PENN CAPITAL FUNDS TRUST

Advisor’s Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)

Dear Penn Capital Funds Shareholder:

Credit markets awakened from their lows since March 2020 due in large part from the Federal Reserve’s (“Fed”) announcement of extraordinary liquidity measures, as well as the passage of the CARES Act that provided over $2 trillion of economic relief to American families, workers, and healthcare providers. During our fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the government authorized two additional rounds of stimulus: the Consolidated Appropriations Act and the American Rescue Plan. This combination of governmental stimulus and the promise of direct purchases by the Fed in numerous credit markets helped stave off investors’ worst fears and provided the base for a spread-tightening (difference in yield between a treasury bond and a corporate bond of the same maturity) rally that lasted throughout the last year.

On November 9th, 2020, Pfizer and BioNTech announced that their mRNA-based vaccine was more than 90% effective against the original COVID strain with strong safety data. Just three weeks later, Moderna announced similar strong clinical trial data for its vaccine. The successful mRNA vaccine development and rollout provided the global economy hope that the pandemic could be managed and ultimately contained. The combination of government stimulus and COVID-19 vaccine development created favorable market conditions for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Our investment strategies incorporate Penn Capital’s Complete Capital Structure Analysis^®, an in-depth high yield (“HY”) and equity research philosophy used to identify a company’s optimal capital structure. Our investment professionals are capital structure generalists, meaning they are responsible for understanding the entire capital structure of the companies they follow. By following this philosophy, we believe that integrating credit and equity research allows us to construct a more comprehensive investment mosaic. Participating in both credit and equity markets, along with this integrated research process, provides Penn Capital’s investment team with what we believe is an informational advantage. Finding inefficiencies in the market can be challenging, but we remain committed to the pursuit of strong investment returns on behalf of our shareholders.

The following pages review the current market environment and provide additional insight into our funds and their performance over the past fiscal year. Once again, I would like to thank you for your confidence in investing with us.

Overview

Capital markets experienced a strong recovery in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 with economic support from the Fed and the U.S. Treasury, as well as the three COVID-19 vaccine rollouts. Continuing jobless claims receded from 16.8 million to 3.4 million during the fiscal year as a strong reduction in unemployment rates occurred during the second half of 2020. All these factors rallied the corporate credit market with HY credit spreads moving from an elevated status in June 2020 to a tightening status in June 2021, signaling a low default outlook over the next 12-24 months. Over the past fiscal year, the equity market rallied with very strong returns stemming from smaller capitalization companies as credit risk was reduced and economic prospects improved.

While the pandemic is an unprecedented event that caused disruption and business transformation, in our opinion, it has created three unique events: (1) some companies have benefitted from the pandemic with clear examples residing in the technology sector ranging from online meetings to online shopping. These beneficiaries will seek to lock in their gains by making the pandemic induced behavior changes permanent. Will behavior permanently change?; (2) most companies have successfully navigated the pandemic and have sales that are near pre-pandemic levels while enjoying solid margins due to reduced employee costs from reduced headcount and expense accounts. Can they lock in efficiency gains?; (3) certain industries were heavily impacted by the pandemic where recovery was delayed. Travel-related companies, such as cruise lines, are slowly ramping up operations as their customers have not enjoyed their services for at least 18 months. Is there pent-up demand or have customers found other forms of entertainment? As the pandemic recedes, investors are challenged with identifying which changes are sustainable versus transitory as they relate to business models.

We expect the COVID-19 pandemic to gradually recede over the next few months as vaccination rates rise and cases of severe disease subside. While a full economic reopening may not yet occur, we do see promise where individuals may gather with less health risk including workers returning to offices and children returning to schools. In the current environment, we believe cyclical companies have an opportunity to participate in a global recovery as such companies may also benefit from supportive credit markets and attractive valuations.

While we are optimistic today, risks remain to the ongoing recovery. Extended unemployment claim benefits are scheduled to roll off in September 2021 as the economy continues to slowly move toward normalization. A recent rise in COVID-19 cases associated with the Delta variant has delayed the expected return to the office; as such, to achieve fuller employment, children will also need to return to school. The unprecedented government support programs will need to slow down in the short term and

1

cease in the intermediate term. The various stimulus packages have created the desired effect, but the potential pain of withdrawal is difficult to gauge. As always, and as the last 18 months have clearly demonstrated, unexpected events can radically shift the investing landscape in the future.

The following paragraphs provide more detailed information on the performance of our funds, as well as selected holdings.

Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund (formerly, Penn Capital Defensive Floating Rate Income Fund)

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund (the “Floating Rate Income Fund”) generated a +7.95% return versus +7.17% for its benchmark, the S&P/LSTA BB Ratings Loan Index. The Floating Rate Income Fund is a more conservative strategy emphasizing BB-rated loans* with no triple-C rated or 2nd lien loan exposure. The Floating Rate Income Fund histroically lagged sharp recoveries like we had in 2020. We do not believe the phasing out of LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate, a benchmark interest rate at which major global banks lend to one another in the international market) will have a material impact on the Floating Rate Income Fund.

While the Floating Rate Income Fund’s underweight to single-B rated loans resulted in a performance lag, the strategy elsewhere benefitted from good security selection and overweight positioning to sectors tied to a reopening economy. This included Consumer Discretionary, Airlines, and Leisure. Security selection within software also helped performance, as did an allocation to HY bonds, as bonds outperformed loans. The Floating Rate Income Fund is under-indexed to the market’s largest 100 loans, which was a detriment to performance for the year.

The Floating Rate Income Fund’s investments in the Specialty Retail, Leisure & Travel, and Airlines sectors provided the largest industry contributions whereas security selection within Telecom negatively impacted performance as did an underweight allocation to commodity sectors. The top single name contributors to performance were Bob’s Discount Furniture, Life Time Fitness, and Allegiant Airlines. We expect Bob’s Discount Furniture to refinance its term loan in the next 12 months and Life Time Fitness just announced plans to launch its IPO, or initial public offering. Allegiant Airlines’ business continued to recover as leisure flying rebounded. Top single name detractors included Telesat and SS&C Technology. Telesat lagged on credit concerns related to a large capital expenditure cycle and we exited the loan. SS&C is a high-quality company and lagged the low quality rally.

Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund (formerly, Penn Capital Defensive Short Duration High Income Fund)

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund (the “Short Duration Fund”) generated an 8.42% return, performing in-line with its benchmark, the ICE BofA 1-3 Year BB-Rated US Cash Pay HY Index, which returned 9.01%. The Short Duration Fund maintains an average portfolio maturity of three years or less and excludes triple C-rated bonds. The Short Duration Fund has historically underperformed the broad short duration market, which includes triple C-rated bonds, during low quality rallies (2021), and has historically outperformed during low quality sell-offs (2020).

The Short Duration Fund benefitted from an overweight position and strong security selection within COVID-19 “re-opening plays,” such as the Retail and Transports sectors, mainly via higher coupon (annual interest payment on a bond) secured paper including L Brands and Delta Airlines. Additionally, the Short Duration Fund benefitted from security selection within commodity-oriented industries, such as Chemicals and Metals/Mining, whereas the impact of the Energy sector on performance was neutral. Both an underweight position and strong security selection within the Telecommunications and Technology sectors contributed to performance.

The largest single detractors to performance were cash and underweights to Ford (Automotive) and Deutsche Bank (Financial Services) due to portfolio guideline requirements. As the ICE BofA 1-3 Year BB-Rated US Cash Pay HY Index is unconstrained, its Ford average weighting neared 15% whereas the Short Duration Fund’s single position size limitation is 5%. Deutsche Bank has a single large index issue: a fixed-to-float bond that matures in 2028 but is callable in 2023. We are considerate of final maturity in our guidelines and 2028 was a bridge too far.

During the fiscal year, the Short Duration Fund held an average weighting of 3.5% in cash and 5.7% in bank loan securities via exposure to a combination of individual bank loan holdings and an investment in the Floating Rate Income Fund. Our loan positions performed in-line with bonds. Given the rally in bond yields during the past year, and given our constructive view on credit fundamentals, we would expect to be increasing our loan weighting from its fiscal year-end 4.5% level; higher quality loans should help to provide cushion against unexpected Fed rate hikes.

* Bond ratings are grades given to bonds that indicate their credit quality as determined by private independent rating services such as Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and Fitch. These firms evaluate a bond issuer’s financial strength, or its ability to pay a bond’s principal and interest in a timely fashion. Ratings are expressed as letters ranging from `AAA’, which is the highest grade, to `D’, which is the lowest grade. Investment-Grade refers to a bond considered investment grade if its credit rating is BBB- or higher. Below Investment grade refers to a security that is rated below investment grade.

Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund (formerly, Penn Capital Multi-Credit High Income Fund)

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund (the “Opportunistic High Income Fund”) generated a +19.22% return, outperforming the +15.60% return of its benchmark, the ICE BofA US HY Constrained Index. The HY market over the 12-month period experienced a significant recovery from the combined shock of COVID-19 and depressed oil prices. Aggressive Fed policy and news of successful vaccines helped reopen the economy and restore companies’ access to the capital markets. Thanks to rising stock prices, consumers emerged from the crisis with record levels of wealth and renewed confidence in the U.S. economy. As a result, the HY market generated its largest total return since 2016. The rally disproportionately benefitted low quality bonds and cyclical sectors whose businesses were most negatively impacted by COVID-19, particularly Energy, Leisure, Transportation, and Consumer Discretionary.

During the summer of 2020, we repositioned the strategy in anticipation of an improving economy by shifting to an overweight allocation of triple C-rated bonds, commodities, and sectors tied to a reopening economy. This included Leisure, Transportation, and Consumer Discretionary sectors. The Opportunistic High Income Fund reduced its exposure to bank loans by half over the fiscal year as secured bank debt has historically lagged bonds when exiting a recession. With corporate borrowing access on the rise and spreads on the mend, the Opportunistic High Income Fund also began to unwind its exposure to investment grade issuers that were benefitting from a Fed backstop while capital markets were shut down. The Opportunistic High Income Fund continues to overweight “rising star” credits, or BB-rated bonds that we believe could be upgraded to investment grade in the near future. While recent news of the Delta variant and concerns around Fed tapering have caused economically sensitive sectors to underperform in July and August, we heavily discount concerns of widespread economic shutdowns in the fall and believe the long term trajectory of the recovery is intact. We are, however, mindful that the timing and pace of the recovery may be lengthier and choppier than previously anticipated. Although spreads are low, the HY asset class is on pace to experience a 1% type default rate in 2021 and 2022.

The largest positive contributors during the fiscal year were security selection in the Telecommunication, Energy Exploration & Production, and Media & Broadcasting sectors. Investments in these sectors outperformed as a result of strong security selection and favorable sector weightings. The Opportunistic High Income Fund’s largest single name contributor to performance was Gogo, a leading inflight internet and entertainment provider, as the company underwent a successful corporate separation that alleviated its financial distress. An investment in Antero Resources, a natural gas liquids producer, also contributed significantly to performance. Holdings in the Energy Service, Aerospace, and Media sectors contributed the greatest share of negative performance during the fiscal year, particularly Nine Energy Services and Diamond Sports, both companies that fundamentally lagged the recovery. The Opportunistic High Income Fund’s exposure to floating rate bank debt modestly hindered performance as well.

Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund (formerly, Penn Capital Managed Alpha SMID Cap Equity Fund)

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund (the “Mid Cap Core Fund”) generated a 45.88% return underperforming the 57.79% return of its benchmark, the Russell 2500™ Index. The Mid Cap Core Fund underperformed during the sharp equity market rally in 4Q 2020 (“4Q20”) as positive COVID-19 vaccine data was released and the U.S. Presidential election reached a resolution. The Mid Cap Core Fund repositioned, aiming to benefit from an improving economy in 4Q20, to more fully participate in the economic recovery.

