMPT BOND FUND (each a “FUND” and collectively, the “FUNDS”) BY THE
BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Unaudited)
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Virtus Opportunities Trust (the “Trust”) is responsible for determining whether to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and Virtus Investment Advisers, Inc. (“VIA”) and of each subadvisory agreement (each, a “Subadvisory Agreement” and collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”)(together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Agreements”) among the Trust, VIA and Virtus Fixed Income Advisers, LLC (“VFIA”), operating through its division Newfleet Asset Management (“Newfleet”), with respect to Virtus Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund, Virtus Newfleet High Yield Fund, Virtus Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund, Virtus Newfleet Multi-Sector Intermediate Bond Fund, Virtus Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund, and Virtus Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund; and among the Trust, VIA and VFIA, operating through its division, Seix Investment Advisors (“Seix”), with respect to Virtus Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (each of Newfleet and Seix, a “Subadviser” and collectively, the “Subadvisers”). At meetings held on November 1, 2023, and November 13-15, 2023 (the “Meetings”), the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (such Act, the “1940 Act” and such Trustees, the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the continuation of each Agreement due for renewal, as further discussed below. In addition, prior to the Meetings, the Independent Trustees met with their independent legal counsel to discuss and consider the information provided by management and submitted questions to management, and they considered the responses provided.
In connection with the approval of the Agreements, the Board requested and evaluated information provided by VIA and each Subadviser which, in the Board’s view, constituted information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether the renewal of each of the Agreements would be in the best interests of each applicable Fund and its respective shareholders. The Board also considered information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings with respect to the services provided by VIA and the Subadvisers, including quarterly performance reports prepared by management containing reviews of investment results, compliance reports and periodic presentations from the Subadvisers with respect to the Fund(s) they manage. The Board noted the affiliation of the Subadvisers with VIA and any potential conflicts of interest.
The Board was separately advised by independent legal counsel throughout the process. For each Agreement, the Board considered all the criteria with respect to the applicable Fund and its shareholders. In its deliberations, the Board considered various factors, including those discussed below, none of which were controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Independent Trustees also discussed the proposed approval of the Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.
In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Board reviewed and analyzed the factors it deemed relevant, including: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by VIA and each of the Subadvisers; (b) the performance of the Funds as compared to an appropriate peer group and an appropriate index; (c) the level and method of computing each Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees, and comparisons of the Funds’ advisory fee rates and total expenses with those of a group of funds with similar investment strategies; (d) the profitability of VIA under the Advisory Agreement; (e) any “fall-out” benefits to VIA, the Subadvisers and their affiliates (i.e., ancillary benefits realized by VIA, the Subadvisers or their affiliates from VIA’s or the Subadviser’s relationship with the Trust); (f) the anticipated effect of growth in size on each Fund’s performance and expenses; (g) fees paid to VIA and the Subadvisers by comparable accounts, as applicable; (h) possible conflicts of interest; and (i) the terms of the Agreements.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Trustees received in advance of the Meetings information provided by VIA and each Subadviser, including completed questionnaires, concerning a number of topics, including, among other items, such company’s investment philosophy, investment process and strategies, resources and personnel, operations, compliance structure and procedures, and overall performance. The Trustees noted that the Funds are managed using a “manager of managers” structure that generally involves the use of one or more subadvisers to manage some or all of a Fund’s portfolio. Under this structure, VIA is responsible for the management of the Funds’ investment programs and for evaluating and selecting subadvisers on an ongoing basis and making any recommendations to the Board regarding hiring, retaining or replacing subadvisers. In considering the Advisory Agreement with VIA, the Board considered VIA’s process for supervising and managing the Funds’ subadvisers, including (a) VIA’s ability to select and monitor subadvisers; (b) VIA’s ability to provide the services necessary to monitor the subadvisers’ compliance with the Funds’ respective investment objectives, policies and restrictions as well as provide other oversight activities; and (c) VIA’s ability and willingness to identify instances in which a subadviser should be replaced and to carry out the required changes. The Trustees also considered: (a) the experience and capability of VIA’s management and other personnel; (b) the financial condition of VIA, and whether it had the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Funds; (c) the quality of VIA’s own regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; (d) the nature, extent and quality of administrative, transfer agency and other services provided by VIA and its affiliates to the Funds; (e)

BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Unaudited) (Continued)
VIA’s supervision of the Funds’ other service providers; and (f) VIA’s risk management processes. It was noted that affiliates of VIA serve as administrator, transfer agent and distributor of the Funds. The Board also took into account its knowledge of VIA’s management and the quality of the performance of VIA’s duties through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year, as well as information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act.
With respect to the services provided by each of the Subadvisers, the Board considered information provided to the Board by each Subadviser, as well as information provided throughout the past year. With respect to the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board noted that each Subadviser provided portfolio management, compliance with the respective Fund’s(s’) investment policies and procedures, compliance with applicable securities laws and assurances thereof. The Board also noted that VIA’s and each Subadviser’s management of the respective Fund(s) is subject to the oversight of the Board and must be carried out in accordance with the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions set forth in the Fund’s(s’) prospectuses and statement of additional information. In considering the renewal of the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board also considered each Subadviser’s investment management process, including (a) the experience and capability of the Subadviser’s management and other personnel committed by the Subadviser to the respective Fund(s); (b) the financial condition of the Subadviser; (c) the quality of the Subadviser’s regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; and (d) the Subadviser’s trading practices. The Board noted each Subadviser’s regulatory history, including whether it was currently involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate.
After considering all of the information provided to them, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by VIA and each Subadviser were satisfactory and that there was a reasonable basis on which to conclude that each would continue to provide a high quality of investment services to the applicable Fund(s).
Investment Performance
The Board considered performance reports and discussions at Board meetings throughout the year, as well as a report for the Funds prepared by Broadridge (the “Broadridge Report”), an independent third party provider of investment company data, furnished in connection with the contract renewal process. The Broadridge Report presented each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group of other mutual funds (the “Performance Universe”) and relevant indexes, as selected by Broadridge. The Board also considered performance information presented by management and took into account management’s discussion of the same, including the effect of market conditions on each Fund’s performance. The Board noted that it also reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both the Funds’ performance results and portfolio compositions, as well as each Subadviser’s investment strategy(ies). The Board noted VIA’s expertise and resources in monitoring the performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance of each Subadviser. The Board also noted each Subadviser’s performance record with respect to each applicable Fund. The Board was mindful of VIA’s focus on each Subadviser’s performance and noted VIA’s performance in monitoring and responding to any performance issues with respect to the Funds. The Board also took into account its discussions with management regarding factors that contributed to the performance of each Fund.
The Board considered, among other performance data, the information set forth below with respect to the performance of each Fund for the period ended March 31, 2023. The Board also reviewed comparisons of each Fund’s contractual and net management fee and net total expense levels to those of its peer universe when considering Fund performance.
Virtus Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods.
Virtus Newfleet High Yield Fund. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1-year period and outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for the 1- and 10-year periods and outperformed its benchmark for the 3- and 5-year periods.
Virtus Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods.
Virtus Newfleet Multi-Sector Intermediate Bond Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods.

