Portfolio Review (Unaudited)
May 31, 2019

 

 

The chart above assumes an initial gross investment of $10,000 made on January 31, 2012. The Fund’s performance figures are for the periods ended May 31, 2019. The Performance data quoted is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemptions 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. Performance figures for periods greater than one year are annualized.

1. ORGANIZATION

 

The Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund, Horizon Active Income Fund, Horizon Active Dividend Fund and Horizon Defined Risk Fund (each a “Fund” and together the “Funds”) are each a series of shares of beneficial interest of Horizon Funds (the “Trust”), a Delaware business trust organized on May 21, 2015. The Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund, Horizon Active Income Fund, and Horizon Defined Risk Fund are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as diversified, open-end management investment companies. The Horizon Active Dividend Fund is registered under the 1940 Act as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund is capital appreciation. The Fund presently offers Investor Class shares, Advisor Class shares and Institutional Class shares, which commenced operations on January 31, 2012, September 4, 2015 and September 9, 2016, respectively. The investment objective of the Horizon Active Risk® Assist Fund is to capture the majority of the returns associated with equity market investments, while mitigating downside risk through use of a risk overlay strategy. The Fund presently offers Investor Class shares, Advisor Class shares and Institutional Class shares, which commenced operations on August 28, 2014, September 4, 2015 and September 9, 2016, respectively. The investment objective of the Horizon Active Income Fund is income. The Fund presently offers Investor Class shares, Advisor Class shares and Institutional Class shares, which commenced operations on September 30, 2013, February 8, 2016 and September 9, 2016, respectively. The investment objective of the Horizon Active Dividend Fund is capital appreciation and current income. The Fund presently offers Investor Class shares and Advisor Class shares, which commenced operations on December 28, 2016 and June 20, 2017, respectively. The investment objective of the Horizon Defined Risk Fund is capital appreciation and capital preservation. The Fund presently offers Investor Class shares and Advisor Class shares, which commenced operations on December 28, 2017 and February 2, 2018, respectively.

 

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

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

In determining a Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share, equity securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks, and exchange traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at current market value using the last reported sales price. NASDAQ traded securities are valued using the NASDAQ official closing price (“NOCP”). If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the day of valuation, or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the primary exchange. When market quotations received are from an active market, the securities will be classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. If market quotations are not readily available, then securities are valued at fair value as determined by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (“the Board”) or its delegate. Short-term debt instruments with a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, intermediate and long-term bonds, convertible bonds, and other debt securities are generally valued on the basis of dealer supplied quotations or by a pricing system selected by the Adviser and approved by the Board. Where such prices are not available, valuations will be obtained from brokers who are market makers for such securities. However, in circumstances where the Adviser deems it appropriate to do

Horizon Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

so, the mean of the bid and asked prices for over-the-counter securities or the last available sale price for exchange-traded debt securities may be used. Where no last sale price for exchange traded debt securities is available, the mean of the bid and asked prices may be used. Short-term debt securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are amortized to maturity, provided such valuations represent fair value. Investments in registered open-end investment companies (including money market funds), other than exchange-traded funds, are valued at their reported NAVs. Purchased and written options are valued primarily at the mean of the bid and the ask.

 

Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which valuation cannot be provided, as described above, are valued as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures approved by the Board.

 

The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of all of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

 

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

 

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

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following tables summarize the inputs used as of May 31, 2019, for the Funds’ investments measured at value:

Exchange Traded Funds – The Funds may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are a type of registered investment company that is typically purchased and redeemed at net asset value (“NAV”) in large blocks of shares called “Creation Units”, and bought and sold in secondary markets on a securities exchange, where its shares trade like common stock. An index-based ETF represents a fixed portfolio of securities designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index. Alternatively, ETFs may be actively managed in accordance with a particular investment strategy. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities they hold, although the lack of liquidity on an ETF could result in it being more volatile.

 

Option Transactions – Options are derivative financial instruments that give the buyer, in exchange for a premium payment, the right, but not the obligation, to either purchase from (call option) or sell to (put option) the writer a specified underlying instrument at a specified price on or before a specified date. The Funds enter into option contracts to meet the requirements of their trading activities. The risk in writing a call option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds

 

75

 

 

Horizon Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
May 31, 2019

 

may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Funds also have the additional risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.

 

When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is included in the statement of assets and liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current fair value of the option. If an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or if the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a written call or put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized for the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the premium originally received. As the writer of an option, the Fund has no control over whether the option will be exercised and, as a result, retains the market risk of an unfavorable change in price of the security underlying the written option.

