NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. Organization:

The Frost Family of Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end investment management company established under Delaware law as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated December 11, 2018. The Frost Family of Funds include the Frost Growth Equity Fund (the “Growth Equity Fund”), Frost Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”), Frost Credit Fund (the “Credit Fund”), Frost Low Duration Bond Fund (the “Low Duration Bond Fund”), and Frost Municipal Bond Fund (the “Municipal Bond Fund”) (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund is classified as a “diversified” investment company under the 1940 Act. The Growth Equity Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation. The Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund seek to maximize total return, consisting of income and capital appreciation, consistent with the preservation of principal. The Municipal Bond Fund seeks to provide a consistent level of current income exempt from federal income tax with a secondary emphasis on maximizing total return through capital appreciation. The Funds may change their investment objective without shareholder approval. The assets of each Fund of the Trust are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. Certain of the Funds currently offer Institutional Class Shares, Investor Class Shares and A Class Shares.

Each Fund is a successor to a corresponding predecessor mutual fund of the same name that was a series of The Advisors’ Inner Circle Fund II (each, a “Predecessor Fund” and, collectively, the “Predecessor Funds”). Each Predecessor Fund was managed by Frost Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser” or “Frost”) using substantially the same investment objectives, strategies, policies and restrictions as those used by its corresponding Fund. Each Predecessor Fund was reorganized into its corresponding Fund on June 24, 2019 in connection with each Fund’s commencement of operations (each, a “Reorganization”). Each Predecessor Fund is treated as the survivor of the relevant Reorganization for accounting and performance reporting purposes. Accordingly, all performance and other information shown for the Funds for periods prior to June 24, 2019 is that of the Predecessor Funds.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

The following are significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in preparation of the financial statements of the Funds. The Funds are investment companies that apply the accounting and reporting guidance issued in Topic 946 by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

Security Valuation — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on an exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time if such exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. Debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents, if avail- able. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Such methodologies generally consider such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific securities in arriving at valuations. On the first day a new debt security purchase is recorded, if a price is not avail- able on the automated pricing feeds from the primary and secondary pricing vendors nor is it available from an independent broker, the security may be valued at its purchase price. Each day thereafter, the debt security will be valued according to the Trust’s fair value procedures until an independent source can be secured. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value provided that it is determined the amortized cost continues to approximate fair value. Should existing credit, liquidity or interest rate conditions in the relevant markets and issuer specific circumstances suggest that amortized cost does not approximate fair value, then the amortized cost method may not be used. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates.

Exchange-traded registered investment companies are valued at the closing price from the primary exchange.

Open-end investment companies held in the Funds’ portfolios are valued at the published net asset value.

Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are valued in accordance with fair value procedures established by the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Funds’ fair value procedures are implemented through a fair value pricing committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using fair value procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. When a security is valued in accordance with the fair value procedures, the Committee will determine its value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

For securities that principally trade on a foreign market or exchange, a significant gap in time can exist between the time of a particular security’s last trade and the time at which a Fund calculates its net asset value. The closing prices of such securities may no longer reflect their market value at the time a Fund calculates net asset value if an event that could materially affect the value of those securities (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security’s last close and the time that a Fund calculates net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. If the Adviser becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which a Fund calculates net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. In addition, SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the “Administrator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, monitors price movements among certain selected indices, securities and/or baskets of securities that may be an indicator that the closing prices received earlier from foreign exchanges or markets may not reflect market value at the time a Fund calculates net asset value. If price movements in a monitored index or security exceed levels established by the Administrator, the Administrator notifies the Adviser if a Fund is holding a relevant security that such limits have been exceeded. In such event, the Adviser makes the determination whether a Committee meeting should be called based on the information provided.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds dis- close fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

   

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date;

 

   

Level 2 — Quoted prices which are not active, or inputs that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

 

   

Level 3 — Prices, inputs or exotic modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.

For the period ended January 31, 2021, there have been no changes to the Funds’ fair value methodologies.

Federal Income Taxes — It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Sub- chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.

The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more-likely-than-not” (i.e., greater than 50-percent) 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. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review

 

40


FROST FAMILY OF FUNDS    F R O S T   F U N D S   |   J A N U A R Y   3 1,   2 0 2 1

 

 

 

 

  

 

and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 3 tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

As of and during the period ended January 31, 2021, the Funds did not have liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period ended January 31, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

The Funds may also be subject to taxes imposed by governments of countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue and apply such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned. In some cases, the Funds may be entitled to reclaim all or a portion of such taxes, and such reclaim amounts, if any, are reflected as an asset on the Funds’ books. In many cases, however, the Funds may not receive such amounts for an extended period of time, depending on the country of investment. Upon the Fund’s receipt of reclaims, the reclaims are recorded as a reduction to foreign taxes withheld.

Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are based on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discount. Realized gains (losses) on paydowns of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are recorded as an adjustment to interest income. Litigation income received during the year is recorded as realized gains by the Fund when such information becomes known. Gains of this type are infrequent to the Fund and are not expected to reoccur on a consistent basis.

Repurchase Agreements — In connection with transactions involving repurchase agreements, a third party custodian bank takes possession of the underlying securities (“collateral”), the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. Such collateral will be cash, debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, securities that at the time the repurchase agreement is entered into are rated in the highest category by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”) or unrated category by an NRSRO, as determined by the Adviser. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Funds have the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.

Futures Contracts — To the extent consistent with its investment objective and strategies, the Fund may use futures contracts for tactical hedging purposes as well as to enhance the Fund’s returns. The Fund’s investments in futures contracts are designed to enable the Fund to more closely approximate the performance of its benchmark indices. Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. The contracts are marked-to-market daily and the resulting changes in value are accounted for as unrealized gains and losses. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When contracts are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the contract. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there will be an imperfect price correlation between the futures and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a position prior to its maturity date. Finally, futures contracts involve the risk that a Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction.

For the period ended January 31, 2021, the Funds did not hold any Futures Contracts.

Expenses — Expenses of the Trust that can be directly attributed to a particular fund are borne by that fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a fund are apportioned among the funds of the Trust based on the number of funds and/or relative net assets.

Classes — Class specific expenses are borne by the specific class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), and non-class specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — The Growth Equity Fund distributes its net investment income and makes distributions of its net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. The Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, and Municipal Bond Fund each distribute their net investment income monthly, as available, and make distributions of their net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually.

Interfund Lending — The SEC has granted an exemption that permits the Funds to participate in an interfund lending program (the “Interfund Lending Program”) whereby the Funds may lend money to, and borrow money from, each other for

 

41


FROST FAMILY OF FUNDS    F R O S T   F U N D S   |   J A N U A R Y   3 1,   2 0 2 1

 

 

 

 

  

 

temporary or emergency purposes, subject to certain terms and conditions. Participation in the Interfund Lending Program is voluntary for both borrowing and lending Funds.

3. Transactions with Affiliates:

Certain officers and a trustee of the Trust are also employees of the Administrator, and/or SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the “Distributor”). Such officers and the trustee are paid no fees by the Trust for serving as officers and trustee of the Trust. A portion of the services provided by the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) and his staff, whom are the employees of the Administrator, are paid for by the Trust as incurred. The services include regulatory oversight of the Trust’s advisers and service providers as required by SEC regulations. The CCO’s services have been approved by and are reviewed by the Board.

4. Administration, Distribution, Shareholder Servicing, Transfer Agent and Custodian Agreements:

The Funds and the Administrator are parties to an Administration Agreement under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Fund. For these services, the Administrator is paid an asset-based fee, which will vary depending on the number of share classes and the average daily net assets of the Funds. For the period ended January 31, 2021, the Funds were charged as follows for these services: $151,528 in the Growth Equity Fund, $1,160,186 in the Total Return Bond Fund, $72,487 in the Credit Fund, $159,738 in the Low Duration Bond Fund, and $20,486 in the Municipal Bond Fund.

The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) for the Investor Class Shares and A Class Shares. Under the Plan, the Distributor, or third parties that enter into agreements with the Distributor, may receive up to 0.25% of each Fund’s average net assets attributable to the Investor Class Shares and A Class Shares as compensation for distribution services.

The Funds have adopted a shareholder servicing plan that provides that the Funds may pay financial intermediaries for share- holder services in an annual amount not to exceed 0.15% based on the average daily net assets of the Funds’ A Class Shares. The services for which financial intermediaries are compensated may include record-keeping, transaction processing for share- holders’ accounts and other shareholder services.

DST Systems, Inc. serves as the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust. The Funds may earn cash management credits which can be used to offset transfer agent expenses. These credit amounts are listed as “Fees Paid Indirectly” on the Statements of Operations.

Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. serves as Custodian for the Funds. The Custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies of the Funds or which securities are to be purchased or sold by the Funds.

