M3Sixty Funds Trust

Notes to the Schedules of Investments

September 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Cognios Large Cap Value Fund (the “Value Fund”), the Cognios Market Neutral Large Cap Fund (the “Market Neutral Fund”) and the F/m Investments Large Cap Focused Fund (the “Focused Fund”) (formerly, the Cognios Large Cap Growth Fund) and, (collectively, the “Funds”) in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Funds are investment companies that follow the accounting and reporting guidance of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies. Each Fund is a series of the M3Sixty Funds Trust.

 

Processes and Structure

 

The Funds’ Board of Trustees has adopted guidelines for valuing securities and other derivative instruments including in circumstances in which market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated authority to the Adviser to apply those guidelines in determining fair value prices, subject to review by the Board of Trustees.

 

Hierarchy of Fair Value Inputs

 

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

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or 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 on 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 that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that 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.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows.

 

Equity securities (common stock) – Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of the certain indexes of securities based on a statistical analysis of the historical relationship and that are categorized in Level 2. Preferred stock and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also categorized in Level 2.

 

Money market funds – Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1.00 per share and are categorized as Level 1.

Notes to the Schedules of Investments

The following table summarizes the inputs used to value the Funds’ assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2020:

 

Categories (a)  Level 1  Level 2  Level 3  Total
Value Fund:            
Common Stock (b)  $1,569,851    —      —     $1,569,851 
Total Investments in Securities  $1,569,851    —      —     $1,569,851 

Market Neutral Fund:

Assets:

                    
Common Stock (b)  $36,073,271    —      —     $36,073,271 
Short-Term Investments   13,593    —      —      13,593 
Total Investments in Securities  $36,086,864    —      —     $36,086,864 
Liabilities:                    
Common Stock (b)  $23,108,086    —      —     $23,108,086 
Total Securities Sold Short (b)  $23,108,086    —      —     $23,108,086 
Focused Fund:                    
Common Stock (b)  $56,847,259    —      —     $56,847,259 
Short-Term Investments   4,249,905              4,249,905 
Total Investments in Securities  $61,097,164    —      —     $61,097,164 

 

 

(a)       As of and during the three month period ended September 30, 2020, the Funds held no securities that were considered to be “Level 3” securities (those valued using significant unobservable inputs). Therefore, a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value is not applicable.

 

(b)       All common stock held in the Funds are Level 1 securities. For a detailed break-out of common stock by industry, please refer to the Schedules of Investments.

 

The Funds recognize transfers, if any, between fair value hierarchy levels at the reporting period end. There were no transfers between levels during the three month period ended September 30, 2020.

 

Non-Diversified Funds

 

The Focused Fund is a non-diversified Fund. Non-diversified Funds may or may not have a diversified portfolio of investments at any given time, and may have large amounts of assets invested in a very small number of companies, industries or securities. Such lack of diversification substantially increases market risks and the risk of loss associated with an investment in the Focused Fund, because the value of each security will have a greater impact on the Focused Fund’s performance and the value of each shareholder’s investment. When the value of a security in a non-diversified fund falls, it may have a greater impact on the Focused Fund than it would have in a diversified fund.

 

Short Sales

 

The Market Neutral Fund may make short sales of securities consistent with its strategies. A short sale is a transaction in which the Fund sells a security it does not own in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline.

 

When the Market Neutral Fund makes a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver a security equal in value to the security sold short to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale as collateral for its obligation to deliver the security upon conclusion of the sale. The Market Neutral Fund may have to pay a fee to borrow particular securities and is often obligated to pay over any accrued interest and dividends on such borrowed securities.

 

If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time that the Market Neutral Fund replaces the borrowed security, the Market Neutral Fund will incur a loss; conversely, if the price declines, the Market Neutral Fund will realize a capital gain. Any gain will be decreased, and any loss increased, by the transaction costs described above. The successful use of short selling may be adversely affected by imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the security sold short and the securities being hedged.

 

 

 

 

M3Sixty Funds Trust

Notes to the Schedules of Investments

September 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

To the extent that the Market Neutral Fund engages in short sales, it will provide collateral to the broker-dealer and (except in the case of short sales “against the box”) will maintain additional asset coverage in the form of segregated or “earmarked” assets that the Adviser determines to be liquid in accordance with procedures established by the Board and that is equal to the current market value of the securities sold short until the Market Neutral Fund replaces the borrowed security. A short sale is “against the box” to the extent that the Market Neutral Fund contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain at no added cost, securities identical to those sold short. The Market Neutral Fund may engage in short selling to the extent permitted by the federal securities laws and rules and interpretations thereunder. To the extent the Market Neutral Fund engages in short selling in foreign (non-U.S.) jurisdictions, the Market Neutral Fund will do so to the extent permitted by the laws and regulations of such jurisdiction.

 

Tax Matters

 

For U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the cost of securities owned, gross appreciation, gross depreciation, and net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of investments at September 30, 2020 were as follows:

 

 

Fund

 

 

Tax Cost

  Gross Unrealized Appreciation  Gross Unrealized Depreciation 

Net Unrealized

Appreciation (Depreciation)

 Value Fund   $1,621,916   $108,437   $(160,502)  $(52,065)
 Market Neutral Fund    13,635,209    4,858,790    (5,515,221)   (656,431)
 Focused Fund    45,395,679    16,086,460    (384,975)   15,701,485 

 

The difference between book basis unrealized appreciation and tax-basis unrealized appreciation for the Funds is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the tax treatment of the cost of securities received as in-kind subscriptions.