 

A Fund may purchase put and call options. The Funds engage in options transactions on individual securities, ETFs, or indices to hedge against market declines or generate returns from falling asset prices. If such a decline occurs, the put options will permit the Fund to sell the securities underlying such options at the exercise price, or to close out the options at a profit. The premium paid for a put or call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by the Fund upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises or declines sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to the Fund. In addition, in the event that the price of the security in connection with which an option was purchased moves in a direction favorable to the Fund, the benefits realized by the Fund as a result of such a favorable movement will be reduced by the amount of the premium paid for the option and related transaction costs. Written and purchased options are non-income producing securities. With purchased options, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since these options are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded options, guarantees against a possible default.

The amount is limited to the derivative liability balance and, accordingly, does not include excess collateral pledged.

 

Due to the absence of a master netting agreement relating to the Funds’ participation in securities lending, no additional disclosures have been made on behalf of the Funds. Please reference Note 5 for collateral related to securities on loan.

 

Security Transactions and Investment Income – Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Cost is determined and gains and losses are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income and expense is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Long-term capital gain distributions from investment companies are recorded separately from dividend income. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities are accreted and amortized over the life of the respective securities.

 

Expenses – Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the Funds in the Trust. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

Federal Income Taxes – It is each Fund’s policy to comply with all sections of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and therefore, no provision for federal income tax has been made. Each Fund is treated as a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes.

 

The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years or expected to be taken in the Funds’ 2018 tax returns. The Funds identified their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal, North Carolina State and Delaware State; however, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.

 

Distributions to Shareholders – Distributions from investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least annually for the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist Fund and the Horizon Defined Risk Fund and quarterly for the Horizon Active Income Fund and Horizon Active Dividend Fund and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds will declare and pay net realized capital gains, if any, annually. The character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

Shareholder Services Plan – The Board has adopted a shareholder serving plan (the “Plan”) for Investor Class Shares of the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist Fund, and the Horizon Active Income Fund. The Plan allows the Funds to use part of their assets for shareholder servicing expenses. The Shareholder Servicing Expenses for the Investor Class shares of the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund, and Horizon Active Income Fund is 0.10% of average daily net assets. For these services, the Funds pay a fee up to 0.10% of average net assets attributable to Investor Class shares of the Funds on an annualized basis. Payments under the Plan are made for the provision of support services to shareholders, including administrative or other shareholder support services such as responding to customer inquiries or assisting the Funds in establishing or maintaining shareholder accounts and records. The entities providing shareholder services may provide such services directly, or may arrange for such services to be provided by another entity that has a servicing relationship with one or more shareholders. However, payments under the Plan are an operating expense of each Fund that is not subject to the expense limitation provided by the Adviser. Payments under the Plan may vary and are determined by the respective Fund in its sole discretion, in amounts up to 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class shares of the Fund on an annualized basis.

 

Rule 12b-1 – The Trust, with respect to all Funds, has adopted a Distribution Plan for Advisor Class shares of each Fund, and also for Investor Class shares of the Horizon Active Dividend Fund and the Horizon Defined Risk Fund, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “12b-1 Plan”). However, payments under the 12b-1 Plan are an operating expense of each Fund that is not subject to the expense limitation provided by the Adviser. The 12b-1 Plan provides for the payment of a distribution fee to Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) at an annualized rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the applicable classes. Effective as of July 1, 2017, the Board of Trustees authorized a temporary voluntary waiver of a portion of the distribution fee for Investor Class shares of the Active Dividend Fund and Defined Risk Fund, reducing it to 0.10% of the average net assets attributable to Investor Class shares of these Funds, and this waiver is currently in place through March 31, 2020. During the six months ended May 31, 2019 the distribution fees accrued for the Investor Class shares of both the Horizon Active Dividend Fund and the Horizon Defined Risk Fund and Advisor Class shares of all Funds were 0.10% and 0.25% of average daily net assets, respectively. During the six months ended May 31, 2019, the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund, Horizon Active Income Fund, Horizon Active Dividend Fund, and the Horizon Defined Risk Fund Advisor Class shares incurred $16,462, $954, $2,907, $20,523, and $15,596 respectively, pursuant to the plan. During the six months ended May 31, 2019, the Horizon Active Dividend Fund and the Horizon Defined Risk Fund Investor Class shares incurred $28,122 and $2,502 respectively, pursuant to the plan. Investor Class shares of the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist Fund and Horizon Active Income Fund and Institutional Class shares of Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund and Horizon Active Income Fund do not pay any 12b-1 distribution fees.

