EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A constitutes Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the GraniteShares Gold Trust’s (the “Trust”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended June 30, 2018, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 31, 2018 (the “Original Filing”). This Amendment is being filed solely to amend information inadvertently included within Item 9A of the Original Filing. For the period ended June 30, 2018, the Trust was not required to include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting.

No other change is made to the Original Filing. This Amendment does not purport to provide an update or a discussion of any other developments subsequent to the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Trust maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Sponsor, and to the audit committee, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Sponsor, the Sponsor conducted an evaluation of the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Sponsor concluded that, as of June 30, 2018, the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the Trust’s registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for newly public companies.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Trust’s or Sponsor’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Trust’s recently completed fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s or Sponsor’s internal control over financial reporting.