5. Investment Advisory Agreement:

The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to the Funds. The Adviser is a wholly owned non-banking subsidiary of Cullen/ Frost Bankers, Inc. (“Frost Bank”). For its services, the Adviser is entitled to a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at the following annual rates based on the average daily net assets of each Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or reimburse expenses for certain Funds to the extent necessary to keep total annual Fund operating expenses from exceeding certain levels as set forth below until June 24, 2022 (the “Contractual Expense Limitation”) for the Growth Equity Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund. The Adviser is entitled to the same fee for its services to each Predecessor Fund as it is for each Predecessor Fund’s corresponding Fund. In addition, the Adviser agreed to the same Contractual Expense Limitation and Voluntary Expense Limitation, as applicable, for each Predecessor Fund as with its corresponding Fund.

The table below shows the rate of each Fund’s investment advisory fee and the Adviser’s Contractual Expense Limitation, if any, for each Fund:

Prior to November 28, 2020, the Adviser had contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee for the Municipal Bond Fund by 0.01% (the “contractual fee reduction”) and had voluntarily agreed to reduce the advisory fee by an additional 0.09% (the “voluntary fee reduction”). In addition, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to reduce its fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Frost Municipal Bond Fund to the extent necessary to keep total annual Fund operating expenses (not including excluded expenses) for Institutional Class Shares and Investor Class Shares from exceeding 1.05% (the “voluntary expense limitation”). The Adviser intends to continue this voluntary expense limitation until further notice, but may discontinue all or part of these fee reductions or expense reimbursements at any time.

If at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser to make Expense Limitation reimbursements, the Adviser may retain the difference between the “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” and the aforementioned Expense Limitations to recapture all or a portion of its prior Expense Limitation reimbursements made during the preceding three year period up to the expense cap in place at the time the expenses were waived. The Adviser, however, will not be permitted to recapture any amount that is attributable to its Voluntary Fee Reduction. During the period ended January 31, 2021, the Adviser did not recapture previously waived/reimbursed fees for the Funds.

6. Investment Transactions:

The cost of security purchases and the proceeds from the sales and maturities of securities, other than short-term investments, for the period ended January 31, 2021 were as follows:

The Funds may purchase or sell investment securities in transactions with affiliated entities under procedures adopted by the Board, pursuant to Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. These transactions are effected at market rates without incurring broker commissions.

7. Federal Tax Information:

The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to distributable earnings or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. The permanent differences primarily consist of reclassification of long term capital gain distribution on REITs, market discount adjustment, amortization adjustment on premium bond sold, gains and losses on paydowns of mortgage and asset-backed securities for tax purposes, and distribution reclassification. There were no permanent difference that is credited or charged to Paid-in Capital and Distributable Earnings as of July 31, 2020.

8. Risks:

Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund): Payment of principal and interest on asset-backed securities is dependent largely on the cash flows generated by the assets backing the securities, and asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets, which raises the possibility that recoveries on repossessed collateral may not be available to support payments on these securities. Asset-backed securities are also subject to the risk that underlying borrowers will be unable to meet their obligations. To lessen the effect of failures by obligors on underlying assets to make payments, the entity administering the pool of assets may agree to ensure the receipt of payments on the underlying pool occurs in a timely fashion (“liquidity protection”). In addition, asset-backed securities may obtain insurance, such as guarantees, policies or letters of credit obtained by the issuer or sponsor from third parties, for some or all of the assets in the pool (“credit support”). Delinquency or loss more than that anticipated or failure of the credit support could adversely affect the return on an investment in such a security.

In addition, certain asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets, which raises the possibility that recoveries on repossessed collateral may not be available to support payments on these securities. For example, credit card receivables are generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a number of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which allow debtors to reduce their balances by offsetting certain amounts owed on the credit cards. Most issuers of asset-backed securities backed by automobile receivables permit the servicers of such receivables to retain possession of the underlying obligations. If the servicer were to sell these obligations to another party, there is a risk that the purchaser would acquire an interest superior to that of the holders of the related asset-backed securities. Due to the quantity of vehicles involved and requirements under state laws, asset-backed securities backed by automobile receivables may not have a proper security interest in all of the obligations backing such receivables.