 

Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

 

3. ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with each Fund (the “Advisory Agreements”), investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by Horizon Investments, LLC (the “Adviser”). Under the terms of the Advisory Agreements, the Adviser receives monthly fees calculated at an annual rate of 0.99% of the average daily net assets of the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, 0.99% of the average daily net assets of the Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund, 0.77% of the average daily net assets of the Horizon Active Income Fund, 0.75% of the average daily net assets

of the Horizon Active Dividend Fund and 0.80% of the average daily net assets of the Horizon Defined Risk Fund. Effective January 23, 2018, the Advisory fee rate decreased from 1.10% to 0.99% of the average daily net assets of the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund and the Horizon Active Risk Assist Fund.

 

Pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement (the “Waiver Agreement”), the Advisor has agreed, until March 31, 2020, for each Fund, to waive a portion of the Fund’s advisory fee and has agreed to reimburse the Fund for other expenses to the extent that the aggregate expenses of every character, including but not limited to investment advisory fees of the Adviser (but excluding front-end or contingent sales loads; brokerage fees and commissions; acquired fund fees and expenses; borrowing costs, such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short; payments by the Fund, if any, under the Trust’s Rule 12b-1 Distribution Plan; payments by the Fund, if any, under the Trust’s Shareholder Services Plan; expenses paid with securities lending expense offset credits; taxes; and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation) incurred by a class of shares of the Fund in any fiscal year do not exceed the percentage of average daily net assets in the below table.

If the Adviser waives any fee or reimburses any expense pursuant to the Waiver Agreement, and a Fund’s Operating Expenses are subsequently less than its respective limit described in the Waiver Agreement, the Adviser shall be entitled to reimbursement by that Fund. If the Funds’ Operating Expenses subsequently exceed the figures in the above table, the reimbursements shall be suspended. Any fees waived on expenses reimbursed are subject to possible recoupment by the Adviser within 36 months after such fees have been waived on expenses reimbursed; provided, however, that such expenses may only be reimbursed to the extent they were waived or paid after the date of the Waiver Agreement (or any similar agreement). No amounts will be paid to the Adviser in any fiscal quarter unless the Board determines that reimbursement is in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders.

In every instance, the cost of the fees are to be allocated among the participating Funds in accordance with a formula that takes into account the overall asset size of each affected Fund.

Officers of the Trust and Trustees who are interested persons of the Trust do not receive any direct compensation from the Trust.

5. SECURITIES LENDING

 

The Funds may lend domestic securities in their portfolios to approved brokers, dealers and financial institutions (but not individuals) under terms of participation in a securities lending program effective December 20, 2017, which is administered by U.S. Bank N.A. (the “Custodian”). The Funds are entitled to utilize Securities Lending Income to offset costs and other charges incurred by the Funds with the Custodian or its affiliates or, as directed in writing by the Funds, other service providers. In the six months ended May 31, 2019, these expenses included Administrative & Accounting Service Fees, Transfer Agent Fees, and Custodian Fees. As the Securities Lending Expense offset for the Horizon Active Income Fund exceeded charges incurred with the Custodian and its affiliates during the year, these expenses also included Legal Fees, Registration Fees, Printing and Postage Expenses, and Trustees’ Fees and

Expenses, as allowed under the Amendment. The securities lending agreement requires that loans are collateralized in an amount equal to at least 102% at the outset of the loan and at least 100%, at all times thereafter, of the value of any loaned securities. The Funds receive compensation in the form of fees and earn interest on the cash collateral. The amount of fees depends on a number of factors including the type of security and length of the loan. Securities lending income is disclosed on the Statements of Operations as securities lending income (for the period before the Board approved the Amendment) and as a securities lending expense offset thereafter. The Funds continue to receive interest payments or dividends on the securities loaned during the borrowing year. Gain or loss on the fair value of securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be for the account of the Funds. The Funds have the right under the terms of the securities lending agreement to recall the securities from the borrower on demand. During the six months ended May 31, 2019, Funds had loaned securities and received cash collateral for the loans. The cash collateral is invested by the Custodian in accordance with approved investment guidelines. Those guidelines allow the cash collateral to be invested in readily marketable, high quality, short-term obligations issued or guaranteed by the United States Government; however, such investments are subject to risk of payment delays, declines in the value of collateral provided, default on the part of the issuer or counterparty, or otherwise may not generate sufficient interest to support the costs associated with securities lending. The Funds could also experience delays in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return the borrowed securities, although the Funds are indemnified from this risk by contract with the securities lending agent.

 

As of the six months ended May 31, 2019, the value of the securities on loan and payable for collateral due to broker were as follows:

These amounts were not included in the offsetting disclosures in Note 2 (Offsetting of Financial Assets and Derivative Liabilities).