Best performing sectors during the fiscal year were Communication Services, Utilities, and Materials. In the Communication Services sector, TripAdvisor benefitted from growing consumer demand to book travel as the COVID-19 pandemic slowed. The Mid Cap Core Fund’s underweight position in the Utilities sector benefitted in a strong equity market environment. In the Materials sector, Steel Dynamics benefitted from rising steel prices as commodity demand improved through the fiscal year.

Sectors that hindered performance included Industrials, Information Technology, and Consumer Discretionary. Mercury Systems, a defense contractor, experienced slowing backlog growth as the Department of Defense contract awards were sluggish due to the pandemic. Schneider National, a trucking company, was less economically sensitive than competitors due to its contracted business model. Allison Transmission faced disruption fears as commercial vehicles considered using electric vehicles that utilize new propulsion systems. In the Information Technology sector, GoDaddy confronted growth challenges as its business lapped a strong shift to online marketing and e-commerce for small businesses in the prior year. Liberty Media Sirius XM lagged the market, retained steady Sirius subscription trends, and initiated a strategic investment in Live Nation, the concert promotion company.

Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund (the “Special Situations Fund”) generated a +112.11% return, outperforming the +62.03% return of its benchmark, the Russell 2000^® Index. Risk assets rallied virtually unabated throughout the fiscal year driven by the development, approval, and initial rollout of multiple COVID-19 vaccines, support from economic stimulus, an easing Fed policy, and the resilience of businesses and consumers as they transitioned

3

to telecommuting and adapted to the “new normal.” After spiking to the highest levels since the Great Recession in early 2020, HY credit spreads moved consistently lower throughout the fiscal year as corporations tightened their belts to preserve cash and successfully tapped the market with new debt issuance to improve liquidity, extend maturity runway, and de-risk their balance sheets. Steady improvement in the HY markets and sequential momentum in the domestic economy drove outperformance for the Special Situations Fund. As our confidence in the recovery grew, the strategy increased its overweight to the shares of cyclical, value, and levered companies best positioned to, in our view, benefit from re-opening.

The Information Technology, Consumer Discretionary, and Healthcare sectors were the leading contributors to performance primarily driven by favorable stock selection. In the Information Technology sector, MTS Systems Corporation, a manufacturer of computer-based testing and simulation systems, was acquired by electrical components maker Amphenol Corporation for $58.50 per share in cash, a 52% premium. Within the Consumer Discretionary sector, casino operator Golden Entertainment delivered revenue and EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization; a measure of a company’s overall financial performance) above Street expectations, driven by rapid recovery at its Nevada locals properties, sequential occupancy improvement on the Las Vegas Strip, and cost efficiencies that should drive future margin expectations well above historical averages. In the Healthcare sector, hospital operator Community Health Systems demonstrated continued improvement in operating fundamentals as same-store patient volumes recovered and profitability benefitted from cost controls and divestitures of underperforming locations. Successful debt refinancing has vastly improved the company’s credit profile by extending maturities, reducing interest expense, and boosting free cash flow (“FCF”) (represents the cash available for the company to repay creditors or pay dividends and interest to investors).

While all 11 sectors contributed positively to performance, the Real Estate, Materials, and Consumer Staples sectors provided the smallest lift relative to the benchmark. Within the Real Estate sector, data center REIT QTS Realty Trust lagged amid a broad rotation towards more economically sensitive issues. In the Materials sector, precious metals company SSR Mining delivered production, costs, and FCF that were generally in-line with market expectations though shares underperformed peers with more exposure to favorable re-opening trends. Within the Consumer Staples sector, warehouse membership club retailer BJ’s Wholesale delivered significant increases in sales, earnings, and FCF but underperformed as investors sold COVID-19 beneficiaries in favor of names with more leverage to the recovery.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Unusually favorable market conditions and high returns may not be sustainable or repeated in the future.

This letter reflects Penn Capital’s analysis and opinions as of the most recent fiscal year-end. The information is not a complete analysis of any market, country, industry, security, or fund and should not be considered as a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any specific security or securities. Portfolio holdings are subject to change at any time. Please see the Schedules of Investments provided in this report for the complete listing of each Fund’s holdings.

All investments involve risk, including possible loss of principal, and there is no guarantee the Funds will achieve their investment objectives. Investments made in small and mid-capitalization companies may be more volatile and less liquid due to limited resources or product lines and more sensitive to economic factors. Investments in ETFs are subject to the same risks as the underlying securities in which the ETF invests as well as entails higher expenses than if invested into the underlying ETF directly. Investments in foreign securities and ADRs involve certain risks such as currency volatility, political and social instability and reduced market liquidity. As interest rates rise the value of bond prices will decline. Credit risk refers to the loss in the value of a security based on a default in the payment of principle and/or interest of the security, or the perception of the market of such default. High-yield bonds have a higher risk of default or other adverse credit events, but have the potential to pay higher earnings over investment grade bonds. The value of convertible securities tends to decline as interest rates rise and, because of the conversion feature, tends to vary with fluctuations in the market value of the underlying securities. Bank loans in which the Fund may invest have similar risks to below investment grade fixed income securities. In the event of the insolvency of an agent bank, a loan could be subject to settlement risk as well as the risk of interruptions in the administrative duties performed in the day to day administration of the loan.

