from May 1, 2024 to October 31, 2024 (the “current fiscal period”).
NOTE
2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
Funds are each an investment company and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services –
Investment Companies.
The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
A.
|
Security Valuation.
All equity securities, including domestic and foreign common stocks, preferred stocks, and exchange traded funds, that are traded on a
national securities exchange, except those listed on the Nasdaq Global Market®, Nasdaq Global Select Market®,
and the Nasdaq Capital Market® exchanges (collectively, “Nasdaq”) are valued at the last reported sale price
on the exchange on which the security is principally traded. Securities traded on Nasdaq will be valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing
Price (“NOCP”). If, on a particular day, an exchange-traded or Nasdaq security does not trade, then the mean between the most
recent quoted bid and asked prices will be used. All equity securities that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last
sale price in the over-the-counter market. If a non-exchange traded security does not trade on a particular day, then the mean between
the last quoted closing bid and asked price will be used. Prices denominated in foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents
at the current exchange rate, which approximates fair value. |
Investments
in mutual funds, including money market funds, are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) per share.

Exchange
traded options are valued at the composite mean price, which calculates the mean of the highest bid price and lowest asked price across
the exchanges where the option is principally traded. On the last trading day prior to expiration, expiring options will be priced at
intrinsic value.
Debt
securities, including short-term debt instruments having a maturity of less than 60 days, are valued in accordance with prices provided
by a pricing service. Pricing services may use various valuation methodologies such as the mean between the bid and asked prices, matrix
pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotation.
Securities
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their respective fair values in accordance with pricing procedures adopted
by the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”). When a security is “fair valued,” consideration is given
to the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, including a review of various factors set forth in the pricing procedures
adopted by the Board. The use of fair value pricing by the Funds may cause the NAV of their shares to differ significantly from the NAV
that would be calculated without regard to such considerations.
As
described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes
a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:
Level 1 –
|
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
Level 2 –
|
Observable inputs other than quoted prices
included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted
prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk,
yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
Level 3 –
|
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability,
to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market
participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and would be based on the best information available. |
The
availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example,
the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics
particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the
market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value
is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The
inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes,
the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest
level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Equity-Linked
Notes (“ELNs”). Aptus Enhanced Yield ETF, Aptus International Enhanced Yield ETF, and Aptus Large Cap Enhanced Yield
ETF invested in ELNs. These are hybrid derivative-type instruments that are specially designed to combine the characteristics of one or
more reference securities and a related equity derivative, such as a put or call option, in a single note form. ELNs are unsecured debt
obligations of an issuer and may not be publicly listed or traded on an exchange. ELNs are valued daily by a pricing service, based on
the terms and underlying securities of the ELN, which have been provided by the Adviser. These notes have a coupon which is accrued and
recorded as Interest income on the Statements of Operations. Changes in the |

value
of ELNs are recorded as Change in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the Statements of Operations. A Fund realizes a gain
or loss when an ELN is sold or matures, which is recorded as Net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations.
C.
|
Federal Income
Taxes. The Funds’ policy is to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net capital gains
to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. The Funds plan to file U.S. Federal and applicable state and
local tax returns. |
Each
Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained. Management
has analyzed each Fund’s uncertain tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded
related to uncertain tax positions. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts
of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next 12 months. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized
tax benefits on uncertain tax positions as income tax expenses in the Statements of Operations. During the current fiscal period, the
Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
D.
|
Security Transactions
and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales
of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends
included in dividend income or separately disclosed, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the security received. Withholdings taxes
on foreign dividends, if any, have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable tax rules and
regulations. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized
using the effective yield method. |
Distributions
received from the Funds’ investments in real estate investment Trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income,
net capital gain, or a return of capital. The proper characterization of REIT distributions is generally not known until after the end
of each calendar year. As such, the Funds must use estimates in reporting the character of their income and distributions received during
the current calendar year for financial statement purposes. The actual character of distributions to the Funds’ shareholders will
be reflected on the Form 1099 received by shareholders after the end of the calendar year. Due to the nature of REIT investments,
a portion of the distributions received by the Funds’ shareholders may represent a return of capital.
E.
|
Distributions
to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income are declared and paid at least annually. Distributions
to shareholders from net realized gains are declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
|
F.
|
Use of Estimates.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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,
as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
G.
|
Share Valuation.
The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash and other
assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of outstanding shares for each Fund, rounded
to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)
is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per share of each Fund is equal to each Fund’s NAV per share. |
H.
|
Guarantees
and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general
indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that
may be against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. |

Reclassification
of Capital Accounts. U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified
between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share. |
The
permanent differences primarily relate to differing book and tax treatment for redemptions in-kind. For the fiscal year/period ended April 30,
2024, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