 

6. LINE OF CREDIT ARRANGEMENT

 

Effective March 1, 2019, the Funds are party to an unsecured line of credit arrangement with the Custodian. The Loan Agreement has an expiration date of February 29, 2020, under which borrowing is limited to the lesser of 15% of the market value of a Fund, 33.33% of the market value of specific marketable securities of a Fund acceptable to the Custodian, or $50,000,000 for all the Funds subject to the line of credit. The Funds may utilize the line of credit for temporary or emergency purposes, primarily for financing redemption payments. The applicable Funds have authorized the Custodian to charge any of the Funds subject to the line of credit for any missed payments by the Funds. The Funds will be charged the prime rate, which was 5.50% as of May 31, 2019, if they borrow. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund, Horizon Active Risk Assist® Fund and Horizon Active Income had average borrowings of $9,444,667, $1,212,333, and $843,000 and the weighted average interest rate on the line of credit borrowings was 5.42%, 5.50%, and 5.50%, respectively. Between December 7, 2019 and December 9, 2019, the Horizon Active Asset Allocation Fund had borrowings of $24,204,000, on April 9, 2019 the Horizon Active Risk Assist Fund had borrowings of $1,486,000, and on January 2, 2019 the Horizon Active Income Fund had borrowings of $1,183,000, which represent the largest borrowing

amounts, respectively, during the six months ended May 31, 2019. For the Horizon Active Dividend Fund and Horizon Defined Risk Fund, there were no borrowings on the line of credit during the six months ended May 31, 2019. None of the Funds had outstanding borrowings on the line of credit as of May 31, 2019.

Additionally, GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. These reclassifications were due to the use of equalization. Each Fund may use earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction.

8. BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

 

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of that fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of May 31, 2019, the Funds had omnibus shareholder accounts (comprised of a group of individual shareholders), which amounted to more than 25% of the total shares outstanding of the respective Fund. There were no individual shareholders of record who owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of beneficial interest of a Fund or Class of shares of a Fund. Shareholders with a controlling interest could affect the outcome of proxy voting or direction of management of a Fund.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
May 31, 2019

 

As a shareholder of the Funds you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, sales charges, and other Fund operating expenses. 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. Please note, the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs.

 

This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the period of time as indicated in the table below.

 

Actual Expenses: The column labeled “Actual” of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

 

Hypothetical Examples for Comparison Purposes: The column labeled “Hypothetical” of the table below provides 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 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 which may be applicable to your account. Therefore, the second line of the table is 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.

May 31, 2019

 

At an in-person meeting held on July 24, 2018, at which all of the Trustees were present, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including the Trustees who are not “interested persons,” as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), voting separately, reviewed and approved the continuance of each Investment Advisory Agreement (each, an “Advisory Agreement”, and together the “Advisory Agreements”) between the Trust and the Adviser for each of the Horizon Active Allocation Fund, the Horizon Active Risk Assist Fund, the Horizon Active Income Fund the Horizon Active Dividend Fund and the Horizon Defined Risk Fund (each a “Fund” and together the “Funds”). In the course of their deliberations, the Board was advised by independent legal counsel. The Board received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Adviser in response to requests of the Board and counsel.

 

In considering the approval of the Advisory Agreements and reaching their conclusions with respect thereto, the Board reviewed a memorandum, provided by independent legal counsel, which summarized the Board’s fiduciary duties and responsibilities in reviewing and approving the Advisory Agreements and other matters to be considered by the Board at the Meeting and the types of information that should be reviewed by them and their responsibilities in making an informed decision regarding the approval of the Advisory Agreements. The Board also reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to each Fund; (ii) the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Funds; (iii) the investment performance of each Funds and the Adviser, (iv) the extent to which economies of scale will be realized as each Fund grows; and (iv) whether the fee levels reflect these economies of scale to the benefit of each Fund’s shareholders, including the following:

 

 

Nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered information regarding the services to be provided to the Funds, the experience, qualifications and key personnel of the Adviser, the Adviser’s sales force, the Adviser’s assets under management and relationships with other registered investment advisers for distribution purposes. The Board reviewed the Adviser’s financial statements and considered the Adviser’s financial condition.

 

 

The Investment Performance of the Funds and the Adviser. In this regard, the Board considered each Fund’s past performance, including comparisons to peer funds. The Board also considered each Fund’s portfolio turnover, use of soft dollars and best execution policies. The Board also considered the performance of other accounts managed by the Adviser.

