Dear Shareholder,

2018 will go down as one of the most challenging years in the post-crisis period with fewer asset classes beating inflation than in 2008. Fears of a global and domestic growth slowdown, U.S. recession worries, and trade wars all weighed on risk assets. Most importantly, the U.S. Federal Reserve System’s (the “Fed”) tightening campaign, coupled with the reduction in its bond portfolio (“Quantitative Tightening”) increased volatility and sent most global asset classes lower on the year, including risk-free alternatives that historically offset any weakness in risk portfolios. Interestingly, the current economic expansion is still robust, driven by historically accommodative monetary policy, generationally low unemployment rates, and tax cuts.

Despite recent headlines regarding an impending recession, we are cautiously optimistic about the economic outlook for 2019 and expect this expansion will continue, becoming the longest since the American Civil War. While it is impossible to predict the exact timing of the end of the expansion, we expect that it will last well beyond 2019 and into 2020. Growth will likely slow into 2019 and 2020 as the impact of tax cuts and fiscal stimulus begins to fade, but we do not foresee a recession in the near term. We do not expect last year’s pace of robust economic growth to continue, but a solid 2%-3% growth rate is reasonable given the current data.

Market participants are closely watching the shape of the yield curve because it has historically been an excellent indication of potential volatility in the marketplace and a recession. In the past, the Fed has tended to tighten too far too fast sending the U.S. economy into recession. We do ultimately believe the Fed’s Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) will eventually tighten the U.S. into recession, but this expansion will last far longer than market participants expect. Recent rhetoric points to the FOMC dramatically slowing their pace of tightening.

As Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said at the Atlanta Fed’s economic conference on January 4, 2019, the FOMC will continue to reduce the size of their balance sheet in the form of Quantitative Tightening but will be more data-dependent with respect to increases in the target rate. Most enlightening from the Atlanta Fed’s economic conference on January 4, 2019, he reiterated, “[The Fed] will be prepared to adjust policy quickly and flexibly, and to use all of our tools to support the economy, should that be appropriate to keep the expansion on track, to keep the labor market strong and to keep inflation near 2%.” The bottom line is the FOMC is not looking to overtighten in 2019, but to support robust growth over the medium term. We think a pause in 2019 is warranted, and a re-steepening of the U.S. yield curve is quite possible as the growth picture stabilizes.

In early 2018, we improved the credit quality across our fund complex. This higher-quality positioning dampened net asset value (“NAV”) volatility during the recent market turmoil enabling us to rotate into more attractive assets. Significant opportunities have begun to emerge in various areas of the U.S. structured credit landscape in 2019, and we see the best risk-adjusted returns in legacy and new issue non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), U.S. financials, shorter duration commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), and asset-backed securities (“ABS”).

Thank you for your continued support.

Respectfully yours,

Sreeniwas V. Prabhu

How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the 12-month period ended January 31, 2019, the Fund’s Institutional Shares (ANGIX) returned 3.05%, while the Fund’s A Shares (ANGLX) and C Shares (ANGCX) returned 2.72% and 2.04%, respectively. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, returned 2.25%.

 

2.

What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?

Duration and credit strategies benefited the Fund relative to the benchmark. Duration positioning short of the index was a positive contributor to relative performance as interest rates rose for most of the term structure for the 12-month period ended January 31, 2019. The 2-year Treasury yield finished up 32 basis points to 2.46% while the 10-year Treasury yield fell 8 basis points to 2.63%, flattening the 2-year/10-year Treasury spread curve (“2s/10s Curve”) 45 basis points from 62 to 17 basis points. LIBOR rates continued to move higher given the four interest rate hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”). 1-month and 3-month LIBOR rose 101 and 93 basis points, respectively. The floating rate bond allocation based primarily on front-end LIBOR floaters was beneficial to Fund performance relative to the Fund’s benchmark. The flattening of the U.S. yield curve continued to be a focus for market participants during the period as the 2s/10s Curve neared inversion, and market volatility increased sharply in the fourth quarter of 2018.

All three primary sectors of the Fund were positive contributors to performance for the 12-month period ended January 31, 2019 with non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“NA RMBS”) up approximately 4.41%, contributing 2.79% to the Fund. The NA RMBS sector had another strong year in 2018 after several years of post-crisis outperformance. The fundamental tailwinds of the broad-based housing recovery have resulted in solid improvement in home equity in the U.S. The combined effect of increased home equity and ongoing amortization has resulted in loan-to-value ratios (“LTVs”) falling below 60% on average for the legacy NA RMBS allocation in the Fund. This has resulted in rising Sharpe ratios for NA RMBS as it continues to exhibit high current carry and lower spread volatility amid spread widening events such as late 2018. Across all of fixed income, 2018 was a year defined by supply and NA RMBS was no different. It was the busiest supply year in the post-crisis period, with over $115 billion of new issuance coming to market. In fact, it was the first year since the crisis where the NA RMBS market actually grew in the total amount of bonds outstanding. Heavy supply weighed on spreads across fixed income and prices moved slightly lower on the year within the space. However, that was more than offset by a positive income return from high-quality, floating rate securities. We sought to be at the senior part of the capital structure in Alt-A and Option ARM sub-sectors as LIBOR moved sharply higher in 2018. Increased prepayment rates provided another tailwind for the asset class, resulting in positive total return and positive excess return for the year.

The commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) allocation was a positive contributor to Fund performance as well. CMBS was up 3.68%, contributing 39 basis points to Fund performance. After a strong start early in the period, CMBS gave back their gains later in the period in sympathy with the widening in the broader credit markets. 2018 new-issue volumes finished at $93.11 billion, in-line with 2017 volume of $94.3 billion, a very healthy technical for us to observe. In summary, CMBS investors digested over $90 billion of new bonds, and the risk retention structures of these bond transactions continues to be well received as spreads in September reached their tightest levels in a 10-year span.

Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) were also a positive contributor to the Fund for the period due to the defensive positioning with an overweight to AAA-rated tranches. The CLO allocation was up 3.20% in total return, contributing 38 basis points to Fund performance. CLO spreads began widening from post-crisis tights set earlier in 2018, amidst high supply. General corporate credit spread widening contributed to this phenomenon. Rising risk premiums were orderly until late October, at which point spreads started to widen rapidly into year-end. Macro weakness, poor year-end liquidity and forced selling from fixed income funds facing redemptions exacerbated the latest move. In anticipation of a more volatile market due to a more aggressive Fed and continued froth in the bank loan market, we began shifting our credit exposure in CLOs up the capital stack from BBB/BB to AAA/AA over the last 12 to 18 months. The CLO market has a high ‘beta’ with spread moves that exceed moves in investment grade and high yield corporate bond spreads, which provides significant sector rotation opportunities. The recent widening in the fourth quarter was no different. Moving high in the capital stack softens price volatility and helped the allocation outperform versus the broader CLO market.

the expansion, expectations are it will last well beyond 2019 and into 2020. Growth will likely slow into 2019 and 2020 as the impact of tax cuts and fiscal stimulus begin to fade, but we don’t foresee a recession in the near term. We do not expect last year’s pace of robust economic growth to continue, but a solid 2-3% is reasonable given the current data.

The labor market is very healthy at the moment. The unemployment rate is at 3.9% and wages are rising at approximately 3.1% per annum. Payrolls have added an average of 220,000 jobs over the last four months, well ahead of the 100,000 per month required to continue the downtrend in the unemployment rate, which could remain below 4% throughout 2019.

In early 2018, we improved the credit quality across our fund complex. Significant opportunities have begun to emerge in various areas of the U.S. structured credit landscape in 2019, and we see the best risk-adjusted returns in legacy and new issue NA RMBS, U.S. financials, and shorter duration CMBS, CLOs and asset-backed securities (“ABS”).

