Experience and Foresight

About Calamos Investments

For over 40 years, we have helped investors like you manage and build wealth to meet long-term objectives. Because investors have different time horizons, risk tolerances and goals, we offer funds to suit a variety of asset allocation needs. Our 20 mutual funds include equity, fixed income, convertible and alternative funds. We offer US funds as well as global and international choices.

We are dedicated to helping our clients build and protect wealth. We understand when you entrust us with your assets, you also entrust us with your achievements, goals and aspirations. We believe we best honor this trust by making investment decisions guided by integrity, discipline and our conscientious research.

We believe an active, risk-conscious approach is essential for wealth creation. In our early years, we pioneered the use of convertible securities as a means to control risk in volatile markets. We followed with strategies that combine convertibles and stocks, with the aim of participating in equity market upside with potentially less volatility than an all-stock portfolio. In 1990, we introduced our first stock fund, which invests in growth companies both large and small. Across our funds, our investment process seeks to manage risk at multiple levels and draws upon our experience investing through many market cycles. In a rapidly changing environment, we believe that this active management is essential.

We are global in our perspective. We believe globalization offers tremendous opportunities for countries and companies all over the world. In our US, global and international portfolios, we are seeking to capitalize on the potential growth of the global economy.

We believe there are opportunities in all markets. Our history traces back to the 1970s, a period of significant volatility and economic concerns. Since then, we have invested through the ebb and flow of multiple markets, each with its own set of challenges. Out of this experience comes our belief that the flipside of volatility is opportunity.

Expense Overview

EXPENSE OVERVIEW

As a shareholder of a mutual fund, you incur two types of costs. You incur:

1) Transaction costs, including sales charges, or loads, on purchase payment and redemption fees.

2) Ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other fund expenses.

The examples in this report are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024. It is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs associated with investing in each mutual fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

There are two parts of each Fund's chart:

Actual

In this part of the chart, you'll see the actual expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period in each fund from November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024, the period covered by this report. This chart also shows the actual returns, after expenses, you would have earned during that time. This chart can help you estimate your own expenses. For example, if you invested $8,600 in Class A shares of the fund, simply divide $8,600 by $1,000, then multiply that result by the figure in the Actual Expenses per $1,000 row. In this example, you would multiply 8.6 times the figure.

Hypothetical

In this part of the chart, you'll see the hypothetical expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment from November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024, and the hypothetical returns, after expenses, you would have earned during that time. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has established the guidelines for this chart, including the assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which is what you'll see in the chart. Note that this chart will not help you determine your own expenses, but will help you compare expenses of the fund you own to the expenses of another fund since the information for that fund should be calculated using the same assumptions.

Please note that the expenses shown in the chart are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the chart 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 transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

CALAMOS OPEN-END FAMILY OF FUNDS SEMIANNUAL REPORT
182


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization. CALAMOS INVESTMENT TRUST, a Massachusetts business trust organized December 21, 1987 (the "Trust"), consists of twenty series, Market Neutral Income Fund, Hedged Equity Fund, Phineus Long/Short Fund, Merger Arbitrage Fund, Convertible Fund, Global Convertible Fund, Timpani Small Cap Growth Fund, Timpani SMID Growth Fund, Growth Fund, Growth and Income Fund, Dividend Growth Fund, Select Fund , International Growth Fund, Evolving World Growth Fund, Global Equity Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, International Small Cap Growth Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, High Income Opportunities Fund, and Short-Term Bond Fund (each a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds"). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the "1940 Act") as an open-end management investment company. The Trust currently offers Class A, Class C (except Timpani SMID Growth Fund and Short-Term Bond Fund), and Class I shares of each of the Funds. Class R6 shares are offered in Market Neutral Income Fund, Timpani Small Cap Growth Fund, Timpani SMID Growth Fund, Growth and Income Fund, International Growth Fund, Global Equity Fund, and International Small Cap Growth Fund only.

Significant Accounting Policies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and the Funds are each considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follow the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies. Under U.S. GAAP, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements and actual results may differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:

Effective January 24, 2023, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds and ETFs to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in a streamlined shareholder report but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments have a compliance date of July 24, 2024.