The
difference between the cost basis for financial statement and federal income tax purposes was primarily due to the tax deferral of losses
from wash sales and the mark-to-market on open Section 1256 options contracts. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on written
equity options is included in gross tax unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for Aptus Collared Investment Opportunity
ETF. There was no difference between the cost basis for financial statement and federal income tax purposes for Aptus Enhanced Yield ETF.
A
regulated investment company may elect for any taxable year to treat any portion of any qualified late year loss as arising on the first
day of the next taxable year. Qualified late year losses are certain capital and ordinary losses which occur during the portion of the
Funds’ taxable year subsequent to October 31 and December 31, respectively. At April 30, 2024, the Funds did not
elect to defer any post-October capital losses or late-year ordinary losses.
As
of April 30, 2024, the Funds had the following capital loss carryforwards with no expiration date:

NOTE
7 – ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES ABOUT DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The
following disclosures provide information on the Funds’ use of derivatives. The location and value of these instruments on the Statements
of Assets and Liabilities and the realized gains and losses and changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the Statements
of Operations are included in the following tables.
The
Funds may purchase put options on individual stocks, on an index tracking a portfolio of U.S. equity securities, or on one or more other
ETFs that principally invest in U.S. equity securities, purchase call options on the Cboe Volatility Index®, or utilize
a combination of purchased and written (sold) put options (known as a “spread”) to limit the Funds’ exposure to equity
market declines. The Funds may write (sell) call options on individual stocks, on an index tracking a portfolio of U.S. equity securities,
or on one or more other ETFs that principally invest in U.S. equity securities, or utilize a combination of purchased and written (sold)
call options (spread) to generate premium from such options.
Aptus
Collared Investment Opportunity ETF’s options collar strategy typically consists of two components: (i) selling covered call options
on up to 100% of the equity securities held by the Fund to generate premium from such options, while (ii) simultaneously reinvesting a
portion of such premium to buy put options on the same underlying equity securities, a U.S. equity ETF, or the U.S. Equity Index to “hedge”
or mitigate the downside risk associated with owning equity securities. The Fund seeks to generate income from the combination of dividends
received from the equity securities held by the Fund and premiums received from the sale of options. Additionally, the Fund may purchase
put options or utilize a combination of purchased and written (sold) put options (known as a “spread”) on one or more equity
securities, a U.S. equity ETF, or a U.S. Equity Index to “hedge” or mitigate the downside risk associated with owning equity
securities.
Aptus
Defined Risk ETF’s Equity Strategy seeks exposure to small-, mid-, and large-capitalization U.S. stocks by purchasing exchange-listed
call options on individual stocks or depositary receipts (the “Underlying Individual Equities”), on one or more equity indexes,
on one or more other ETFs that principally invest in U.S. equity securities (the “Underlying Equity ETFs”), or on one or more
other U.S. fixed-income ETFs that provide exposure to either high yield or investment grade bonds (the “Underlying Bond ETFs”)
(each, a “reference asset”). The Fund may utilize a combination of purchased and written (sold) call options (known as a “spread).
Additionally, Underlying Equity ETFs, Underlying Bond ETFs, or equity indexes may be selected in lieu of or in addition to Underlying
Individual Equities to adjust the balance of the Fund’s exposure across industries or to maintain the Fund’s equity exposure
when the Adviser believes they present a better risk profile than Underlying Individual Equities. The Adviser may utilize a combination
of purchased and written (sold) put or call options on the Cboe Volatility Index® (the “VIX® Index”).
The VIX Index reflects a calculation designed to produce a measure of constant, 30-day expected volatility of the U.S. stock market, derived
from real-time, mid-quote prices of S&P 500® Index call and put options. The Adviser generally expects to invest less
than 1% of the Fund’s net assets in VIX Index call and put options at the time of investment.
Aptus
Drawdown Managed Equity ETF seeks to limit the Fund’s exposure to equity market declines primarily by purchasing exchange-listed
put options on individual equity securities or on one or more equity indexes or ETFs (each, a “reference asset”) that track
a portfolio of U.S. equity securities (“Equity Puts”). In addition to purchasing Equity Puts, the Adviser may write (sell)
Equity Puts. The Adviser also may purchase or write (sell) exchange-listed call options on individual equity securities or on one or more
equity indexes or ETFs (each, a “reference asset”) that track a portfolio
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Aptus
ETFs
Notes
to Financial Statements
October