Mortgage-backed securities are affected by, among other things, interest rate changes and the possibility of prepayment of the underlying mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to the risk that underlying borrowers will be unable to meet their obligations. In addition, a variety of economic, geographic, social and other factors, such as the sale of the under- lying property, refinancing or foreclosure, can cause investors to repay the loans underlying a mortgage-backed security sooner than expected. If the prepayment rates increase, the Fund may have to reinvest its principal at a rate of interest that is lower than the rate on existing mortgage-backed securities.

Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk (Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): Collateralized loan obligations are investment vehicles typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. Collateralized loan obligations are subject to the risks of substantial losses due to actual defaults by borrowers of the loans underlying the collateralized loan obligations, which will be greater during periods of economic or financial stress. Collateralized loan obligations may also lose value due to collateral defaults and disappearance of subordinate tranches, market anticipation of defaults, and investor aversion to collateralized loan obligation securities as a class. The Fund may invest in collateralized loan obligations that hold loans of uncreditworthy borrowers or in subordinate tranches of a collateralized loan obligation, which may absorb losses from underlying borrower defaults before senior tranches. Investments in such collateralized loan obligations present a greater risk of loss. In addition, collateralized loan obligations are subject to interest rate risk and credit risk.

Credit Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): The credit rating or financial condition of an issuer may affect the value of a debt security. Generally, the lower the quality rating of a security, the greater the risk that the issuer will fail to pay interest fully and return principal in a timely manner. If an issuer defaults or becomes unable to honor its financial obligations, the security may lose some or all of its value. The issuer of an investment-grade security is more likely to pay interest and repay principal than an issuer of a lower rated bond. Adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances, however, may weaken the capacity of the issuer to pay interest and repay principal.

U.S. government securities are not guaranteed against price movements due to changing interest rates. Obligations issued by some U.S. government agencies are backed by the U.S. Treasury, while others are backed solely by the ability of the agency to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the government sponsored agency’s own resources. As a result, investments in securities issued by government sponsored agencies that are not backed by the U.S. Treasury are subject to higher credit risk than those that are.

High yield, or “junk,” bonds are highly speculative securities that are usually issued by smaller less credit worthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted) companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds carry a greater degree of risk and are less likely to make payments of interest and principal. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the corporation issuing these securities influences their price and liquidity more than changes in interest rates, when compared

to investment-grade debt securities. Insufficient liquidity in the junk bond market may make it more difficult to dispose of junk bonds and may cause the Fund to experience sudden and substantial price declines. A lack of reliable, objective data or market quotations may make it more difficult to value junk bonds accurately.

Equity Risk (Growth Equity Fund): Since they purchase equity securities, the Funds are subject to the risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time. Historically, the equity markets have moved in cycles, and the value of each Fund’s equity securities may fluctuate drastically from day to day. Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities issued by such companies may suffer a decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility, which is the principal risk of investing in each Fund.

Foreign Company Risk (Growth Equity Fund, Credit Fund): Investing in foreign companies, whether through investments made in foreign markets or made through the purchase of ADRs, which are traded on U.S. exchanges and represent an ownership in a foreign security, poses additional risks since political and economic events unique to a country or region will affect those markets and their issuers. These risks will not necessarily affect the U.S. economy or similar issuers located in the United States. In addition, investments in foreign companies are generally denominated in a foreign currency. As a result, changes in the value of those currencies compared to the U.S. dollar may affect (positively or negatively) the value of a Fund’s investments. These currency movements may occur separately from, and in response to, events that do not otherwise affect the value of the security in the issuer’s home country. Securities of foreign companies may not be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and foreign companies are generally not subject to the regulatory controls imposed on U.S. issuers and, as a consequence, there is generally less publically available information about foreign securities than is available about domestic securities. Income from foreign securities owned by a Fund may be reduced by a withholding tax at the source, which tax would reduce income received from the securities comprising the Fund’s portfolio. Foreign securities may also be more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers. While ADRs provide an alternative to directly purchasing the underlying foreign securities in their respective national markets and currencies, investments in ADRs continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities.

Growth Style Risk (Growth Equity Fund): The price of equity securities rises and falls in response to many factors, including the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer of the stock, the value of its assets, general economic conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions, and market liquidity. The Fund may invest in securities of companies that the Adviser believes have superior prospects for robust and sustainable growth of revenues and earnings. These may be companies with new, limited or cyclical product lines, markets or financial resources, and the management of such companies may be dependent upon one or a few key people. The stocks of such companies can therefore be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than stocks of larger, more established companies or the stock market in general.