PENN CAPITAL SPECIAL SITUATIONS SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND

FUND SUMMARY (UNAUDITED)

This chart assumes a hypothetical initial gross investment of $10,000 made on December 17, 2015, inception of the Institutional Class shares. Returns shown in the chart and table include the reinvestment of all dividends, but do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. In the absence of fee waivers and reimbursements, when they are necessary to keep expenses at the expense cap, total return would be reduced. Past performance is not predictive of future performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than that shown. To obtain performance current to the most recent month-end please call 844-302 PENN (7366) or visit www.penncapitalfunds.com. Index returns do not reflect the effects of fees, transaction costs or expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. No information is provided for Investor Class shares because shares of that class had not yet been issued as of June 30, 2021.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited)

FOR THE PERIOD FROM January 1, 2021 TO June 30, 2021

Cost in Dollars of a $1,000 Investment

The example below is intended to describe the fees and expenses borne by shareholders during the six-month period from January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021, and the impact of those costs on your investment.

Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees on sales (as applicable) and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses (as applicable). This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021.

This example illustrates your Fund’s ongoing costs in two ways:

Actual Expenses

The second and third data columns in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid during the period ended June 30, 2021. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled Expenses Paid During Period to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The fourth and fifth data columns in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balances or expenses you paid for the six-month period shown. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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 redemption fees. Therefore, the fourth and fifth data columns of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Percentages are stated as a percent of net assets.    

(a) Bank Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and secondarily, the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders.

(b) Senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will typically have an expected average life of approximately two to four years.

(c) Securities purchased pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be sold only to dealers in that program or other “qualified institutional buyers.” As of June 30, 2021, the value of these investments was $1,280,376, or 4.2% of total net assets.

(d) The Money Market Deposit Account (“MMDA”) is a short-term investment vehicle in which the Funds hold cash balances. The MMDA will bear interest at a variable rate that is determined based on market conditions and may change daily and by any amount. The rate shown is as of June 30, 2021.

Percentages are stated as a percent of net assets.

(a) Securities purchased pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be sold only to dealers in that program or other “qualified institutional buyers.” As of June 30, 2021, the value of these investments was $13,504,821, or 67.2% of total net assets.

(b) Bank Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and secondarily, the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders.

(c) Senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will typically have an expected average life of approximately two to four years.

(d) The Money Market Deposit Account (“MMDA”) is a short-term investment vehicle in which the Funds hold cash balances. The MMDA will bear interest at a variable rate that is determined based on market conditions and may change daily and by any amount. The rate shown is as of June 30, 2021.

(c) Senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will typically have an expected average life of approximately two to four years.

(d) Affiliated company. See Note 7.

(e) The Money Market Deposit Account (“MMDA”) is a short-term investment vehicle in which the Funds hold cash balances. The MMDA will bear interest at a variable rate that is determined based on market conditions and may change daily and by any amount. The rate shown is as of June 30, 2021.

PENN CAPITAL FUNDS TRUST

Notes to the Financial Statements

June 30, 2021

1. Organization

PENN Capital Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on August 29, 2014, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of five series that are available for investment: the Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund (formerly the Penn Capital Defensive Floating Rate Income Fund), the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund (formerly the Penn Capital Managed Alpha SMID Cap Equity Fund), the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund (formerly the Penn Capital Multi-Credit High Income Fund), the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund (formerly the Penn Capital Defensive Short Duration High Income Fund) and the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund (collectively referred to as the “Funds” and each individually referred to as a “Fund”). Two other series: the Penn Capital Micro Cap Equity Fund and the Penn Capital Enterprise Value Small Cap Equity Fund are not currently offered. The Funds follow the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services- Investment Companies”.

The Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide current income. The Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund commenced operations on November 30, 2015.

The Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide total return through interest income and capital appreciation. The Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund commenced operations on November 30, 2015.

The Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide a high level of current income. The Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund commenced operations on July 17, 2017.

The Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund and the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide capital appreciation. The Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund commenced operations on November 30, 2015. The Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund commenced operations on December 17, 2015.

Each Fund’s investment objective is non-fundamental, and may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) without shareholder approval. Unless otherwise noted, all of the other investment policies and strategies described in the Prospectus or hereafter are nonfundamental. The Penn Capital Management Company, LLC (the “Advisor” or “Penn Capital”) serves as the investment advisor to the Funds.

The Trust offers two classes of shares for the Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund, the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund, the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund and the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund: Institutional and Investor Class. The Trust offers Institutional Class shares for the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund. The Trust has also registered two other series, each with one class: the Penn Capital Micro Cap Equity Fund and the Penn Capital Enterprise Value Small Cap Equity Fund: Institutional Class. No information is provided in this report for Investor Class shares because shares of that class had not yet been issued as of June 30, 2021. Neither class has a front-end or back-end sales charge. The Penn Capital Micro Cap Equity Fund and Penn Capital Enterprise Value Small Cap Fund have not commenced operations as of June 30, 2021.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

A.    Investment Valuation

The Funds use the following valuation methods to determine fair value as either fair value for investments for which market quotations are available, or if not available, the fair value, as determined in good faith pursuant to such policies and procedures as may be approved by the Trust’s Board from time to time. The valuation of the portfolio investments of the Funds currently includes the following processes:

Portfolio securities listed on a national or foreign securities exchange, except those listed on the NASDAQ^® Stock Market and Small CapSM exchanges (“NASDAQ^®”), for which market quotations are available, are valued at the official closing price of such exchange on each business day (defined as days on which the Funds are open for business (“Business Day”)). Portfolio securities

46

PENN CAPITAL FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2021

traded on the NASDAQ^® will be valued at the NASDAQ^® Official Closing Price on each Business Day. If there is no such reported sale on an exchange or NASDAQ^®, the portfolio security will be valued at the most recent quoted bid price. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded.

Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (such as for certain restricted or unlisted securities and private placements) or that may not be reliably priced (such as in the case of trade suspensions or halts, price movement limits set by certain foreign markets, and thinly traded or illiquid securities) will be valued in good faith at fair value using procedures and methods approved by the Board. Under the procedures adopted by the Board, the Board has delegated day-to-day responsibility for fair value determinations to a Valuation Committee comprised of representatives from the Advisor.