Virtus Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1-year period and outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for the 1- and 5-year periods and outperformed its benchmark for the 3- and 10-year periods.
Virtus Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed its benchmark for the 1- and 3-year periods and underperformed its benchmark for the 5- and 10-year periods.
Virtus Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1-, 5- and 10-year periods and underperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 3-year period. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for the 1-, 3- 5- and 10-year periods.
The Board also considered management’s discussion about the reasons for each applicable Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group or benchmark. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded that each Fund’s overall performance, taking into account, reasons discussed for certain Funds’ underperformance and/or actions taken to address underperformance, was satisfactory.
Management Fees and Total Expenses
The Board considered the fees charged to the Funds for advisory services as well as the total expense levels of the Funds. This information included comparisons of each Fund’s contractual and net management fee and net total expense level to those of its peer universe (the “Expense Universe”) and ranked according to quintile (the first quintile being lowest and, therefore, best in these expense component rankings, and fifth being highest and, therefore, worst in these expense component rankings). In comparing each Fund’s net management fee to that of comparable funds, the Board noted that in the materials presented by management such fee was comprised of advisory and administration fees. The Board also noted that all of the Funds had expense caps in place to limit the total expenses incurred by the Funds and their shareholders, and that VIA had proposed to lower the expense caps in place for Class A, C and I shares of Virtus Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund, Virtus Newfleet High Yield Fund and Virtus Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund. The Board also noted that the subadvisory fees were paid by VIA out of its advisory fees rather than paid separately by the Funds. In this regard, the Board took into account management’s discussion with respect to the advisory/subadvisory fee structure, including the amount of the advisory fee retained by VIA after payment of a subadvisory fee. The Board also took into account the size of each of the Funds and the impact on expenses and economies of scale. The Subadvisers provided, and the Board considered, fee information of comparable accounts managed by the Subadvisers, as applicable.
In addition to the foregoing, the Board considered, among other data, the information set forth below with respect to each Fund’s fees and expenses. In each case, the Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including the type and size of the Fund relative to the other funds in its Expense Universe.
Virtus Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the first quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.
Virtus Newfleet High Yield Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the first quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.
Virtus Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the first quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.
Virtus Newfleet Multi-Sector Intermediate Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the third quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.
Virtus Newfleet Multi-Sector Short Term Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee and net total expenses after waivers were each in the fifth quintile.
Virtus Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the first quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.
Virtus Seix Tax-Exempt Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the first quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.

SEIX TAX-EXEMPT BOND FUND (each a “FUND” and collectively, the “FUNDS”) BY THE
BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Board concluded that the advisory and subadvisory fees for each Fund, including with any proposed amendments, were fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made for services of the same nature and quality and the other factors considered. The Board also approved the proposed lower expense caps to limit the total expenses of Class A, C and I shares of Virtus Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund, Virtus Newfleet High Yield Fund and Virtus Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund.
Profitability
The Board also considered certain information relating to profitability that had been provided by VIA. In this regard, the Board considered information regarding the overall profitability, as well as on a fund-by-fund basis, of VIA for its management of the Funds and other funds of the Trust, as well as its profits and those of its affiliates for managing and providing other services to the Trust, such as distribution, transfer agency and administrative services provided to the Funds by VIA affiliates. In addition to the fees paid to VIA and its affiliates, including the Subadvisers, the Board considered any other benefits derived by VIA or its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. The Board reviewed the methodology used to allocate costs to each Fund, taking into account the fact that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective and various allocation methodologies may each be reasonable while producing different results. The Board concluded that the profitability to VIA and its affiliates from each Fund was reasonable in light of the quality of the services rendered to the Funds by VIA and its affiliates as well as other factors.
In considering the profitability to the Subadvisers in connection with their relationships to the Funds, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreements are paid by VIA out of the fees that VIA receives under the Advisory Agreement, so that Fund shareholders are not directly impacted by those fees. In considering the reasonableness of the fees payable by VIA to the Subadvisers, the Board noted that, because such Subadvisers are affiliates of VIA, such profitability might be directly or indirectly shared by VIA. The Board concluded that the profitability to the Subadvisers from each Fund was reasonable in light of the quality of the services rendered to the Funds by the Subadvisers as well as other factors.
Economies of Scale
The Board received and discussed information concerning whether VIA realizes economies of scale as the Funds’ assets grow. The Board noted that the management fees for all of the Funds included breakpoints based on assets under management, and that expense caps were also in place for the Funds. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of each Fund’s management fee and subadvisory fee structure. The Board also took into account the current sizes of the Funds. The Board also noted that VIA had agreed to implement an extension of each Fund’s expense cap through January 31, 2025, and that VIA had agreed to lower the expense caps applicable to Class A, C and I shares of Virtus Newfleet Core Plus Bond Fund, Virtus Newfleet High Yield Fund and Virtus Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund. The Board then concluded that no changes to the advisory fee structure of the Funds with respect to economies of scale were necessary at this time. The Board noted that VIA and the Funds may realize certain economies of scale if the assets of the Funds were to increase, particularly in relationship to certain fixed costs, and that shareholders of the Funds would have an opportunity to benefit from these economies of scale.
With respect to whether the Subadvisers realize economies of scale as the Funds’ assets grow, the Board noted that because the subadvisory fee rate paid by VIA to each Subadviser was a percentage of the net advisory fee, both any increase in the advisory fee due to an increase in assets and any decrease in the advisory fee due to the implementation of expense caps would affect the subadvisory fees paid to the Subadvisers. As a result, the Board concluded that the Subadvisers would share in any economies of scale realized by VIA.
Other Factors
The Board considered other benefits that may be realized by VIA and each Subadviser and their respective affiliates from their relationships with the Fund(s). Among them, the Board recognized that VP Distributors, LLC, an affiliate of VIA and the Subadvisers, serves as the distributor for the Trust, and, as such, receives payments pursuant to Rule 12b-1 from the Funds to compensate it for providing selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Trust’s assets and corresponding benefits from such growth, including economies of scale. The Board noted that an affiliate of VIA and the Subadvisers also provides administrative and transfer agency services to the Trust. The Board noted management’s discussion of the fact that, while the Subadvisers are affiliates of VIA, there are no other direct benefits to the Subadvisers or VIA in providing investment advisory services to the Fund(s), other than the fees to be earned under the applicable Agreement(s). There may be certain indirect benefits gained, including to the extent that serving the Fund(s) could provide the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional portfolios of the Trust or certain reputational benefits.

MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS
To my fellow shareholders of Virtus Funds:
I am pleased to present this semiannual report, which reviews the performance of your Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2024.
As the outlook for inflation and interest rates improved, markets showed strength in the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. The efforts of the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) and other central banks to manage inflation appeared more likely to generate an economic “soft landing,” and there was hope for rate cuts on the horizon. Investor optimism about the possibilities for artificial intelligence (AI) also drove markets higher.
Domestic equity indexes posted strong returns for the six months ended March 31, 2024. U.S. large-capitalization stocks led the way with a return of 23.48%, as measured by the S&P 500® Index, while small-cap stocks returned 19.94%, as measured by the Russell 2000® Index. International equities also performed well, with developed markets, as measured by the MSCI EAFE® Index (net), returning 16.81%, while emerging markets, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net), returned 10.42%.
In fixed income markets, the yield on the 10-year Treasury declined to 4.20% on March 31, 2024, from 4.59% on September 30, 2023. The broader U.S. fixed income market, as represented by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.99% for the six-month period, while non-investment grade bonds, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, were up 8.75%.
We are pleased to note that, during the reporting period, Sustainable Growth Advisers, LP (SGA) was appointed subadviser of the renamed Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund.
Please call our customer service team at 800-243-1574 if you have any questions about the change. Thank you for entrusting the Virtus Funds with your assets.
Sincerly,
George R. Aylward
President and Trustee, Virtus Funds

VIRTUS OPPORTUNITIES TRUST
DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (Unaudited)
FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD OF October 1, 2023 TO March 31, 2024
We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a Virtus Opportunities Trust Fund discussed in this shareholder report (each, a “Fund”), you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchases of Class A shares and contingent deferred sales charges on Class C shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution and service fees, and other expenses. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are sold without sales charges and do not incur distribution and service fees. Class R6 shares also do not incur shareholder servicing fees. For further information regarding applicable sales charges, see Note 1 in the Notes to Financial Statements. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period.
Please note that the expenses shown in the accompanying tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges. Therefore, the accompanying tables are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not your Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other mutual funds.

Note 1. Organization
Virtus Opportunities Trust (the “Trust”) is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.
As of the date of this report, 18 funds of the Trust are offered for sale, of which 8 (each a “Fund” or collectively, the “Funds”) are reported in this semiannual report. Each Fund has a distinct investment objective and all of the Funds except the Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund and KAR Developing Markets Fund are diversified.
The Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund is a fund of funds whose primary investment strategy involves investing in other investment companies, such as ETFs and other mutual funds.
The Funds have the following investment objective(s):
Fund   Investment objective(s)
Duff & Phelps Global Infrastructure Fund

  Capital appreciation and current income.
Duff & Phelps Global Real Estate Securities Fund

  Long-term capital appreciation, with a secondary investment objective of income.
Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund

  Long-term capital appreciation.
Duff & Phelps Real Estate Securities Fund

  Capital appreciation and income with approximately equal emphasis.
KAR Developing Markets Fund

  Capital appreciation.
KAR Emerging Markets Small-Cap Fund

  Capital appreciation.
KAR International Small-Mid Cap Fund

  Capital appreciation.
SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund

  Capital appreciation.
There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its objective(s).
All of the Funds offer Class A shares, Class C shares, Class I shares and Class R6 shares.
Class A shares of the Funds are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50% with some exceptions. Generally, Class A shares are not subject to any charges by the Funds when redeemed; however, a 0.50% – 1% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) may be imposed on certain redemptions made within a certain period following purchases on which a finder’s fee has been paid. The period for which such CDSC applies for the Funds is 18 months. The CDSC period begins on the last day of the month preceding the month in which the purchase was made.
Class C shares are generally sold with a 1% CDSC, applicable if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class C shares and any reinvested dividends and other distributions paid on such shares, will be automatically converted to Class A shares of the same Fund following a required holding period, which as of March 1, 2021, was eight years. Effective January 1, 2019 to February 28, 2021, with certain exceptions, Class C shares and any reinvested dividends and other distributions paid on such shares, were automatically converted to Class A shares of the same Fund ten years after the purchase date. If an investor intends to purchase greater than $999,999 of Class C shares, and the purchase would qualify for Class A shares with no load, then the purchase will automatically be made into a purchase of Class A shares, thus reducing expenses.
Class I Shares are offered primarily to clients of financial intermediaries that (i) charge such clients an ongoing fee for advisory, investment, consulting, or similar services; or (ii) have entered into an agreement with the funds’ distributor to offer Class I Shares through a no-load network or platform. Such clients may include pension and profit sharing plans, other employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations and corporations. Class I Shares are also offered to private and institutional clients of, or referred by, the adviser, a subadviser or their affiliates, and to Trustees of the funds and trustees/directors of affiliated open- and closed-end funds, and directors, officers and employees of Virtus and its affiliates. If you are eligible to purchase and do purchase Class I Shares, you will pay no sales charge at any time. There are no distribution and service fees applicable to Class I Shares. Class I Shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or CDSC.
Class R6 shares are offered without a minimum initial investment to the following investors in plan level or omnibus accounts only (provided that they do not require or receive any compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments with respect to Class R6 shares): (i) qualified retirement plans, including, but not limited to, 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer-sponsored 403(b) plans, and defined benefit plans; (ii) banks and trust companies; (iii) insurance companies; (iv) financial intermediaries utilizing such shares in fee-based investment advisory programs; (v) registered investment companies; and (vi) non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Other institutional investors may be permitted to purchase Class R6 shares subject to the applicable Fund’s determination of eligibility and may be subject to a $2,500,000 minimum initial investment requirement. In addition, without a minimum initial investment requirement, Class R6 shares are available to any Trustee of the Virtus Funds and trustees/directors of affiliated open- and closed-end funds, directors, officers and employees of Virtus and its affiliates, and a spouse or domestic partner, child or minor grandchild of any such qualifying individual (in each case either individually or jointly with other investors), provided in each case that those shares are held directly with the Transfer Agent or in an eligible account. Class R6 shares do not carry sales commissions or pay Rule 12b-1 fees. No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to brokers or other entities from Fund assets or the Funds’ distributor’s or an affiliate’s resources on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares. Class R6 shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or CDSC.
The Funds may impose an annual fee on accounts having balances of less than $2,500. The small account fee may be waived in certain circumstances, as disclosed in the prospectuses and/or statement of additional information. The fees collected will be used to offset certain expenses of the Funds. These fees are reflected as “Less low balance account fees” in each Fund’s Statement of Operations for the period, as applicable.