Mutual fund investing involves risk; Principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower rated and non-rated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher rated securities. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. Derivatives involve risks different from, and in certain cases, greater than the risks presented by more traditional investments. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as illiquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investments in derivatives could lose more than the amount invested. Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. The Fund can make short sales of securities, which involves the risk that losses in securities may exceed the original amount invested.

2s/10s Curve: Refers to the divergence between the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond and the 2-year Treasury note. In normal economic circumstances, the yield on the 10-year should be greater than the 2-year, creating a positive spread. This signals some combination of positive future growth expectations, positive future inflation expectations, and basic recognition that more adverse economic events are likelier to transpire over a longer timeframe than a shorter timeframe. Thus investors are compensated for taking on the higher risk of longer-duration bonds in the form of higher yields.

How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the 12-month period ended January 31, 2019, the Fund’s Institutional Shares (ANFIX) returned 3.61%, while the Fund’s A Shares (ANFLX) and C Shares (AFLCX) returned 3.36% and 2.69%, respectively. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, returned 2.25%.

 

2.

What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?

There were some significant headwinds that created some challenges for investors in the banking sector in 2018. Interest rates rose, equity valuations collapsed in the second half of the year and credit spreads widened significantly in the fourth quarter. On the other hand, the sector delivered record earnings: higher interest rates resulted in improved net interest margins, credit quality is back to pre-crisis levels and lower tax rates helped boost the bottom line. Despite the headwinds, the Fund performed very well and ended the year as the top performing fund based upon total return among the 250 funds in Morningstar’s corporate bond category for the one year period ended December 31, 2018.

The focus of the Fund shifted more explicitly toward the financial sector in 2018. To emphasize the shift, the name of the fund was changed from Angel Oak Flexible Income Fund to Angel Oak Financials Income Fund effective December 16, 2018. The financial sector now accounts for over 90% of the Fund’s assets. There are three areas of primary focus within the financial sector: community bank debt, non-bank financials debt and community bank equity. The Fund’s asset allocation is comprised of 71% of assets in community bank debt, 18% of assets in non-bank financials, and 3% of assets in community bank equities.

Given the attractiveness of community bank debt, the allocation to Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) fell below 3% in 2018, the lowest level since the Fund’s inception. CLOs only contributed marginally to the Fund’s performance in 2018.

 

3.

What is your outlook heading into 2019, and how is the Fund positioned?

The Fund is focused on three main asset classes in the current environment: community bank debt, non-bank financials debt and community bank equities. Community bank debt offers the highest risk/reward potential over the next 18-24 months, in our view.

Our conviction in community bank debt as an asset class is based on the underlying strength of the sector, including higher capital bases, strengthened regulatory oversight and earnings tailwinds. The niche market characteristics and ensuing market dislocation allows investors to extract excess yield. Community bank debt offers credit spreads of 250-400 basis points above those of larger institutions with a similar credit profile. Relative to larger banks, community banks have (1) more transparent business models; (2) a low-cost, “sticky” deposit base; (3) lending portfolios tied to local relationships; and (4) balance sheet structures that benefit from higher rates. Additionally, we believe that more-nimble community banks can drive more innovation and higher growth than larger institutions. Community bank debt offers spreads of approximately 350 basis points on average, compared with approximately 150 basis points for investment grade corporate bonds. Finally, increasing consolidation in the banking industry provides the potential for enhanced total return from price appreciation.

Small-cap non-bank financial institution debt (including insurance companies, Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”), Business Development Companies (“BDCs”) and asset managers) is a similarly dislocated market, in our view. With little analyst coverage or institutional following, investors can extract relatively high coupons. This space is more nascent than the community bank debt market, and has really only emerged in size over the past year or so. As such, coupons may be higher than they are for community bank debt, but issuance is smaller and more episodic. We believe the best risk/reward potential in the non-banks sector over the near to medium term is in shorter duration, rated senior debt.

For 2019, we feel there will be a bifurcation between bank debt and equity performance. While bank equities are underpinned by the same strong industry fundamentals, asset quality is key to bank debt performance whereas equity valuations are based on investors’ perceptions of future earnings growth and the multiple they are willing to pay for that growth. From an asset quality perspective, sector trends remain pristine. By contrast, we see fewer catalysts to drive meaningful equities outperformance from a sector perspective in 2019 as we believe earnings growth has peaked. We do however see stock specific opportunities in community bank equities, which is reflected in our equities allocation, where we have a value bias.

With the increased volatility and downward pressure seen across fixed income and equity markets in the fourth quarter of 2018, we are closely monitoring asset quality trends, including real-time data points amassed through our due diligence process in a particularly robust primary issue market. We remain disciplined in our credit underwriting, with particular emphasis on interest

rate risk given increased lending and deposit competition, and on credit risk, as we move into the later innings of the economic cycle. We expect the next credit cycle will be driven by the corporate sector, as higher rates and growing leverage will eventually drive higher defaults and restructurings. On the other hand, the U.S. consumer remains strong, underwriting has become more conservative and banks are in a strong position to absorb loss rates moving towards cycle averages over time.

We do not anticipate our sub-sector allocations within financial services will change materially in 2019.

How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the 12-month period ended January 31, 2019, the Fund’s Institutional Shares (ANHIX) returned 0.74% while the Fund’s A Shares (ANHAX) returned 0.41%. During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, returned 1.73%.

 

2.

What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?

The portfolio’s 10% allocation to collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) was a significant positive contributor to performance during the period. CLOs are floating rate instruments and benefited as interest rates rose during the year. The Fund’s CLO allocation is generally comprised of CLOs with short duration and defensive profiles, which outperformed the corporate bond allocation and the benchmark.

For the second consecutive year, the energy sector was the largest positive contributor to corporate bond performance during the period. Oil prices declined due to rising production from U.S. shale producers and the ramp up of production from OPEC to offset the expected reduction in supply from Iran as sanctions were imposed and compounded by softening demand growth as the pace of global economic growth slowed. The positive contribution was primarily the result of selection and was broad based. Additionally, the portfolio benefited from the underweight to exploration and production companies in favor of refining and pipeline companies which are less directly exposed to the price level of oil within the energy sector allocation.

The largest detractors from the corporate bond performance came from the communications and consumer non-cyclical sectors. The performance was driven by a combination of allocation and selection. The portfolio was underweight both sectors which outperformed the benchmark during the period. In addition, performance was further negatively impacted by specific holdings in a printing company and a food and beverage company, both of which underperformed due to competitive pressures and deteriorating operating performance.

 

3.

What is your outlook heading into 2019, and how is the Fund positioned?

Despite the market sell-off in late 2018, triggered by the U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman’s comments regarding interest rates being far below neutral and that the run-off of the balance sheet was on auto-pilot, interpreted by the market that the Federal Reserve would programmatically continue to tighten monetary policy, pulling forward the timeline of a recession, the U.S. economic fundamentals appear to be in good shape and supportive of continued economic expansion, especially since the Federal Reserve has since communicated its willingness to be patient and flexible with regard to monetary policy.

The U.S. economy continues to be a consumer-driven economy with the consumer accounting for approximately 70% of economic activity. Unemployment is at the lowest level going back to the 1960s; wage gains are beginning to accelerate; and household leverage is at the lowest levels since the early 2000s, as measured by the percentage of disposable income allocated to debt service and total debt to disposable income.

Corporate earnings growth will slow in 2019 as the benefit of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act fades. However, earnings growth is expected to be positive. As interest rates rise and the pace of economic growth slows, corporations are increasingly focusing on the balance sheet, deemphasizing levered share buybacks and dividends in favor of debt reduction to drive stronger enterprise valuation multiples. For high yield issuers in aggregate, credit profiles have steadily improved with J.P. Morgan’s credit fundamentals update for the third quarter of 2018 indicating leverage has steadily improved for nine consecutive quarters.