High Yield Bond Risk (Municipal Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): High yield, or “junk,” bonds are highly speculative securities that are usually issued by smaller less credit worthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted) companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds carry a greater degree of risk and are less likely to make payments of interest and principal. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the corporation issuing these securities influences their price and liquidity more than changes in interest rates, when compared to investment-grade debt securities. Insufficient liquidity in the junk bond market may make it more difficult to dispose of junk bonds and may cause the Fund to experience sudden and substantial price declines. A lack of reliable, objective data or market quotations may make it more difficult to value junk bonds accurately.

Interest Rate Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): As with most funds that invest in debt securities, changes in interest rates are one of the most important factors that could affect the value of your investment. Rising interest rates tend to cause the prices of debt securities (especially those with longer maturities) and the Fund’s share price to fall. Risks associated with rising interest rates are heightened given that interest rates in the U.S. are at, or near, historic lows.

The concept of duration is useful in assessing the sensitivity of a fixed income fund to interest rate movements, which are usually the main source of risk for most fixed income funds. Duration measures price volatility by estimating the change in price of a debt security for a 1% change in its yield. For example, a duration of five years means the price of a debt security will change about 5% for every 1% change in its yield. Thus, the higher the duration, the more volatile the security.

Debt securities have a stated maturity date when the issuer must repay the principal amount of the bond. Some debt securities, known as callable bonds, may repay the principal earlier than the stated maturity date. Debt securities are most likely to be called when interest rates are falling because the issuer can refinance at a lower rate.

Rising interest rates may also cause investors to pay off mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities later than anticipated, forcing the Fund to keep its money invested at lower rates. Falling interest rates, however, generally cause investors to pay off mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities earlier than expected, forcing the Fund to reinvest the money at a lower interest rate.

Mutual funds that invest in debt securities have no real maturity. Instead, they calculate their weighted average maturity. This number is an average of the effective or anticipated maturity of each debt security held by the mutual fund, with the maturity of each security weighted by the percentage of its assets of the mutual fund it represents.

Issuer Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund): The risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.

Leverage Risk (Credit Fund): The use of leverage can amplify the effects of market volatility on the Fund’s share price and may also cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it would not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations.

LIBOR Replacement Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): The elimination of the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) may adversely affect the interest rates on, and value of, certain Fund investments for which the value is tied to LIBOR. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority has announced that it intends to stop compelling or inducing banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. However, it remains unclear if LIBOR will continue to exist in its current, or a modified, form. Alternatives to LIBOR are established or in development in most major currencies, including the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Markets are slowly developing in response to these new rates. Questions around liquidity impacted by these rates, and how to appropriately adjust these rates at the time of transition, remain a concern for the Fund. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the transition away from LIBOR on the Fund until new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new products, instruments and contracts are commercially accepted.

Liquidity Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund): The risk that certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that the Fund would like. The Fund may have to accept a lower price to sell a security, sell other securities to raise cash, or give up an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Fund management or performance.

Management Risk (Each Fund): The risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by the Adviser will not pro- duce the desired results and that legislative, regulatory, or tax developments may affect the investment techniques available to the Adviser and the individual portfolio manager in connection with managing each Fund. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of a Fund will be achieved.

Market Risk (Each Fund): The risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries. In addition, the impact of any epidemic, pandemic or natural disaster, or widespread fear that such events may occur, could negatively affect the global economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial performance of individual companies and sectors, and the markets in general in significant and unforeseen ways. Any such impact could adversely affect the prices and liquidity of the securities and other instruments in which the Fund invests, which in turn could negatively impact the Fund’s performance and cause losses on your investment in the Fund. In addition, the impact of any epidemic, pandemic or natural disaster, or widespread fear that such events may occur, could negatively affect the global economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial performance of individual companies and sectors, and the markets in general in significant and unforeseen ways. Any such impact could adversely affect the prices and liquidity of the securities and other instruments in which a Fund invests, which in turn could negatively impact the Fund’s performance and cause losses on your investment in the Fund. Global health events and pandemics, such as COVID-19, have the ability to affect —quickly, drastically and substantially the economies of many nations, states, individual companies and the markets in general and can cause disruptions that cannot necessarily be foreseen. The spread of COVID-19 around the world in 2020 resulted in a substantial number of nations implementing social distancing measures, quarantines, and the shutdown of non-essential businesses and governmental services. Further, it has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international markets. The impact of the outbreak may be short term or may last for an extended period of time.