Each class of shares has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each class bears any expenses attributable specifically to that class (“class-specific expenses”) and has exclusive voting rights with respect to any Rule 12b-1 and/or shareholder service plan (“12b-1 Plan”) approved by the Board. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are not subject to a 12b-1 Plan. Class-specific expenses may include shareholder servicing fees, sub-transfer agency fees, and fees under a 12b-1 Plan, as well as certain other expenses as designated by the Funds’ Treasurer and approved by the Board. Investment income, common operating expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are borne pro-rata by the holders of each class of shares.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
($ reported in thousands)
The Trust is an investment company that follows the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant.
A. Security Valuation
  The Funds’ Board of Trustees has designated the investment adviser as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund utilizes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers into or out of Level 3 at the end of the reporting period.
   • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (security types generally include listed equities).
   • Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment
  speeds, credit risk, etc.).
   • Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee’s own assumptions
  in determining the fair value of investments).
A description of the valuation techniques applied to a Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:
Equity securities are valued at the official closing price (typically last sale) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded or, if no closing price is available, at the last bid price and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Illiquid, restricted equity securities and illiquid private placements are internally fair valued by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee, and are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Certain non-U.S. securities may be fair valued in cases where closing prices are not readily available or are deemed not reflective of readily available market prices. For example, significant events (such as movement in the U.S. securities market, or other regional and local developments) may occur between the time that non-U.S. markets close (where the security is principally traded) and the time that a Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4 p.m. Eastern time) that may impact the value of securities traded in these non-U.S. markets. In such cases, the Funds fair value non-U.S. securities using an independent pricing service which considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the non-U.S. security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as ADRs, financial futures, ETFs, and certain indexes, as well as prices for similar securities. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Because the frequency of significant events is not predictable, fair valuation of certain non-U.S. common stocks may occur on a frequent basis.
Debt instruments, including convertible bonds, and restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated quotations received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For most bond types, the pricing service utilizes matrix pricing that considers one or more of the following factors: yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, current cash flows, type, activity of the underlying equities, and current day trade information, as well as dealer supplied prices. These valuations are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Structured debt instruments, such as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may also incorporate collateral analysis and utilize cash flow models for valuation and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Pricing services do not provide pricing for all securities and therefore indicative bids from dealers are utilized which are based on pricing models used by market makers in the security and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Debt instruments that are internally fair valued by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at NAV. Investments in closed-end funds and ETFs are valued as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE each business day. Each is categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
A summary of the inputs used to value a Fund’s net assets by each major security type is disclosed at the end of the Schedule of Investments for each Fund. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
B. Security Transactions and Investment Income
  Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from the sale of securities are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and capital gain distributions are recognized on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as
38


VIRTUS OPPORTUNITIES TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
March 31, 2024
  a Fund is notified. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. Premiums on callable debt instruments are amortized to interest income to the earliest call date using the effective interest method. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
  Dividend income from REITs is recorded using management’s estimate of the percentage of income included in distributions received from such investments based on historical information and other industry sources. The return of capital portion of the estimate is a reduction to investment income and a reduction in the cost basis of each investment which increases net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). If the return of capital distributions exceed their cost basis, the distributions are treated as realized gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year-end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.
C. Income Taxes
  Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the intention of each Fund to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
  Certain Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable based upon current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
  Management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Each Fund’s U.S. federal income tax return is generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after it is filed. State, local and/or non-U.S. tax returns and/or other filings may be subject to examination for different periods, depending upon the tax rules of each applicable jurisdiction.
D. Distributions to Shareholders
  Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP.
E. Expenses
  Expenses incurred together by a Fund and other affiliated mutual funds are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each such fund, except where allocation of direct expenses to each Fund and each such other fund, or an alternative allocation method, can be more appropriately used.
  In addition to the net annual operating expenses that a Fund bears directly, the shareholders of a Fund indirectly bear the pro-rata expenses of any underlying mutual funds in which the Fund invests.
F. Foreign Currency Transactions
  Non-U.S. investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the foreign currency exchange rate effective at the end of the reporting period. Cost of investments is translated at the currency exchange rate effective at the trade date. The gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the trade and settlement date of a portfolio transaction is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. Likewise, the gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the date income is accrued and the date it is paid is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. For fixed income instruments, the Funds bifurcate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held and such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency transactions. For equity securities, the Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held and such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
G. Securities Lending
  The Funds may loan securities to qualified brokers through a securities lending agency agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”). Under the securities lending policy, when lending securities a Fund is required to maintain collateral with a market value not less than 100% of the market value of loaned securities. Collateral is adjusted daily in connection with changes in the market value of securities on loan bringing the collateral market value in line with the required percent. Due to timing of collateral adjustments, the market value of collateral held with respect to a loaned security, may be more or less than the value of the security on loan.
  Collateral may consist of cash and securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. Cash collateral is invested in a short-term money market fund. Dividends earned on the collateral and premiums paid by the broker are recorded as income by the Fund net of fees and rebates charged/paid by BNYM for its services as securities lending agent and in connection with this securities lending program. Lending portfolio securities involves a risk of delay in the recovery of the loaned securities or in the declining value of the collateral.
  Securities lending transactions are entered into by each Fund under a Master Securities Lending Agreement (“MSLA”) which permits the Fund, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts to be received and create one single net payment due to or from the Fund.
  As of March 31, 2024 none of the Funds were lending under the agreement with BNYM.