Within this context we believe the portfolio is positioned to benefit from the continued economic expansion while also reflecting current valuations and the potential for increased volatility. We are overweight the basic industries, consumer cyclicals and capital goods sectors reflecting our expectation for a continuation of the economic expansion and favorable view on the U.S. housing sector supported by increasing household formation by the millennial generation and favorable supply/demand fundamentals. Given the magnitude of monetary policy tightening to date, and the flatness of the yield curve indicating the economy’s increased sensitivity to the level of interest rates on economic growth, we remain cognizant of taking advantage of opportunities to reduce positions where the risk/reward balance is no longer attractive.

How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the period since inception (April 2, 2018) through January 31, 2019, the Fund’s Institutional Shares (AOUIX) returned 2.60%, while the Fund’s A Shares (AOUAX) returned 2.12% (April 30, 2018 inception for the A shares). During the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays 9-12 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index, returned 1.84% since April 3, 2018 and 1.77% since April 30, 2018.

 

2.

What were the main contributors to and detractors from the Fund’s performance during the period?

Credit strategies were the primary benefit to the Fund relative to the benchmark. Duration positioning short of the index was a mixed contributor since inception. 1-yr reference rates rose through the first seven months of the period and then fell thereafter. Overall, the interest rate duration was short of the Fund’s benchmark for the whole period but was positioned even shorter during the falling interest rate period. The 1-year Treasury yield finished up 47 basis points to 2.55%, peaking at 2.74% in November 2018 before falling 19 basis points to end the period. LIBOR rates continued to move higher given the four hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”). 1-month and 3-month LIBOR rose 64 and 43 basis points, respectively. The floating rate bond allocation based primarily on front-end LIBOR floaters was beneficial to Fund performance relative to the Fund’s benchmark as 1-month LIBOR rates rose rapidly throughout most of the period. On average throughout the return period, interest rate duration strategies were a positive contributor to Fund performance given the move higher in short term rates.

Credit strategies were the primary drivers of performance as the Fund’s overweight to credit, particularly structured credit, over government bonds drove positive relative performance. Residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), asset-backed securities (“ABS”), and collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), the largest asset classes within the Fund, were all positive contributors to Fund performance. RMBS produced a positive total return of 3.00%, contributing 63 basis points to Fund performance. The RMBS allocation is a targeted mix of primarily new issue sectors. Portfolio managers continue to believe the inherent bias within new issue mortgage credit and the dislocation with respect to new issue sectors remains significant. The RMBS allocation was primarily positioned within a targeted mix of non-qualified mortgages (“non-QM”), non-performing loans (“NPL”), and re-performing loans (“RPL”), along with legacy and prime 2.0. The higher current weighted average coupon of the underlying non-QM collateral is a primary factor for the attractive convexity characteristics of the sector. The sharp rise in Treasury yields in 2018 had an almost insignificant impact on prepayment speeds for non-QM collateral. Additionally, spreads on NPL and non-QM moved wider in 2018, creating the opportunity to rotate from ABS into RMBS in the fourth quarter of 2018, limiting price volatility and leading to significant total return opportunities for early 2019. The RMBS allocation remained between 20-40% of Fund assets throughout most of the period.

The ABS allocation was a positive contributor to Fund performance as well. ABS was up 2.83%, contributing 150 basis points to Fund performance. The focus of the ABS allocation was within short duration, high credit quality assets. The primary overweight within the ABS allocation was to auto ABS. The de-levering structures were a significant driver to price stability as credit protection increases each month and principal is paid off. This defensive positioning for approximately 50% of the Fund was a key driver to net asset value (“NAV”) stability in the fourth quarter of 2018 as credit spreads widened across broader U.S. credit. While the majority of the ABS allocation was in fixed-rate tranches, price returns were still net positive, up 0.40% as spreads were marginally tighter overall. The de-levering structures were a catalyst to tighter spreads over time as individual bonds seasoned. Sector selection was a positive contributor as subprime auto tightened relative to prime auto and credit card ABS.

CLOs were also a positive contributor to the Fund for the period due to the defensive positioning with a focus in AAA-rated tranches. The CLO allocation was up 2.21% in total return, contributing 22 basis points to Fund performance. The CLO allocation was a targeted allocation based on the current availability of X tranches. Portfolio managers focused on short maturity (1-2yr weighted average life) X tranches with high credit enhancement and limited optionality. The floating rate nature of the asset class helped to create positive total returns. During the period, spreads on X tranches widened by approximately 10-20 basis points, leading a price return of -0.24%. However, the floating rate nature helped limit price volatility and the positive income return of 2.45% offset marginally wider spreads for the short duration asset class. The CLO allocation was a function of the ability to source this attractive area of the U.S. credit markets but is not expected to be a consistent allocation over time.

The commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) allocation was a contributor to Fund performance, creating a positive total return of 1.87% and contributing 28 basis points to Fund performance. The focus of the allocation was within floating rate agency CMBS and served the purpose of liquidity and price stability.

What is your outlook heading into 2019, and how is the Fund positioned?

The Fund continues to focus across a diversified mix of primarily structured credit. Recently, the allocation to new issue RMBS has increased as the Fund has decreased the exposure to ABS and CMBS. New issue sectors of RMBS were the most sensitive to spread changes in the fourth quarter of 2018, creating more opportunities in non-QM and NPL. The Fund decreased the exposure to agency CMBS. The ABS allocation looked to increased diversification across U.S. sectors while decreasing the absolute allocation within the Fund.

2019 is expected to see increased volatility with similar new issue supply across structured credit. This backdrop should provide opportunities for relative outperformance and sector rotation within the various areas of U.S. credit. The increased short term yield environment and flattening U.S. yield curve have made short duration credit inherently attractive with continued limited volatility given the short maturity nature of the market. This should lead to investor inflows across short term mutual funds. In early 2018, we improved the credit quality across our fund complex. Significant opportunities have begun to emerge in various areas of the U.S. structured credit landscape in 2019, and we see the best risk-adjusted returns in new issue non-agency RMBS, short-duration CMBS, CLO X tranches; and seasoned floating-rate non-agency CMBS.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Mutual fund investing involves risk; Principal loss is possible. Investments in debt securities typically decrease when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in lower rated and non-rated securities present a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher rated securities. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. Derivatives involve risks different from, and in certain cases, greater than the risks presented by more traditional investments. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as illiquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investments in derivatives could lose more than the amount invested. Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. The Fund can make short sales of securities, which involves the risk that losses in securities may exceed the original amount invested. For more information on these risks and other risks of the Fund, please see the Prospectus.

Summary of Funds’ Expenses – (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other expenses of the Funds. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Actual Expenses

The first lines of the tables below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these lines, 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 = $8.60), then multiply the result by the numbers in the first lines under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second lines of the tables below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second lines of the tables below are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactoinal costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income Fund

Consolidated Schedule of Open Reverse Repurchase Agreements – (continued)

January 31, 2019

 

A reverse repurchase agreement, although structured as a sale and repurchase obligation, acts as a financing transaction under which the Fund will effectively pledge certain assets as collateral to secure a short-term loan. Generally, the other party to the agreement makes the loan in an amount less than the fair value of the pledged collateral. At the maturity of the reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund will be required to repay the loan and interest and correspondingly receive back its collateral. While used as collateral, the pledged assets continue to pay principal and interest which are for the benefit of the Fund.