Fund Valuation. The Trust's Board of Trustees ("Board" or "Trustees"), including a majority of the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust, have designated Calamos Advisors LLC ("Calamos Advisors", or the "Advisor") to perform fair valuation determinations related to all Fund investments under the oversight of the Board. As "valuation designee" the Calamos Advisors has adopted procedures to guide the determination of the net asset value ("NAV") on any day on which the Fund's NAVs are determined. The valuation of the Funds' investments is in accordance with these procedures.

Fund securities that are traded on U.S. securities exchanges, except option securities, are valued at the official closing price, which is the last current reported sales price on its principal exchange at the time each Fund determines its NAV. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and quoted on The NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, as determined by NASDAQ, or lacking a NASDAQ Official Closing Price, the last current reported sale price on NASDAQ at the time a Fund determines its NAV. When a last sale or closing price is not available, equity securities, other than option securities, that are traded on a U.S. securities exchange and other equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations on its principal exchange in accordance with guidelines adopted by the Board. Each option security traded on a U.S. securities exchange is valued at the mid-point of the consolidated bid/ask quote for the option security, also in accordance with guidelines adopted by the Board. Each over-the-counter option that is not traded through the Options Clearing Corporation is valued either by an independent pricing agent approved by the Board or based on a quotation provided by the counterparty to such option under the ultimate supervision of the Board.

Fixed income securities, bank loans, certain convertible preferred securities, and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued by independent pricing services or by dealers or brokers who make markets in such securities. Valuations of such fixed income securities, bank loans, certain convertible preferred securities, and non-exchange traded derivatives consider yield or price of equivalent securities of comparable quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data and do not rely exclusively upon exchange or over-the-counter prices.

Trading on European and Far Eastern exchanges and over-the-counter markets is typically completed at various times before the close of business on each day on which the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open. Each security trading on these

www.calamos.com
183


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

exchanges or in over-the-counter markets may be valued utilizing a systematic fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service approved by the Board. The valuation of each security that meets certain criteria in relation to the valuation model is systematically adjusted to reflect the impact of movement in the U.S. market after the foreign markets close. Securities that do not meet the criteria, or that are principally traded in other foreign markets, are valued as of the last reported sale price at the time the respective Fund determines its NAV, or when reliable market prices or quotations are not readily available, at the mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations as of the close of the appropriate exchange or other designated time. Trading of foreign securities may not take place on every NYSE business day. In addition, trading may take place in various foreign markets on Saturdays or on other days when the NYSE is not open and on which the respective Fund's NAV is not calculated.

If the Advisor's pricing committee determines that the valuation of a security in accordance with the methods described above is not reflective of a fair value for such security, the security is valued at a fair value by the pricing committee.

Each Fund also may use fair value pricing, pursuant to guidelines adopted by Calamos Advisors, if trading in the security is halted or if the value of a security it holds is materially affected by events occurring before the Fund's pricing time but after the close of the primary market or exchange on which the security is listed. Those procedures may utilize valuations furnished by pricing services approved by the Calamos Advisors, which may be based on market transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities that are generally recognized by institutional traders, a computerized matrix system, or appraisals derived from information concerning the securities or similar securities received from recognized dealers in those securities.

When fair value pricing of securities is employed, the prices of securities used by the Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from market quotations or official closing prices. There can be no assurance that the Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio security at the price used to calculate the Fund's NAV.

Investment Transactions. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis as of April 30, 2024. Net realized gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on an identified cost basis. Interest income is recognized using the accrual method and includes accretion of original issue and market discount and amortization of premium. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the information becomes available after the ex-dividend date.

Foreign Currency Translation. Values of investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using a rate quoted by a major bank or dealer in the particular currency market, as reported by a recognized quotation dissemination service.

The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from disposition of foreign currency, the difference in the foreign exchange rates between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the ex-date or accrual date and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes (due to the changes in the exchange rate) in the value of foreign currency and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at period end.