of
U.S. equity securities (“Equity Calls”). In addition to or in lieu of such Equity Puts or Equity Calls, the Adviser may utilize
a combination of purchased and written (sold) put or call options (known as a “spread”) on individual equity securities, one
or more equity indexes or ETFs, or the Cboe Volatility Index® (the “VIX® Index”). The VIX
Index reflects a calculation designed to produce a measure of constant, 30-day expected volatility of the U.S. stock market, derived from
real-time, mid-quote prices of S&P 500® Index call and put options. The Adviser generally expects to invest less than
1% of the Fund’s net assets in VIX Index call options at the time of investment.
When
the Funds purchase a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium paid is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as
an investment and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the value of the option. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date
or if the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If the Funds exercise a call option, the cost of the
security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. If the Funds exercise a put option, a gain or loss is realized from the
sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such a sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. The risk associated with
purchasing options is limited to the loss of the premium paid.
A
written (sold) call option gives the seller the obligation to sell shares of the underlying asset at a specified price (“strike
price”) at a specified date (“expiration date”). The writer (seller) of the call option receives an amount (premium)
for writing (selling) the option. In the event the underlying asset appreciates above the strike price as of the expiration date, the
writer (seller) of the call option will have to pay the difference between the value of the underlying asset and the strike price (which
loss is offset by the premium initially received), and in the event the underlying asset declines in value, the call option may end up
worthless and the writer (seller) of the call option retains the premium.
A
written (sold) put option gives the seller the obligation to buy shares of the underlying asset at a specified price (“strike price”)
at a specified date (“expiration date”). The writer (seller) of the put option receives an amount (premium) for writing (selling)
the option. In the event the underlying asset depreciates below the strike price as of the expiration date, the writer (seller) of the
put option pays the difference between the value of the underlying asset and the strike price (which loss is offset by the premium initially
received), and in the event the underlying asset appreciates in value, the put option may end up worthless and the writer (seller) of
the call option retains the premium.
When
the Funds write an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted
to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Funds
on the expiration date as realized gains from options written. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing
purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or, if the premium is less than the amount
paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from
the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss. The Funds, as a writer of an option,
bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
For
financial statement purposes, cash held at the broker for options is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as deposits
at broker for written options. Broker interest received and paid by the Funds, if any, is included as interest income and expense, respectively,
in the Statements of Operations. As collateral for its written options, the Aptus Drawdown Managed Equity ETF maintains segregated assets
consisting of cash, cash equivalents, or liquid securities (e.g. Permissible Assets). Segregated cash is included as restricted cash for
options in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Adviser may earmark or instruct the Fund’s custodian to segregate Permissible
Assets in an amount at least equal to the market value, calculated on a daily basis, of the written options. Alternatively, a written
call option contract can be “covered” through (a) ownership of the underlying instruments or (b) ownership of an option on
such instruments at an exercise price equal to or lower than the exercise price of the short option, and a written put option contract
can be “covered” (a) through ownership of a put option with an exercise price at least equal to the Fund’s delivery
or purchase obligation or (b) through selling short the underlying instrument at a price at least equal to the Fund’s purchase obligation.

Due
to the absence of a master netting agreement related to the Funds’ participation in purchasing and writing options, no additional
offsetting disclosures have been made on behalf of the Funds.
As
the Funds value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statements of Operations, they do not
qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Funds’ investments in derivatives may
represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of these disclosures.

NOTE
8 – SHARE TRANSACTIONS
Shares
of the Funds are listed and traded on the Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe”). Market prices for the shares may be different
from their NAV. The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV generally in large blocks of shares, called “Creation
Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created,
shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units,
shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Creation Units may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions
(“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing
process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company
participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors do not qualify as
Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem
the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a
broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
The
Funds each currently offer one class of shares, which has no front-end sales load, no deferred sales charge, and no redemption fee. A
fixed transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or sale of Creation Units.
The standard fixed transaction fee for the Funds is $300, each payable to the Custodian. The fixed creation fee may be waived on certain
orders if the Funds’ Custodian has determined to waive some or all of the costs associated with the order or another party, such
as the Adviser, has agreed to pay such fee. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation
Units of up to a maximum of 2% as a percentage of the value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees are imposed
to compensate the Funds for the transaction costs associated with the cash transactions fees. Variable fees received by each Fund, if
any, are displayed in the Capital Share Transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
NOTE
9 – RISKS
Concentration
Risk. To the extent that the Funds invest more heavily in particular industries or sectors of the economy,
their performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those industries or sectors.
Other
Investment Companies Risk. The risks of Aptus Defined Risk ETF and Aptus International Enhanced Yield
ETF investing in investment companies typically reflect the risks of the types of instruments in which the investment companies invest.
By investing in another investment company, each Fund becomes a shareholder of that investment company and bears its proportionate share
of the fees and expenses of the other investment company. The Funds may be subject to statutory limits with respect to the amount they
can invest in other ETFs, which may adversely affect the Funds’ ability to achieve their investment objectives.