Notes to the Financial Statements

January 31, 2019

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

Angel Oak Funds Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust organized on June 20, 2014 and registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an open-end management investment company, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust consists of four series, Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income Fund (the “Multi-Strategy Income Fund”), Angel Oak Financials Income Fund (formerly Angel Oak Flexible Income Fund) (the “Financials Income Fund”), Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund (the “High Yield Opportunities Fund”), and Angel Oak UltraShort Income Fund (the “UltraShort Income Fund”) (the “Funds”). The Funds (except the UltraShort Income Fund) offer four classes of shares to investors, Class A shares, Class C shares, Institutional Class shares, and Class T shares. The UltraShort Income Fund offers three classes of shares to investors; Class A, Class C, and Institutional Class. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s Class A shares commenced operations on June 28, 2011, Class C shares commenced operations on August 4, 2015, Institutional Class shares commenced operations on August 16, 2012, and Class T shares have not commenced operations as of January 31, 2019. Financials Income Fund’s Class A and Institutional Class shares commenced operations on November 3, 2014, Class C shares commenced on August 4, 2015, and Class T shares have not commenced operations as of January 31, 2019. High Yield Opportunities Fund Class A shares commenced operations on July 31, 2012, Institutional Class shares commenced operations on March 31, 2009, and Class C and Class T shares have not commenced operations as of January 31, 2019. UltraShort Income Fund’s Class A shares commenced operations on April 30, 2018, Institutional Class Shares commenced operations on April 2, 2018, and Class C shares have not commenced operations as of January 31, 2019. Class A shares charge a 2.25% front-end sales charge and a 0.25% 12b-1 fee. Effective May 31, 2018, the UltraShort Income Fund no longer charges a front-end sales charge on Class A Shares. Class T shares charge a 2.50% front-end sales charge and a 0.25% 12b-1 fee. Class C shares charge a 1.00% deferred sales charge on shares redeemed within one year of purchase and a 1.00% 12b-1 fee. Institutional Class shares do not charge front-end or back-end sales charges and are not subject to a 12b-1 fee.

The investment objective of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund is current income. The investment objective of the Financials Income Fund is to seek current income with a secondary objective of total return. The investment objective of High Yield Opportunities Fund is to earn a high level of current income with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The investment objective of the UltraShort Income Fund is to provide current income while seeking to minimize price volatility and maintain liquidity. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund, Financials Income Fund, and High Yield Opportunities Fund are diversified series of the Trust. The UltraShort Income Fund is a non-diversified series of the Trust, which means that it can invest a higher percentage of its assets in any one issuer. Investing in a non-diversified fund may entail greater risks than is normally associated with more widely diversified funds.

The Multi-Strategy Income Fund is the successor in interest to a fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) having the same name and investment objective that was included as a series of another investment company, Valued Advisers Trust, and that was also advised by the Multi- Strategy Income Fund’s investment adviser, Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”). On March 26, 2015, the shareholders of the Predecessor Fund approved the reorganization of the Predecessor Fund with and into the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, and effective as of the close of business on April 10, 2015, the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Fund were transferred to the Trust in exchange for shares of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund. Costs incurred by the Multi-Strategy Income Fund in connection with the reorganization were paid by the Adviser. The Predecessor Fund ceased offering its C Class shares and converted them into Class A shares effective as of the close of business April 2, 2015.

The High Yield Opportunities Fund is the successor in interest to the Rainier High Yield Fund (the “Predecessor High Yield Fund”), which had the same investment objective and was included as a series of another investment company, Rainier Investment Management Mutual Funds (“Predecessor Trust”), and that was advised by Rainier Investment Management, LLC. On April 15, 2016, the shareholders of the Predecessor High Yield Fund approved the reorganization of the Original Shares and Institutional Shares of the Predecessor High Yield Fund with and into the Class A shares and Institutional Class shares of the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund, and effective as of the close of business on April 15, 2016, the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor High Yield Fund were transferred to the Trust in exchange for shares in the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund. Costs incurred by the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund in connection with the reorganization were paid by the Adviser. The fiscal year end of the Predecessor High Yield Fund was March 31, 2016. The reporting period ended January 31, 2017 for the High Yield Opportunities Fund was April 1, 2016 through January 31, 2017. Operations prior to April 15, 2016 were for the Predecessor High Yield Fund. Net assets and shares outstanding on April 15, 2016 were $705,808 and 64,250 for Original Shares and $37,954,151 and 3,463,606 for Institutional Shares, respectively, all of which were transferred into the Trust at NAV at the close of business on April 15, 2016.

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION – (continued)

 

Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries – As part of its investment strategies, Multi-Strategy Income Fund invests directly or, to comply with certain regulations, through wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries formed by the Fund, Hyperion Loan Funding Trust (“Hyperion”) and Titan Loan Funding Trust (“Titan”), each a statutory trust organized under the laws of the state of Delaware, each incorporated on August 2, 2018. Hyperion and Titan act as investment vehicles in order to purchase residential and commercial real estate whole loans, participations in such loans, or instruments representing the right to receive interest payments and principal due on such loans. The allocation of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s investments, if any, in Hyperion or Titan will vary over time and might not include all of the types of investments described above.

At January 31, 2019, investments in Hyperion and Titan represented 1.26% and 0.24% of the total net assets of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, respectively.

The consolidated financial statements of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund includes the investment activity and financial statements of Hyperion and Titan. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Because the Multi-Strategy Income Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in its respective subsidiaries, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund may be considered to be investing indirectly in some of those investments through its subsidiary. For that reason, references to the Multi-Strategy Income Fund may also encompass it subsidiaries.

At January 31, 2019, investments held by Hyperion and Titan include whole loans, valued at $91,766,337 and $17,178,496, respectively. In addition, Hyperion and Titan held $5,000 and $3,212 in cash, respectively.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services-Investment Companies”.

Securities Valuation and Fair Value Measurements – The Funds have adopted authoritative fair valuation accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion in changes in valuation techniques and related inputs, if any, during the period. In addition, these standards require expanded disclosure for each major category of assets. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

   

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

   

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining fair value of investments based on the best information available)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.

Investments in registered open-end management investment companies, including money market funds, will be valued based upon the net asset value (“NAV”) of such investments and are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair values for long-term debt securities, including asset-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, collateralized mortgage obligations, corporate obligations, whole loans, and mortgage-backed securities are normally determined on the basis of valuations provided by independent pricing services. Vendors typically value such securities based on one or more inputs, including but not limited to, benchmark yields, transactions, bids, offers, quotations from dealers and trading systems, new issues, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities; and pricing models such as yield measurers calculated using factors such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data. In addition to these inputs, mortgage-backed and asset-backed obligations may utilize cash flows, prepayment information, default rates, delinquency and loss assumptions, collateral characteristics, credit enhancements and specific deal information. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)

 

inputs are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent the significant inputs are unobservable; the values generally would be categorized as Level 3.

Equity securities, including preferred stocks, that are traded on a national securities exchange, except those listed on the Nasdaq Global Market®, Nasdaq Global Select Market® and the Nasdaq Capital Market® exchanges (collectively, “Nasdaq”), are valued at the last sale price at the close of that exchange. Securities traded on Nasdaq will be valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If, on a particular day, an exchange-listed or Nasdaq security does not trade, then: (i) the security shall be valued at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices at the close of the exchange; or (ii) the security shall be valued at the latest sales price on the Composite Market (defined below) for the day such security is being valued. “Composite Market” means a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets (“OTC”) as published by a pricing service. In the event market quotations or Composite Market pricing are not readily available, Fair Value will be determined in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees (“Board”). All equity securities that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last sale price at the close of the over-the counter market. If a non-exchange listed security does not trade on a particular day, then the mean between the last quoted bid and asked price will be used as long as it continues to reflect the value of the security. If the mean is not available, then bid price can be used as long as the bid price continues to reflect the value of the security. Otherwise Fair Value will be determined in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board. These securities will generally be categorized as Level 3 securities. When using the market quotations or close prices provided by the pricing service and when the market is considered active, the security will be classified as a Level 1 security. Sometimes, an equity security owned by the funds will be valued by the pricing service with factors other than market quotations or when the market is considered inactive. When this happens, the security will be classified as a Level 2 security.

Short term debt securities having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, provided such amount approximates fair market value. These investments are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Reverse repurchase agreements and repurchase agreements are priced at their acquisition cost, and assessed for credit adjustments, which represents fair value. These securities will generally be categorized as Level 2 securities.