 

 

Costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the management fees proposed to be charged to each Fund, and each Fund’s total expense ratios, each as compared to each Fund’s peer group, and took into account the differences in managing the Funds compared to other products that the Adviser offers, as well as the fees charged by Horizon to its separately managed accounts. The Board considered the terms and conditions of each Advisory Agreement, including the management fee and the services to be provided by the Adviser thereunder. The Board also considered the indirect benefits that the Adviser receives through soft dollars, cross sales of other products the Adviser sells and third-party marketing materials.

 

 

The extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the Fund grows and whether the fee levels reflect these economies of scale to the benefit of shareholders. In this regard, the Board considered that the Adviser was still waiving a portion of its advisory fees under the Expense Limitation Agreements with each Fund and considered how these waivers supported the Funds, noting that the Adviser expected to receive its full fees from all of the Funds as the Funds continue to grow. The Board considered the terms of the expense limitation agreement for each Fund, and the fact that the Adviser had agreed to continue the expense limitation agreements through at least December 31, 2019, and noted that the expense waivers and reimbursements were

subject to recoupment during a three-year look-back window. The Board also considered that the Adviser agreed to consider implementing breakpoints in its management fee after such time as the Fund’s grow to a size that the Adviser is receiving its full fee.

 

After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors, the Board unanimously approved the continuance and renewal of each Advisory Agreement.

 

At an in-person meeting held on April 23, 2019, at which all of the Trustees were present, the Board, including Independent Trustees, voting separately, reviewed and approved the initial Investment Advisory Agreements (the “New Advisory Agreements”) with the Adviser for the Horizon Multi-Asset Income Fund, Horizon U.S. Risk Assist Fund, and the Horizon Sustainable Risk Assist Fund (each a “New Fund” and together the “New Funds”). In the course of their deliberations, the Board was advised by legal counsel. The Board received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Adviser in response to requests of the Board and counsel.

 

In considering the approval of the New Advisory Agreements and reaching their conclusions with respect thereto, the Board reviewed a memorandum, provided by Fund counsel, which summarized the Board’s fiduciary duties and responsibilities in reviewing and approving the New Advisory Agreements and other matters to be considered by the Board at the Meeting and the types of information that should be reviewed by them and their responsibilities in making an informed decision regarding the approval of the New Advisory Agreements. The Board also reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the New Fund; (ii) the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the New Fund; (iii) the extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the New Fund grows; and (iv) whether the fee levels reflect these economies of scale to the benefit of shareholders, including the following:

 

 

Nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Fund. The Board considered information regarding the services to be provided to the New Funds, the experience, qualifications and key personnel of the Adviser, the Adviser’s sales force, the Adviser’s assets under management and relationships with other registered investment advisers for distribution purposes. The Board reviewed the Adviser’s financial statements and considered the Adviser’s financial condition. The Board also considered the capabilities of Horizon to operate each of the New Funds, Horizon’s commitment to the New Funds, Horizon’s staffing, trading and compliance systems, and its capabilities with respect to service provider oversight. The Board also considered the performance of other accounts managed by the Adviser.

 

 

Costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund. The Board considered the management fees proposed to be charged to each New Fund, and each New Fund’s total expense ratios, each as compared to each New Fund’s peer group, and took into account the differences in managing the New Funds compared to other products that the Adviser offers, as well as the fees charged by Horizon to its separately managed accounts. The Board considered the terms and conditions of the New Advisory Agreements, including the management fee and the services to be provided by the Adviser thereunder. The Board also considered the indirect benefits that the Adviser receives through soft dollars, cross sales of other products the Adviser sells and third-party marketing materials. The Board also considered the regulatory regime and additional oversight under which the New Funds’ will operate, as well as operational differences between the New Funds and Horizon’s other clients, and considered that Horizon would effect trading and execution for the New Funds, unlike model portfolio clients, and that such other accounts do not trade options, have little opportunity for price improvement, and do not get benefit of trustee oversight.

The extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the Fund grows and whether the fee levels reflect these economies of scale to the benefit of shareholders. The Board considered the details of the proposed expense limitation agreement for each New Fund, the fact that the Adviser had agreed to continue the expense limitation agreements through at least March 31, 2022, and noted that the expense waivers and reimbursements were subject to recoupment during a 36 month look-back window. The Board also considered that the Adviser agreed to consider implementing breakpoints in its management fee after such time as the New Fund’s grow to a size that the Adviser is receiving its full fee.

 

After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors, the Board unanimously concluded that the terms of each proposed New Advisory Agreement between each of the New Funds and the Adviser was fair and reasonable and approved the New Advisory Agreements.