A Fund’s portfolio holdings may also consist of shares of other investment companies in which the Fund invests. The value of each such investment company will be its net asset value (“NAV”) at the time the Fund’s shares are priced. Each investment company calculates its NAV based on the current market value for its portfolio holdings. Each investment company values securities and other instruments in a manner as described in that investment company’s prospectus. The investment company’s prospectus explains the circumstances under which the company will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.

Because a Fund may invest in foreign securities, the Fund’s NAV may change on days when a shareholder will not be able to purchase or redeem Fund shares because foreign markets are open at times and on days when U.S. markets are not. Investments quoted in foreign currencies will be valued daily in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at the time such valuation is determined. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). If an event that could materially affect the value of the Fund’s foreign securities has occurred between the time the securities were last traded and the time that the Fund calculates its NAV, the closing price of the Fund’s securities may no longer reflect their market value at the time the Fund calculates its NAV. In such a case, the Fund may use fair value methods to value such securities.

Fixed income securities shall be valued at the evaluated bid price supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on broker-dealer supplied valuations and other criteria, or directly by independent brokers when the pricing agent does not provide a price or the Valuation Committee does not believe that the pricing agent price reflects the current market value. If a price of a position is sought using independent brokers, the Advisor shall seek to obtain an evaluation bid price from at least two independent brokers who are knowledgeable about the position. The price of the position would be deemed to be an average of such bid prices. In the absence of sufficient broker dealer quotes, securities shall be valued at fair value pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board.

Bank loans are not listed on any securities exchange or board of trade. They are typically bought and sold by institutional investors in individually negotiated private transactions that function in many respects like an over-the-counter secondary market. This market generally has fewer trades and less liquidity than the secondary market for other types of securities. Some bank loans have few or no trades, or trade infrequently, and information regarding a specific bank loan may not be widely available or may be incomplete. Except as otherwise specified, bank loan securities shall be valued at the evaluated bid prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on broker-dealer supplied valuations and other criteria, such as, issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets, or directly by independent brokers when the pricing agent does not provide a price or the Valuation Committee does not believe that the pricing agent price reflects the current market value. If a price of a position is sought using independent brokers, the Advisor shall seek to obtain a bid price from at least two independent brokers who are knowledgeable about the position. The price of the position would be deemed to be an average of such bid prices. In the absence of sufficient broker dealer quotes, securities shall be valued at fair value pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board.

Occasionally, reliable market quotations are not readily available (such as for certain restricted or unlisted securities and private placements) or securities and other assets may not be reliably priced (such as in the case of trade suspensions or halts, price movement limits set by certain foreign markets, and thinly traded or illiquid securities), or there may be events affecting the value of foreign securities or other securities held by the Funds that occur when regular trading on foreign or other exchanges is closed, but before trading on the NYSE is closed. Fair value determinations are then made in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Under the procedures adopted by the Board, the Board has delegated the responsibility for making fair value determinations to a Valuation Committee, subject to the Board’s oversight. Generally, the fair value of a portfolio security or other asset shall be the amount that the owner of the security or asset might reasonably expect to receive upon its current sale. A three-tier

hierarchy is utilized to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities that the Funds have the ability to access

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of June 30, 2021, in valuing each Fund’s investments:

(a) All other industry classifications are identified in the Schedule of Investments for each Fund.

B. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis, including the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on bonds held using the yield-to-maturity method. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date.

Realized gains and losses on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are reported for financial statement and federal income tax purposes on the identified cost method.

C. Expenses

Certain expenses are shared with The RBB Fund, Inc. (“RBB”), an affiliated fund. Expenses incurred on behalf of a specific class, fund or fund family of the Trust or RBB are charged directly to the class, fund or fund family (in proportion to net assets). Expenses incurred for all of the funds (such as trustee or professional fees) are charged to all funds in proportion to their average net assets of the Trust and RBB, or in such other manner as the Board deems fair or equitable.

D. Use of Estimates

The preparation of the 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 and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

E. Dividends and Distributions

Dividends and distributions to Shareholders are recorded on the ex-date. The Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund, Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund and the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund declare and distribute their net investment income, if any, monthly and make distributions of their net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, usually in December. The Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund and the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund declare and distribute their net investment income, if any, annually and make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, usually in December.

The character of distributions made during the period from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. In addition, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal period in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the period that income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by each Fund.

F. Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent they distribute all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing their tax returns to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not (i.e., greater than 50%) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provision in the current period and have no provision for taxes in the financial statements. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last three open tax year ends, as applicable) and on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

G. Indemnifications

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust and each Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide general indemnification to other parties. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred, and may not occur. However, the Trust has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and considers the risk of loss to be remote.

3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

The Trust has entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Advisor. Under the terms of the agreement, each Fund pays the Advisor a fee, payable at the end of each month, at an annual rate, set forth in the table below, of the respective Fund’s average daily net assets.

Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund	0.55%
Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund	0.90%
Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund	0.69%

With respect to each Fund other than the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund and the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or pay Fund expenses so that the Funds’ total annual operating expenses (excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs, and extraordinary and other non-routine expenses) do not exceed the amounts shown below as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets. With respect to the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund and the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or pay Fund expenses so that the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (including any acquired fund fees and expenses incurred by the Fund as a result of its investments in other investment companies managed by the Advisor, but excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses incurred by the Fund as a result of its investments in unaffiliated investment companies, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs, and extraordinary and other non-routine expenses) do not exceed the amounts shown below as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

Distribution Agreement

Foreside Fund Services, LLC is the Trust’s distributor and principal underwriter (the “Distributor”). The Trust has adopted a plan of distribution under Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act applicable to the Investor Class. Under the plan, 12b-1 distribution fees at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets of Investor Class shares are paid to the Distributor or others for distribution and shareholder services. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, there were no distribution fees paid under the plan because the Investor Class shares had not yet been issued as of June 30, 2021

The Trust has engaged U.S. Bank Global Fund Services to serve as each Fund’s administrator, fund accountant, and transfer agent. The Trust has engaged U.S. Bank N.A. to serve as each Fund’s custodian.