Financial derivative instruments, such as futures contracts, that are traded on a national securities or commodities exchange are typically valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Swaps, such as credit default swaps, interest-rate swaps and currency swaps, are valued by a Pricing Service. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter financial derivative instruments, such as certain futures contracts or swap agreements, derive their values from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates, other inputs or a combination of these factors. These instruments are normally valued on the basis of evaluations provided by independent pricing services or broker dealer quotations. Derivatives that use similar valuation techniques as described above are typically categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Securities may be fair valued in accordance with the fair valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Valuation and Risk Oversight Committee is generally responsible for overseeing the Funds’ valuation processes and reports quarterly to the Board. The Valuation and Risk Management Oversight Committee has delegated to the Valuation Committee of Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”) the day to day responsibilities for making all necessary determinations of the fair value of portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or if the prices obtained from brokers and dealers or independent pricing services are deemed to be unreliable indicators of market or fair value. Representatives of the Adviser’s Valuation Committee reports quarterly to the Valuation and Risk Management Oversight Committee.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)

 

Federal Income Taxes – The Funds intend to elect and continue to qualify to be taxed as “regulated investment companies” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Funds generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent they distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders. The Funds generally intend to operate in a manner such that they will not be liable for federal income or excise taxes.

The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. During the year or period ended January 31, 2019, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds have reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded that no provision for income tax would be required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ Federal and state income and Federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

Security Transactions and Income Recognition – Investment security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Interest income and expense is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted or amortized using the effective yield method, based on each securities estimated life and recoverable principal and recorded in interest income on the Statements of Operations. Dividend income and corporate transactions, if any, are recorded on the ex-date. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income on the Statements of Operations. Payments received from certain investments held by the Funds may be comprised of dividends, capital gains and return of capital. The Funds originally estimate the expected classification of such payments. The amounts may subsequently be reclassified upon receipt of the information from the issuer. The actual character of distributions to the Funds’ shareholders will be reflected in the Form 1099 received by shareholders after the end of the calendar year.

Expenses – Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not relate to a specific fund of the Trust are allocated to the individual Funds based on each Fund’s relative net assets or another appropriate basis. Expenses attributable to any class are borne by that class. Income, realized gains and losses, unrealized appreciation and depreciation and expenses are allocated to each class based on the net assets in relation to the relative net assets of each Fund.

Distributions to Shareholders – Distributions from each Fund’s net investment income are accrued daily and typically paid monthly. The Funds intend to distribute their net realized long term capital gains and their net realized short term capital gains, if any, at least annually. Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The treatment for financial reporting purposes of distributions made to shareholders during the period from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their ultimate treatment for federal income tax purposes. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, they are reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset values per share of the Funds. For the year or period ended January 31, 2019, certain differences were reclassified. These differences were primarily related to paydown losses; the amounts did not affect net assets. The reclassifications were as follows:

 

      Paid-in capital      Distributable
earnings/(accumulated
deficit)
Multi-Strategy Income Fund    $         –    $         –
Financials Income Fund    $(62,033)    $62,033
High Yield Opportunities Fund    $         –    $         –
UltraShort Income Fund    $         –    $         –

Share Valuation – The NAV per share of a class of shares of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets, attributable to that class, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) attributable to that class by the total number of shares of that class outstanding, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ NAV will not be calculated on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Indemnifications – Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trust will indemnify its officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representatives and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred.

Repurchase Agreements – Repurchase agreements are transactions by which the Funds purchase a security and simultaneously commit to resell that security to the seller (a bank or securities dealer) at an agreed upon price on an agreed upon date. The resale price reflects the purchase price plus an agreed upon market rate of interest which is unrelated to the coupon rate or the date of maturity of the purchased security. A repurchase agreement is accounted for as an investment by the Funds, collateralized by securities, which are delivered to the Funds’ custodian or to an agent bank under a tri-party agreement. The securities are marked-to-market daily and additional securities are acquired as needed, to ensure that their value equals or exceeds the repurchase price plus accrued interest. Repurchase agreements involve certain risks not associated with direct investments in the underlying securities. In the event of a default or bankruptcy by the seller, the Funds will seek to liquidate such collateral. The exercise of the Funds’ right to liquidate such collateral could involve certain costs or delays, and, to the extent that proceeds from any sale upon a default of the obligation to repurchase were less than the repurchase price, the Funds could suffer a loss.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements – A reverse repurchase agreement is the sale by the Funds of a security to a party for a specified price, with the simultaneous agreement by the Funds to repurchase that security from that party on a future date at a higher price. Securities sold under reverse repurchase agreements are reflected as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Interest payments made are recorded as a component of interest expense on the Statements of Operations. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the counterparty will become subject to bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings or fail to return a security to the Funds. In such situations, the Funds may incur losses as a result of a possible decline in the value of the underlying security during the period while the Funds’ seek to enforce their rights, a possible lack of access to income on the underlying security during this period, or expenses of enforcing their rights. The Funds will segregate assets determined to be liquid by the Adviser or otherwise cover its obligations under reverse repurchase agreement.

The gross obligations for secured borrowing by the type of collateral pledged and remaining time to maturity is as follows:

Asset-Backed, Mortgage-Backed, and Whole Loan Securities Risks – Prepayment risk is associated with mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, including collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”). If interest rates fall, the underlying debt may be repaid ahead of schedule, reducing the value of the Funds’ investments. If interest rates rise, there may be fewer prepayments, which would cause the average bond maturity to rise, increasing the potential for the Funds to lose money. The value of these securities may be significantly affected by changes in interest rates, the market’s perception of issuers, and the creditworthiness of the parties involved. The ability of the Funds to successfully utilize these instruments may depend on the ability of the Funds’ Adviser to forecast interest rates and other economic factors correctly. These securities may have a structure that makes their reaction to interest rate changes and other factors difficult to predict, making their value highly volatile. Certain mortgage-backed securities may be secured by pools of mortgages on single-family, multi-family properties, as well as commercial properties. Similarly, asset-backed securities may be secured by pools of

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)

 

loans, such as corporate loans, student loans, automobile loans and credit card receivables. Whole loans are sold in entirety rather than being pooled with other mortgages. Whole loans are mortgage loans sold to an investor in a secondary market. The investor purchasing the loan assumes full responsibility of the loan and all the contractual terms and rights associated with the funds. The credit risk on such securities is affected by homeowners or borrowers defaulting on their loans. The values of assets underlying mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, including CLOs, may decline and therefore may not be adequate to cover underlying investors. Mortgage-backed securities and other securities issued by participants in housing and commercial real estate finance, as well as other real estate-related markets have experienced extraordinary weakness and volatility in recent years. Possible legislation in the area of residential mortgages, credit cards, corporate loans and other loans that may collateralize the securities in which the Funds may invest could negatively impact the value of the Funds’ investments. To the extent the Funds focus their investments in particular types of mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities, including whole loans and CLOs, the Funds may be more susceptible to risk factors affecting such types of securities.

Subordinated Debt of Banks and Diversified Financial Companies – The Funds may invest in subordinated debt securities, sometimes also called “junior debt,” are debt securities for which the issuer’s obligations to make principal and interest payment are secondary to the issuer’s payment obligations to more senior debt securities. Such investments will consist primarily of debt issued by community banks or savings intuitions (or their holding companies), which are subordinated to senior debt issued by the banks and depots held by the bank, but are senior to trust preferred obligations, preferred stock and common stock issued by the bank.

Investment Company Securities – The Funds may invest in the securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, closed-end funds and open-end (mutual) funds (also called underlying funds). When a Fund invests in underlying funds it will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses payable directly by the underlying fund. In connection with its investments in other investment companies, a Fund will incur higher expenses, many of which may be duplicative. Furthermore, because the Funds invest in shares of ETFs and underlying funds their performances are directly related to the ability of the ETFs and underlying funds to meet their respective investment objectives, as well as the allocation of each Fund’s assets among the ETFs and underlying funds by the Adviser. Accordingly, the Funds’ investment performance will be influenced by the investment strategies of and risks associated with the ETFs and underlying funds in direct proportion to the amount of assets the Funds allocate to the ETFs and underlying funds utilizing such strategies.