Allocation of Expenses Among Funds and Classes. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund; certain other common expenses of the Trust, Calamos Advisors Trust, Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund, Calamos Convertible and High Income Fund, Calamos Strategic Total Return Fund, Calamos Global Total Return Fund, Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund, Calamos Dynamic Convertible and Income Fund, Calamos Long/Short Equity and Dynamic Income Trust, Calamos Antetokounmpo Sustainable Equities Trust, and Calamos ETF Trust are allocated proportionately among each Fund to which the expenses relate in relation to the net assets of each Fund or on another reasonable basis. Expenses directly attributable to a particular class of a fund in the Trust are charged directly to such class. In calculating the net asset value per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day plus current day fund share activity.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Income Taxes. No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because the Trust's policy is to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and distribute to shareholders substantially all of the Funds' taxable income and net realized gains.

Dividends and distributions paid to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. To the extent these "book/tax" differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, contingent payment debt instruments and methods of amortizing and accreting for fixed income securities. The financial statements are not adjusted for temporary differences.

The Funds recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions. A reconciliation is not provided as the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized benefits are zero, with no interim additions, reductions or settlements. Tax years 2021—2023 remain subject to examination by the U.S. and the State of Illinois tax jurisdictions for those Funds that have been in existence during that time, and for all years since inception for those Funds created subsequent to October 31, 2021.

Indemnifications. Under the Trust's organizational documents, the Trust is obligated to indemnify its officers and trustees against certain liabilities incurred by them by reason of having been an officer or trustee of the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. Each 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. Currently, the Funds' management expects the risk of material loss in connection to a potential claim to be remote.

Each of the International Growth and Global Equity Funds pays a fee based on average daily net assets of the Fund that is accrued daily and paid on a monthly basis, subject to possible adjustment based on the Fund's investment performance (since March 2006 for International Growth Fund and since February 2008 for Global Equity Fund). The performance adjustment increases or decreases the management fee, on a monthly basis, by 1/12 of 0.03% of a Fund's average daily net assets over the performance period for each full 1% increment amount by which a Fund outperforms or underperforms the benchmark index ("Index"), on an annualized basis, over the performance measurement period. The benchmark indexes are the MSCI EAFE Growth Index and the MSCI World Index for the International Growth Fund and Global Equity Fund, respectively.

The base fee is shown in the table above. The performance adjustment rate is calculated by comparing over the performance measurement period the Fund's Class A share performance to that of the respective Index. The performance measurement period commenced at the beginning of each Fund's first full month of operation (April 2005 and March 2007 for the International Growth Fund and Global Equity Fund, respectively). The first performance adjustment was applied to the advisory fee at the end of the twelfth month. Each month subsequent to the twelfth month, a new month is added to the performance measurement period until the performance measurement period includes 36 months. Thereafter, the performance measurement period consists of the most recent month plus the previous 35 months.

The performance comparison is made at the end of each month. The maximum annualized performance adjustment rate is +/- 0.30% of the Fund's average daily net assets over the performance measurement period. The performance adjustment rate is divided by twelve and multiplied by the Fund's average daily net assets over the performance measurement period, and the resulting dollar amount is then added to or subtracted from the base fee. Calamos Advisors may receive a positive

performance adjustment even if the Fund has a negative return over a performance measurement period if it otherwise outperforms the Index during that period.

Each Fund may invest in shares of the Timpani Small Cap Growth Fund ("SCG"), Timpani SMID Growth Fund ("SMID") or Short Term Bond Fund ("STBF"). Calamos Advisors has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its advisory fee charged to the Fund equal to the advisory fee paid by SCG, SMID or STBF, respectively, attributable to the Fund's investment in SCG, SMID or STBF, respectively, based on daily net assets. For the period ended April 30, 2024, the total advisory fees waived pursuant to such agreement were $493,879 for the Market Neutral Income Fund and are included in the Statements of Operations under the caption "Expense reductions".

As of April 30, 2024, the Market Neutral Income Fund had holdings of $329.4 million in STBF. During the period from November 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024, the Market Neutral Income Fund had no subscriptions or redemptions and earned $8.4 millions in dividends.