Shareholder Servicing Plan

The Trust has adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan on behalf of each Fund’s Investor Class and Institutional Class. Under the plan, each Class can pay for non-distribution related shareholder support services (‘‘service fees’’) in an amount up to 0.15% of its average daily net assets. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, there were no service fees incurred by the Investor Class shares because the Investor Class shares had not yet been issued as of June 30, 2021. The amount actually incurred by the Institutional Class shares for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, on an annualized basis was 0.06% for the Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund, 0.04% for the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund, 0.04% for the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund, 0.13% for the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund and 0.14% for the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund.

Other Related Party Transactions

The Advisor and its affiliates have made investments in the Funds and accordingly, as shareholders of the Funds, pay a proportionate share of the Funds’ investment advisory fees and other expenses identified in each Fund’s Prospectus.

4. Federal Tax Information

It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.

The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains or losses on investments. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, may result in reclassifications to distributable earnings and additional paid-in capital.

8. Credit Risk, LIBOR and Asset Concentration

Small- and mid-capitalization companies may not have the size, resources and other assets of large capitalization companies. As a result, the securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies may be subject to greater market risks and fluctuations in value than large capitalization companies or may not correspond to changes in the stock market in general. In addition, small- and mid-capitalization companies may be particularly affected by interest rate increases, as they may find it more difficult to borrow money to continue or expand operations, or may have difficulty in repaying any loans.

High yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality have speculative characteristics and involve greater volatility of price and yield, greater of liquidity risk, and generally reflect a greater possibility of an adverse change in financial condition that could affect an issuer’s ability to honor its obligations.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2021

There are a number of risks associated with an investment in bank loans, including credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. Lack of an active trading market, restrictions on resale, irregular trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods may impair the Fund’s ability to sell bank loans within its desired time frame or at an acceptable price and its ability to accurately value existing and prospective investments. Extended trade settlement periods may result in cash not being immediately available to the Fund. As a result of such illiquidity, the Fund may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions to raise cash to meet its obligations.

A Fund may invest in certain instruments that rely in some fashion upon London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR is an average interest rate, determined by the ICE Benchmark Administration, that banks charge one another for the use of short-term money. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced plans to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. The FCA and ICE Benchmark Administrator have since announced that most LIBOR settings will no longer be published after December 31, 2021 and a majority of U.S. dollar LIBOR settings will cease publication after June 30, 2023. The U.S. Federal Reserve, based on the recommendations of the New York Federal Reserve’s Alternative Reference Rate Committee (comprised of major derivative market participants and their regulators), has begun publishing SOFR that is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Proposals for alternative reference rates for other currencies have also been announced or have already begun publication. Uncertainty related to the liquidity impact of the change in rates, and how to appropriately adjust these rates at the time of transition, poses risks for the Funds. The effect of any changes to, or discontinuation of, LIBOR on the Funds will depend on, among other things, (1) existing fallback or termination provisions in individual contracts and (2) whether, how, and when industry participants develop and adopt new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new instruments and contracts. The expected discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets in general and may also present heightened risk to market participants, including public companies, investment advisers, investment companies, and broker-dealers. The risks associated with this discontinuation and transition will be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the transition away from LIBOR on the Funds until new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new instruments and contracts are commercially accepted and market practices become settled.

9. Line of Credit

PENN Capital Funds Trust has a $10,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured, umbrella 364-day line of credit, for temporary purposes, including to meet redemption requests. The interest rate as of June 30, 2021 was 3.25%. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund, the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund, and the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund did not use the credit line.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, line of credit activity for the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund and Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity was as follows:

Fund	Average Borrowings		Amount Outstanding as of June 30, 2021		Interest Expense		Maximum Borrowing
Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund	$	2,375	$	—	$	78	$	334,000
Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund		93		—		3		20,000

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (‘‘ASU 2020-04’’). The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional temporary financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates as of the end of 2021. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any of applying this ASU.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2021

In December 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted a new rule providing a framework for fund valuation practices (“Rule 2a-5”). Rule 2a-5 establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 will permit fund boards to designate certain parties to perform fair value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. Rule 2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for determining whether a fund must fair value a security. In connection with Rule 2a-5, the SEC also adopted related recordkeeping requirements and is rescinding previously issued guidance, including with respect to the role of a board in determining fair value and the accounting and auditing of fund investments. The Funds will be required to comply with the rules by September 8, 2022. Management is currently assessing the potential impact of the new rules on the Funds’ financial statements.

11. Concentration Risks

The Advisor and its employees collectively have beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 20% of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2021. In addition to the Advisor, one or more individual investors own more than 10% of the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund and the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund as of June 30, 2021. To the extent multiple investors in the Funds rely on the advice of a common investment advisor the Funds may have the risk of a concentrated investor base.

12. COVID-19

The global outbreak of COVID-19 (commonly referred to as “coronavirus”) has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Although vaccines for COVID-19 are becoming more widely available, the ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and the pace of recovery which may vary from market to market, and such uncertainty may in turn adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Funds’ investments, impair the Funds’ ability to satisfy redemption requests, and negatively impact the Funds’ performance.

13. Report of the Penn Capital Funds’ Special Shareholder Meeting (UNAUDITED)

A Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds was held on June 23, 2021, to elect eight nominees to the Board and approve a new investment advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and Penn Capital (the “New Advisory Agreement”), as a result of a transaction involving a change of control of Penn Capital. Pursuant to the terms of an acquisition agreement among the Advisor; 525 Holding Company, Inc. (“525 Holding”), the parent company of the Advisor; and Spouting Rock Asset Management, LLC (“Spouting Rock”), Spouting Rock acquired on April 1, 2021 a minority ownership interest, certain management authority and a short-term option to acquire a controlling interest in 525 Holding (the “Acquisition”).