Common and Preferred Stock  The Funds may invest in common stock. Common stock represents an equity (ownership) interest in a company, and usually possesses voting rights and earns dividends. Dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of the issuer. Common stock generally represents the riskiest investment in a company. In addition, common stock generally has the greatest appreciation and depreciation potential because increases and decreases in earnings are usually reflected in a company’s stock price. The Funds may also invest in preferred stock. Preferred stock is a class of stock having a preference over common stock as to the payment of dividends and the recovery of investment should a company be liquidated, although preferred stock is usually junior to the debt securities of the issuer. Preferred stock typically does not possess voting rights and its market value may change based on changes in interest rates.

The fundamental risk of investing in common and preferred stock is the risk that the value of the stock might decrease. Stock values fluctuate in response to the activities of an individual company or in response to general market and/or economic conditions. Historically, common stocks have provided greater long-term returns and have entailed greater short-term risks than preferred stocks, fixed-income and money market investments. The market value of all securities, including common and preferred stocks, is based upon the market’s perception of value and not necessarily the book value of an issuer or other objective measures of a company’s worth. If you invest in the Fund, you should be willing to accept the risks of the stock market and should consider an investment in the Fund only as a part of your overall investment portfolio.

Futures Contracts – The Funds may enter into futures contracts to hedge various investments for risk management as well as speculative purposes. Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into futures contracts and can be either cash or securities. Secondary margin limits are required to be maintained while futures are held, as defined by each contract.

During the period a futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking-to-market” on a daily basis to reflect the fair value of the contract at the end of each day’s trading. Variation margin receivables or payables represent the difference between the change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the open contracts

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)

 

and the cash deposits made on the margin accounts. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from the closing transaction and the Funds’ cost of entering into a contract. The use of futures contracts involves the risk of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the instruments and the underlying securities, or that the counterparty will fail to perform its obligations.

Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Funds may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contract and may realize a loss. See Note 3 for information on futures contract activity during the year or period ended January 31, 2019.

Options – A Fund may purchase call and put options on specific securities, and may write and sell covered or uncovered call and put options for hedging purposes in pursuing its investment objectives. A put option gives the purchaser of the option the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, the underlying security at a stated exercise price, typically at any time prior to the expiration of the option for American options or only at expiration for European options. A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and obligates the writer to sell, the underlying security at a stated exercise price, typically at any time prior to the expiration of the option. A covered call option is a call option with respect to which the seller of the option owns the underlying security. The sale of such an option exposes the seller during the term of the option to possible loss of opportunity to realize appreciation in the market price of the underlying security or to possible continued holding of a security that might otherwise have been sold to protect against depreciation in the market price of the security. A covered put option is a put option with respect to which cash or liquid securities have been placed in a segregated account on the books of a Fund or with a custodian to fulfill the obligation undertaken. The sale of such an option exposes the seller during the term of the option to a decline in price of the underlying security while depriving the seller of the opportunity to invest the segregated assets.

A Fund may close out a position when writing options by purchasing an option on the same underlying security with the same exercise price and expiration date as the option that it has previously written on the security. In such a case, the applicable Fund will realize a profit or loss if the amount paid to purchase an option is less or more than the amount received from the sale of the option. See Note 3. The Funds did not hold any options during the year or period ended January 31, 2019.

Swaps – The Funds may enter into swap contracts to hedge various investments for risk management or to pursue their investment objective. The Funds may invest in credit default swaps, total return swaps, interest rate swaps, equity swaps, currency swaps, options on foregoing swaps, and other types of swaps. Such transactions are subject to market risk, liquidity risk, risk of default by the other party to the transaction, known as “counterparty risk,” regulatory risk and risk of imperfect correlation between the value of such instruments and the underlying assets and may involve commissions or other costs. Swap agreements are valued by a pricing service and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded daily as the difference between the prior day and current day closing price. The Funds did not hold any swaps during the year or period ended January 31, 2019.

Balance Sheet Offsetting Information

During the ordinary course of business, the Funds may enter into transactions subject to enforceable netting agreements or other similar arrangements (“netting agreements”). Generally, the right to offset in netting agreements allows the Funds to offset any exposure to a specific counterparty with any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreement. Generally, the Funds manage their cash collateral and securities collateral on a counterparty basis. As of January 31, 2019, the Funds were not subject to any netting agreements.

NOTE 4. FEES AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, on behalf of the Funds (the “Agreement”), the Adviser manages the Funds’ investments subject to oversight of the Trustees. As compensation for its management services, Multi-Strategy Income Fund, Financials Income Fund, High Yield Opportunities Fund, and UltraShort Income Fund are obligated to pay the Adviser a fee computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.89%, 0.89%, 0.55%, and 0.44%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund waives its Advisory Fee on the assets invested in affiliated mutual funds.

The Adviser has entered into a subadvisory agreement with Parks Capital Management, LLC (the “Subadviser”) pursuant to which the Subadviser is compensated out of the investment advisory fees that the Adviser receives from the Multi-Strategy Income Fund and the Financials Income Fund at a rate of 0.445%. The Subadviser began managing a portion of Financials Income Fund’s portfolio in July 2018. As of January 31, 2019, the Subadviser has not begun managing a portion of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s portfolio.

The Adviser contractually agreed to waive or limit its fees and to assume other expenses of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, the Financials Income Fund, High Yield Opportunities Fund and UltraShort Income Fund until May 31, 2020, so that the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses of each Fund do not exceed 0.99%, 0.85%, 0.65% and 0.49%, respectively. Effective December 1, 2016, the Adviser also voluntarily agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse certain expenses to limit the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses after Fee Waiver/Expense Reimbursement to 0.69% of the Financials Income Fund’s average daily net assets. Effective May 7, 2018, the Adviser also voluntarily agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse certain expenses to limit the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses after Fee Waiver/Expense Reimbursement to 0.25% of the UltraShort Income Fund’s average daily net assets. These voluntary waivers are in addition to the contractual fee waiver/expense limitation agreement discussed above and may be discontinued at any time. Fees waived under these voluntary waivers are not subject to recoupment by the Adviser. These operating expense limitations do not apply to front-end sales loads, brokerage fees and commissions, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short), taxes, 12b-1 fees, extraordinary expenses and indirect expenses (such as “acquired funds fees and expenses”). In addition, the Adviser has contractually agreed through May 31, 2020 to waive the amount of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s management fee to the extent necessary to offset the proportionate share of the management fees incurred by the Fund through its investment in underlying funds for which the Adviser also serves as investment adviser. This arrangement may only be changed or eliminated by the Board of Trustees upon 60 days’ written notice to the Adviser.

The contractual waiver and/or reimbursement by the Adviser with respect to the Funds is subject to repayment by the Funds within 36 months following the month in which that particular waiver and/or reimbursement occurred, provided that the Funds are able to make the repayment without exceeding the expense limitations described above. During the period ended January 31, 2019, Multi- Strategy Income Fund repaid $1,118,919 of previously waived expenses to the Adviser, the High Yield Opportunities Fund waived $170,618 of expenses, and the UltraShort Income Fund waived $20,922 of expenses. During the year ended January 31, 2019, the Financials Income Fund had $860,519 of previously waived expenses expire. The expense limitation agreement specifically refers to amounts that are contractually waived, see Statements of Operations. The amounts subject to repayment by the Funds, pursuant to the aforementioned conditions at January 31, 2019 are included in the table below. Fees waived by the Predecessor High Yield Fund are not subject to recoupment by the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund.

Represents aggregated amounts of Fund’s investments, reverse repurchase agreements and futures.

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis in the funds are primarily attributable to wash sale loss deferrals, distributions payable, mark-to-markets, and other temporary differences.