Note 7. Credit and Market Risk and Asset Concentration
In July 2017, the head of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced the intention to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. However, after subsequent announcements by the FCA, the LIBOR administrator and other regulators, certain of the most widely used LIBORs continued until June 30, 2023. The ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, which is regulated and authorized by FCA, and the administrator of LIBOR, ceased publishing certain LIBOR settings on December 31, 2021. On April 3, 2023, the FCA announced its decision to require LIBOR’s administrator to continue to publish the 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month U.S. dollar settings under an unrepresentative synthetic methodology until September 30, 2024. On March 15, 2022, the Adjustable Interest Act (LIBOR) Act (the “LIBOR Act”) was enacted into law which directs the Federal Reserve Board, as a fallback mechanism, to identify benchmark rates based on SOFR to replace LIBOR in certain financial contracts after June 30, 2023. On December 16, 2022, the Federal Reserve adopted regulations implementing the LIBOR Act. The Funds may be exposed to financial instruments tied to LIBOR to determine payment obligations, financing terms, hedging strategies or investment value. The discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets and may present a material risk for certain market participants, including the Funds. Abandonment of or modifications to LIBOR could lead to significant short- and long-term uncertainty and market instability. The risks associated with this discontinuation and transition may be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. It remains uncertain the effects such changes will have on the Funds, issuers of instruments in which the Funds invest, and the financial markets generally.
Local, regional or global events such as war or military conflict, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on a Fund and its investments, including hampering the ability of each Fund’s portfolio manager(s) to invest each Fund’s assets as intended.
Emerging market countries typically have economic and political systems that are less fully developed, and can be expected to be less stable than those of more developed countries. For example, the economies of such countries can be subject to rapid and unpredictable rates of inflation or deflation. Since these markets are often small, they may be more likely to suffer sharp and frequent price changes or long-term price depression because of adverse publicity, investor perceptions or the actions of a few large investors. They may also have policies that restrict investment by foreigners, or that prevent foreign investors from withdrawing their money at will.
Certain emerging markets may also face other significant internal or external risks, including the risk of war and civil unrest. Each of these factors can affect the value and liquidity of the assets of a Fund. Failure to generate adequate earnings from foreign trade would make it difficult for an emerging market country to service foreign debt. Disruptions resulting from social and political factors may cause the securities markets of emerging market countries to close. If this were to occur, the liquidity and value of a Fund’s assets invested in corporate debt obligations of emerging market companies would decline.
The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. For example, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact a Fund’s liquidity and performance.
Sanctions threatened or imposed may result in a decline in the value and liquidity of a Fund’s assets. The securities of a Fund may be deemed to have a zero value. A Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If a Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions,
48


VIRTUS OPPORTUNITIES TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
March 31, 2024
such sales may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with a Fund’s investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on a Fund’s liquidity.
For all these reasons, investments in emerging markets may be considered speculative. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a particular emerging market, the Fund will be more vulnerable to financial, economic, political and other developments in that country, and conditions that negatively impact that country will have a greater impact on the Fund as compared with a fund that does not have its holdings concentrated in a particular country.
Certain Funds may invest a high percentage of their assets in specific sectors of the market in the pursuit of their investment objectives. Fluctuations in these sectors of concentration may have a greater impact on a Fund, positive or negative, than if the Fund did not concentrate its investments in such sectors.

Note 8.  Indemnifications
Under the Trust’s organizational documents and in separate agreements between each Trustee and the Trust, its Trustees and officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust and its funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust and the Funds enter into contracts that provide a variety of indemnifications to other parties. The Trust’s and/or the Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust or the Funds and that have not occurred. However, neither the Trust nor the Funds have had prior claims or losses pursuant to these arrangements, and they expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Note 9. Restricted Securities
Restricted securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). Generally, 144A securities are excluded from this category. Each Fund will bear any costs, including those involved in registration under the 1933 Act, in connection with the disposition of such securities.
At March 31, 2024, the Funds did not hold any securities that were restricted.
Note 10. Redemption Facility
($ reported in thousands)
On September 18, 2017, the Funds and certain other affiliated funds entered into a $150,000 unsecured line of credit (“Credit Agreement”). On June 14, 2021, the Credit Agreement was increased to $250,000. This Credit Agreement, as amended, is with a commercial bank that allows the Funds to borrow cash from the bank to manage large unexpected redemptions and trade fails, up to a limit of one-third or one-fifth, as applicable, of each Fund’s total net assets in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This Credit Agreement has a scheduled termination date of July 6, 2024, however, the Funds may request at any time and from time to time to extend the termination date by 364 days. Effective March 10, 2022, interest is charged at the higher of the SOFR or the Federal Funds rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed. Commitment fees are charged on the undrawn balance. Total commitment fees paid for the six months ended March 31, 2024, are included in the “Interest expense and/or commitment fees” line on the Statements of Operations. The Funds and other affiliated funds that are parties are individually, and not jointly, liable for their particular advances, if any, under the Credit Agreement. The lending bank has the ability to require repayment of outstanding borrowings under this Credit Agreement upon certain circumstances such as an event of default. At March 31, 2024, the Funds did not have outstanding borrowings.

Note 12. Regulatory Matters and Litigation
From time to time, the Trust, the Funds, the Adviser and/or subadvisers and/or their affiliates may be involved in litigation and arbitration as well as examinations and investigations by various regulatory bodies, including the SEC, involving compliance with, among other things, securities laws, client investment guidelines, laws governing the activities of broker-dealers and other laws and regulations affecting their activities. At this time, the Adviser believes that the outcomes of such matters are not likely, either individually or in aggregate, to be material to these financial statements.
Note 13. New Regulatory Pronouncement
In October 2022, the SEC adopted a rule and form amendments relating to tailored shareholder reports for mutual funds and ETFs; and fee information in investment company advertisements. The rule and form amendments will require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit streamlined shareholder reports that highlight key information to investors. The rule amendments will require that certain more in-depth information be made available online and available for delivery free of charge to investors on request. The amendments became effective in January 2023 and there is an 18-month transition period after the effective date of the amendment with a compliance date of July 2024.