Municipal Issuers Risk (Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): There may be economic or political changes that impact the ability of municipal issuers to repay principal and to make interest payments on municipal securities. Changes in the financial condition or credit rating of municipal issuers also may adversely affect the value of each

Fund’s municipal securities. Constitutional or legislative limits on borrowing by municipal issuers may result in reduced supplies of municipal securities. Moreover, certain municipal securities are backed only by a municipal issuer’s ability to levy and collect taxes.

Prepayment and Extension Risk (Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund): Prepayment and extension risk is the risk that a loan, bond or other security might be called or otherwise converted, prepaid or redeemed before maturity. This risk is primarily associated with corporate-backed, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. If a security is converted, prepaid or redeemed before maturity, particularly during a time of declining interest rates or spreads, the Fund may not be able to invest the proceeds in securities providing as high a level of income, resulting in a reduced yield to the Fund. Conversely, as interest rates rise or spreads widen, the likelihood of prepayment decreases. The Fund may be unable to capitalize on securities with higher interest rates or wider spreads because the Fund’s investments are locked in at a lower rate for a longer period of time.

Repurchase Agreement Risk (Credit Bond Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): Under a repurchase agreement, the seller of a security to the Fund agrees to repurchase the security at a mutually agreed-upon time and price. If the seller in a repurchase agreement transaction defaults on its obligation under the agreement, the Fund may suffer delays and incur costs or lose money in exercising its rights under the agreement.

Sector Focus Risk (Growth Equity Fund, Credit Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund): Because the Fund may, from time to time, be more heavily invested in particular sectors, the value of its shares may be especially sensitive to factors and economic risks that specifically affect those sectors. As a result, the Fund’s share price may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a mutual fund that invests in a broader range of sectors.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Company Risk (Growth Equity Fund): The small- and mid-capitalization companies in which these Funds may invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In particular, investments in these small- and mid-sized companies may pose additional risks, including liquidity risk, because these companies tend to have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, small- and mid-capitalization stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies. These securities may be traded over-the-counter or listed on an exchange.

State-Specific Risk (Municipal Bond Fund): The Fund is subject to the risk that the economy of the states in which it invests, and the revenues underlying state municipal bonds, may decline. Investing primarily in a single state means that the Fund is more exposed to negative political or economic factors in that state than a fund that invests more widely.

Structured Note Risk (Credit Fund): The Fund may invest in fixed income linked structured notes. Structured notes are typically privately negotiated transactions between two or more parties. The fees associated with a structured note may lead to increased tracking error. The Fund also bears the risk that the issuer of the structured note will default. The Fund bears the risk of loss of its principal investment and periodic payments expected to be received for the duration of its investment. In addition, a liquid market may not exist for the structured notes. The lack of a liquid market may make it difficult to sell the structured notes at an acceptable price or to accurately value them.

Zero Coupon, Deferred Interest and Pay-In-Kind Bond Risk (Credit Fund): These bonds are issued at a discount from their face value because interest payments are typically postponed until maturity. Pay-in-kind securities are securities that have interest payable by the delivery of additional securities. The market prices of these securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of interest-bearing securities and are likely to respond to a greater degree to changes in interest rates than interest- bearing securities having similar maturities and credit quality.

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

10. New Accounting Pronouncement:

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update, ASU 2017-08, Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities (the “ASU”) which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium, shortening such period to the earliest call date. The ASU does not require any accounting change for debt securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Under the new standard, the Total Return Bond Fund, Credit Fund, and Municipal Bond Fund have changed the amortization period for the premium on certain purchased callable debt securities with non-contingent call features to the earliest call date. In accordance with the transition provisions of the standard, the Funds applied the amendments on a modified retrospective basis beginning with the fiscal period ended January 31, 2021. The adjustments to the cost basis of securities at the beginning of the period are as follows:

 

Total Return Bond Fund

   $ 5,755,424  

Credit Fund

     197,083  

Municipal Bond Fund

     186,081  

This change in accounting policy has been made to comply with the newly issued accounting standard and had no impact on accumulated earnings (loss) or the net asset value of the Funds.

11. Subsequent Events:

The Funds have evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no additional disclosures and/or adjustments were required to the financial statements as of January 31, 2021.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (Unaudited)

 

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from a fund’s gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of a fund’s average net assets; this percentage is known as a fund’s expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period (August 1, 2020 to January 31, 2021).

The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

Actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual starting account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period.”

Hypothetical 5% return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.

NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown do not apply to your specific investment.