All shareholders of record at the close of business on April 19, 2021, for each Fund, were entitled to vote. As of April 19, 2021, the Penn Capital Mid Cap Core Fund had 1,172,018.045 shares outstanding, the Penn Capital Floating Rate Income Fund had 3,277,601.450 shares outstanding, the Penn Capital Opportunistic High Income Fund had 1,952,320.517 shares outstanding, the Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund had 4,172,594.359 shares outstanding and the Penn Capital Special Situations Small Cap Equity Fund had 835,697.127 shares outstanding.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of June 30, 2021, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and their financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The statements of changes in net assets for the year ended June 30, 2020 and the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period ended June 30, 2020, except for Penn Capital Short Duration High Income Fund in which the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2020 and the period from July 17, 2017 (commencement of operations) though June 30, 2018 have been audited by other auditors, whose report dated August 28, 2020 expressed unqualified opinions on such statements of changes in net assets and financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We have served as the auditor of one or more of the funds in the Trust since 2021.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2021 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

PENN CAPITAL FUNDS TRUST

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (UNAUDITED)

As required by the 1940 Act, the Board, including all of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and unanimously approved the New Advisory Agreement at a meeting of the Board held on April 19, 2021 (the “April Meeting”). The Trustees reviewed and discussed written materials that were provided in connection with the April Meeting and throughout the year. The Trustees also reviewed and discussed written materials that were provided in connection with the March 18, 2021 Board meeting (the “March Meeting” and, together with the April Meeting, the “Meetings”) in connection with the Board’s approval of an interim investment advisory agreement on behalf of each Fund pursuant to Rule 15a-4 under the 1940 Act that went into effect April 1, 2021.

The Trustees relied upon the advice of Fund counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the New Advisory Agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached by the Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided and were not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Advisory Agreement.

The Independent Trustees had requested and been provided with detailed materials relating to Penn Capital, Sprouting Rock, RBB and the Acquisition in advance of the Meetings. The Independent Trustees met in executive session with Fund counsel during the Meetings to discuss the Acquisition and its anticipated effects on the Funds, including the proposed RBB trust adoption and the shared governance and service provider structure (the “Shared Governance Structure”) on the RBB series trust platform. At the Meetings, representatives of Penn Capital, Spouting Rock and RBB responded to questions from the Board, and discussed, among other things, the strategic rationale for the Acquisition, the Shared Governance Structure and Penn Capital’s and Spouting Rock’s general plans and intentions regarding the Funds. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, evaluated the terms of the New Advisory Agreement, reviewed the information provided by Penn Capital and Spouting Rock in connection with the consideration of approving the New Advisory Agreement on behalf of the Funds, and reviewed the duties and responsibilities of the Board in evaluating and approving the New Advisory Agreement.

In connection with the Board’s review of the New Advisory Agreement, Penn Capital advised the Board about a variety of matters, including the following:

● No material changes are currently contemplated as a result of the Acquisition in the nature, quality, or extent of services currently provided by Penn Capital to the Funds and their shareholders.

● All of the portfolio management personnel who currently manage the Funds are expected to continue to do so under the New Advisory Agreement.

● Penn Capital has agreed that it will, and will cause each of its affiliates to, conduct their business to enable reliance upon the conditions of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, including not imposing any “unfair burden” on the Funds through at least April 1, 2023.

In addition to the information provided by Penn Capital, Spouting Rock and RBB representatives as described above, the Board also considered, among other factors, the following:

● The reputation, financial condition, and resources of Penn Capital and Spouting Rock, and the potential benefits to shareholders of retaining Penn Capital as investment adviser to the Funds, including anticipated continuity of portfolio management.

● Spouting Rock’s experience with past acquisitions.

● The terms and conditions of the New Advisory Agreement, including that each Fund’s contractual advisory fee rates under the New Advisory Agreement will remain the same.

● The expense limits for each Fund will remain the same through April 1, 2023.

● The capabilities, resources, and personnel of Penn Capital necessary to continue to provide the investment management services currently provided to each Fund, and the transition and integration plans for the Funds’ transition to the RBB series trust umbrella under the Shared Governance Structure.

71

PENN CAPITAL FUNDS TRUST

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (UNAUDITED)

● The advisory fees paid by each Fund under the New Advisory Agreement represent reasonable compensation to Penn Capital in light of the services to be provided, the costs to Penn Capital of providing those services, economies of scale, and the fees and other expenses paid by similar funds (based on information compiled by Penn Capital from an unaffiliated third-party proprietary database) and such other matters that the Board considered relevant in the exercise of its reasonable judgment.

● Penn Capital has agreed to pay all expenses of the Funds in connection with this proxy solicitation, and that the Funds will bear no costs in obtaining shareholder approval of the New Advisory Agreement.

In considering whether to approve the New Advisory Agreement on behalf of the Funds, the Board reviewed the materials provided for the Meetings, including: (i) a copy of the form of New Advisory Agreement; (ii) information describing the nature, quality and extent of the services that Penn Capital and Spouting Rock expect to provide to the Funds; and (iii) information concerning the financial condition, business, operations and compliance program of Penn Capital. The Board also considered the information presented at Board Meetings throughout the year. In addition, the Board received a report compiled by Penn Capital from an unaffiliated third-party proprietary database comparing the advisory fees, expenses and performance of each Fund with the fees, expenses and performance of other funds with similar investment objectives and policies (each a “Peer Group”). In making its decision to approve the New Advisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the information furnished was sufficient to form a reasonable business judgment for approval of the New Advisory Agreement.