CONSIDERATION OF SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR VIRTUS SGA EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND (F/K/A VIRTUS VONTOBEL EMERGING MARKETS OPPORTUNITIES FUND) (the “FUND”) BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Unaudited)
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Virtus Opportunities Trust (the “Trust”) is responsible for determining whether to approve the establishment and continuation of advisory and subadvisory agreements for the Trust. At a meeting held on November 13-15, 2023 (the “Meeting”), the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (such Act, the “1940 Act” and such Trustees, the “Independent Trustees”), approved the proposal to replace Vontobel Asset Management, Inc. with Sustainable Growth Advisers, LP (the “Subadviser”) as subadviser to the Fund and approved a new investment subadvisory agreement with the Subadviser (the “New Subadvisory Agreement”). In connection with the appointment of the Subadviser, the Board also considered and approved the name change from Virtus Vontobel Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund to Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund. The Independent Trustees were separately advised by independent legal counsel throughout the process. Throughout the process, the Board also asked questions of and requested additional information from management.
In considering the approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement, the Board requested and evaluated information provided by Virtus Investment Advisers, Inc. (“VIA”) as the Fund’s investment adviser and by the Subadviser which, in the Board’s view, constituted information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether the New Subadvisory Agreement would be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
The Board considered all the criteria separately with respect to the Fund and its shareholders. In their deliberations, the Trustees considered various factors, including those discussed below, none of which were controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Independent Trustees also discussed the proposals in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.
Basis for the Board’s Approval
In making its determination with respect to the New Subadvisory Agreement, the Board considered various factors, including:
Nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided. The Trustees received in advance of the meeting information provided by the Subadviser, in the form of an extensive questionnaire concerning a number of topics, including its investment philosophy, resources, operations and compliance structure. The Trustees noted that the Subadviser would provide portfolio management, compliance with the Fund’s investment policies and procedures, compliance with applicable securities laws, and assurances thereof. The Trustees reviewed biographical information for the portfolio managers who would provide services under the New Subadvisory Agreement. In considering the approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement, the Trustees considered the Subadviser’s investment management process, including (a) the experience and capability of the Subadviser’s management and other personnel committed by the Subadviser to the Fund; (b) the quality of the Subadviser’s regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; and (c) the Subadviser’s brokerage and trading practices. The Board also took into account its knowledge of the Subadviser’s services and the quality of the performance of its duties with respect to other Virtus Funds. After considering all of the information provided to them, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Subadviser to the Fund were satisfactory and that there was a reasonable basis on which to conclude that the Subadviser would provide a high quality of investment services to the Fund.
Investment Performance. The Board considered the performance of the Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Growth Fund, which is a series of Virtus Equity Trust that is managed by the proposed Subadviser compared to the Fund. In this regard they noted that the Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Growth Fund had outperformed the Fund for the year-to-date, one-year and three-year periods ended September 30, 2023. The Board also noted that Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Growth Fund performed better than the Fund versus the Funds’ benchmark, MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The Board was satisfied with the proposed Subadviser’s performance.
Management Fees and Expenses. The Board noted that the Fund’s management fee was not expected to change, and the Fund has expense caps in place to limit the total expenses incurred by the Fund and its shareholders. The Board also noted that the Fund’s investment adviser had agreed to further limit the Fund’s total expenses through January 31, 2025 (subject to the same terms and conditions as the existing limitations), so that Class A shares would be limited to 1.48% of net assets, Class C shares would be limited to 2.23% of net assets, Class I shares would be limited to 1.23% of net assets, and Class R6 shares would be limited to 0.98% of net assets. The Board took into account that the Fund’s subadvisory fees are paid by the Adviser and not by the Fund, so that the Fund’s shareholders would not be directly impacted by those fees. The Board concluded that the proposed subadvisory fees were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be provided by the Subadviser and all factors considered.
Profitability and Economies of Scale. In considering the projected profitability to the Subadviser in connection with its relationship to the Fund, the Board noted that the fees under the New Subadvisory Agreement would be paid by VIA out of the advisory fees that it receives under the Advisory Agreement and not by the Fund. The Board also noted that it had previously determined that the advisory fees paid to VIA were reasonable, and that as a result of the agreement to further reduce the Fund’s total expenses VIA would receive less under the Advisory Agreement than the amount previously reviewed. In considering the reasonableness of the fees payable by VIA to the Subadviser, the Board noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of VIA, such profitability might be directly or indirectly shared by VIA. As a result, the expected profitability to the Subadviser of its relationship with the Fund was not a material factor in the Board’s
51


CONSIDERATION OF SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR VIRTUS SGA EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND (F/K/A VIRTUS VONTOBEL EMERGING MARKETS OPPORTUNITIES FUND) (the “FUND”) BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Unaudited) (Continued)
deliberations at this time. For similar reasons, the Board did not consider the potential economies of scale in the Subadviser’s management of the Fund to be a material factor in its consideration at this time.
Other Benefits. The Board considered other benefits that may be realized by the Subadviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund. Among them, the Board recognized that VP Distributors, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser and Subadviser, serves as the principal underwriter for the Trust, and, as such, receives payments pursuant to Rule 12b-1 from the Fund to compensate it for providing selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Fund’s assets and corresponding benefits from such growth, including economies of scale. The Board also noted that an affiliate of the Adviser and Subadviser provides administrative and transfer agency services to the Trust. The Board noted management’s discussion of the fact that, while the Subadviser is an affiliate of VIA, there are no other direct benefits to the Subadviser in providing subadvisory services to the Fund, other than the fee to be earned under the New Subadvisory Agreement. There may be certain intangible benefits gained to the extent that serving the Fund could provide the opportunity to provide subadvisory services to additional series of the Trust or certain reputational benefits.
Based on all of the foregoing considerations, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, determined that approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the New Subadvisory Agreement with respect to the Fund.