When a fund in the Calamos Family of Funds (an "Acquiring Fund") invests in shares of another fund in the Calamos Family of Funds (an "Acquired Fund"), the portion of the Acquiring Fund's advisory fee equal to the advisory fee payable to the Acquired Fund (based on average daily net assets invested) is waived.

Each Fund reimburses Calamos Advisors for a portion of compensation paid to the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer. This compensation is reported as part of the "Trustees' fees and officer compensation" expense on the Statements of Operations.

Calamos Advisors has contractually agreed to limit the annual ordinary operating expenses of each Fund as a percentage of the average daily net assets through March 1, 2025 (except as noted) as follows:

As of April 30, 2024, the Market Neutral Income Fund held 91.2% of the outstanding shares of Short Term Bond Fund.

The Trust has adopted a deferred compensation plan (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, a trustee who is not an "interested person" (as defined in the 1940 Act) and has elected to participate in the Plan (a "participating trustee") may defer receipt of all or a portion of his compensation from the Trust. The deferred compensation payable to the participating trustee is credited to the trustee's deferral account as of the business day such compensation would have been paid to the participating trustee. The value of amounts deferred for a participating trustee is determined by reference to the change in value of Class I shares of one or more funds of the Trust designated by the participant. The value of the account increases with contributions to the account or with increases in the value of the measuring shares, and the value of the account decreases with withdrawals from the account or with declines in the value of the measuring shares.

Interfund Lending Program and Joint Credit Agreement

The SEC has granted an exemptive order to the Funds permitting the Funds to participate in an interfund lending facility whereby participating Funds may directly lend to and borrow money from each other (an "Interfund Loan") for temporary purposes (e.g., to satisfy redemption requests or when a sale of securities "fails," resulting in an unanticipated cash shortfall) (the "InterFund Program"). The InterFund Program is subject to a number of conditions, which are discussed in detail in the Funds' statement of additional information. Any loan made through the InterFund Program is expected to be more beneficial to a borrowing Fund (i.e., at a lower interest rate) than borrowing from a bank and more beneficial to a lending Fund (i.e., at a higher rate of return) than an alternative short-term investment. The duration of an InterFund Loan will be limited to the time required to receive payment for securities sold, but in no event more than seven days. In addition, each InterFund Loan may be called on one business day's notice by a lending Fund and may be repaid on any day by a borrowing Fund. No Interfund Loans were made during the period.

On April 30, 2021, the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, entered into a $50,000,000 Demand Discretionary Credit Agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Credit Agreement"). Effective May 10, 2022, International Small Cap Fund was added to the Credit Agreement. On November 30, 2022, the Credit Agreement was increased to $100,000,000. Each Fund may borrow under the Credit Agreement to meet shareholder redemptions and for other lawful temporary purposes. Borrowing results in interest expense and other fees and expenses, which may increase a Fund's net expenses and reduce a Fund's return. In addition, borrowing by a Fund may create leverage by increasing a Fund's investment exposure. This will result in changes in a Fund's net asset value, either positive or negative, being greater than it would have been if the Fund had not borrowed. Administration, legal, and arrangement fees, if applicable, under the Credit Agreement are allocated among Funds based upon factors deemed relevant by the Adviser and the Board of each Fund, while fees on any amounts drawn by a Fund under the Credit Agreement are borne by that Fund. At April 30, 2024, there were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Please see the supplement to the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for more information about the Credit Agreement.

Note 5 – Short Sales

Securities sold short represent obligations to deliver the securities at a future date. A Fund may sell a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the value of that security before the delivery date. When the Fund sells a security short, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale. Accrued dividends on securities sold short are disclosed within other accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends paid on securities sold short are disclosed as an expense on the Statements of Operations. A gain, limited to the price at which a Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be realized upon the termination of a short sale.

To secure its obligation to deliver to the broker-dealer the securities sold short, a Fund must segregate an amount of cash or liquid securities with its custodian equal to any excess of the current market value of the securities sold short over any cash or liquid securities deposited as collateral with the broker in connection with the short sale (not including the proceeds of the short sale). As a result of that requirement, a Fund will not gain any leverage merely by selling short, except to the extent that it earns interest or other income or gains on the segregated cash or liquid securities while also being subject to the possibility of gain or loss from the securities sold short.