During its review of this information, the Board focused on and analyzed the factors that the Board deemed relevant, including: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the services provided and expected to be provided to each Fund by Penn Capital; (ii) the personnel and operations of Penn Capital; (iii) the changes being made to the Trust and Funds in connection with the transition to the Shared Governance Structure; (iv) the investment performance of the Funds; (v) the expected profitability to Penn Capital under the New Advisory Agreement; (vi) any “fall-out” benefits to Penn Capital or Spouting Rock (i.e., the ancillary benefits realized due to a relationship with the Trust); and (vii) possible conflicts of interest. The following are among the primary factors taken into account by the Board in approving the New Advisory Agreement.

The nature, extent, and quality of services expected to be provided to each Fund by the Adviser. The Board reviewed the services that Penn Capital expects to continue to provide to each Fund, as well as potential efficiencies and cost savings under the Shared Governance Structure. In connection with the advisory services to be provided to each Fund, the Board noted Penn Capital’s responsibilities as the Funds’ investment adviser, including: implementation of the investment management program of each Fund; management of the day-to-day investment and reinvestment of the assets in each Fund; executing portfolio security trades; and oversight of general portfolio compliance with relevant law.

The Board reviewed Penn Capital’s experience, resources, strengths and performance as an investment adviser. The Board also noted Penn Capital’s procedures to manage potential conflicts of interest, as well as the RBB compliance and operational infrastructure available to the Funds under the Shared Governance Structure. The Board also considered that the same individuals who currently serve as portfolio managers of the Funds are expected to continue to do so under the New Advisory Agreement. The Board also considered the changes to the operations and certain service providers of the Funds as a result of the RBB trust adoption and Shared Governance Structure.

The Board also noted that Penn Capital will continue to have the capabilities, resources and personnel necessary to provide the investment management services currently provided to each Fund. In evaluating Penn Capital, the Board considered the history, background and experience of Spouting Rock as a multi-boutique manager platform. The Board considered Spouting Rock’s long-term business goals with regard to Penn Capital and the Funds.

Based on their consideration and review of the foregoing information, the Board determined that the Funds would likely benefit from the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by Penn Capital, as well as Penn Capitals’s ability to continue to render such services based on its experience, personnel, operations and resources.

Comparison of services provided and fees charged by the Adviser and other investment advisers to similar clients. The Board considered the expense comparison data for the Funds. At the Meetings, the Board compared both the services to be rendered and the fees to be paid pursuant to the New Advisory Agreement to the advisory fees of each Peer Group. The Board also discussed the fee and expense structure of the Funds in light of the services provided.

72

PENN CAPITAL FUNDS TRUST

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (UNAUDITED)

The Board considered the advisory fees and expense ratios of the Funds under the New Advisory Agreement (which are the same as fees charged under each Fund’s existing advisory agreement) compared to the advisory fees and net expense ratios of the investment companies in each Fund’s Peer Group. The Board received information regarding the profitability of Penn Capital in connection with serving as investment adviser to each Fund. The Board also noted Penn Capital’s agreement to waive its advisory fees and assume certain expenses under a new expense limitation agreement (the “New Expense Limitation Agreement”), which will maintain the current expense limits in place for the Funds through April 1, 2023.

After comparing each Fund’s fees with those of other funds in each Fund’s Peer Group and considering the information about fee rates charged to other accounts and clients managed Penn Capital, and in light of the nature, quality and extent of services expected to continue to be provided by Penn Capital, the Board concluded that the level of fees to be paid to Penn Capital with respect to each Fund was fair and reasonable.

The Board also noted that Penn Capital has agreed that it will, and will cause each of its affiliates to, conduct their business to enable reliance upon the conditions of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, including not imposing any “unfair burden” on the Funds through at least April 1, 2023. The Board considered the fact that the fee waivers and expense reimbursements under the New Expense Limitation Agreement would be kept in place through April 1, 2023.

Profitability and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows and whether fee levels would reflect such economies of scale. The Board discussed with the representatives from Penn Capital the expected costs to be incurred by the Adviser in rendering services to the Funds, and the profitability of Penn Capital in connection with its service as investment adviser to each Fund. The Board acknowledged Penn Capital’s contractual obligation to limit each Fund’s expenses under the New Expense Limitation Agreement in order to cap the costs paid by the applicable Funds’ shareholders, and the effect of such obligation on Penn Capital’s expected profitability. The Board considered that the Funds were not yet of a sufficient size to be experiencing economies of scale. The Board received information regarding Penn Capital’s financial condition. The Board concluded that the expected profitability of Penn Capital was reasonable for the Funds in relation to the performance and asset sizes of the Funds.

The Board also considered that Penn Capital and Spouting Rock may experience reputational and other “fall-out” benefits (i.e., benefits to affiliates of Penn Capital and Spouting Rock) based on the success of the Funds, but that such benefits were not likely to result in an “unfair burden” to the Funds.

Investment performance of the Funds. The Board considered the investment performance of the Funds. The Board concluded that Penn Capital’s experience in managing the Funds demonstrated that Penn Capital had the ability to continue to successfully manage the Funds and was adequate to support the approval of the New Advisory Agreement.

Conclusion. No single factor was determinative to the decision of the Board to approve the New Advisory Agreement. Based on the foregoing and such other matters as were deemed relevant, such as the New Expense Limitation Agreement, the Board concluded that the advisory fee rates under the New Advisory Agreement and the net expense ratios under the New Expense Limitation Agreement were reasonable in relation to the services expected to be provided by Penn Capital to each Fund, as well as the expected costs incurred and benefits gained by Penn Capital in providing such services. The Board also found the investment advisory fees under the New Advisory Agreement to be reasonable in comparison to the fees charged by each respective Peer Group. The Board concluded that the Acquisition would not result in an increase in advisory fee rates or net expense ratios, and was not expected to result in a decrease in the quality or quantity of services provided to the Funds, or impose an “unfair burden” on the Funds. The Board further concluded that, after the Acquisition, Penn Capital will continue to have the capabilities, resources, and personnel necessary to provide the investment management services currently provided to each Fund. As a result, the Board concluded that the approval of the New Advisory Agreement between Penn Capital and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, is in the best interests of each Fund.