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Virtus Opportunities Trust (the “Trust”) is responsible for determining whether to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and Virtus Investment Advisers, Inc. (“VIA”), with respect to each Fund and of each subadvisory agreement (each, a “Subadvisory Agreement” and collectively, the “Subadvisory Agreements”)(together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Agreements”) among the Trust, VIA and Duff & Phelps Investment Management Co. (“Duff & Phelps”), with respect to Virtus Duff & Phelps Global Infrastructure Fund, Virtus Duff & Phelps Global Real Estate Securities Fund, Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund and Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Estate Securities Fund; and among the Trust, VIA and Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, LLC (“KAR”), with respect to Virtus KAR Developing Markets Fund, Virtus KAR Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund and Virtus KAR International Small-Mid Cap Fund; and among the Trust, VIA (each of Duff & Phelps and KAR, a “Subadviser” and collectively, the “Subadvisers”). At meetings held on November 1, 2023, and November 13-15, 2023 (the “Meetings”), the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (such Act, the “1940 Act” and such Trustees, the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the continuation of each Agreement due for renewal, as further discussed below. In addition, prior to the Meetings, the Independent Trustees met with their independent legal counsel to discuss and consider the information provided by management and submitted questions to management, and they considered the responses provided. It was noted that while the Board approved renewal of the Advisory Agreement with respect to Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund (f/k/a Virtus Vontobel Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund), it had separately approved terminating the subadvisory agreement applicable to that Fund and entering into a new subadvisory agreement with a different subadviser. Disclosure regarding the approval of the subadviser change for that Fund is provided elsewhere in this Report to Shareholders.
In connection with the approval of the Agreements, the Board requested and evaluated information provided by VIA and each Subadviser which, in the Board’s view, constituted information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether the renewal of each of the Agreements would be in the best interests of each applicable Fund and its respective shareholders. The Board also considered information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings with respect to the services provided by VIA and the Subadvisers, including quarterly performance reports prepared by management containing reviews of investment results, compliance reports, and periodic presentations from the Subadvisers with respect to the Funds they manage. The Board noted the affiliation of the Subadvisers with VIA and any potential conflicts of interest.
The Board was separately advised by independent legal counsel throughout the process. For each Agreement, the Board considered all the criteria with respect to the applicable Fund and its shareholders. In its deliberations, the Board considered various factors, including those discussed below, none of which were controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Independent Trustees also discussed the proposed approval of the Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.
In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Board reviewed and analyzed the factors it deemed relevant, including: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by VIA and each of the Subadvisers; (b) the performance of the Funds as compared to an appropriate peer group and an appropriate index; (c) the level and method of computing each Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees, and comparisons of the Funds’ advisory fee rates and total expenses with those of a group of funds with similar investment strategies; (d) the profitability of VIA under the Advisory Agreement; (e) any “fall-out” benefits to VIA, the Subadvisers and their affiliates (i.e., ancillary benefits realized by VIA, the Subadvisers or their affiliates from VIA’s or the Subadviser’s relationship with the Trust); (f) the anticipated effect of growth in size on each Fund’s performance and expenses; (g) fees paid to VIA and the Subadvisers by comparable accounts, as applicable; (h) possible conflicts of interest; and (i) the terms of the Agreements.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Trustees received in advance of the Meetings information provided by VIA and each Subadviser, including completed questionnaires, concerning a number of topics, including, among other items, such company’s investment philosophy, investment process and strategies, resources and personnel, operations, compliance structure and procedures, and overall performance. The Trustees noted that the Funds are managed using a “manager of managers” structure that generally involves the use of one or more subadvisers to manage some or all of a Fund’s portfolio. Under this structure, VIA is responsible for the management of the Funds’ investment programs and for evaluating and selecting subadvisers on an ongoing basis and making any recommendations to the Board regarding hiring, retaining or replacing subadvisers. In considering the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered VIA’s process for supervising and managing the Funds’ subadvisers, including (a) VIA’s ability to select and monitor the subadviser(s); (b) VIA’s ability to

provide the services necessary to monitor the subadvisers’ compliance with the Funds’ respective investment objective(s), policies and restrictions as well as provide other oversight activities; and (c) VIA’s ability and willingness to identify instances in which a subadviser should be replaced and to carry out the required changes. The Trustees also considered: (a) the experience and capability of VIA’s management and other personnel; (b) the financial condition of VIA, and whether it had the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Funds; (c) the quality of VIA’s own regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; (d) the nature, extent and quality of administrative, transfer agency and other services provided by VIA and its affiliates to the Funds; (e) VIA’s supervision of the Funds’ other service providers; and (f) VIA’s risk management processes. It was noted that affiliates of VIA serve as administrator, transfer agent and distributor of the Funds. The Board also took into account its knowledge of VIA’s management and the quality of the performance of VIA’s duties through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year, as well as information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act.
With respect to the services provided by each of the Subadvisers, the Board considered information provided to the Board by each Subadviser, as well as information provided throughout the past year. With respect to the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board noted that each Subadviser provided portfolio management, compliance with the respective Funds’ investment policies and procedures, compliance with applicable securities laws and assurances thereof. The Board also noted that VIA’s and each Subadviser’s management of the respective Funds is subject to the oversight of the Board and must be carried out in accordance with the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions set forth in the Funds’ prospectuses and statement of additional information. In considering the renewal of the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board also considered each Subadviser’s investment management process, including (a) the experience and capability of the Subadviser’s management and other personnel committed by the Subadviser to the respective Fund(s); (b) the financial condition of the Subadviser; (c) the quality of the Subadviser’s regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; and (d) the Subadviser’s trading practices. The Board noted each Subadviser’s regulatory history, including whether it was currently involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate.
After considering all of the information provided to them, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by VIA and each Subadviser were satisfactory and that there was a reasonable basis on which to conclude that each would continue to provide a high quality of investment services to the applicable Funds.
Investment Performance
The Board considered performance reports and discussions at Board meetings throughout the year, as well as a report for the Funds prepared by Broadridge (the “Broadridge Report”), an independent third party provider of investment company data, furnished in connection with the contract renewal process. The Broadridge Report presented each Fund’s performance relative to a peer group of other mutual funds (the “Performance Universe”) and relevant indexes, as selected by Broadridge. The Board also considered performance information presented by management and took into account management’s discussion of the same, including the effect of market conditions on each Fund’s performance. The Board noted that it also reviews on a quarterly basis detailed information about both the Funds’ performance results and portfolio compositions, as well as each Subadviser’s investment strategy(ies). The Board noted VIA’s expertise and resources in monitoring the performance, investment style and risk-adjusted performance of each Subadviser. The Board also noted each Subadviser’s performance record with respect to each applicable Fund. The Board was mindful of VIA’s focus on each Subadviser’s performance and noted VIA’s performance in monitoring and responding to any performance issues with respect to the Funds. The Board also took into account its discussions with management regarding factors that contributed to the performance of each Fund.
The Board considered, among other performance data, the information set forth below with respect to the performance of each Fund for the period ended March 31, 2023. The Board also reviewed comparisons of each Fund’s contractual and net management fee and net
total expense levels to those of its peer universe when considering Fund performance.
Virtus Duff & Phelps Global Infrastructure Fund. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 1-year period. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods.