As of January 31, 2019, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, Financials Income Fund, High Yield Opportunities Fund, and UltraShort Income Fund had available for federal tax purposes an unused capital loss carryforward of $429,889,531, $35,643,389, $1,322,776, and $0, respectively, which is available for offset against future taxable net capital gains. The Financials Income Fund utilized $9,785 of capital loss carryforward.

To the extent these carryforwards are used to offset futures gains, it is probably that the amount offset will not be distributed to shareholders. The carryforward expires as follows:

 

      Multi-Strategy
Income Fund
     Financials
Income Fund
     High Yield
Opportunities Fund
     UltraShort

Total    $ 429,889,531      $ 35,643,389      $ 1,322,776      $ —    

Certain capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the current taxable year, are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Funds’ following taxable year. For the tax year ended January 31, 2019, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, Financials Income Fund and High Yield Opportunities Fund, did not defer any post-October losses. For the tax period ended January 31, 2019, the UltraShort Income Fund deferred $217,763 of post-October losses.

NOTE 10. CREDIT AGREEMENTS

 

In August 2015, as amended October 2018, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund entered into a $400 million secured, committed, margin facility (the “Facility”) with Société Générale, which expires in April 2019. Under the Facility, interest is charged on a floating rate based on the 3-month LIBOR rate plus 1.10% and is payable on the last day of each interest period, which was 3.91% as of January 31, 2019. Under the previous terms, there was a maximum commitment of $375,000,000 and interest was charged on a floating rate based on the 3-month LIBOR rate plus 1.35%. For the year ended January 31, 2019, the average principal balance and interest rate was approximately $261,506,849 and 3.62%, respectively. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund is required to pay a commitment fee under the Facility on undrawn amounts, and additional fee if the level of debt outstanding falls below a certain percentage. During the reporting period the Multi-Strategy Income Fund was required to pay these commitment fees on undrawn amounts, which was 0.25% as of January 31, 2019. For the year ended January 31, 2019, these expenses, including interest expense and commitment fees, amounted to $9,919,321 and is included in the Interest and Commissions expense line item that is reflected in the Statements of Operations (consolidated where applicable). Under the terms of the Facility, the Multi-Strategy Income Fund is also required to satisfy certain collateral requirements and maintain a certain level of net assets. For additional information, see the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. As of January 31, 2019, the outstanding principal balance under the Facility was $250 million. The amount of the maximum loan outstanding during the period was $400 million from December 21, 2018 through January 17, 2019.

U.S. Bank, N.A. has made available to the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, Financials Income Fund, High Yield Opportunities Fund, and UltraShort Income Fund a $320,000,000 unsecured credit facility, pursuant to a Loan Agreement (“Agreement”) effective June 8, 2016, as amended May 24, 2018, expiring on May 23, 2019, for the purposes of having cash available to satisfy redemption requests. Advances under the Facility would be limited to the lesser of $320,000,000 or 20% of the unencumbered assets of the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, the Financials Income Fund, or the UltraShort Income Fund; or 15% of the unencumbered assets of the High Yield Opportunities Fund. Principal is due 45 days after the initial advance and at the maturity. Interest is payable monthly in arrears. Under the credit facility, the interest rate paid by the Funds on outstanding borrowings is equal to the one-month LIBOR, plus 1.75%, which was 4.26% as of January 31, 2019. For the period from February 1, 2018 to January 31, 2019, the average principal balance and interest rate was $73,332 and 4.08%, respectively for the Multi-Strategy Income Fund, $90,822 and 3.51%, respectively for the Financials Income Fund, and $521 and 3.38%, respectively for the High Yield Opportunities Fund. The UltraShort Income Fund did not borrow under this arrangement during this period. The maximum loan outstanding during the year for the Multi-Strategy Income Fund was $17,783,000 on October 31, 2018. The maximum loan outstanding during the year for the Financials Income Fund was $12,436,000 on February 1, 2018. The maximum loan outstanding during the year for the High Yield Opportunities Fund was $99,000 on February 14, 2018. As of January 31, 2019, the Funds had no outstanding borrowings under this agreement.

NOTE 11. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The amendments in the ASU shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities, held at a premium, to be amortized to the earliest call date. The ASU does not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; which continues to be amortized to estimated maturity. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this provision.

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The changes affect all companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. In general, the amendments in ASU 2018-13 are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt the removed or modified disclosures upon the issuance of ASU 2018-13 and may delay adoption of the additional disclosures, which are required for public companies only, until their effective date. Management has evaluated ASU 2018-13 and has adopted the disclosure framework.

NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Management of the Funds has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued. This evaluation did not result in any subsequent events that necessitated disclosures and/or adjustments.

4. Statement Regarding the Basis for the Approval of the Continuance of Investment Advisory Agreement

Pursuant to Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), at the telephonic meeting held on August 22, 2018 and the in-person meeting held on September 26-27, 2018 (the “Meetings”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Angel Oak Funds Trust (the “Trust”) considered the approval of the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement” or the “Agreement”) between the Trust, on behalf of the Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income Fund (the “Multi-Strategy Income Fund”), the Angel Oak Flexible Income Fund (the “Flexible Income Fund”), and the Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities Fund (the “High Yield Opportunities Fund”) (each, a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”), and Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser” or “Angel Oak”) for a one-year period. The Multi-Strategy Income Fund is the successor in interest to a fund having the same name and investment objective that was included as a series of another investment company, Valued Advisers Trust, and that was also advised by Angel Oak (the “Predecessor Multi-Strategy Income Fund”). The Predecessor Multi-Strategy Income Fund was reorganized into the Fund on April 10, 2015. The High Yield Opportunities Fund is the successor to the investment performance of the Rainier High Yield Fund (the “Predecessor High Yield Fund”) as a result of the reorganization of the Predecessor High Yield Fund into the Fund on April 15, 2016.

The relevant provisions of the 1940 Act specifically provide that it is the duty of the Board to request and evaluate such information as the Board determines is necessary to allow it to properly consider the renewal of the Agreement, and it is the duty of the Adviser to furnish the Trustees with information that is responsive to their request. Accordingly, in determining whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust with respect to the Funds, the Board requested, and the Adviser provided, information and data relevant to the Board’s consideration. This included materials prepared by the Adviser, the Funds’ administrator and an independent third-party data provider (the “Outside Data Provider”) that provided the Board with information regarding the fees and expenses of each Fund, as compared to other similar mutual funds.

Following their review and consideration, the Trustees determined that the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds would enable shareholders of the Funds to obtain high quality services at a cost that is appropriate, reasonable, and in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including those Trustees who are not considered to be “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement. In reaching their decision, the Trustees requested and obtained from the Adviser such information as they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Trustees also carefully considered the comparative fee and expense information prepared by the Adviser. In considering the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds, the Trustees evaluated a number of factors that they believed, in light of their reasonable business judgment, to be relevant. They based their decision on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any one specific consideration or any particular information that was controlling of their decision:

The nature, extent and quality of the advisory services to be provided. The Trustees concluded that Angel Oak is capable of providing high quality services to each Fund, as indicated by the nature and quality of services provided in the past to each Fund, Angel Oak’s management capabilities demonstrated with respect to each Fund, the professional qualifications and experience of the portfolio managers of each Fund, Angel Oak’s investment and management oversight processes, and the competitive investment performance of the Funds. The Trustees also determined that Angel Oak proposed to provide investment advisory services that were of the same quality as services it provided to each Fund in the past, and that these services are appropriate in scope and extent in light of the Funds’ operations, the competitive landscape of the investment company business and investor needs. The Trustees took into account Angel Oak’s oversight of Parks Capital Management, LLC (“Parks Capital”) in connection with Parks Capital serving as a sub-adviser with respect to a limited portion of the assets of the Flexible Income Fund and, potentially in the future, a limited portion of the assets of Multi-Strategy Income. On the basis of the Trustees’ assessment of the nature, extent and quality of the advisory services provided by Angel Oak, the Trustees concluded that Angel Oak is capable of continuing to generate a level of long-term investment performance that is appropriate in light of each Fund’s investment objective, policies and strategies and competitive with many other comparable investment companies.