Note 6 – Derivative Instruments

Foreign Currency Risk. Each Fund may engage in portfolio hedging with respect to changes in currency exchange rates by entering into forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell currencies. A forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Risks associated with such contracts include, among other things, movement in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparty to perform.

To mitigate the counterparty risk, the Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs over-the-counter derivatives and foreign exchange contracts and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instrument's payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default (close-out netting) including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Generally, collateral is exchanged between a Fund and the counterparty and the amount of collateral due from a Fund or to a counterparty has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer has to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. When a Fund is required to post collateral under the terms of a derivatives transaction and master netting agreement, a Fund's custodian holds the collateral in a segregated account, subject to the terms of a tri-party agreement among a Fund, the custodian and the counterparty. The master netting agreement and tri-party agreement provide, in relevant part, that the counterparty may have rights to the amounts in the segregated account in the event that a Fund defaults in its obligation with respect to the derivative instrument that is subject to the collateral requirement. When a counterparty is required to post collateral under the terms of a derivatives transaction and master netting agreement, the counterparty delivers such amount to a Fund's custodian. The master netting agreement provides, in relevant part, that the Fund may have rights to such collateral in the event that the counterparty defaults in its obligation with respect to the derivative instrument that is subject to the collateral requirement. Generally before a default, neither a Fund nor the counterparty may resell, rehypothecate, or repledge any collateral that it receives.

For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A Fund's net counterparty exposure is reflected in the counterparty table below. The net unrealized gain, if any, represents the credit risk to the respective Fund on a forward foreign currency

contract. The contracts are valued daily at forward foreign exchange rates. The Funds realize a gain or loss when a position is closed or upon settlement of the contracts.

As of April 30, 2024, the Funds had outstanding forward foreign currency contracts listed on the Schedules of Investments.

Equity Risk. Each Fund may engage in option transactions and in doing so achieves similar objectives to what it would achieve through the sale or purchase of individual securities. A call option, upon payment of a premium, gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the seller of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying security, index or other instrument at the exercise price. A put option gives the purchaser of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to sell, and the seller the obligation to buy, the underlying security, index, or other instrument at the exercise price.

To seek to offset some of the risk of a potential decline in value of certain long positions, each Fund may also purchase put options on individual securities, broad-based securities indexes or certain exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). Each Fund may also seek to generate income from option premiums by writing (selling) options on a portion of the equity securities (including securities that are convertible into equity securities) in a Fund's portfolio, on broad-based securities indexes, or certain ETFs.

When a Fund purchases an option, it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an asset. When a Fund writes an option, it receives a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as a liability. The asset or liability is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires unexercised, a Fund realizes a gain or loss to the extent of the premium received or paid. If an option is exercised, the premium received or paid is recorded as an adjustment to the proceeds from the sale or the cost basis of the purchase. The difference between the premium and the amount received or paid on a closing purchase or sale transaction is also treated as a realized gain or loss. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by premiums paid. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premiums paid. Gain or loss on written options and purchased options is presented separately on the Statements of Operations as net realized gain or loss on written options and net realized gain or loss on purchased options, respectively.

Options written by each Fund do not typically give rise to counterparty credit risk since options written obligate each Fund and not the counterparty to perform. Exchange traded purchased options have minimal counterparty credit risk to each Fund since the exchange's clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default.

As of April 30, 2024, the Funds had outstanding purchased options and/or written options as listed on the Schedule of Investments.

As of April 30, 2024, the Funds had outstanding derivative contracts which are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as follows:

Note 7 – Securities Lending

The Funds may loan one or more of their securities to broker-dealers and banks through the Securities Loan Agreements. In Securities Loan Agreements, the "collateral" are the loaned securities themselves. Additionally, the set-off and netting provisions of a Securities Loan Agreement may not extend to the obligations of the counterparty's affiliates or across varying types of transactions. Any such loan must be secured by collateral in cash or cash equivalents maintained on a current basis in an amount at least equal to the value of the securities loaned by the Funds. The Funds continue to receive the equivalent of the interest or dividends paid by the issuer on the securities loaned and also receive an additional return that may be in the form of a fixed fee or a percentage of the collateral. The additional return is disclosed on a net basis as Securities lending income in the Statement of Operations. Upon receipt of cash or cash equivalent collateral, the Funds' securities lending agent invests any cash collateral into short term investments following investment guidelines approved by Calamos Advisors. The Funds record the investment of collateral as an asset and the value of the collateral as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. If the value of the invested collateral declines below the value of the collateral deposited by the borrower, the Funds will record unrealized depreciation equal to the decline in value of the invested collateral. The Funds will pay reasonable fees to persons unaffiliated with the Funds for services in arranging these loans. The Funds have the right to call

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

a loan and obtain the securities loaned at any time. The Funds do not have the right to vote the securities during the existence of the loan but could call the loan in an attempt to permit voting of the securities in certain circumstances. Upon return of the securities loaned, the cash or cash equivalent collateral will be returned to the borrower. In the event of bankruptcy or other default of the borrower, the Funds could experience both delays in liquidating the loan collateral or recovering the loaned securities and losses, including (a) possible decline in the value of the collateral or in the value of the securities loaned during the period while the Funds seek to enforce its rights thereto, (b) possible subnormal levels of income and lack of access to income during this period, and (c) the expenses of enforcing their rights. In an effort to reduce these risks, the Funds' security lending agent monitors and reports to Calamos Advisors on the creditworthiness of the firms to which a Fund lends securities.

The following table indicates the total amount of securities loaned by asset class, reconciled to the gross liability payable upon return of the securities loaned by the Funds as of April 30, 2024.

Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements

Various inputs are used to determine the value of the Funds' investments. These inputs are categorized into three broad levels as follows:

•  Level 1 – Prices are determined using inputs from unadjusted quoted prices from active markets (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange) for identical assets.

•  Level 2 – Prices are determined using significant observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices, including quoted prices of similar securities, fair value adjustments to quoted foreign securities, interest rates, credit risk, prepayment speeds, and other relevant data.

•  Level 3 – Prices reflect unobservable market inputs (including the Funds' own judgments about assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value) when observable inputs are unavailable.

Debt securities are valued based upon evaluated prices received from an independent pricing service or from a dealer or broker who makes markets in such securities. Pricing services utilize various observable market data and as such, debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2. The levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity of the Fund's investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Funds' management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements and financial highlights taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

June 20, 2024

Chicago, Illinois

We have served as the auditor of one or more Calamos investment companies since 2003.

CALAMOS OPEN-END FAMILY OF FUNDS SEMIANNUAL REPORT

Liquidity Risk Management Program

Consistent with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, Calamos Investment Trust (the "Trust"), on behalf of each series (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"), has established a liquidity risk management program to govern each Fund's approach to managing liquidity risk (the "Program"). The Program is overseen by the Liquidity Committee, a committee comprised of representatives of the Trust's investment adviser, Calamos Advisors LLC. The Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") has approved the designation of the Liquidity Committee to oversee the Program.

The Program's principal objectives include supporting the Funds' compliance with limits on investments in illiquid assets and mitigating the risk that each Fund will be unable to meet its redemption obligations in a timely manner. The Program also includes a number of elements that support the management and assessment of liquidity risk, including an annual assessment of factors that influence each Fund's liquidity and the periodic classification and re-classification of each Fund's investments into groupings that reflect the Liquidity Committee's assessment of their relative liquidity under current market conditions.

At a meeting of the Board held on December 12, 2023, the Trustees received an annual report from the Liquidity Committee regarding the design and operational effectiveness of the Program. The Liquidity Committee determined, and reported to the Board, that the Program is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and has operated adequately and effectively to manage each Fund's liquidity risk. The Liquidity Committee reported that during the period covered by the report, there were no liquidity events that impacted the Funds or their ability to timely meet redemptions without dilution to existing shareholders. Among other things, the Board noted that the Funds are not required to have a highly liquid investment minimum based on their liquidity classifications. The Board further noted that no material changes have been made to the Program since its implementation.

There can be no assurance that the Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to the Funds' prospectus for more information regarding the Funds' exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Funds may be subject.