Virtus Duff & Phelps Global Real Estate Securities Fund. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 1-year period. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods.
Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1- and 10-year periods and outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 3- and 5-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods.
Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Estate Securities Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for the 1-year period and outperformed its benchmark for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods.
Virtus KAR Developing Markets Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the year-to-date and 1-year periods.
Virtus KAR Emerging Markets Small-Cap Fund. The Board noted that the Fund outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1-, 3- and 5-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed its benchmark for the 1- and 5-year periods and underperformed its benchmark for the 3-year period.
Virtus KAR International Small-Mid Cap Fund. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 1- and 3-year periods and outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 5- and 10-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its Performance Universe for the 1-, 3- and 5-year periods and outperformed the median of its Performance Universe for the 10-year period.
Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund (f/k/a Virtus Vontobel Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund). The Board noted that the Fund underperformed both the median of its Performance Universe and its benchmark for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods.
The Board also considered management’s discussion about the reasons for each applicable Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group or benchmark. With respect to the Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund, the Board also considered that the Fund had changed its subadviser in February of 2020, and that therefore, some of the performance considered for that Fund was that of a prior subadviser. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded that each Fund’s overall performance, taking into account reasons discussed for certain Fund’s underperformance and/or actions taken to address the underperformance, was satisfactory.
Management Fees and Total Expenses
The Board considered the fees charged to the Funds for advisory services as well as the total expense levels of the Funds. This information included comparisons of each Fund’s contractual and net management fee and net total expense level to those of its peer universe (the “Expense Universe”) and ranked according to quintile (the first quintile being lowest and, therefore, best in these expense component rankings, and fifth being highest and, therefore, worst in these expense component rankings). In comparing each Fund’s net management fee to that of comparable funds, the Board noted that in the materials presented by management such fee was comprised of advisory and administration fees. The Board also noted that all of the Funds had expense caps in place to limit the total expenses incurred by those Funds and their shareholders, and that VIA had proposed to lower the expense caps in place for Class A, C and I shares of Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund. The Board also noted that the subadvisory fees were paid by VIA out of its advisory fees rather than paid separately by the Funds. In this regard, the Board took into account management’s discussion with respect to the advisory/subadvisory fee structure, including the amount of the advisory fee retained by VIA after payment of a subadvisory fee. The Board also took into account the size of each of the Funds and the impact on expenses and economies of scale. The Subadvisers provided, and the Board considered, fee information of comparable accounts managed by the Subadvisers, as applicable.
In addition to the foregoing, the Board considered, among other data, the information set forth below with respect to each Fund’s fees and expenses. In each case, the Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses, including the type and size of the Fund relative to the other funds in its Expense Universe.

Virtus KAR Developing Markets Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee was in the first quintile of the Expense Universe and net total expenses after waivers were each in the fourth quintile of the Expense Universe.
Virtus KAR Emerging Markets Small-Cap Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee and net total expenses after waivers were each in the fifth quintile of the Expense Universe.

Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund (f/k/a Virtus Vontobel Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund). The Board considered that the Fund’s net management fee and net total expenses after waivers were each in the fifth quintile of the Expense Universe.
The Board concluded that the advisory and subadvisory fees for each Fund, including with any proposed amendments, were fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made for services of the same nature and quality and the other factors considered. The Board also approved the proposed lower expense caps to limit the total expenses of Class A, C and I shares of Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund.
Profitability
The Board also considered certain information relating to profitability that had been provided by VIA. In this regard, the Board considered information regarding the overall profitability, as well as on a fund-by-fund basis, of VIA for its management of the Funds and any other funds of the Trust, as well as its profits and those of its affiliates for managing and providing other services to the Trust, such as distribution, transfer agency and administrative services provided to the Funds by VIA affiliates. In addition to the fees paid to VIA and its affiliates, including the Subadvisers, the Board considered any other benefits derived by VIA or its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. The Board reviewed the methodology used to allocate costs to each Fund, taking into account the fact that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective and various allocation methodologies may each be reasonable while producing different results. The Board concluded that the profitability to VIA and its affiliates from each Fund was reasonable in light of the quality of the services rendered to the Funds by VIA and its affiliates as well as other factors.
In considering the profitability to the Subadvisers in connection with their relationships to the Funds, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreements are paid by VIA out of the fees that VIA receives under the Advisory Agreement, so that Fund shareholders are not directly impacted by those fees. In considering the reasonableness of the fees payable by VIA to the Subadvisers, the Board noted that, because such Subadvisers are affiliates of VIA, such profitability might be directly or indirectly shared by VIA. The Board concluded that the profitability to the Subadvisers from each Fund was reasonable in light of the quality of the services rendered to the Funds by the Subadvisers as well as other factors.
Economies of Scale
The Board received and discussed information concerning whether VIA realizes economies of scale as the Funds’ assets grow. The Board noted that the management fees for all of the Funds with investment advisory fees included breakpoints based on assets under management, and that expense caps were also in place for certain Funds. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Funds’ management fee and subadvisory fee structure for each Fund. The Board also took into account the current sizes of the Funds. The Board also noted that VIA had agreed to implement an extension of each Fund’s expense cap through January 31, 2025, and that VIA had agreed to lower the expense caps applicable to Class A, C and I shares of Virtus SGA Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

CONSIDERATION OF ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS FOR VIRTUS DUFF & PHELPS GLOBAL INFRASTRUCTURE FUND, VIRTUS DUFF & PHELPS GLOBAL REAL ESTATE SECURITIES FUND, VIRTUS DUFF & PHELPS REAL ASSET FUND, VIRTUS DUFF & PHELPS REAL ESTATE SECURITIES FUND, VIRTUS KAR DEVELOPING MARKETS FUND, VIRTUS KAR EMERGING MARKETS SMALL-CAP FUND, VIRTUS KAR INTERNATIONAL SMALL-MID CAP FUND, AND VIRTUS SGA EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND (F/K/A VIRTUS VONTOBEL EMERGING MARKETS OPPORTUNITIES FUND) (each a “FUND” and collectively, the “FUNDS”) BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Board then concluded that no other changes to the advisory fee structure of the Funds with respect to economies of scale were necessary at this time. The Board noted that VIA and the Funds may realize certain economies of scale if the assets of the Funds were to increase, particularly in relationship to certain fixed costs, and that shareholders of the Funds would have an opportunity to benefit from these economies of scale. With respect to whether the Subadvisers realize economies of scale as the Funds’ assets grow, the Board noted that because the subadvisory fee rate paid by VIA to each Subadviser was a percentage of the net advisory fee, both any increase in the advisory fee due to an increase in assets and any decrease in the advisory fee due to the implementation of expense caps would affect the subadvisory fees paid to the Subadvisers. As a result, the Board concluded that the Subadvisers would share in any economies of scale realized by VIA.
Other Factors
The Board considered other benefits that may be realized by VIA and each Subadviser and their affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. Among them, the Board recognized that VP Distributors, LLC, an affiliate of VIA and the Subadvisers, serves as the distributor for the Trust, and, as such, receives payments pursuant to Rule 12b-1 from the Funds to compensate it for providing selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Trust’s assets and corresponding benefits from such growth, including economies of scale. The Board noted that an affiliate of VIA also provides administrative and transfer agency services to the Trust. The Board noted management’s discussion of the fact that, while the Subadvisers are affiliates of VIA, there are no other direct benefits to the Subadvisers or VIA in providing investment advisory services to the Funds, other than the fees to be earned under the applicable Agreements. There may be certain indirect benefits gained, including to the extent that serving the Funds could provide the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional portfolios of the Trust or certain reputational benefits.
Conclusion
Based on all of the foregoing considerations, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that approval of each Agreement, as amended, was in the best interests of each applicable Fund and its respective shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Agreements, as amended, with respect to each Fund.