The investment performance of the Funds. With respect to each Fund, the Trustees concluded on the basis of information derived from independent third-party data that Angel Oak had achieved investment performance that was competitive relative to the Fund’s category, as established by the Outside Data Provider, and a smaller peer group of comparable funds over longer-term trailing periods, and the Trustees took into consideration the fact that Angel Oak focuses on long-term performance results with respect to its management of the Funds and that the Funds may have periods of underperformance when measured on a more short-term basis. In considering the performance of the Funds, the Trustees reviewed reports comparing each Fund’s performance to: (i) the Fund’s category; (ii) a peer group of comparable mutual funds; and (iii) the Fund’s benchmark index.

With respect to the Multi-Strategy Income Fund (which commenced operations in June 2011), the Trustees noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the third quartile of the Fund’s peer group over the one-, three- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2018 and in the second quartile over the period since the Fund’s inception. They observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s category over the one- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2018 and since the Fund’s inception and had ranked in the second quartile over the three-year period ended June 30, 2018. The Trustees also noted that the Multi-Strategy Income Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, over the one-, three- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2018 and since the Fund’s inception.

With respect to the Flexible Income Fund (which commenced operations in November 2014), the Trustees observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period and in the fourth quartile for the three-year period ended June 30, 2018, and had ranked in the second quartile over the period since the Fund’s inception. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s category over the one-year period and in the fourth quartile over the three-year period ended June 30, 2018 and had ranked in the first quartile over the period since the Fund’s inception. The Trustees further noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, over the one-year and three-year periods ended June 30, 2018 and over the period since the Fund’s inception.

With respect to the High Yield Opportunities Fund (which commenced operations in March 2009), the Trustees noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s peer group over the three- and five- year periods and in the second quartile over the one-year period ended June 30, 2018 and had ranked in the second quartile over the period since the Fund’s inception. They observed that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had ranked in the first quartile of the Fund’s category over the one-, three- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2018 and had ranked in the fourth quartile over the period since the Fund’s inception. The Trustees also noted that the Fund’s Institutional Class shares had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index, and its former benchmark index, the Bank of America Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index, over the one-, three- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2018 and had underperformed over the period since the Fund’s inception.

On the basis of the Trustees’ assessment of the nature, extent and quality of advisory services provided by Angel Oak, the Trustees concluded that Angel Oak is capable of generating a level of long-term investment performance that is appropriate in light of each Fund’s investment objectives, policies and strategies and competitive with many other investment companies.

The cost of advisory services provided and the level of profitability. On the basis of comparative information derived from the expense data that was provided to the Board, the Trustees determined that the management fee and net expense ratio of the Flexible Income Fund and Multi-Strategy Income Fund was generally higher, and lower in the case of High Yield Opportunities Fund, than the median management fee and net expense ratio for funds in their respective peer groups. However, the Board noted that the quality of services provided by Angel Oak and the past performance of the Funds demonstrated that the advisory fee still offered an appropriate value for the Funds and their shareholders. In addition, the Trustees noted that Angel Oak had renewed its contractual commitment for the benefit of Fund shareholders to limit the operating expenses of each of the classes of shares of the Funds for an additional year through May 31, 2020.

The Board also reviewed the fees that Angel Oak charges its other clients for discretionary portfolio management services, noting that the firm has a variety of account types with different fee arrangements. The Board took into account the unique management requirements involved in managing a registered investment company as opposed to other types of client accounts.

The Board also considered Angel Oak’s current level of profitability with respect to each Fund, and noted that Angel Oak’s profitability was acceptable and not excessive and consistent with applicable industry averages. They noted that Angel Oak is committed to using its own resources to help improve the services it provides for the benefit of the Funds. They also noted that Angel Oak had provided information regarding its methodology for attributing profitability to each Fund, as opposed to its other lines of business. The Trustees also took into consideration the nature and extent of expenses that are borne directly by Angel Oak from its own financial resources to help to market and promote the Funds. Accordingly, on the basis of the Board’s review of the fees to be charged by Angel Oak for the investment advisory and other services provided to the Funds by Angel Oak, and the estimated profitability of Angel Oak’s relationship with each Fund, the Board concluded that the level of investment advisory fees and Angel Oak’s profitability are appropriate in light of the investment advisory fees, overall expense ratios and investment performance of comparable investment companies and the historical profitability of the relationship between each Fund and Angel Oak. The Trustees considered the profitability of Angel Oak both before and after the impact of the marketing-related expenses that Angel Oak incurs out of its own resources in connection with its management of the Funds.

The extent to which economies of scale may be realized as the Funds grow and whether the advisory fees reflect possible economies of scale. While it was noted that each Fund’s investment advisory fee will not decrease as the Fund’s assets grow because the Funds are not subject to investment advisory fee breakpoints, the Trustees concluded that each Fund’s investment advisory fee was appropriate in light of the projected size of the Fund and appropriately reflected the current economic environment for Angel Oak and the competitive nature of the mutual fund market. The Trustees then noted that they would have the opportunity to periodically re-examine whether each Fund had achieved economies of scale and the appropriateness of investment advisory fees payable to Angel Oak with respect to each Fund, in the future, at which time the implementation of fee breakpoints could be considered. Finally, the Trustees noted the improvements made to the Adviser’s infrastructure and services provided to each Fund, which had been funded by the advisory fees received by the Adviser.

Benefits to Angel Oak from its relationship with the Funds (and any corresponding benefits to the Funds). The Trustees concluded that other benefits derived by Angel Oak from its relationship with the Funds are reasonable and fair and consistent with industry practice and the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders.

Other Considerations. In approving the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Trustees determined that Angel Oak has made a substantial commitment to the recruitment and retention of high quality personnel, and maintains the financial, compliance and operational resources reasonably necessary to manage the Funds in a professional manner that is consistent with the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees also concluded that Angel Oak has made a significant entrepreneurial commitment to the management and success of the Funds, which entails a substantial financial and professional commitment, including the Operating Expense Limitation Agreement under which Angel Oak has undertaken to waive a portion of its fees to the benefit of Fund shareholders to the extent necessary in accordance with the terms of the Operating Expense Limitation Agreement. The Trustees observed that those waivers were subject to recoupment under the terms of the Operating Expense Limitation Agreement and that Angel Oak had recouped previously-waived fees with respect to the Multi-Strategy Income Fund. The Board also considered matters with respect to the brokerage practices of Angel Oak, including its best-execution procedures, and noted that these were reasonable and consistent with standard industry practice.

Following further discussion and the consideration of questions raised by the Independent Trustees, the Trustees determined that they had received sufficient information relating to the Funds in order to consider the approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement. It

was noted that, in making their determinations, the Trustees had considered and relied upon not only the materials provided to them for use at the Meetings with respect to the proposed contract renewal, but also the information about the Funds and Angel Oak that had been provided to them throughout the past year in connection with their regular Board meetings at which they engage in the ongoing oversight of the Funds and their operations. In reaching their conclusion with respect to the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the level of fees paid under the Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any one single factor as being controlling, but, rather, the Board took note of a combination of factors that had influenced their decision making process. They noted the level and quality of investment advisory services provided by the Adviser to each of the Funds, and they found that these services continued to benefit the shareholders of the Funds and also reflected management’s overall commitment to the continued growth and development of the Funds.

The registrant’s board of trustees has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. Mr. Alvin Albe, Jr. is the “audit committee financial expert” and is considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services during the past two fiscal years. “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years. “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.

All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements were attributed to work performed by full-time permanent employees of the principal accountant.

The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (and any other controlling entity, etc.—not sub-adviser) for the last two years. The audit committee of the board of trustees/directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
